I'm On My Second Read Of Empire And Listen...my First Read Thru I Noticed Somewhere Papa And Sister Imperator

My gender today is a whistling kettle without the heat.

My gender is not a problem for the future.

My pronouns are your best friend and that one day you ate a great meal.

The thing that transed my gender is that the most popular thing in my life is spaghetti torture.

I know everyone is tired of those “let your autofill finish the sentence” but I want to try one

Type “my gender is” and let your keyboard finish it

Type “my pronouns are” and let your keyboard finish it

Type “the thing that transed my gender is” and let your keyboard finish it

"if you want a HP shirt/necklace/earrings/whatever, make your own!!" except if you wear it in public, you're still promoting jkr

"if you want to read the books, just get them from your library!" except libraries pay attention to what people take out, and you are still supporting an author if you library their books

"just play the games!" money goes to her for that

"well, just stream the movies!" she gets money for that

"well, you can always only tell your friend group about HP--" your friends are people! you are promoting HP to other people!

JKR is transphobic. She hates trans people. Just the other day she tweeted something transphobic--specifically, transmisogynistic. In the past she's been transphobic to all types of trans people. She's also bigoted in many other ways.

There are better series. There are other series. Stop coming up with ways to keep the books and fandom alive.

Trans lives are more important than harry potter.

Please Help Homeless Trans Women Serving Our Homeless Squatter Community Raise $80 to Buy Food for Ourselves and Our Neighbors

February 27th 2024

My girlfriend and I are two transgender homeless women living in Slab City, a homeless squatter town in the middle of the desert.

We live in one of the poorest communities in the United States. Around this time of month everyone is out of EBT money to buy food with and starting to starve.

Our camp is dedicated to helping our neighbors and our community. During the end of the month we often provide meals and a community pantry.

To go shopping for the bare necessities we need $80, but everything we raise over that feeds another person.

We don't have an income outside of whatever donations we raise and so if we can't raise money, we can't help people.

Please help us raise $80 to feed ourselves, our friends, and our neighbors.

If you can't donate please like, reblog, and share. Every bit of help counts!

September is Suicide Prevention Month and I wanted to share some reminders

suicide should not be labeled as “selfish”. people who commit suicide are in incredible pain and think there’s only one way out. that pain is unimaginable if you’ve never experienced it. think about what drove the victim to do it, not just what you think about it

not all suicidal people will self harm or commit suicide. many struggle to live everyday, but continue on. this doesn’t mean that their struggle isn’t as important as those who are actively life threatening

self harm is not an indicator of suicidal thoughts all the time. many people who self harm do it for a release from the pain, not to die. this doesn’t mean their struggle is less important because they aren’t actively suicidal. but it’s also important to keep an eye on them because the release from pain can turn deadly very quickly, and they may become suicidal over time

suicidal people don’t think about dying all the time. they can have moments of happiness, anger, love, compassion, and any other emotion. they can also still be suicidal when they’re not in immediate danger.

speaking of moods, if a suicidal person suddenly is very calm, it’s best to check on them. they may have come to terms with a plan to commit suicide and need help. yes, it can be just a good mood, but it can be life saving to check in on them

being suicidal is not attention seeking. people who are suicidal need help and attention, yes, but they aren’t feeling this way to get it.

suicidal people may not be suicidal because they want the pain to stop. they may feel like people are better off without them, that no one will miss them, they’re tired of reliving trauma, or they just can’t imagine a future with them in it

many suicidal people who make it past their expected death don’t know how to continue on in life. if someone has spent the last few years thinking they won’t make it past a certain age, becoming an adult or getting older and having new challenges can be very difficult to handle because they didn’t plan for it. this is why having a therapist or counselor even once they’re out of the direct suicidal thoughts is important

having someone to cry to and call when you need help is one of the most effective suicide preventers. if a suicidal person thinks they can come to you, please be there for them, it may just save their life

suicidal people may be living for things you don’t see as important, like tv show or waiting for a new book to come out. don’t shame people for what’s keeping them alive, it’s better than nothing

that’s just the beginning of stuff to know about suicidal people and suicide in general. please call a hotline or text a service if you are in crisis. from personal experience as someone who’s been suicidal, i know how hard it is to pick up that phone, but i promise you someone is there to help
