Essential information of previous post:

If you are transfem, this shit will increase your testosterone levels.

They are lying to you to take your money. Don't fucking touch it. Tell your friends and family.

If you're desperate, DIY is an option. The subreddit r/TransDIY is an excellent resource, as is the DIY Wiki.

If what you really want is a herbal supplement, there are certain herbs that will have a minor antiandrogenic effect. The DIY resources here will have more information on it.

Edit: the dose of ashwagandha is so high that it will give you serotonin syndrome within four to eight weeks. This shit is evil.

Mona Alkurd , one of the Palestinians Israel is trying to kick along with 28 families out of their decades long homes in Sheikh Al Jarrah , the last Palestinian block in Al Quds ( Jerusalem ), to complete the restriction of the area to Israeli Jews .. simply an Apartheid by settlers.

“ Your posts and tweets are treasures to us “

Here a rough translation of what she said:

“ It falls on us and Palestinians and the honorable people supporting us with posts and tweets. You have no idea how much that means to us. Everyone who shares even one short post or tweet. Don’t feel like you’re doing nothing. Those posts and tweets are treasures to us. Help us get our cause heard. We are 28 families. 500 individuals. If we are removed, then there will be no Palestinians in Al Quds. And in the end, Allah is our hope. And it falls on us. And we will remain here to our last breath defending our lands and homes”

I Am Not Your Asian American Doll: a comic for AAPI Heritage Month 2023

I usually spend a lot of time editing and fine-tuning my comics so that they come across as polite and inoffensive. But honestly, I’m really tired of the way Asian cultures and countries are treated / talked about while Asian people themselves are excluded, and thought it was about time I really let my rage out lol.

Hey I'm gonna start something that'll maybe go nowhere let's go

All UK phones will go off with a loud siren-like sound on April 23rd at 3PM

Screenshot reads as follows:

Please don't ignore this as people with mental health conditions, those in abusive environments, et cetera, who are unaware of this might panic or be in harms way.

If you have a secret phone because you're living in an abusive situation, here is how to turn these Emergency Alerts off because they will still make a sound with your phone on silent:

More info for domestic abuse survivors here: https://www.housing.org.uk/news-and-blogs/news/emergency-alerts-information-for-domestic-abuse-survivors/

Even if you're not from the UK, please share this if you can!

Please pre-alert anyone who might be endangered by this or who might just be totally alarmed by their phone making a loud noise and sending them an 'Emergency Alert' text. Many people may be concerned that it's a hoax even if the message clarifies it's a test. For neurodivergent people or people with PTSD this is also a risk. It could just be super annoying in the theatre or if you're putting a baby to sleep.

Either by preparing or by turning it off, please get yourself and friends and family ready

Today has been extra rough. My best friend is M2F. She called in tears earlier. The conversation we had several weeks ago took hold. She’s terrified people will start “hunting trans people” if what the police are saying is true.

I had paltry words today. I couldn’t do much more than listen. I couldn’t tell her it won’t happen. That, alone, is terrifying.

The narrative is being pushed so hard and there’s little counter-messaging.

I don’t understand why we aren’t in the streets. Kids all over Florida are staging a mass walkout this week in support of trans rights.

Why aren’t we in the streets demanding change? One coordinated strike, across the country, all at once. Millions of people are angry about today. Yet we sit idle.

Aw geez: Indiana likely to enact anti-trans laws on the one hand, but throwing stars will be legal, at least in some places.  Whut?  From Indiana Public Broadcasting, IPB News:

On the anti-trans bill, Lauren Chapman reports:

“Gov. Eric Holcomb has until Wednesday, April 5 to sign, veto or let a gender-affirming care ban for transgender youth become law without his signature. The governor says the issue is ‘clear as mud’ but he would take action by deadline.

Senate Bill 480 bans medicinal or surgical gender-affirming care for transgender youth. Surgical gender-affirming care isn’t provided to minors in Indiana. But medicinal care is more common — prescribing puberty blockers or hormone therapies to help treat gender dysphoria.  The bill would forcibly de-transition transgender youth already receiving therapies by the end of the year.

Holcomb said he’s spoken with providers and others to get a grasp on the issue and he’s talked to the lawmakers behind the measure.  ‘I think their intent is to address the care for the child,’ Holcomb said.”

Saying that an issue is “clear as mud” to me sounds like the man from Utah who said he wished women could just make decisions for themselves instead of male legislators.

Brandon Smith reports on throwing stars:

“Throwing stars are set to become legal this summer after lawmakers sent legislation to the governor eliminating their prohibition.

The weapons have been illegal in Indiana since the mid-1980s. And a bill this session, SB 77, was originally aimed at legalizing them only in certain entertainment venues – the ax-throwing businesses that have become popular wanted to offer throwing stars.  The measure was expanded to fully legalize throwing stars after, Rep. Dale DeVon (R-Granger) said, Indiana prosecutors and public defenders both got on board with the idea.

‘And put them in the same category as a pocketknife,’ DeVon said. ‘So, they will not be allowed in schools or anything like that.’”

I – got nothin’

Pls reblog for reach!

I really need help explaining to someone why using they/them deliberately for binary trans people isn't okay. I.e calling a trans girl they/them after she has told you she uses she/her.

I can't get the words together right and it's just making me angry so if someone has a good explanation of this PLS comment or reblog with it.

They/them shows you aren't assuming someone's gender. It's good to do with strangers or new people you meet. Once someone has told you their pronouns using anything other pronouns they aren't okay with is misgendering. Hope this can help!
