There is so much more I could say about this, but there is not enough room. Remember to check with reality rather than believing conspiracy theories promoted, supported, and funded by white nationalist hate groups.
Missouri is proposing 20% of the nation’s anti-trans legislation this session. Gender-affirming care for young folks is on the edge of being criminalized (so much love to trans friends in states where that has already happened).
Please keep up with the anti-trans legislation in your state and combat it. There are lives at stake.
Transphobes do not touch this post.
Image ID: a 10-image cartoon comic featuring Joey, a boy with short hair.
Image 1: Joey, upset, gesticulates towards an open laptop. Text reads: The reality of St. Louis trans kids. Last week, a former (non-medical) employee of Washington University’s Pediatric Transgender Center was featured in a viral article about how the clinic was “rushing” kids into medical care and “mutilating” us. Every single thing she said was a lie, but the media loves it. Footnote reads: I wouldn’t give any more attention to this, but it is immediately endangering the lives of trans people. Missouri has launched a state investigation and is actively attempting to criminalize gender-affirming care based on conspiracy theories.
Image 2: Joey points to a map of the United States where Missouri is singled out, and a map of Missouri where St. Louis is indicated with a star. The text reads: The Transgender Center, located in St. Louis, Missouri, has been the target of hateful attacks from the far-right state legislature for years. It is part of Washington University Hospital, a branch of a prestigious private university.
Image 3: A younger Joey injects his T shot in his leg while someone takes a photo. Text reads: I can tell you that everything in the article is false because I received care at the Transgender Center beginning at 16 years old. My medical transition has brought me nothing but joy. What a gift it is to be trans!
Image 4: A younger Joey sits on a couch and stims with a tangle fidget toy. Text reads: No one is “rushed”. I sat on many waitlists, had to have 6 months of specialized gender therapy and a diagnosis of gender dysphoria before even being referred to the Center, and I was denied as “not ready enough” by an endocrinologist the first time I finally got an appointment. Footnote reads: If you’re curious about what it looks like to be a trans kid, I did another piece on that! Check out tinyurl.com/transkidscomictumblr.
Image 5: A colorful map of the United States shows how many states have a Negative Gender Identity Policy Tally and how many states have criminalized gender affirming care. Joey holds a credit card. Text reads: St. Louis’ Pediatric Transgender Center is the only one in the region, meaning the waitlists are extremely long. Plus, no one in the only industrialized country without free healthcare is getting medical care for fun. Many American trans folks have to fundraise for our care.
Image 6: Joey, distressed, sits on a couch while talking on the phone. The person on the other end says: “That’s me!” Text reads: This former employee spoke about specific cases, and patients have been able to identify themselves. She shared our private medical info and called us horrifying.
Image 7: This is split into two panels. In the first, Joey holds up a box of condoms and a packet of birth control pills. Texts reads: She especially hated trans men such as myself, saying that trans ideology was destroying “girls”. She lamented about hormones making us “sterile”, which is a complete lie. We trans mascs have to actively prevent pregnancy. In panel two stands a doctor. Text reads: Every time I had an appointment at the Center, doctors reminded me: Remember: testosterone is not a contraceptive! Footnote reads: The wonderful Erin Reed wrote a breakdown debunking all the lies in the article. See tinyurl.com/erinreedmissouri.
Image 8: Joey, masked, sits at a circular table with his brother, an unmasked boy with fluffy short hair. Joey’s brother is showing him his phone. Text reads: Major newspapers continue to platform these complete lies because they bring in engagement and money. The Washington Post tracked down my little brother’s personal cell phone number to try to get in contact with our mom – the president of an organization supporting trans kids in Missouri. Freaky, right?
Image 9: Joey, looking disgusted, leans against a door frame while talking on a cell phone. Text reads: But no one wants to talk with me, the adult who medically transitioned at this clinic as a minor and has not “desisted” in six years. The Washington Post reporter, who didn’t know anything about trans people, talked with me for 20 minutes and used a sentence of mine in an article about “both sides of the debate”. She didn’t mention that this former employee is being legally represented by a recognized anti-LGBT hate group, nor that all of her claims are unsupported by reality or science.
Image 10: Joey looks angry and gesticulates. Beside the drawing are two photos of Joey, one of him happy in front of a trans flag, and the other of him drawing up testosterone to take his first T shot. Text reads: There is no debate. There are trans people, and there are people who want us dead. There is truth and there are conspiracy theories. Where is my viral article in a major paper?

