Since Pride Month just started in the US, I wanna talk about something I heard recently from someone who is an ally and was well meaning but misinformed:
There are no trans children getting gender affirming surgery. The very rare, less than .04% are teenagers, getting surgery are almost entirely chest related and almost entirely cis-male, GETTING REDUCTION SURGERY TO AFFIRM THEIR GENDER GIVEN AT BIRTH. Study linked.
"Oh but the doctors could still do it, legality doesn't stop people"
Healthcare is a FOR PROFIT business in the US. Doctors are currently letting women who need abortions bleed out, get sepsis, and DIE because they are afraid of losing their medical license. You think that Doctors, nurses, entire surgical teams, entire hospitals, pharmacies, rehabilitation specialists, and licensed therapists are all in cahoots and risking their medical careers for what most surgeons would consider OPTIONAL surgery and not GENDER AFFIRMING HEALTHCARE? With the no insurance?
THINK. I EMPLORE YOU TO RESEARCH. DO NOT BELIEVE THE RHETORIC THAT IS BECOMING 'COMMON KNOWLEGE' IN THIS COUNTRY.
Happy Pride to my Trans brothers and sisters and to my non-binary bitches, too.
HAPPY PRIDE, FUCKHOLES <3
This cross-sectional study uses a national dataset to examine the prevalence of gender-affirming surgical procedures among minors and adults
My family is homeless and we're struggling to keep ourselves afloat while we look for work. These last couple of months have been especially miserable with us being sick so much and mental health being at an all time low. This has been dragging on way longer than I thought it could and I'm feeling close to giving up.
I'm asking around for help covering food, medicine, and temporary shelter while I try to get us out of this situation. We've been getting plenty of likes and shares but barely anything has been coming in these last few weeks. I don't know how much longer we can keep going like this without support. Anything helps.
Real transfeminists love all trans people btw. Regardless of their gender, sex, presentation, status of transistion, or otherwise. It is not transfeminism if you reject any trans person on the basis of any of these characteristics.

"I am going back home, we found more rust and mold in the bathroom, while trying to move the furniture it broke leaving rust and shards everywhere.
We did a quick cleaning but I would like to be able to take all 9 of us for tetanus shots since last time we tired to fundraise for the bus/taxis we failed.
If the free shots are not available we might need to pay in a private clinic u_u"
We're exposed to mold and rust constantly, I'd like to keep my family protected just in case please!!!!

"Usually I would just endure until next week to try to get my meds but every time I go without them I notice I don't last as much as before until I have to make a run to the hospital. [I remember their hospitalization, it was really scary]...
I needed $125 to get them [monday] half price but every other day I need $250...

Son suffering dysphoria
Nov 23 My eldest son had one of the worst nights in his life. All I can say is we managed to keep him safe through the night, he is safe at home. He thought he could keep raw dogging his dysphoria but he clearly needs to start HRT and transitioning. He is very avoidant of asking for anything because knows we barely get the money for food and other basics. I don't want to lose my son because of money. I want him to have access to a happy life. What if I'm not there next time to stop him?"
Transcript: vouched for by transgendz
transgendz is vetted by scam-buster kyra 45
"I can vouch for Calli @chingaderita! Ive known the family for several years now and they’ve consistently shown proof, was vetted by Kyra on my request when they first messaged, I’m quite sure, the search function on blogs is just awful and I’m having a hard time finding such an old post. But I talk to Calli often, we’ve had conversations in English and Spanish, and everything they say tracks with the proof provided. I just thought I’d say something bc I know you’ve been helping them too. Thank you for all you do.
About Calli
Calli, is a nonbinary parent dealing with chronic illness, chronic pain, unemployment and severe depression taking care of children, in-laws, and rescue cats . Calli is a kind person constantly boosting other people’s campaigns despite their families situation and limited time at compute cafes Calli in posts has discussed: has tumors, problems with gallbladder and liver, chronic joint pain. And a horrible pain in jaw that
We really need meds soon, has not been able to afford them in weeks, and we don’t want another hospitalization
“My gallbladder and liver need constant medication to not get further fucked up, I have a bunch of untreated tumor/growths I hope my healthcare will deal with at some point, I have chronic pain which affects my hips, back and left leg and sometimes my leg dislocates at random, just this August I’ve had two periods in less than 28 days, this is a common occurrence almost every month, and I’ve been dealing with teeth pain so intense it causes headaches, hurts my jaw, neck and now I have pain inside my right ear I suspect it’s related to my teeth pain.”
Summary of problems overall
*They have been helping boost many campaigns, gaza and otherwise (and have asked me to boost these three while their internet is unreliable):
(1) AHMED’S [campaign] IS VERY FORGOTTEN, PLEASE, KEEP SHARING!!! – @/chingaderita on Tumblr 2)Donate to Trapped Family in Gaza Appeals for Help to Survive, organized by Abdallah Alanqar
(3) Hani €5,688/€25,000 – @/chingaderita on Tumblr
“We really REALLY need help with the court fees and paperwork [get done before aAugust.], we just want to ensure our kids will be safe from my family in case I die, due to my deteriorating health.”
now Personal health problems
Sep 7 tooth pain, Couldn’t rest with this damn tooth pain pain pain soainIsbsk,ndl .zlz
Maybe I should have added this to the main body of the post but I’m on my second period in less than 30 days, cause my liver and gallbladder trying to kill me isn’t enough I have many tumors growing in different parts of my body.

Thank you I did pay my healthcare!!! I was hoping with the extra I could get my meds but we ended up using it for food and taking my MiL to the hospital because of gastrointestinal pain, she had to stay under supervision for a whole night and is scheduled for more tests on Tuesday. We’re pushing her healthcare services to schedule her for a gastroenterologist as soon as possible, she has been unable to eat which has been a terrible combination with her diabetes. Can we ask for help affording her ensure bottles so she can at least eat that? We’ll need to do something about the humidity and mold soon, we get trapped in the rooms often, last night it took us over an hour to be able to reopen a door even with both my partner and me pushing. We need to get adult diapers btw. Please, anything helps!!!!
You know, it’s real nice that we got help to pay the vet bills and help my kid keep his cat safe and healthy but wow. It is obvious we do not matter at all. The moment our cat needed help we got the goals, both times But I’ve been trying to get my meds for weeks or months at a time and nothing. It’s real hard not to fucking cry
I know it’s hard for everyone but please, keep sharing, anything ANYTHING helps. We’ve been getting a bit of food and paying little by little what we owe at the corner store but the upcoming card payment is $190 and my meds are $130 and then let’s not forget my healthcare renewal. I also bring bad news, we’re starting with water shortages just like last year, we’ve gone from having 4 days of water a week to 1-2 if we’re lucky. Our only toilet is busted and there are 9 people here who use it. My kid still needs attention for a UTI he’s had for a couple of months now. And my partner has 3 ingrown nails and 2 big cuts on his feet he’s kept unattended for weeks. I’d hate to up the goal but we need every help we can get!!
more documentation from 2023. and
Went back on my blog to find proof of the fire where my in-laws lost everything, this other one with pictures and proof that I’ve been sick and struggling to get my medication since August 2023. Just felt like having things organized and maybe make another blog to keep all proof I can save since we lost a lot of information and pictures/videos when we sold our phones and lost the computer. Not to mention my blog is way older but I have no idea how to enter my archive :3
Please share/reblog, and maybe donate if you can. DM @/virovac if want to be removed @ink-and-teeth @ibtisams @sexygaywizard
