If you want to stand up for transgender Canadians, then there's a petition to ask the federal government to repeal the acts signed into law that restrict transgender medical care for transgender youth:
You need only be a resident of Canada, not a citizen to sign. Please help us give transgender youth a fighting chance. Their medical care decisions should be between the handling physician and family only. This isn't a matter for politicians to decide.

This is a test to see if my account is still shadow-banned on Tumblr. If you've seen this by:
It popping up on your private dashboard (because you follow me)
Seeing it in the basic algorithm feeds
Then please like this post so I can see the metrics.
If you've seen this by:
Going directly to my account
Got a link to this from another site/link/friend etc.
Someone else reblogging this post
Any other way
Don't like or interact! Last I checked, you couldn't search me or find my posts unless someone else reblogged it, you went directly to my page, or you got a direct link to the post.
I want to know if I'm still left unsearchable/discoverable.
If I'm back to being searchable/discoverable, a crap ton of you should see this! Which means yaaaay! I might start using this account again!
Okay, look, I don't know what trans person out there needs to hear this, but you need to be kinder to yourself.
You can be unhappy with your appearance, clothing options, style, etc. I'm not going to deny you that, I'm there with you. What I mean is you're not a horrible person for making mistakes, getting things wrong, making stupid choices or even bad ones; you're learning. You should remember the reasons why you'll make better choices in the future, take better actions, learn new things, create better habits, etc, but you shouldn't let your failings beat you endlessly over the head. You shouldn't constantly put yourself down because you don't think you deserve kindness, complements, or even praise. The fun thing about 'deserving' nice things, is you often don't get to decide what good things you do deserve, especially when the kindness is coming from friends, because that's how they're showing they appreciate you.
Your worst critic isn't giving you the "real take" on who you are, they're highlighting the worst without comparing any of who you are with your best. That worst critic is you. Learn to tell yourself to shut the hell up, and accept the kindness, complements, and care others show you.
The simplest way to put it is: You need to be kinder to yourself, and ditch the self-depreciating internal and external commentary and jokes. It's not helping you, it's tearing you down. It's self-destructive. Focus on building yourself up. You and everyone else around you will appreciate that much more. And if you don't know where to start, then my suggestion is to find a gender affirming therapist. Get help; you deserve it. Not because you're broken, but because you deserve the upgrade, the improvement.
It's something I'm doing now myself. It's something that's making me feel better about a lot of things.
How is the pharmacist doing, did he immigrate?
Yes! He was approved a year ago or so I found out! I'm very happy for him.
A reminder: If you're transphobic towards me (be it on social media, youtube, or twitch); I take one more step towards being a girly-girl/trans girl stereotype. Since apparently some of you can't help yourselves/didn't believe me, the category on my Throne has been made, and an item added.
Next will be a pink pleated skirt. After that it'll be white thigh-highs. Then some sort of pink or white cropped top, then heels, then cat ears, then ... a tail. You can let me live my life in peace, you can ignore me. Or you can keep trying to be a jerk and I can become the person you hate most. To the rest of you lovely and nice people. If you ever care to make a transphobes day worse, let me know what you think I should add. I've already got a number of skirts and thigh-highs on throne that are more down the goth route but I'm open to suggestions.

To everyone who commented that my wardrobe of dark clothing, interest in classical music/jazz and dark magic themed novels was a "phase"? Well, I have come to a realization:
It wasn't a cry for help.
It wasn't depression.
It was, and always had been about joy.
And ... I'm bringing it back.
I was previously scared to try anything out of the norm, but the 7 year old me admired the weird adults with strange hobbies. I wanted to grow up into that.
And it's time I started to do that. I don't want to be a boring, sanitized, cookie-cutter adult. I want to be weird.
I want to be fun.
Watch (my cat) is in the hospital. She developed a sudden wobble at dinner time and wouldn't eat. She's been left over-night for observation and testing. The cost of all this can cost up to $2700. I can't really afford this so any help is appreciated. Link below for donation:

Watch means the world to me despite my allergy towards her. I don't like asking for help like this, I normally just have Ko-Fi as an optional way for others to support me, but I could really use the help here.
If I think back to major lessons I learned growing up, one was learning to uncouple the darkly dressed, sometimes dirty, weird looking person commonly labelled as the 'bad guy' in media from the expectation that that's what the 'bad guys' in real life were going to be like. While there definitely were some weird-looking folk out there that turned out to be bad, the greatest of life's real villains for me took great pains to look like they were just like everyone else. And it became slowly apparent that the framing of the darkly-dressed, sometimes shabby, weird-looking individual was more a cultural villainization of minority groups, and a christian-styled narrative theme of painting anyone in clean white and bright colours as good, and anyone in dark or dirty as bad. However, this was never something broken down and explained.
I've since felt that perhaps the same way we have kids read the works of William Shakespeare (with the breakdown on the next page) should be the way we host a class on media literacy for high-schooler's. At the current state of education in North America (specifically Canada and the US), we relegate such breakdowns as the realm of college's, universities, and other post-secondary education institutions in the area's of film or cultural studies. With the way that media is now so easily accessible, and has been for decades now (starting with the home TV, moving to the home PC, to tablets, laptops, and cellphones in the modern age) the need to move such education from post-secondary to secondary education I think is pertinent, and dare I say, vital to educating minors as they begin to approach adulthood. Especially since many politicians and public figures use such narrative elements in their addresses to attempt to seem legitimate, or well meaning when they could be anything but with their true intentions.
I know this is a long essay, but I don't think it's wrong to want children and teens to be able to more accurately understand media framing and censorship, and have them develop the skills to identify themes and tropes that might otherwise bias their interpretation of the events they see. In fact, it's an aspect of critical thinking we should uphold and promote. I think half of the grifters, and bad role-models we see in media wouldn't have half a leg to stand on with the younger generation if we taught them the basic skills. Just so that they know that a white T-shirt, a bright background, and a clean or formal look doesn't automatically land a point in the 'I should listen to this person' column. To teach them that perhaps the compare and contrast skill of "how would my mother/father/brother/sister/best friend (boy/girl/etc) at school feel if this was said about/or was them? And what if this was said about me?" are more important questions to ask before taking someone's advice.
I personally think we should make sure when we as adults today say "think before you act" that them as the next generation of future adults that WILL BE making the decisions of our later years know exactly what we mean. At current, we've done a massive disservice to a vast number of minors and adults by lapsing on such important education. And honestly, I know many of us simply didn't have the power or means to make the changes we wanted to, a lot of the power has been kept in the hands of the oldest generations in a death-grip, but that is soon to change if by no other means than time finally catching up to them and nature running it's course.
Basically, we need to look at the next several generations to come and ask ourselves how we, as power finally begins to trade hands, can make sure the future steers as far away from where we are today. I believe the answer lies not in the current craze of censorship and surveillance, but instead, in the time-tested strategy of education coming first.
