JAYE YOU IDIOT

@localdorkincombatboots

Hey yall im Jaye! 24yo, they/them I draw and reblog a bunch of random stuff and I hope you have an amazing day friend! DNI: terf, swerf, transmed, racist, exclusionist, prolife, radfem, antimask, antivax, asshole, etc. Please feel free to ask me to tag anything!

Please help my family

I've been trying desperately to not have to make another one of these posts but unfortunately I'm here to ask for help again.

Im a young autistic and queer mom struggling to take care of the 2 toddlers I have with my boyfriend who has stage 3 stomach cancer and his mother who is disabled. I've been working as hard and as much as I can but with my boyfriend's health continuing to decline and get closer to actively dying it just keeps getting harder and harder.

We've been without a car for over a year now and I've had to walk to and from the grocery store a couple miles away just to get what we need for the day (since that's all I can carry) and then to and from work and the constant nonstop strain is starting to cause my body to fail.

Our electric bill and our rent is due next week and we desperately need help covering them. Our electric bill is $174 and out rent is $1025. Im trying to bust my ass to earn as much as I can but my job is not bringing in enough money quick enough to cover it all myself.

Please, if you can help

If you can't help, please reblog this so that some one who can help might see this, and either way thank you for your time.

“available with premium subscription” “will be removed on the 31st” “available free with ads” “rent 4.99 buy 20.00″ “not available in your country” “not available on this device” what if every streaming service fucking killed itself and films ran around their fields free and organic in their natural state

in every workplace there should be a secret button you can press and if everyone presses it the workweek immediately ends and you can go outside and play instead of sending email

ok i made this post and this afternoon our server locked us out and i spent the rest of the day shooting the shit with my coworkers outside in perfect spring weather. i do believe in magic but mostly i believe in the secret button

Yall do NOT hop on a cosmetic surgery hate train during an ongoing campaign against trans Healthcare I am fucking begging

My tits didn't smaller themselves, fuckos. Either you believe in bodily autonomy or you fucking don't.

The sacred bond between trans people who've had plastics and cis people who have had plastics is fucking sacred and I will not tolerate anybody in the queer community trash-talking plastics no matter what it is and who is getting them and for what reason!!!

I want there to not be a line between 'costmetic' and 'necessary'. If there's a line, then insurance companies and whoever-the-fuck-else will decide everything is 'cosmetic'. That happened to me with getting my jaw rebuilt when I was A CHILD. 'oh it's cosmetic' My insurance wrangler lady and the surgeon had to write SEVERAL LETTERS to the damn insurance company detailing out just how graphically I would DIE if I did not get my face rebuilt before I was 18! If 'we won't pay for cosmetic plastics only necessary ones' wasn't a thing, that wouldn't have had to fucking happen!

So you know what? I don't want to hear the word 'cosmetic' out of anyone's mouth. it's ALL just plastics. And all plastics are still 100% the person's choice to get, I don't care what the reason is, all reasons are your business and should be honoured and that's as it should be. As Sweaterkittens said, you either believe in bodily autonomy or you fucking don't.

Signed,

A Transman who has had exclusively plastics for all FOUR major surgeries throughout his life.

You guys do know that transitioning doesn’t change your entire personality, right. It doesn’t fix you. It doesn’t magically solve all of your problems. And it sure as fuck doesn’t make it so that your sole character trait is your gender. You guys know that, right?

June isn’t magically going to become a cutesy hyperfeminine bimbo type just because she transitioned. You guys do know who Egbert is in the comic, right? Is this how you think women act?

speaking from personal experience (albeit in the opposite direction): transitioning is not instantaneous, nor is it a magic cure for dysphoria and negative mental health.

it's a process that takes years, and while it gives you momentum, it's not going to magically erase all of your trauma and maladaptive tendencies. self-realization, becoming the most comfortable, happy, and healthy version of yourself, is something that takes time and effort and therapy for anyone, especially someone who's been through the level of bullshit that june has.

she doesn't decide to transition and then magically become a maniac pixie dream girl with no depression or self-isolative tendencies to speak of. she grows her hair out into a mullet-esque mop cut and gets a skort to wear around the house and goes to therapy, and it's hard.

it's messy and she struggles, but she tries. she tries, and she puts herself out there to watch shitty movies with dave and jade and debate the semantics of magic and wizardry with rose and plays pranks on karkat and gets into shenanigans with terezi, and it all works out in the end.

the crescendo of her transition isn't throwing out her cargo shorts or getting really good at makeup or whatever stereotypical bullshit is supposed to indicate ""femininity"", it's doing her eyeliner with sharpie because it's more practical that way and booking herself a stand-up gig at a comedy club. her routine is absolutely atrocious, a total groaner, and she goes back the next week to do it again because she loves it.

being a woman doesn't mean changing herself or her personality to fit in with some empty, corporate ideal of womanhood. it means finding the courage to express herself in a way that is true and comfortable to who she really is.

i went to a tiny counterserve diner once and accidentally poured sugar instead of salt all over my hashbrowns and was eating them sadly anyways. the waitress took them away and started making me another one and I tried to protest, but she just snorted and said "we're not catholic here". now every time i'm doing something painful out of obligation i think about how that is not repenting, this body is not a catholic establishment, there is no nobility in suffering.

cumpriest

so funny to me when white american christians are like “ooh i incorporate my religious trauma into my art and thats why i draw these stained glass gothic church gold multi eyed reneissance sculpture angels agnus dei” like i know your protestant southern california ass didnt have any of that. go make some art about this

ok

Damn way to read the assignment and go above and beyond.

the bleakness and sanitized feel of most American protestant churches really is an underused medium.
