like a bitch

fictional character for whom I have real feelings.

I just want people to know they don't have to have a period. Birth control can be used for cis women and trans people to stop your period (or lighten it significantly if that's what you want), so you don't even need to be on testosterone to stop it (I'm not).

a lot of the philosophy around ‘embracing’ your period is new age bullshit and not scientifically accurate at all. you don’t need it to purge toxins that would back up otherwise. you don’t need it to rebalance any hormonal system that would spin out of control otherwise. and it definitely isn’t something you always perfectly recover from: endometriosis and anemia are serious problems that hundreds of thousands of people struggle with, on top of the difficulty of managing cramps and fatigue at school and work.

i’m on the verge of getting kicked out of my abusive sister in law’s house and i have nowhere i can go– my partners are currently living out of a motel and they’re trying to help as much as they can, but they have their own set of issues to deal with right now.

i’m not getting any hours at my job and it’s hard to find and keep employment with my chronic pain. i also have over $1k in court fees that i need to pay soon and i feel so overwhelmed and i desperately need assistance.

i can draw/write/make edits for anyone who donates, i know we’re all facing hard times but anything helps, it’ll kept me fed at the very least. if you can’t donate, please rb this and spread the word around, i’d appreciate it so much <3

Again: people need to stop trashing and/or threatening our state government and also need realize that our state is unique in that we have an extra layer of security based in Philly:
