I've been working on a resource for folks who need tips on surviving on a budget, but it's tricky to cover everything. If you might find this useful, feel free to just click through, but I'd also love to hear any tips anyone has - so do reply if you have one, even if you think it's a niche idea!
Budget Survival | Notion
This documentation aims to be a one-stop-shop for everyone impacted by horrible economic circumstances, whether it’s due to inflation, dictators defunding your welfare, or a terrible job market.

by your 30s you should have at least 3 or 4 internet friends with tastes in weird cartoon pornography that don't overlap with your tastes in weird cartoon pornography

I've spent the entire twelve years of being out trying to ruin boobs for Glinner specifically. Glad my hard work has paid off.
Damn how y'all let trans people ruin boobs for you? Sounds like a personal problem. Boobs are the gift that keeps on giving.

Every trans person who says they'd rather not be socially murdered is an "activist."

Every blood-mouthed ghoul demanding our eradication is a "concerned citizen just asking questions."
God I'm so sick of how "Activist" is used to un-person trans people.

The big story should have been that Elon Musk incentivized people in other countries to sell racism to North Americans.

And eventually turned on locations which resulted in hyper-nationalism of its users.

This nonce got in a child's face and started screaming at her about his porn interests and that wasn't considered harassment by the court

Harassment isn't harassment if your target is trans.

Inciting violence isn't inciting violence if your target is trans.

Trans people are not protected by law in this country.

i still think it's incredibly telling of the wider minecraft community that one of the biggest mods (>100m downloads on MR+CF) just has a clear reference to the holocaust in its description. it literally refers to itself as "the final solution". no one has even noticed for 3 years

"HRT shouldn't be easily available because it can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing."

Go into Walmart and go down every aisle and take note of how many easily available things could fuck you up if you don't know what you're doing. I guarantee you it's a lot.

But wtf does it mean when the most celebrated among "us" consistently get outed as fakes.

Like at this point it sort of seems like y'all fucking hate us, like you've got a subconscious lock on frauds because it's just more comfortable staring into a mirror with feathers hung from it.

Sure! Mastercard, Visa, Stripe + Paypal are further restricting what kinds of perfectly legal adult content you can buy through their processor (they cracked down on itchio and steam over the summer, not to mention Patreon a few years ago). We're tired of them acting like dictators instead of tools.
I don’t happen to have a Mastercard, but can you remind me why I’d be upset with them if I did?

A very, very important peer-reviewed empirical study published in the academic journal Pediatrics shows that hormone treatment of young trans people decreases suicidality very significantly.

Doubtless it will be ignored by Simonoff et al, who are not even measuring this in the “Pathways” study.

Every day, 137 women and girls are killed by intimate partners or family members internationally, according to the UN.

Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, but the number killed intentionally remains unchanged.
