Moving in a week and having trouble making ends meet with limited available time and energy. Still pending some dentistry work too, now have three broken teeth in need of attention that I haven't been able to get to

cis people,

you have to show up. right now. we do not have the numbers, but you do.

we are talking about suicide. that's what this headline is.

taking away HRT will increase trans suicides. i and so many others are dead without it.

don't let us die without trying to keep us alive. call, please.

It really is astonishing how much self-hatred estrogen is ever so slowly erasing from my face, like, genuinely and sincerely could not have fewer regrets

So happy for him, but man first ever?? in 2025???

'Just Kill 'Em': Fox Host Makes Shocking Comment On Homeless People "Fox and Friends" co-host Brian Kilmeade made a jaw-dropping remark while discussing homelessness and mental health.

In a shocking on-air moment, a “Fox and Friends” co-host said homeless people suffering from mental health issues who refuse help should be killed

so alienating sometimes when you're trans woman who's not really a gamer or anime nerd

My good bitches, they are probably years away from directly killing us and people are already dying. A little help before the camps are actually open wouldn't go amiss.

Genuinely have no idea how much longer I can take literally every trans person around me being on the edge of falling apart - and every now and again losing someone I can't help keep together - while the cis people just kinda nod and assume we're all being hysterical.

Trump Admin Revokes Security Clearances of These Officials “All personnel are reminded that holding a clearance is a privilege, not a right," read a memo announcing the action.

I was initially skeptical of the "Russian election interference" stuff since it sounded like a misguided attempt to push blame on some outside entity for homegrown fascism, but in doing this the current administration sure do make themselves sound guilty as fuck huh

DHS Secretary Noem says entire southern border wall will be painted black to stop people from climbing it Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says the entire southern border wall with Mexico is being painted black to deter illegal immigration, at President Trump's request.

America behaving like a satirical portrayal of the evil empire it not-so-secretly is may not be something entirely new, per se, but it does continue to boggle the mind how relentlessly horrible and transparent it's been recently

"TERRIBLE THINGS ARE HAPPENING OUTSIDE. AT ANYTIME OF NIGHT AND DAY POOR HELPLESS PEOPLE ARE BEING DRAGGED OUT OF THEIR HOMES"

I think about this post several times a week

Just got his blood test results back and it's looking like this is it. There's nothing else we can do. Three more hours. I'll miss him...

Another update: he's seemingly completely lost his sight, and while our efforts have been helping keep him as happy and comfortable as possible, he's still declining and we can't afford to do much more for him in current circumstances...

[6] L To Calvisius. Thave been spending all my time here among my tablets and books as quietly as I could wish. "How is that possible," you ask, "in Rome?" Well, the Circensian games have been on, and that is a kind of spectacle which has not the slightest attraction for me. There is no novelty, no variety in it, nothing which one wants to see twice. Hence I am the more amazed that so many thousands of men * should be eager, like a pack of children, to see horses running time after time, and the charioteers bending over their cars. There might be some reason for their enthusiasm if it was the speed of the hors or the skill of the drivers that was the attraction, but it is the racing-colours which they favour, and the racing-colours that fire their love. If, in the middle of the course and during the race itself, the colours were to be changed, their enthusiasm and partisanship would change with them, and they would suddenly desert the drivers and the horses, whom they recognise afar and whose names they shout aloud. Such is the influence and authority vested i one cheap tunic, I don't say with the common crowd, - for that is even cheaper than the tunic, - but with certain men of position; and when I consider that they can sit for so long without growing tired, looking on at such a fruitless, cheerless, and tedious sport, I really feel a sort of pleasure in the thought that what they take delight in has no charm for me. Thus it is that I have been only too glad to pass my leisure time among my books during the race-meeting, while others have been wasting their days in the most idle occupations. Farewell.

[first lines Jerry: Loyalty to any one sports team is pretty hard to justify. Because the players are always changing, the team can move to another city. You're actually rooting for the clothes when you get right down to it. I mean, you are standing and cheering and yelling for your clothes to beat the clothes from another city. Fans will be so in love with a player, but if he goes to another team, they boo him. This is the same human being in a different shirt. They hate him now. "Boo! Different shirt. Booooo."

Pliny the Younger apparently thought sports were very stupid but it's funny that it's for the exact reason laid out in Seinfeld s6e12 ("The Label Maker")

With at least some facets of the illness retreating temporarily, went out to a thrift shop yesterday to pick up the hot new sound of the summer

Palestinian journalist and community leader Odeh Hathalin, who worked on the Oscar-winning documentary 'NO OTHER LAND,' has been killed by an Israeli settler.

My third most controversial media opinion is that the Willow TV series was in fact about as good as the original movie (a messily delightful 7/10 if ever there was one) and didn't deserve to get axed and expunged from history

Have been truly spectacularly ill for the past week, like, barely-croaking voice, feverishly staring at the wall, barely able to think levels of ill

We don't even know with any certainty how many trans women were murdered in a single act of imperialist brutality by the IDF to make some kind of rhetorical point but the real transmisogyny is people being mean to some dopey liberal YouTuber online for acting as an apologist for this shit.

It doesn't matter if they are ever coming for you.

It was always ever already too much that they were coming for anyone.

i can't even imagine the freakout if like mamdani or ilhan omar had ever refered to lenders as "shylocks." but unlike them, trump actually has a very long history of making disparaging remarks about jews

I'm really glad the anti-trans Medicaid exclusions were removed from Trump's billionaire bailout but a bill that still kicks 20 million (largely working class) people off their health insurance is still going to have a disastrous impact including and especially on trans people. Kill the bill.

Today is a real bad day for trans folks. Lots of us are already struggling under the constant mental and emotional strain of being the target of international hate campaigns for years now, and it ain't getting easier

Support us, now more than ever. Emotionally, financially, politically. We need it

there’s a certain strain of ultra-literal leftist who dismisses all art on principle for not being a literal gun aimed at a literal tyrant, they’re as uselessly pedantic as far rightists who think role playing games are literal satanic ritual, and it’s ultimately the same species of fallacy

Ethnic cleansing.

anyone else frayed round the edges and sinking under the surface of something bigger than you can see lately or is that just me
