Hey y’all. Are you looking for HRT but don’t know where to start? Worried about therapist letters and gatekeepers? I made this two years ago and have maintained it since. EVERY informed consent HRT spot in the country. No therapist required.

I once knew a trans woman who was able to stockpile their estrogen by not taking their their dose before getting the blood test and telling their doctor they had. This led to the doctor upping their dosage, and allowed them to build a good back supply in case of HRT bans.

It's finally time! Trans girl scout cookies! Trans kids are under attack nationwide. The Girl Scouts has accepted trans girls and non-binary kids for years now. Let's make the lives of some trans scouts a little bit better and get tasty cookies to boot. Thread of links here! 🧵

Last night, over 450 people signed up to testify against a gender affirming care ban in Texas, HB1686. They cut the mic early and went home. So those who showed up stayed and staged a mass demonstration in the capitol. Protect trans kids!

This is where we are heading. Ben Shapiro is now advocating for local communities to pass laws stopping "men from wearing women's clothes in public," although he says "pants on women might be ok." This regressive anti-trans ideology harms us all.

Amazing news. Kansas City may be attempting to buck its state level law and become a safe haven city for trans people. Would love to see more of this!

Oh my god. Remember the women who took up the bench yesterday so that Rep Zephyr would not have any seat outside the chamber? I am being told that the woman closest to the camera in blue pants is Speaker Regier's mother.

It was never about protecting kids. Yesterday in Utah, Senator Escamilla called Republicans bluff by making them vote on banning teenage breast implants in an anti-trans healthcare ban. All Republicans voted against it. Subscribe to support my work.

Oh my god. Missouri AG just essentially banned gender affirming care for most trans adults via emergency rule. Requires 3 years of dysphoria, 18 months of therapy sessions, doesn't allow people with autism/depression. This is what elimination of transgender people looks like.

Major trans news. I warned, repeatedly, that drag bans would be applied to trans speakers. A trans public speaker was just banned from delivering a reading and speech in the Butte Public Library on LGBTQ history in Montana. They cited the drag ban.

Massive win for transgender people in the US 4th Circuit Court of Appeals. The US Court of Appeals rules that the Americans with Disabilities Act protects transgender people. Trans people MUST be afforded all accommodations, medical interventions, cannot be unduly targeted.

Incredible news out of Florida. Florida's gender affirming care ban has been blocked in part. The decision is complex, but this should be enough to allow care to proceed soon. This is the first (of many) wins against gender bans this year. "Gender identity is real."

A Louisiana Republican rejected efforts to ban gender affirming care for trans youth. The state will now be a safe haven. He cited an underreported bombshell Louisiana study showing care is safe, effective, and important. Subscribe to support my work.

Hmmmm... Republicans loving guns until a minority starts arming themselves in response to people calling for their eradication and targeting them through legislation and violence. Funny how that happens.

Florida just announced that it is ending medicaid coverage for transgender ADULTS for their gender affirming care. As expected, the attacks on trans kids have progressed to attacks on medically necessary care for trans adults. The end goal is forced detransition or harm.

Big news for trans people out of Spain! Spain just drafted a new law that will allow trans youth there to change their legal gender freely at 16 years old without parental permission. For all the talk about how TERFs are taking over Europe, they are not succeeding in Spain.

John Oliver did an entire episode on trans rights and I have to say it is SO refreshing to see the old Daily Show crew come together again to stand up against attacks on the trans community. It’s a great episode. Go watch it,

New FOX News Poll shows that a huge majority of people view "families with transgender children being targets of political attacks" as a major problem. Only 15% of people say it's not a problem. And this is a FOX NEWS poll! Y'all, anti-trans politics are NOT popular.

It’s kind of fucked up when you realize that during thanksgiving all the queer people seem to be working anytime you interface with customer service and then you realize why.

This is a terrifying court decision. It’s explicitly making it so that your assigned sex at birth determined what clothes you can wear. The speed in which fascism is encroaching is unreal. This is what eradication looks like.

BREAKING: Late last night, a judge ruled that Harrison County Schools can bar our client, a trans girl, from attending her high school graduation unless she wears boy’s clothes - socks, dress shoes, pants, a button down shirt and tie.
