Hello! Please help me raise the money I need to get top surgery! I'm an autistic college student and definitely can't work enough to pay for school and this.

You can help by donating to or spreading my GoFundMe.

[autisticadrienagreste]

I honestly wish I could go just one fucking day without some reminder that nobody actually wants me.

[autisticadrienagreste]

This is what has been happening at my school, the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Please spread this around.

Emergency

I hate to do this but I really don’t have the money to properly take care of myself at the moment. I have less than a dollar in my checking account, I owe my school $300, and I am likely to need even more money in order to have a place to stay and food to eat over the winter break.

I am trans and I ran away from my parents so I really can’t ask them for any money. I am autistic and vision impaired. The dining commons where I work is going to be closed over the winter break so I won’t have a job for a little over a month. I’m going through a very bad depressive episode and have already been in the ER. I can’t afford my medication. I can’t afford anything I need right now. And I keep having to either skip work or leave work early because I work in a kitchen and knives are a trigger for me when my mental health is this bad.

I don’t have food stamps at the moment, but I intend to apply for them once I am okay enough to leave my dorm. If I get them I’ll probably get a cheaper meal plan next semester too.

If anybody could please help, that would be appreciated. If you can’t donate, please at least spread this around.

My PayPal email is [email protected] or you can use my link.

Thank you so much in advance.

oh man like jade’s final aesthetic is amazing, undeniably, but once you consider the weapon she uses it becomes. fucking hilarious

So proud of my mother for doing her own research after I sent her that meme. A sign she hung in her car window.

Stay woke

[pual1010-deactivated20150723]

Is this true?

[mallninjacode-deactivated201812]

Not only is it true, it gets worse. The Susan G Komen For The Cure Foundation has actually successfully sued “competing” charities, because (paraphrasing) their “message or branding was infringing.”

You read that correctly: they took money that people had donated to cure cancer, and hired attorneys with it, to sue ANOTHER group of people trying to find a cure for cancer, who, in turn, had to us their donated money to hire their own legal counsel to defend themselves.

Yeah signal boost because not enough people know about this and seriously FUCK SUSAN G. KOMEN THEY ARE THE ACTUAL WORST

Komen For The Cure is pretty much awful.

My mother died in 1996 from breast cancer. Most cancer charities are scams, in that people throw fancy parties and get rich off them and very little money goes into research or support for patients. Here are some vetted cancer charities that get good scores on Charity Navigator and pay medical expenses or fund research:

Breast Cancer Research Foundation

Cancer Research Institute

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Reblogging from myself because it’s October now

[marigoldwitch]

Growing up my parents taught me that if you’re too sick to [insert responsibility here] then you’re too sick to [insert something that makes you happy here].

It took me a really long time to unlearn this. When I would get sick or have a “bad day” I would deprive myself of anything that made me happy. Watching movies, eating something I enjoyed, going for a walk, playing video games or just browsing online looking at funny cat videos. I wouldn’t let myself do these things because I was always told that if I’m too sick to go to work, or do homework, or go to school then I must be too sick to play Mortal Kombat or watch Unsolved Mysteries lol.

Whenever I wouldn’t feel good, which I later learned as an adult was due to sleep deprivation caused by my ADHD and depression (and of course the depression itself would cause me to feel like shit), my parents would tell me “if you’re not throwing up, then you’re not sick.” And when I would stay home from school (or even work in my later teen years) my parents would make sure that I didn’t have any “fun.” No TV, no movies, no games, no going outside, no arts and crafts, no books, no nothing. Just lay in bed and feel miserable.

I’m happy to say that I no longer do this to myself. Now when I’m having a bad day or I’m sick (cold, flu or whatever) I allow myself to do the things (within reason lol) that I actually love doing. If I’m not too sick to step outside for a few minutes then I’ll go for a walk. I’ll watch my favorite movies and if it’s a bad day or a cold (something that doesn’t hinder my appetite too much) I’ll eat my favorite foods. I don’t guilt trip myself anymore for having a “sick day.”

Just because you’re sick (whether physically, emotionally or mentally) doesn’t mean that you can’t do things you enjoy. You’re not any less sick because you watch TV. You’re not any less sick because you’re playing video games. 

Actually you SHOULD be doing these things when you’re not feeling good because they make you feel better. The better you feel, the faster your heal.

Thank you! I needed to read this.

My job isn’t physically demanding - I work in an office doing data analysis and database system configuration and maintenance stuff. I’m a spreadsheets nerd, basically. On my days off, I play games on my computer. So you’d think, I’m just spending all day staring at a screen either way, right? So if I’m too sick for one, I should be too sick for the other. Right?

But there’s a huge difference in effort required for pulling myself out of bed to my computer 20 feet away in the room down the hall, where I can huddle in my chair with a blanket and dick around in Stardew Valley or go blow shit up in Warframe all day without ever talking to another human being aside from Ozz, versus getting up early, making myself look professional and polished, leaving on time, driving to work, and spending 8 hours sitting up straight, interacting with people (which means being socially “on” and keeping up professional demeanor as well as appearance), attending meetings and making calls, having to be focused and mentally “on” enough to keep my work accurate and produce the high-quality deliverables my team relies on me for. If going to work requires an 8 out of 10 on the functionality scale, and playing a videogame requires like a 3, then it’s very easy to be too sick to go to work, without necessarily being depleted down to a 0 and unable to do anything other than laying in bed being miserable. It’s not a contradiction to say “I’m too sick to put out the effort to go to work/school” and also “I am not too sick to play videogames” even if they’re both “just sitting at a computer”.

I’ve even outright said as much when I’ve been feeling crappy and needed to leave early. “Look, I’m not functional enough to actually be productive right now, so I can either sit here and stare blankly at my work screen, or I can go home and stare blankly at my videogame screen, and if I’m not accomplishing much of anything either way I’d rather not be here wasting everyone’s time / the company’s money paying me for work I’m not doing.”

“oh i love your name” “thanks i picked it out myself” is an A+ trans joke

[astudyintransience]

PSA

if you aren’t out as a trans man, do not submit any pictures to the blog fuckyeahftms

theres a blog (dirtywhiteboi67.blogspot.com) that frequently links to and reposts pictures of trans men from fuckyeahftms, effectively outing them, in the name of showing how “testosterone is poison to the female body,” and “transgenderism was made to fix homosexuality and is a lesbian epidemic”

this blog also gets photos of trans men from other sites like instagram, some who explicitly mention they’re living stealth

the blog mostly features young trans men, including many who are minors, and typically writes a few paragraphs misgendering them and condemning “transgenderism”

if you’re a trans man, i would be extremely cautious posting any pictures of yourself online right now if you’re concerned about being outed

[archernightwalker]

Dirtywhiteboy is run by Cathy Brennan of radical TERF fame. You may not know of her but basically she’s a whackadoodle cisfemale “rad-feminist” who is INSANELY anti-trans. Transwomen to her are just men trying to get into a position to rape women, and transmen are women who so self loathe being women they’ve given into mysoginy. She sees things in insane ways, she preaches VIOLENT rhetoric and is all around a horrid person

[terf-callout]

Sorry for the multiple posts on this subject - just wanted to warn people about this blog (dirtywhiteboi67)
