I Need Help

For one of my classes, I'm creating a zine on showcasing the importance of transgender stories that focuses on the positive experiences of being transgender and rejecting the notion that transness is an inherently negative experience.

Since this is a website in which I see a lot of transgender positivity, I felt that here would be a good source of information as to how other people experience transgender joy.

Experiences of Transgender Joy

This is a survey asking transgender people as to what they define transgender joy as for themselves.

This is normally when people ask to "reblog to spread the word so I can gather a large sample size," but I hate it when people tell me that I have to reblog things and I tend to not reblog out of spite. However, be aware that if you follow me, this will be on your dash several times for the next week or two, as I want to collect a lot of information. Just be warned that I can and will be mildly obnoxious about this.

Please reblog for a larger sample size.

trans person in need of mutual aid to pay rent bc we live in a hellscape

i fucken hate making these posts but i am $400 short on august rent. i’ve been trying to find the funds and delayed paying in hopes that my mid-august paycheck would be enough but it’s not. top surgery and losing my job has tanked my savings and i’m really struggling to make ends meet, so every little bit counts. don’t donate if it’ll put you in a financially uncomfortable position, but if you’ve got an extra $10 that you won’t miss, it’ll really really help get me back on my feet and keep me housed.

If you see this, just so you know I'm the original creator and you can support me by buying it on redbubble where I originally posted it

So it's popped up in my feed uncredited again.

I made this fun design and posted it on redbubble awhile back. and then people started reposting the picture, removing the water mark and not crediting me.

It looks pretty simple but I put work into this. On top of that I'm a Black disabled queer who has no money right now. If they had linked it back to my shop I wonder how many more sales I would have.

Be mindful about sharing what look like memes, this picture looks pretty clear at being a redbubble sticker design. Also I've seen "memes" where it was clear so much work was put into it reposted with 0 credit. It might seem not that harmful but for us creators, especially when we create to help supplement our income it heartbreaking.

Dear whoever stole my work originally, you put the effort to remove the watermark, why couldn't you put the link back to my store? It's also very "funny" stealing a design about paying trans people for their time/energy and actively stopping the trans creator from making money.

hey!! i have decided to start crowdfunding for top surgery while i can. i am a transmasc nonbinary guy from texas and a chronically broke college student, and i would like to get top surgery as soon as possible, preferably before my 23rd or 24th birthdays. top surgery would benefit me physically as binding is unsafe for me a lot of the time and has caused damage to my rib cage after almost 8 years of binding, as well as benefit me mentally and emotionally.

please share and donate if you’re able to! it’s a lot of money unfortunately but definitely will be worth it in the end!! https://gofund.me/e16c79d0

Reblog to punch a government offical

To all the LGBTAQ+ Muslims, you are not dirty. You are not a walking contradiction. You are beautiful and incredible. I want all my Muslim brothers, sisters and friends to know this that Allah has created you the way you are, and you are a child of his. 

He loves you for who you are and what you do. You are a perfectly valid human and deserve every bit of happiness this world has to offer. This year we celebrate Eid-ul-fiter in the month of Pride to acknowledge our existence and embrace our identity. 

Non Muslims are highly encouraged to reblog this post. 

Islamophobic people, terfs, Nazis, Trump supporters and any lgbtaq+ phobic people DO NOT INTERACT. 

In regards of the Trump government scraping all trans inclusion in its queer information portion of its websites I have made this thing. Spread the word. Don't let them pretend we never existed.

P.S: Don't like! Reblog! <3

EDIT: Well this got a lot of attention! I got a few users asking to print or repost my art and I am unimaginably grateful to everyone's interest, especially since it's a really simple drawing I made on a whim haha! Anyone who is looking to print these out to hang or hand out or repost on another platform is free to do so, although I ask you to credit me and let people know it's from my Tumblr profile! If anyone wishes to do anything else with my art or post and wants to clarify what I consent to then they can message me privately and I'll explain! <333 all my love to my queer siblings

EDIT: I made an LGBTQIA+ version with a focus on trans and intersex folks, it's on my pinned if you prefer this version of the acronym.

i’m getting evicted for being trans & I need help. 

hey guys. my name’s chris. i was born christina. from the time I was five years old, I knew I was trans. and I spent my high school years being picked on for being too boyish. Art was my escape. Through art, I could draw my body exactly how I wanted it to look.

This year I turned 18, and finally told my mom and dad I’m trans. I wanted to do it before Christmas, so I could spend my first Christmas out of hiding. I knew my parents would be upset, but I didn’t expect them to kick me out.

Sadly, they turned on me. they said they loved me, but that i’d be a bad influence on my five-year-old brother. a big part of me is relieved that I’ll be out of the house, but the other part of me is freaking the fuck out. i’m jobless and broke. i have three more weeks before I have to pay rent and groceries all on my own. I’ll be looking for a job, but in the meantime I'm desperate to have the security of a month’s rent.

Please PLEASE help me. if you can even give $5 … it will help so much. 

PLEASE DONATE HERE and spread the word.
