no longer having the safety of a closet to hide in

family rejection

discrimination, threats, physical and sexual abuse

social stigma (that means you)

political and social campaigns calling for your eradication

It was found suicide rates increased during transition but then drastically drop once the trans person is post-transition (with what post-transition means different to each trans person obviously). So while 67% of transitioning trans people thought about suicide, this rate dropped to 3% in post-transition trans people (Bailey et al., 2014). 

Futhermore the What We Know Project, a research initiative that is lead at Cornell’s Center for the Study of Inequality, completed the most up-to-date and massive comprehensive literature review as of 2018, on the mental health of trans people that underwent transition and found that out of the studies published since 1991, 93% (56 studies) of all the studies reported that transitioning overall improved the health of transgender people. Only 4% (7 studies) reported mixed findings and 0 studies reported transitioning doing more harm then good.

Disabled Person: YOU COMPLETE AND UTTER FOOL!

The United States Government:

In order for disabled people to receive any sort of financial assistant for their housing, food, bills, medical supplies, etc., they cannot ever have more than $2,000 of resources to their name. Ever.

It doesn’t matter what it’s for.

You’re saving up for a new wheelchair?

For college?

To put a downpayment on a house?

Hell man, you just happen to budget for once in your life so that you can have some extra money in case something bad happens?

Your benefits immediately get cut off if you’re a cent over $2,000.

And, even worse, you usually end up having to pay back every dollar the government gave you that month.

So say you get $400. If they find out you’re twenty dollars over the resource limit, you have to give them all $400 back and you undergo an investigation of your funds to see if you will continue getting money.

“What if I spend the money that day?”

Doesn’t matter. In fact, from what I can tell, people who do this are actually put under investigation for fraud.

before the movie came out, Marvel gave him an exclusive preview screening. SOme people were upset because they felt if Marvel was really wanted to thank mantlo, they should have donated money to Mantlo’s family.

Sometimes, at the end of the month, he has no idea what to do with his money because the whole month went by and he still has 400-ish bucks in his account, and he fucking panics because he doesn’t want to get anywhere near 2,000.

And here’s the funnest part of the story!

One day he did a huge commission on Second Life and wound up earning 1500 bucks off of it, and he told the guy to donate it 500 bucks at a time over 3 months. The guy didn’t want to, and just donated all 1500, which put my brother at 2,036 bucks.

The state IMMEDIATELY (I’m talking less than an hour) called him up to tell him over the phone that they were canceling his SSI, because they noticed he had gone over the 2,000 buck threshold. He had to tell them that someone had made a charitable donation to him and that this was not a common occurrence in any way shape or form, and upon not believing him, my mother had to call to talk to them as his legal caretaker and say basically the same thing until they called off the cancellation of his SSI money.

He also had to cancel his renter’s assistance because it put him to 1,062 a month, so if he went 30 days without spending any money they’d cancel his SSI altogether. Like, none of us in the family have any fucking clue why that regulation is in place and it’s the stupidest shit in human history.

During my stay I realized I have a fractured rib, and after a visit to the emergency room I was told that receiving any health care would be very expensive because I am not a Canadian citizen. The fee for seeing a doctor at a walk in clinic is $150-$200. Accessing medical care once I am home will be extremely difficult because of my family.

My main concern is getting a refill for my Albuterol, which was left behind when I had my medication refills shipped to me. I have 14 doses left and normally average 3 a day. I have had to ration this so breathing has been difficult, made worse by the fact that I’m having a flare up (Cyclic Neutropenia) which causes me pain and difficulty breathing on its own. We were told this would cost at least $700.

My friend and I were also left without food in their home after their mom unexpectedly left, so having $50 for groceries would really help. If anyone could send a couple dollars or even just reblog this post I would appreciate it so so much.

If this could still be spread around and be seen by more people, it would mean so much to me

Please keep sharing around, it helps so much!!

Somebody please help me get to a safe place

My health is not well because of said stress, my flare ups are getting worse and more (they’re extremely painful and leave me bedridden) I have endocrinologist, hematologist, and gastroligist appointments, and physical therapy to be able to use my arm. I NEED ALL OF THIS (I can’t afford now that I’m trying to pay for bills that are behind.)

I If I could get any help I’d really appreciate it. (I won’t be able to be making money for rent right now or for appointments, and meds) anything and EVERYTHING counts at this point. Thank you, I really really appreciate it. If you donate, message me so I can personally thank you!

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) confronted a CEO Thursday for pricing a drug designed to reduce the risk of HIV transmission at $8 in Australia but over $1,500 in the U.S.

“You’re the CEO of Gilead. Is it true that Gilead made $3 billion in profits from Truvada in 2018?” Ocasio-Cortez asked Gilead CEO Daniel O'Day.

“$3 billion in revenue,” he clarified.

The current list price is $2,000 a month in the United States, correct?“ she asked, referring to Truvada.

“It’s $1,780 in the United States,” O'Day responded.

“Why is it $8 in Australia?” Ocasio-Cortez countered.

“Truvada still has patent protection in the United States and in the rest of the world it is generic,” O'Day explained, adding, “It will be generically available in the United States as of September 2020.”

“I think it’s important here that we notice that we the public, we the people, developed this drug. We paid for this drug, we lead and developed all the patents to create Prep and then that patent has been privatized despite the fact that the patent is owned by the public, who refused to enforce it,” Ocasio-Cortez said.

“There’s no reason this should be $2,000 a month. People are dying because of it and there’s no enforceable reason for it.”
