I'd like to extend my middle finger out to everyone that told me I was overreacting back in 2024.
"Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts recently endorsed taking care away from transgender adults, saying in an episode of the PBD podcast that the organization is currently "running the numbers" on the supposed correlation between gender-affirming surgeries and violence. His proposed solution? "You outlaw it." "

Why is violence pathologized for trans people but individualized for cis men?

What does it mean to be "Treated like a human"?
A few days ago I was responding to comments on 196 and someone said to me that I should make my species identity more clear if I want to be treated as a human. What does that mean exactly? Maybe I'm way overthinking it, it just seems weird.
I mean for me all that really matters is that others treat me with dignity and respect. That doesn't seem like being "treated like a human" to me, that just seems like the natural way one should treat someone human or otherwise.
I apologize if I'm ignorant or if I'm just overthinking things. I'm genuinely asking out of curiosity and a desire to learn and understand better.

Hey all 
Firstly, apologies for writing this post 😔
We're glad that you are getting or were able to get the gender-affirming surgeries that you need(ed). Everybody should have access to the healthcare that they need.
Nonetheless, please may we kindly ask you to remember to add content warnings to your posts? 🥺
We're not asking you to hide your joy, your excitement, your gender euphoria, your experiences, or anything like that: we're asking you to please remember that many of us cannot get the gender-affirming surgeries that they need and may no realistic prospects of ever being able to do so 😞
Adding a CW and using standard phrases, just like you would for other topics like politics, gives folks the option of viewing or not viewing your posts.
And no: using a euphemistic way to describe it (e.g., "Taco Tuesday") instead of adding a CW doesn't make it any less potentially-triggering to some of us who know what the euphemism means.
We're SO sorry for asking this.
We've added SO many bleeping filters to try to block everything out, but posts are still finding their way through 😭
We're genuinely SO sorry that we cannot celebrate your happiness and joy right now.
We're genuinely SO sorry that it hurts us to see others getting what they need, when we cannot even get the most basic surgical options.
We're sorry again that we've had to write this post, because we don't want to bring down anybody else's joy.
And we're sorry that we cannot be there for you if you are asking for help in relation to anything related to such matters.
Thank you

Nothing in 96hrs PLEASE HELP
URGENT February Mutual Aid (442/1200) food/med/heat insecurity
We need to hit $800 total by 2/23 for doctors
It's February and that means more expenses. My family is living on a single disability check which barely covers utilities, and being poor, disabled, queer, biracial, immunocompromised, and lots of other things that society frowns upon is very expensive. Even beyond that, the fascists have their nails dug in pretty deep here in the US south, and it's a scary place to be.
We need $800 for grocery, clinic, medical supplies, rx, and $400 to replace our dead water heater because going through that freeze without running hot water was awful, to put it mildly.
You can help!
Paypal is the simplest and fastest way top help out.
Patreon can get you access to cool stuff, like pixel art and music - Our PNGtuber models are even on there for free. You'll also get a shoutout on every stream we do (If you don't want this, send us a message when you subscribe).
Thank you for reading, please give if you can (even a couple of dollars helps!), and boost. You're saving our lives.

$358 more needed NOW
and the rest (400) by end of month
It's the middle of February and that means more urgent expenses. My family is living on a single disability check which barely covers utilities, and being poor, disabled, queer, biracial, immunocompromised, and lots of other things that society frowns upon is very expensive.

I've also been posting semi-regular updates on the new PNGTuber system I'm slowly working on. It's rad.
