I do want to slowly break out of certain assumptions of me like of the kind of art and editing I can and can't do, but I mean, I have to actually prove that, so that's more on me.
Even for just small things, I'm grateful for everyone who's hired me for any amount of freelance work. Getting work in indie communities is like all word of mouth so it can be hard to come by, even with how little I charge for things.
MY APPOINTMENT FOR GETTING BACK ON TESTOSTERONE IS IN 4 DAYS LESGOOOOO
I'm...gonna have to start taking more freelance work. I'm okay financially but affording dental care and transition care is gonna be another hill to climb..
I was in tears earlier today as i fear this will most likely wipe me out financially. I know i should have made this post a month earlier. I was struggling so hard with asking for help. This is becoming dire, as the date of surgery is in about less than a month💜
I would appreciate a share!
FYI to trans people:
HRT Cafe has apparently shut down after too much media attention.
Please, take advice from an old trans woman:
Take those discussions underground. All of them. Anything that discusses what we need to survive & where to get it. Word of mouth and private forums only!

In dreams, he walks with her.
In dreams, he talks with her.
![“If you don’t open up, I’ll give you a Chelsea smile. You won’t like that much.”
I plead with my eyes, with everything I have. All the pathos I can summon. And it’s not an act. It’s real. It’s real.
[Redacted] slices half an inch into the right corner of my lip. It hurts it hurtsithurts. My skin feels loose in a way that’s not good. It’s no good.
“Please.” Speaking hurts, but the word spills from me, liquid to blend with my tears. I clamp my eyes closed. I can’t look. “Please. Please don’t. Don’t.” Every word is a stutter, my teeth clacking together, my chest heaving.
“Hold still, baby.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6hyreanhalpev6wrfx7e7xb6/bafkreihgkw6civbh6w6r5r5cvsiskz2wxiesr25a3pjayuvubaqhocmi34)

Don't ignore us🚨🚨🚨
Two days ago, we narrowly escaped death in Gaza when a building next to our camp was bombed. Our tent was destroyed, and we are now homeless without a tent.
We urgently need €100 to buy a tent😭

It's very hard to keep this TVoaH art from you as I do it, but I think it'll be more awesome when I drop the book and more of a surprise for you all
I had to admit this morning that my almost 10 yr old Kindle is headed for its demise. Unfortunately, I need it for eArcs 😭
So help me buy a new Kindle!
Dark money groups are paying influencers to spread attacks about our campaign.
Voters deserve to know who is trying to manipulate our election.
I have so many things on my plate but would anyone be interested in an itchio jam dedicated to trans masculine protagonists. Trying to figure out the best way to word "I am specifically looking for trans masc guys who top/are not forced to exclusively bottom" and tbh I might go evil with the rules
We are living through very difficult days…
My father is sick and urgently needs treatment.
Hunger is exhausting my family every single day.
The rain has flooded our tent, and we no longer have safe shelter.
Please, help us in any way you can — our lives are at stake. 🙏

about confronting this problem, going after trans people (men or women) and arguing that they are inherently more misogynistic (internally or externally) is just a way to deflect blame from the patriarchal society we live in that enforces misogyny into everyone's worldview.
to have, nor is it one that we often have space for, because it gets twisted into "trans men are inherently misogynistic" when the simple truth is that everyone is taught to hate women/womanhood/femininity and see it as weak, even women, hence why women can perpetuate it as well. And if we care-
I'm not saying that every detrans person is mistaken or misled, that's not my place, just that detransing trans people is a TERF tactic and this rhetoric is part of that method. I'd argue that yeah, internalized misogyny affects transmasc people in particular ways and that's not an easy conversation
What everyone and their grandma forgets when talking about this is that EVERYONE has internalized misogyny, and treating it as something "especially prevalent" in transmasculine people is part of how TERFS target transmascs and manipulate them into "being women again"
and sure-
re: the last article I reposted (I did not want to attach this discussion to it) The constant narrative of "internalized misogyny in trans men" is very insidious, and I think the article I shared is good, and is mostly quoting the detrans people when discussing this, but I wanted to add to it-
