fuck ive got a type

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)

2026 - 2025 - 2024 - 2023

in spite of it all, happy 2026 pride.

you can download current and past hi-res versions of these over at my ko-fi (ok to print for personal use): https://ko-fi.com/mxmorgan/shop/freedownloads

you can also snag shirts here which go to various orgs: https://mxmorgan.threadless.com/collections/pride

these get reposted a whole lot from here to reddit to twitter to tiktok and on and on, and i don't personally care whether or not i'm credited. i made these for everyone to use, enjoy, and find meaning in them. i appreciate folks who do credit me, but if able, please at least link to the threadless shop in the previous post - folks can get an official shirt where 90% of earnings go to trans led orgs focused on mental health (which is an important matter in general, but very personal to me) and not from a scam bot site selling AI-churned maga garbage where you probably won't get one anyway. i also suggest downloading the files from my ko-fi - they are free/PWYW and you can use them to make your own shirt, patch, embroidery project, whatever. tips are always nice, cuz i do like a pizza now and then, but never required for download.

The bottom right is the sapphic flag, which represents women/feminine-aligned people who love women. Again, it’s an umbrella term.

I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.

I really hate to be doing this but I'm kind of panicking and I don't know what else to do right now. My cat Bram has a severely loose tooth that needs to be extracted. It's gotten to the point where it's impacting his ability to eat and his overall comfort. He has a scheduled procedure on Wednesday June 17, and the total cost will be $750. I can afford to cover $400 myself (and I've already put down a 50$ surgical hold) but that leaves me with $350 left that I can't currently account for. I've been in contact with a couple organizations that might be able to help cover vet costs but I haven't heard back from them and knowing that there are only a couple days until his appointment, I don't feel safe just waiting for something that might not come. I'm a queer, mentally ill freelance artist and already struggling financially. My vet doesn't take care credit or do payment plans so if I can't cover the full cost then I have to cancel the appointment, lose my deposit and let my cat continue to suffer until I can save up the rest.

I'm really sorry to even ask, because I know everything sucks right now but I feel like I'm up against a wall, so if anyone is able to spare anything at all I'd be extremely grateful.

or the concept of a pride flag is considered to be inappropriate for 13 year olds.

happy pride 2026. here's a pride flag for when corporate interests of a site run by dogshit transphobes, handwringing pearlclutchers, and "powerless" "allies" tell you that pride and your gender is no one else's fucking business:
