look inside

this is what I mean about how right now in the united states (won't speak for elsewhere but feel free to lmk in the notes if you'd like) a lot of us trans adults who are able to access transition care can only do so at the direct expense of trans minors. this clinic would not have opened if they held the line and offered equal access to healthcare to trans minors.

"Martin announced the direct-care clinic, calling it “one of the first times a public health department has ever taken that step.” But when Cabán pushed back, pointing out that trans youth are the ones most under attack right now—noting that there are “almost no providers” left for youth the entire city—Martin indicated the clinic would not serve youth, citing the need to “strike a balance” between providing care and avoiding “clawbacks from the federal government.” This morning, EITM can directly confirm that the age cutoff is 19—matching the Trump administration’s executive order threshold, not the standard legal age of adulthood in New York."

a lot of the structural transphobia we are experiencing is hitting minors even worse. their care gets banned first. if you want a preview of what access to healthcare will look like for us trans adults in 2 years, look at what access looks like for legal minors right now.

she found this out the first time when she auto-started her truck to warm it up before work one below-freezing morning and came out ~5 minutes later to find (the then unnamed) diesel with her head stuffed in the tail pipe hanging limply by her idiot neck and thought that she was dead, ran over and pulled her out, and the chicken went "oh hi! anyways mind if i get back in there?" and did it a-fucking-gain??

best guess is bc she feeds her chickens with a pvc gravity pipe like this

Hiiiii guysss happy pride from your fav doll that never evacuated FL bc ron dipshit cant touch thisss. 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

I finally gave up on insurance this year and started DIY HRT after 10 years waiting to start bc I wanted to do things 'the right way' and I'm 3 months along now. I've gotten closer than I've ever been with my community through sports which was something I had avoided intensely as a trans woman. I've kept the same restaurant job for over a year and I've been getting more opportunities in modeling! sometimes i think i'm mid, but for now I'd like to take a moment to be proud of myself bc being a doll down here made a lot of those prospects feel out of reach for a long time!! When I was younger and more afraid I used to think these were things I'd need to move to a haven state for.

I've also experienced some difficult life changes this year. HUD raised the rent by another $40 effective July, and I have nobody I can split expenses with until my lease is up at the end of November. Because I don't get full 40 hour weeks and only make $16 hourly, I often have to get an advance in order to clear my rent and then scramble for the rest of the month to make up the difference on my utilities, bills, gas prices, and food. I haven't wanted to make another post like this to fundraise, but even with all of the supportive community in my life I have today, my safety net isn't very robust. when I can avoid it I do, but I've had to rely on mutual aid and survival sex work on this platform for years now. If you've read this far thank you, I'm well aware there are people suffering worse than me now and I don't want to divert resources from them, however there's no donation amount that'd be too small to make a difference for me. #paythedolls 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
