He a king
“Why do men feel threatened by women?” I asked a male friend of mine. […] “I mean,” I said, “men are bigger, most of the time, they can run faster, strangle better, and they have on the average a lot more money and power.”
“They’re afraid women will laugh at them,” he said. “Undercut their world view.”
Then I asked some women students in a quickie poetry seminar I was giving, “Why do women feel threatened by men?”
“They’re afraid of being killed,” they said.
”
Sometimes I just have days where I really, really need to be reassured that people still like or want me or want to be around me and I feel bad because I can’t communicate this need to people but I know they can’t possibly instinctively know when I need this reassurance
The greatest ending in film history
*strums guitar* stop portraying trans men binding their chests with ace bandages *strum* it’s an extremely harmful method and portraying it may influence young trans men to do the same *strum* just portray them using binders or sports bras its not that fucking hard *smashes guitar on floor*

hey all. i’m less than three weeks from Officially Starting HRT™, and i really feel like my life is finally coming together after running away from home.
but i still have a few final hurdles before i can really have my shit together enough to start being able to take care of myself and my friends. i have no way to cover anything that isnt food and most basic medical stuff. so im in desperate need of a pool of funds to go towards:
public transportation money: i have a reduced fee bus card, but its run dry. i can arrange free passes for nearby medical appointments, but thats no help for job searching or getting to stores/being there for friends further than a few blocks away. i think i could easily make $20-30 stretch.
glasses: i’ve been wearing the same busted up pair for eight years, and my vision is pretty awful even with them on. i FINALLY have a new prescription, but my insurance wont do anything wrt hardware, and ill need about $50 order a pair from zenni.
name change: the cost is $170, then in the seattle area there are groups that will help reimburse legal fees when you bring in documentation that you’ve had it done. so the name is all im worried about, since i could turn around and use the reimbursement to get a new id and other changes.
facial hair removal: my skin is so ghostly pale that no matter how much i shave, i always have a very prominent beard shadow. id feel deathly unsafe working a job like this while going full time girl-mode. i know there’s some makeup tricks that can help, but ive yet to find one that actually works for me without looking really unnatural. this is the most open ended since im honestly not sure how much work it’ll take, but i imagine id only need a few before i feel safe and so could cover the rest with work income.
please reblog and spread this around. any help at all, even just a couple dollars, would mean the world to me. i’m so close to finally getting my shit together, im rly desperate for this last stretch to be handled.
paypal is audiocrowe@gmail.com,
and also have a link in my sidebar. thank you!!update: so two important things have happened recently
- my roomate got fired from one of his jobs. we’re not in danger yet, but things are going to get a lot tighter, and i obviously want to get a job as soon as i can now. id really like to make myself as safe as possible in the process though.
- i went to check my paypal and found out that there’s a slight problem. i had to disconnect it from my old bank since it was a joint account with my abusive parent, and i didnt realize that revert it to being unverified. i had to return one awesome person’s $25 pending donation because i couldn’t accept it.
was hoping to wait till i had legal info changed to open a new bank account, but i think that’s going to have to be expedited and i’ll deal with the hassle changing later.
in the mean time anything donated using Send has come through fine. so for now, if you’d like to throw anything my way, please use Send instead of Donate. im sorry i realize its probably a hasle. i just. dont have another way to make it function right now.
thank you all tho. im getting my pills this tuesday, a big ball of nerves. im really. wanting to get my life moving. and if the person who donated before never catches what happened, i still appreciate the thought all the same, it was rly generous <3
