when the root of the tragedy was love.
watching videos I loved as a kid only to realize they’re infested with misogyny and ableism particles
coloured sketch page commission for @whitenessgreynessdarkness of their AU; you can read about it in their fic here!
affirmations:
- it’s fun to be awake & in an upright position
- consciousness is a gift
- i CAN do this anymore
you gotta read, you gotta write, you gotta draw, you gotta watch films and shows. there is literally NO time to be employed
Yippee :))
”there’s no glory in suffering” and “sometimes the effort is the point” are two ideas that co-exist but god damn if I can ever tell when’s the time for which
Every time it's hot out and i complain about the summer sun and heat someone's always like "Well can't you wear something other than all black all day every single day" NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ehm. trans práva.
Senátoři navrhují posunout věkovou hranici pro chirurgické zákroky na 21 let, zavést dvouletý „test“ běžného života.
asi jste to zahlídli, pokud jste ve stejný bublině jako já. long story short: není to dobrý. plus je teda velmi hořký sledovat, jak to navrhujou senátoři stran, který loni kandidovali pod heslem "teď je čas stát na správné straně"
zahrnuje to povinnou terapii, která má za cíl odradit člověka od tranzice, řeší se tam záchody a šatny, posouvá se hranice pro chirurgický zákroky.
Zatím jsem nenašla jiný článek, ale více podrobného info je třeba na Instagramu magazínu Qult:
Co můžem dělat?
❓dojít na demošku 16.6. v 17:30, jsme-li z brna a okolí:
17.6. se má v senátu projednávat návrh zákona, který by omezil přístup k tranzicím a umožnil státu provádět konverzní terapie trans* lidí A
❓napsat email/y nebo dopisy (templaty nějak dodám):
předsedovi senátu
vedení "liberálních" stran, ze kterých pocházejí navrhovatelé
senátorům, kteří zákon navrhují, a nebo vašim oblíbeným
poslancům, kteří o tom budou hlasovat - soustředila bych se na liberální opozici a na ANO, protože fašisty emaily asi nepřesvědčí. stejně tak bych spamovala babiše, protože ač je s fašounama jedna ruka, pořád je to hlavně populista a jde mu hlavně o to, aby si mohl v klidu odlívat miliardy ze státního rozpočtu
❓dát to vědět kámošstvu, i těm, kteří mají pocit, že se jich to netýká, protože nejsou queer, nebo se to k nim nedostalo, protože nejsou queer, ať nás můžou podpořit
❓dostat do mainstream médií, že se to děje a proč je to špatně, pokud tam máte kontakty (nebo i pokud kontakty nemáte, napsat do nějakých redakcí, možná?)
❓pokud na to máte a zároveň třeba nejste typ na demonstrace, poslat prašule nějakýmu spolku, kterej bude advokovat za vás. ať už se jedná o trans*parent, prague pride, konsent, jsme fér... (note - ani s jedním tímto spolkem nemám hands on zkušenost a sem tam slyším negativní ohlasy na něco, co dělají, ale toto je to, co mě napadá na místě z hlavy. máte-li lepší tipy, sem s nima)
❓dýchat, pohladit kočičku, zkusit nepanikařit. Nemyslím tím "nepanikař, nic se neděje", myslím tím "pokud to jde, nepanikař, s panickou atakou se špatně protestuje". Ten zákon je na stole, ale ještě to neprošlo a projít to nemusí. Stejně tak to může projít ve variantě, která bude blbá, ale ne likvidační (což je chabá útěcha, ale zákony jsou od toho, aby se v budoucnu měnily). Platí, že tu máme docela dost spolků a organizací, které proti tomu budou bojovat (i když si samozřejmě nemůžeme sednout se založenýma rukama a čekat, že nás ochrání jen jistota, že "máme silnou občanskou společnost").
(poslední bod věnuji hlavně tobě, člověče z mého inboxu, který nechtěl, abych ten ask zveřejňoval. posílám ti obejmutí.)
Podobných pokusů asi do budoucna bude víc, a toto je chvíle, kdy musíme posílit kamarádský vazby, mluvit s lidma, pokud na to máme sílu, sdržet spolu a dávat najevo, že tu jsme. Postavte se za svoje trans kámošstvo. Pište maily, jak z pozice "trans práva jsou lidská práva", tak z pozice "rodič, který se bojí, že jeho dítěti bude ve škole někdo kontrolovat rozkrok".
