Casual reminder to talk to normal people about DIY-HRT.

The fact that it has become the de-facto standard for transgender healthcare around the world is a scandal and most people will see it that way, once they get a grasp of what is going on. Keep in mind that most cis people have no clue about anything related to trans people and that ignorance is
very much not the same as malice.

And by telling them about DIY-HRT, I actually mean the full story: Online-pharmacies, homebrewers, bathtub-estrogen and how massively they differ in price. (A collegue of mine went from “I would never mix my own medication” to “I would totally mix my own medication” upon me mentioning that I was spending ≈100€ per month on pharmaceutical grade medication at the time). Explain how mixing works and why we are so confident in the quality that homebrewers produce (independent tests!). Mention that gel is primarily hand-sanitizer, so that even if they were to work in unhygenic matters, the result would still be estrogen-infused hand-sanitizer!

Talk about how stupidly low the regret rates are and that most effects reverse on their own if you really came to regret them. Be open, direct and keep refering to it as the de-facto standard of treatment. Make it clear why it is necessary, safe and widespread.

People who are somewhat open-minded can be convinced! And they will afterwards know how awful the hellcare systems around the world treat us and might mention it to others or argue in our favor. Keep in mind that we (trans people) are like 1% of the population, we
need allies! And our allies need to know what we need and what our situation is!

The one caveat I will add: Talking to jornos and right-wingers is a different story, as many of them are malicious actors and will frame things in harmful ways, if given the chance!

What is the difference between honest ignorance (which we all have on any number of topics, and if we're humble, we learn) and prideful ignorance ("I know everything already, shut up")?

Two Transgender Girls, Six Federal Agencies. How Trump Is Trying to Pressure Maine Into Obedience.

Maine said it wouldn’t break state law to follow President Donald Trump’s order barring transgender girls from playing girls’ sports. Then came a barrage of investigations and threats targeting the state’s federal funding.

A common conservative trope — and "justification" for anti-trans behavior and lawmaking — is the idea that cis-men will pretend they're trans in order to sneak into women's locker rooms. So trans filmmaker Siobhan McCarthy made it the premise of their movie, "She's the He." The Amanda Bynes comedy "She's the Man" had spoken to them deeply as a teenager and sparked a conversation with friend and co-editor Will Geare about trans stories they wished they'd seen when they were younger. “I made a joke about, what if we took that conservative fear of [trans people] going into the bathrooms and we really played that out?” McCarthy told @Variety. Here's more about the resulting movie, which received a standing ovation at South By Southwest.

Imagine a chain of rights where one small push can topple fundamental freedoms. United we stand, divided we fall. This powerful cartoon serves as a poignant reminder that protecting one right means protecting them all. Let’s stand together for justice and equality for everyone!

Raven's 10 Policy Platform for Good Governance in 2025, Independent of the Country:

1. Every citizen and documented immigrant should be guaranteed and be able to expect the government to do it's best to represent their needs and best interests as best as it possibly can to enable to maximum health, fulfillment, and enjoyment in life.

2. Universal Single Payer Healthcare, free at the point of service for all citizens and documented immigrants, and a buy in option for undocumented immigrants and visitors. (Basically Bernie Sander's Medicare For All Proposal)

3. Housing for all, make it free for all citizens and documented immigrants, and a right for all. Undocumented immigrants and visitors would need to pay for housing or seek temporary residence shelter status. (Closest to Cuba's housing model)

4. Free Public Transportation, free for all citizens and documented immigrants, undocumented immigrants and visitors can buy in, private public transportation would be illegal.

5. Disabled Inclusion and Equity, Disabled citizens and documented immigrants have a right to self determination and independence so long as a group of 10 physicians and judge via a court ruling or criminal trial waiver as a result of insanity determine otherwise. Treatment of disabilities must be inline with best efforts and good faith to both improve the quality of the disabled citizen or documented immigrant's life and their health. Disabled citizens and documented immigrants who cannot provide the means of living for themselves will be cared for.

6. LGBTQ Rights, any number of people who can and do consent to a sexual, romantic, and/or marriage based relationship should have the right to do so and all the same amenities and legal affordances that any monogamous cisgendered heterosexual couple would have.

7. Free Universal College, all colleges are free, to keep foreigners from out competing the residing population, there would be an organization and metrics to make sure that foreign students are not stealing opportunities from native born students and special priority (more than foreigners and less than native born citizens) would be given to documented immigrants and prospective immigrants.

8. Birth Right Citizenship, if you are born within a nation's borders, you should become a citizen of that nation.

9. Citizenship By Heritage, one ancestor of pure heritage in either the last 5 generations for sedentary cultures, or the last 10 for nomadic cultures. Can be done with birth records, adoption paperwork, or reputable DNA testing results.

10. Citizenship By Immigration & Assimilation, documented immigrants should be given free resources and assistance to assimilate and make a life for themselves and should be rewarded for following the process and be rewarded for choosing assimilation through re education.

Some people think they can just get rid of the T in LGBT as if they’re doing something

They don’t realise, apparently, that space to exist is not their to give or take, but it’s owned forever by the Trans community. If they try to steal the T space, then we’ll create 1000 times more spaces for more Ts to thrive.

I’m giving T space in my very own username.
The more Ts we type, the more space we claim for them.

They can come try to backspace that.