honestly i think it's about damn time we start promoting violence against right-wingers, even if it's just as satire. like, first of all, at this point it's self-defense - they not only promote but actively commit violence against us. tolerance is a peace treaty and they're never going to follow the rules. make them afraid to be shitty people. commit crimes* against nazis, against terfs, against politicians that pass laws that cost lives.
the biggest problem is that the legal system is biased in their favor, so people who do this have to be ready to accept the consequences and/or prepared to fight back. and those of us that can't do that need to put as much collective pressure on the legal system as we can to make the lives of those affected by the incarceral system easier and better.
if we don't want an outright genocide at the hands of these fuckers, we need to start pushing back in every direction. i will gladly admit that i am too much of a coward to risk facing the united states prison complex more than i already am by sending this ask and running the blog funny-quirky-crime-ideas, but i am more than happy to get on my feet and start pushing with every legal force i have.
i've been thinking about running for a small-scale political position, think local board of education. it's a step up from voting and even if i'm the only one there like this, i might at least be able to provide enough pushback to make somewhat of a difference. even if i don't get in at all, i can send a message.
we are here. we have always been here. we will always be here. we will fight for as long as we have to. we can't be exterminated. they can't get rid of us. so they'd better get over themselves and tolerate our existence or get out of our way, because we belong here. Queer people deserve to live. People of color deserve to live. Disabled people deserve to live. Jewish people deserve to live. Fat people deserve to live. Sick people deserve to live. Poor people deserve to live. Homeless people deserve to live.
All of us deserve to live, to thrive, to enjoy life without being forced to work for a sub-living wage in this hell-world. We all deserve better.
other people can send that message, too. i think it's about time we start working our way up the political ladder. i think leftists who feel helpless and hopeless should run for small-level government positions. the more of us there are, the louder we send that message. there are lots of low-level government positions in various areas that have nobody filling them. start with those.
if they're going to treat us like vermin to be exterminated, then let's infest their machine and act like it.
*for legal reasons this is a `joke`
Nothing to add.

hey y'all. how about instead of talking about the fucking wizard game and jk rowling until the heat death of the universe, we talk about real legislative threats on our freedoms that are happening right fucking now.
republicans in my state, missouri, have proposed a bill that would make it illegal for teachers to teach anything about lgbtq issues to students from kindergarten all the way to fucking 12th grade. only licensed mental health professionals, *with parental permission*, can broach the subject to students.
a seperate bill proposes that trans kids be forced to play sports with other kids of their assigned gender at birth, banning any gender affirming care for minors, and criminalizing public drag performances by up to a year in jair and a $2,000 fine.
no doubt adding fuel to the fire, very recently an ex-practitioner at the gender clinic that quite literally saved my life has written a hit piece about washington university's transgender clinic. republicans are calling her a whistleblower. her name is jamie reed, and she describes herself as a queer woman and a progressive, and is apparently married to a trans man. here's an article about that as well, but it is flawed in my opinion (claims with no source that the effects of hrt and puberty blockers are unknown), so read it critically: here.
i cannot stress enough that this clinic saved my life when i was younger. i say that with full sincerity. i've received hrt and top surgery from them and i could not be happier. they connected me to a gender affirming therapist when i desperately needed one. i have friends who transitioned through the same clinic as well, and they are thriving in their gender identities. i suspect that the clinic is going to come under fire soon-- more than it already has. i'm honestly at a loss for what to do here. best i can say is spread the word, be there for your trans friends and family, and donate to the saint louis childrens hospital who saved my life. thank you.

Something abt it/its pronouns really makes ppl lose the ability to think huh
Oh they make you uncomfortable? Well no you're not saying that your comfort is more important than other people's pronouns, you're just... not gonna use them. It's fine if you use something else instead, right?
Oh you don't want to assume they're being used in a dehumanizing way, really, you're just checking? Dang I guess there were no context clues at all that could have told you that it's much more likely that that's simply its pronouns. You just had to be certain, it's not like you're actually accusing somebody of dehumanizing another person.
Well no you're not interrogating it on its pronouns, you're just checking that this isn't internalized transphobia / exorsexism / misogyny / ..., gotta make sure this was an informed decision, right? And who's better qualified to decide whether it chose those pronouns for a good reason than you, after all?
And that's the nice options.

TW: housing insecurity vent post
I am so so tired of being in not-quite-homeless living situations. And it doesn't feel like I should be upset bc I do have a place to live? But like I'm in a Not Insulated trailer in a backyard and the only heating is a little space heater that keeps shutting off on its own, and once its cold its impossible to heat up above like 50 degrees so thats what I've been waking up to every morning. And it's better than sleeping outside FOR SURE but its still frustrating that my only other options are a couch or my car. I'm employed full time and I still can't afford to live here anymore. I want to get out of this state so badly and it just feels so hopeless, like I'm going to keep ending up in situations like this regardless of where I live for the rest of my life. I'm just so exhausted by even the thought of that.
Slight tangent but like 2 months ago I said it was the most stable and best I've ever been in my life (true at the time) (not so much now. I am doing...... Not Great) and my best friend responded "bestie you are literally homeless". It was funny bc of the sheer bluntness but also its been stuck in the back of my head ever since
#tw housing insecurity#housing insecurity#vent#I'm not even sure I actually count as housing insecure??#and i go feel really guilty complaining abt this#but also I need to vent and this is specifically a ramble account#queer#aaaahhhhhhh#this is also definitely not the worst my living situation has been#i am so tired#and I rlly need to set up an appt w my med mgr bc i am genuinely not doing okay#i had therapy yesterday which should help but#part of this spiral stems from my therapists unwavering faith that i will be successful basically#she is so convinced that i will help other people and I so want to#but it doesnt feel like that will ever happen if i cant even help myself#extra bonus content in the tags#sorry

I don't think younger/newer users fully grasp the shit show that ace discourse was around 2014-17
It was so hostile that, to this day, discussions that begin to derail just enough can make me physically nauseous, some specific mockery trigger crying sessions years later. We lost most accounts with any sort of ace positivity. There was no information, no support, and all this damage was done predominantly by other queer people.
All this to say that you, however you identify yourself, should be engaging with aphobic comments the same way you do any hate. We don't sugarcoat or try to be comprehensive with people who are blatantly racist, homophobic or terfs, so why give it a pass just because it's coming from a queer person? I see how this tolerance goes and it's done enough damage as it is.
