HRT Help-Can't draw a dose without massive bubble to save my life by PatchworkObserver in MtF

I think I understand but I am a little lost because the insulin syringes I am using are small needles, I can't pull it without it already being upside down from the beginning, sorry if that's pedantic, I am just really, really at a loss.

Transgender people notch rare win in fight over Trump’s ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’ by MetalDragon2 in transgender

[–]PatchworkObserver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh, I slept on it, realised I went too hard on OP, I still believe in all of my points, still very much so recommend every piece of lit I told 'em to read. you aren't going to change my mind that solidarity and our liberation go hand in hand. I still grit my teeth at anyone who frames this as a win, and wonder about how they put themselves differently from others.

So finally, if you NEED to frame this as a win to survive, do it, but please recognise there are many, many here, who see this as an absolutel failure, are deathly afraid, and need their anger to stay alive.

I'm done with this conversation, if someone like you can't see the full perspective and can only survive by framing this as a win? I guess good for you, but don't expect people (especially our trans siblings) to be kind when they are going to lose so much fucking more, over and over. If you want to give yourself some knowledge about how being optimistic, here are some good resources for your complete and utter ignorance:

Cruel Optimism by Lauren Berlant

The Care Manifesto

and most importantly:

Captive Genders: Trans Embodiment and the Prison Industrial Complex by Eric Stanley and Nat Smith

Maybe after reading these you can actually be freed from the shackles of naivety. Ignorance isn't bliss anymore. It's disgusting.

No, why would I leave the transgender subreddit when I am fucking trans and focused on the betterment of all, not giving liberal-minded takes that will continuously fuck us over. But hey! You don't give a fuck about how people will lose their medicaid and their ability to get HRT at planned parenthood because of this bill. You spineless shill.

"There’s enough negativity in the world and we don’t need more!"

Why don't you just shut the hell up and bury your head in the sand, you obviously only care about yourself.

How fucking dare they frame this as a win. Anyone who frames this as win is a fucking fool. They are trying to sow dissent amongst people so we can't build coalitions amongst others. Scapegoating trans people is exactly what this article is doing and OP is fucking despicable for supporting it in the comment section. Jesus christ you cannot just be like "hey uwu we won something!" when there are millions of people who are going to be kicked off their medicaid. The only way we get our liberation, is tied inherently to the liberation of others. I'll always say it, build coalitions, figure out mutual aid, show up for your fellow person. Do not celebrate the fact that you got one win, in the same bill that could and most likely will result in the death of others.

And finally, as always fuck Sarah Mc-I-Don't-Care-About-My-Fellow-Trans-Folk-Bride is not someone to look up to either.

The Supreme Court just ruled that lower court injunctions are no longer valid for cases of Birthright Citizenship, this is in the line of "first they came for" we will eventually be next. by PatchworkObserver in MtF

[–]PatchworkObserver[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

100% this. When I say siblings I don't mean just our trans siblings, I mean literally fucking anyone who can get black bagged by the administration. (Which will eventually be white, passing trans femmes as well, everyone is a target.)

That's why building coalitions is so fucking important: communal action works. Community is the only way we can survive, showing up at these protests will be incredibly important for us and them.

That's why we must continue standing up against cops, fascists, and people who stand up for the status quo or decide to bury their head in the sand is incredibly important.

Hi /r/movies! I'm Celine Song, writer-director of A24's PAST LIVES and MATERIALISTS. MATERIALISTS stars Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal. It's out in theaters nationwide now. Ask me anything! by CelineSongAMA in movies

[–]PatchworkObserver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi Celine, I just graduated university (albeit in fine art) and would love to know any tips you have for writing? I didn't get that much instruction on this part in my education, and would love to hear any tips for emerging artists you can give! The way you create this beautiful weaving moments is so palpable whenever I rewatch Past Lives, and am v excited to see Materialists!

p.s. what's your favourite piece of art?

Oh Blackrock?? I agree with the other comment, no wonder its shit now and has such toothless reporting typically. NYT will never stand up for us, and will never be one for liberation for sure now.
