The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

The fact that so much of Lowell turned out for the No King's protest but then just let the incumbents who have either been seen with Trump or verbally attacked citizens win their seats again is a bummer. Idk if it's ignorance or they didn't turn out to vote.

If you're a young person, find your people are try stuff. You don't know how it will turn out AND THAT'S A GOOD THING. Failure is a natural part of living. Not something to be scared of. Try shit. Don't sit back and throw stones at others who are trying shit.

You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

You can tell I am too bc I didn't know you couldn't edit posts and now there's a weird link from a mistyping I did in my last skeet.

As I said, joy is hard to come by these days so we gotta make/take it where we can. You've been through enough this year. Also, you're notably old.

I'm so sick of discourse from supposed allies about where trans people went wrong.

Where we "went wrong" is that billionaires spent unimaginably large sums to attack us repeatedly and major media outlets have spent a decade piling on.

Weird, it should've sent to both of you. I "removed" you from the list now tho since Alex responded for you both.

OK lmao

I miss y'all too! Did you get the invite for my birthday?

You have Venmo, right?

Gentle reminder that polls don't gauge what is ethical or just. A poll about how "most Americans" feel about trans healthcare is simply a way to understand how effective media and religious campaigns have been in their transphobia.

Remember to save your signs (and any others you find thrown away) from both protests and counter protests. Your local archive would LOVE to have them (and if you're in the South we would love to have them). Make sure history remembers!

If we want to shut down the regime, we also need to support each other.

Come for the art and music of the resistance. Stay to learn how we can use nonviolent tactics to make sure the regime hurts with us.

And one final thought: Ozzy going out after giving an emotional final performance that raised a ton of money for charity is more spiritually uplifting and did more genuine good than anything any televangelist and religious grifter who railed against him ever did combined.

Fox Mulder from X-Files saying “Hey, you got to stay alive if you want to stick it to the government”

“If you die, you let them off the hook.”

Needed this reminder today.

Y'all should take this opportunity to donate to @qtlibrary.org

Didn't make the cut but I'm still gonna submit work in the future (and to other publications) and you should still check out Bloodletter!

Bodily autonomy is a human right.

Transness isn't a disease that needs to be cured. We're a normal part of the spectrum that is the human condition. And we deserve to have the final say over our own bodies - not just because of the harm if we don't, but because they belong to us and not the state.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Thank you so much!

Bloodletter Magazine Bloodletter is a feminist horror magazine showcasing personal and analytical perspectives of the horrific by women, trans, and non-binary writers.

Just submitted 3 poems to Bloodletter Mag's "Trans Voices in Horror" special issue! Fingers crossed that I get accepted. You should check it out regardless: bloodlettermag.com

Shout out to @anmlymag.bsky.social for printing my first published poem, "Change" as part of "It's a Good Day to Be Trans" back in April 2023 for issue #36. Can't wait to start submitting stuff again! anmly.org/ap36/isaac-c...

Attending the Mass Poetry Festival helped me find my drive to start writing and submitting again! If you have any recommendations of Substacks, Instagram, email lists, books, podcasts, etc send 'em to me!

My doctor changed my diagnosis to "Endocrine Disorder" in November without me asking--because he saw the writing on the wall.

Ask your doctors to do the same--Just to protect your access to life-saving medication.
