I Am Not Hopeful. I Am Not Optimistic. I AM Sure.

a friend just pointed out they could be reacting to ii and wearing what they remember as 2018 outfits which checks out for phil's jean jacket and his hair looking like it flattened out a quiff....

So, if any trans men are being told about this, it’s not true!! Smoking will not change your voice, at least not until you’re about forty years down the line and you’ve already irreparably destroyed your lungs and throat and mouth and pretty much every other organ in your body. When you hear heavy smokers with deeper, scratchier voices it is literally because their vocal cords have been ruined. This is not a passive effect of smoking, it is a very very damaging one!

It’s simply not worth it! There will be no meaningful changes except terrible ones. Voice training will do a lot more for you than cigarettes will, I promise that the people urging you to start smoking as a voice training method do not have your best interests at heart!

(And you know what, this also goes for not eating due to the idea that starving yourself will decrease your chest size. Like with smoking, there will be no meaningful changes except terrible ones. Your body is worth so much more than that and there will always be healthier alternatives!)

(Btw, afaik smoking only has this effect on estrogen from HRT. Estrogen that AFAB bodies produce naturally is not affected, so smoking is still bad for trans men)

I never thought I would spend my days counting dollars while my mother’s health hangs in the balance. She has already been rushed to the hospital because of dangerously high blood pressure, and her medication is not something she can skip not even for a single day. Every missed dose puts her at greater risk, and I am terrified of what tomorrow could bring if we cannot get the treatment she needs.😔💔

We have fought so hard to reach this point, and now we are closer than ever. Just $202 stand between my mother and the medicine that could keep her stable. This is not a large amount when many people come together. A few small donations could end this nightmare today.💔

Please, don’t assume someone else will help. Every person who scrolls past thinking, “Someone else will donate,” leaves us exactly where we are still waiting, still scared, still watching my mother suffer. If you can spare even a few dollars, you have the power to change what happens next.🙏

I am not asking for luxury or comfort. I am asking for the chance to keep my mother safe. I am asking you to help us before her condition gets even worse. If our story reaches your heart, please don’t leave without doing something. Your kindness today could be the reason my mother receives her medication in time

Please donate now. We are only $202 away from giving my mother the care she urgently needs.🙏💔😔

Current process: USD 16,863 / $17,065

Please help my daughter's sweetheart alleviate her suffering.

Because of the tent life and the spread of infectious diseases and many epidemics, she deserves a better life like other children; she has the right to play and study.

We cannot afford to buy medicine due to our difficult living conditions. Please save my daughter; every donation makes a difference in Habiba's life.

Every morning, Adam and Habiba dream of going to school, but due to serious financial difficulties, I can no longer afford their education.

Education is their only hope for a better future. Any support or even sharing this message could help keep their dreams alive.

Thank you for caring 🤍

Here in Gaza, life in all its forms has come to a halt because of the war😔.

living here has become extremely difficult due to the high and rising prices.

It has become hard to provide the basic necessities we need, like food and drink.

The cost of living for one day exceeds $100.

Please help me, even if just a little.

Hello friends, I thank you very much for your continuous support, but right now I am in urgent need of you and your help. We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, which requires a lot of expenses, and there has been a significant rise in prices.

I also need to pursue my dream after losing everything. I need your support greatly—I need more than $1,500 to pay my university fees so I can receive my certificate and apply for scholarships.

You can find the images below the post.

Therefore, I am in great need of your help. I support my family, and at the same time, I am trying to achieve myself and continue my education.
