I don't really understand what tumblr is yet

You have to know that.

There are no modern heroes soaring into the sun. There are no living gods in silver sandals. There is only the small, hollow tap of a moth butting the bulb of your beside lamp. There is only the grooved face of a man buying gel sole inserts and nicotine gum.

You have to know that.

Cats are so dramatic…

YOU NEED GOOD SECURITY CULTURE. The USA has one of the most powerful anti-radical police states in the world, and they WILL clamp down hard on any opposition, peaceful or otherwise.

Here’s some resources which might help:

privacytools, which should help teach you a bit about encryption and provide you with good starting points for making your communications that little bit harder to detect and read.

Download Tor, a browser which, with a little bit of extra caution will help keep a lot of what you do online secret.

Start using an encrypted messenger app on your phone. Telegram is the most popular, but its encryption is not the best. Personally I recommend using Wire (which also works as a desktop messenger app), or even WhatsApp functions acceptably.

Learn how to use and set up Proxies and a VPN

Start using an encrypted and independent email service. Many radical groups use riseup.net but they are very well known to security services and are monitored more closely than most. Their server ownership is also in question. I use Proton Mail but there are other services too.

When actually doing actions offline, learn how to maintain anonymity. Black Bloc is a good option for this (here’s a video on how to at a basic level, but the gist of it is to cover your face as much as possible, and to dress entirely in black), but there are other tactics such as all wearing boiler suits of the same colour, or simply destroying CCTV and other surveillance devices in the area you are operating in.

-push disillusioned liberals to the left. propagandize the shit outta that. make sure people know not just how the DNC sabotaged itself by cleansing itself of anything even superficially leftist, but also how this is just one example of liberalism’s complete inability to fight against white supremacy and fascism.

-organize. connect with your local BLM groups, unions, community groups, leftist political orgs, student activists - and especially any group aimed at protecting and aiding immigrants. do not bother with any petty sectarian leftist squabble for the near future just build off what needs to be done now to protect people and combat this threat.

I really hate to do this again, but i’m running out of options. (Atypical Autism, BPD, Severe Depression, ADHD, and Social Anxiety Disorder doesn’t exactly increase your already small chances of employment as a trans woman) 

Rent is coming soon, my meds are more expensive than ever because of a bureaucratic mistake related to my legal gender change. And due to transphobic laws here in Denmark i have to travel to and from Copenhagen to get the “treatment” that will finally allow me to access HRT (legally). But that trip costs $128 every time, that money does, eventually, get reimbursed. But only just in time for it to cover the cost of the next trip (excluding food).

Trying to balance the cost of those trips, my meds, my HRT, rent, food, and other expenses is a something i can’t keep doing much longer to be quite honest.

If you can spare anything it would mean the world to me, and if you can’t then please reblog the post so maybe someone who can will see it
