Please help us correct misinformation! Our hotline is being incorrectly shared as "Canada's national suicide hotline open toll free for Americans". We are not a general crisis hotline, we exist exclusively to support the trans community. Find out more @ translifeline.org

This is how I found out about the ruling. No scientifically illiterate court could ever make me deny that trans women are my sisters or that trans and non-binary identities are just as valid as my own. I’m with you always, and I’m so sorry this is yet another thing the world has thrown at you.

Some useful talking points: - hormone therapy, breast reconstruction (after cancer), and puberty blockers (early-onset) are all essential health benefits; - this proposed rule is completely ungrounded in medical science; its only purpose is to exclude a marginalized population from accessing care.

I know lots of us use Patreon to kick a few dollars to people we admire and want to support. But every new dollar you pledge from your iPhone will look like $0.70 cents to the cool person on the other side. You gotta open up the laptop to make pledges from now on; I’m sorry but it’s important.

Let’s test the mettle of this place by posting this 42 page sexy violent pokemon comic I drew when I came back from Japan about Giovanni and Lt. Surge being handsy with each other. (Content warning for a Nidoking getting ripped in half)

I’m so glad @oddjayy.bsky.social is back on Bluesky! And his inventions have clearly leveled up in the time I’ve missed — so make sure he’s on your radar too!

Feel the weight of him

Hello everyone! My name’s Monica and I work on painfully exacting, impractical projects. One day I might even finish one. I also write notes. Here is a quick look at what I have on the table right now.
