hey!! Welcome to my account.
Idk how you found me, but I hope you enjoy whatever time you spend here!!
My names have been changing a bit over time, so if you want the current ones please just look at my display name 💙💙
this pamphlet WILL get kids and teenagers kicked out, abused, or murdered—whether these children are transgender or not.
this is an absolutely egregious thing to have done NO MATTER WHERE YOU STAND politically. this ENDANGERS thousands of children in transphobic families.
a few nights ago my mom screamed wtf to this. no envelope, no nothing. a huge ass trans flag in the open. she called me over and asked if i was trans. if i wanted to be a girl. i said no. after that she threw it away without opening it, and we never thought much about it after.
imagine there’s some queer kid out there who already had the argument with their parents, already are on thin ice, biding their time, just trying to escape and go to college etc to finally find some peace. then this scaremongering mailer shows up. it could kill that kid.
A half-naked boy judging a fully dressed girl is actually insane. Stop raising your sons to police women’s bodies and start teaching them not to objectify women, sexualise them, or treat their own SISTERS that way
but this is HARM REDUCTION.
if you are in a car and everyone is voting on how quickly to speed off a cliff to your deaths, voting to go off slower gives you more of a chance to wrest control of the car before it’s too late.
we DO NOT need more nazis in power. what we DO need is a group of people who will be less likely to rapidly decide to lock up and execute every minority in existence nazi-style. people who at least like to Think they are reasonable enough to push to do the right thing.
your vote could be the difference between a quickening plummet into facism and a slower, and therefore EASIER TO FIGHT BEFORE IT GETS WORSE, plummet into facism.
some of the policies being pushed by the far right are genuinely further right than Nazi talking points.
It’s incredible how a trans woman lost her life to a treatable cancer in 2023. She and her family begged for any available room for her to begin treatment, yes, even on the men’s ward if it meant they would start her chemotherapy.
The hospital didn’t. They kept her separate and
your vote may have LITTLE power ON ITS OWN, but it DOES have power!! especially if WE ALL VOTE!!!!! some elections in the past have been decided by ONE VOTE!!!! that vote could be YOU!!!

i know it doesn’t seem to do all that much.
however: a relatively quick thing that MAY do nothing or MAY do at least a small bit STILL POTENTIALLY HELPS!!
voting is for HARM REDUCTION, not to eliminate the harm entirely. not participating in harm reduction leads to… more harm.
First they said Talarico was gay, then we all saw his smoke show girlfriend.
Then they said he was a vegan, but every other photo is of him eating ribs or a giant turkey leg.
I think they might be full of shit and just really bad at this.
Even if there were jobs there are 3 issues:
1. Autistic & ADHD people need to be offered jobs
2. Interviews are done wrong for autistic people
3. Most people, especially managers, are scared of autism.
"nobody wants to work anymore" is such a tired thing to say
people just don't want to:
• burn 90 minutes a day stuck in traffic for a job
• miss their kid's entire childhood for a paycheck
• work decades straight just to afford a one-bedroom apartment
• get let go over a text message with no notice
• grind 55 hours and get a 40-hour check
people aren't lazy
they're exhausted from handing over their whole life just to barely stay afloat
fix the system. stop blaming the workers.