Opečujte se a držte se, vaše Linka R9
(poznámka: jsem enby a v rámci "systému" nejsem vyoutovanej, a nemám trans zkušenost s českým systémem, byť ji v následujících letech asi zkusím získat. pokud je tu něco, co je podle vás mimo, dejte mi to vědět, nebo mě doplňte v reblozích.)
(templaty mailů a další věci zkusím doplnit dneska večer.)
Templaty mailů a kontakty
psal jsem to hodně z pohledu někoho kdo není trans - sám trans zkušenost nemám a myslím, že pokud jde o vlastní zkušenost, tak si tu každý vystačíme sám
“you get frightened far too easily” i’m actually part horse on my mother’s side
Broke af?
But still interested in feeding yourself? What if I told you that there’s a woman with a blog who had to feed both herself and her young son…on 10 British pounds ($15/14 Euro) per week?
Let me tell you a thing.
This woman saved my life last year. Actually saved my life. I had a piggy bank full of change and that’s it. Many people in my fandom might remember that dark time as when I had to hock my writing skills in exchange for donations. I cried a lot then.
This is real talk, people: I marked down exactly what I needed to buy, totaled it, counted out that exact change, and then went to three different stores to buy what I needed so I didn’t have to dump a load of change on just one person. I was already embarrassed, but to feel people staring? Utter shame suffused me. The reasons behind that are another post all together.
AgirlcalledJack.com is run by a British woman who was on benefits for years. Things got desperate. She had to find a way to feed herself and her son using just the basics that could be found at the supermarket. But the recipes she came up with are amazing.
You have to consider the differing costs of things between countries, but if you just have three ingredients in your cupboard, this woman will tell you what to do with it. Check what you already have. Chances are you have the basics of a filling meal already.
Here’s her list of kitchen basics.
Bake your own bread. It’s easier than you think. Here’s a list of many recipes, each using some variation of just plain flour, yeast, some oil, maybe water or lemon juice. And kneading bread is therapeutic.
Make your own pasta–gluten free.
She gets it. She really does. This is the article that started it all. It’s called “Hunger Hurts”.
She has vegan recipes.
A carrot, a can of kidney beans, and some cumin will get you a really filling soup…or throw in some flour for binding and you’ve got yourself a burger.
Don’t have an oven or the stove isn’t available? She covers that in her Microwave Cooking section.
She has a book, but many recipes can be found on her blog for free. She prices her recipes down to the cent, and every year she participates in a project called “Living Below the Line” where she has to live on 1 BP per day of food for five days.
Things improved for me a little, but her website is my go to. I learned how to bake bread (using my crockpot, but that was my own twist), and I have a little cart full of things that saved me back then, just in case I need them again. She gives you the tools to feed yourself, for very little money, and that’s a fabulous feeling.
Tip: Whenever you have a little extra money, buy a 10 dollar/pound/euro giftcard from your discount grocer. Stash it. That’s your super emergency money. Make sure they don’t charge by the month for lack of use, though.
I don’t care if it sounds like an advertisement–you won’t be buying anything from the site. What I DO care about is your mental, emotional, and physical health–and dammit, food’s right in the center of that.
If you don’t need this now, pass it on to someone who does. Pass it on anyway, because do you REALLY know which of the people in your life is in need? Which follower might be staring at their own piggy bank? Trust me: someone out there needs to see this.
Reblogging for all the impoverished students. Jack is the breadline queen. And if you don’t need this - donate to your nearest food bank, stat.
Reblogging for students, working folks, and everyone who’s ever had to choose between essentials at the store because you can only afford milk OR bread, not both.
Her blog is called Cooking on a bootstrap now
Here’s an up to date link

reblogging and adding another very useful website of cheap recipes: budgetbytes.com
Sadly the updated link now auto-redirects to something called sonsanddaughterslondon.com which looks like some kind of Indonesian gambling site???
Jack’s site is now a wordpress, which can be found here:

*through gritted teeth* the world is GOOD. people are kind. Humans are NOT inherently selfish. you will make it through this year. recovery is possible. people you don't know yet will love you. You are going to do things you can't even imagine right now. You are going to read a rlly good book. You are going to eat some rlly good food. You are going to experience joy again. Things can get better. Situations can change. You can choose to be kinder. The world can change for the better.
