BE MAD BE SAD BUT DONT U DARE GIVE UP

It's important.. This list is not only for trans individuals, but also AFABs, disabled people and any person that lives in the U.S right now and isn't a straight white man!!

If moving countries is not a viable option for you, "just" moving to a blue state might be helpful!

Please be safe!

I'm scared for- and worried about you, peeps! <3

And another thing: if you have vagina, and ESPECIALLY if you tend to fuck dicks, please PLEASE consider getting an IUD if you don’t want kids. We all know they want to ban abortion, but some people don’t know they’re also going after contraceptives. Rn access to contraceptives is protected by only a Supreme Court case (you know like what protected abortion), so that can go away. Contraceptives can be regulated to be in accessible or prohibitively expensive, but they can’t take an IUD out of your body (at least not in the foreseeable future). It’s good for sometimes 5 years.

I want to say this now because I was on the phone with a gyno for like 20 minutes on hold and only got a consultation today (which you need before they can schedule an appointment) because someone cancelled last minute.

I know people have had bad experiences with the IUD I know people have had excellent experiences. I’m going to document mine step by step so you know some things you can expect, if you’re thinking about it.

For context: i’m 25, have insurance through my job and live in a blue state, so my experience might be different/faster/easier etc. than yours.

Hey.

Hey.

Breathe.

Put down that gun. Close the medicine bottle. Untie that rope. Drop that blade. Please.

I want you to ignore the red right now. I want you to click on the breakdown of the votes. I know it says he won, but I want you to ignore that right now.

Look at all the people who voted blue.

Look at all the people who stood up for you. Look at the majority of people who tried to pass the abortion amendment in Florida. Look at all the people who voted for equal rights in New York. Look at how close some of these percentage are.

Even if your state is red, there are people who have your back. There are people who will whisper "fuck state rights" as they fund your abortion in another state. There are people who will ignore that your birth certificate says M and call you Ma'am. There are so many people who wanted to help. There are MILLIONS of people who tried to help.

You are not alone. We are here for you. And we're going to carry each other for the next four years when we try again.

Trump is not the end of the world, because we won't let him be.

Make the most of the next two months

Feel free to add on.

If are living in America and are wondering what you can do now please consider contacting The White House and demanding a recount / revote!

Check out the ALCU -> The ACLU is an organization that specifically fights back against harmful laws and bills - they fought trump off RAPIDLY during his first presidency and theyre overall good for keeping track of resources and stuff!

Ensure your vote is counted through Vote Curing!

Sign this Petition : Jane Byson (the maker of petition) ;

"We need a recount and revote for the 2024 election. An investigation needs to be looked into after Trumps sudden rise after all favor was pointed towards Kamala Harris. This isn't superstition when there was proof that she was in the lead. Something is wrong and the people of the US shouldn't suffer for it."

For those who are contemplating suicide or self harm consider contacting these Hotlines! Keep Fighting Please, and to those who have more resources PLEASE add on.

IF YOU LIVE IN THE US, PLEASE READ THIS

Posting this from the bird app since I hope it can help people.

People have been contacting the White House directly to demand a recount, especially since there has been evidence that not every ballot has been counted and will be thrown away if it hasn't been cured.

The link to contact the White House is here!

The following screenshot comes from here!

If you need help writing something, check under the cut! I've provided a prewritten response from one of the replies!

This is a reminder to:

Form communities. Tell your people that you love them. Protect one another. Check in on one another. None of us are alone.

I hope none of you disappear in the coming days. Seriously don't do anything that can't be undone.

I know i'm just a random person you follow online but I mean it. People (all kinds of marginalised people too!) Have survived all types of horrible times and managed to find happiness eventually. If for no one else, survive for them. And also, try to survive because the people making you despair don't want you to live. Don't give this to them. Don't give your life. The best thing you can do is cling to it with everything you've got.

You know what I cannot wait for? The day we have an election and we don’t have to say vote like your life depends on it because it does. This man has seeped into every facet of our lives for almost TEN years. Think about that. With one simple vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz he’s cooked-forever, and we won’t have to deal with that urgency again. We can have real policy debates and make actual progress again, once he is gone for good. So let’s do this thing one last time let’s vote like our lives depend on it and get back a better politic.

Do not click that TMZ article. There are pictures of the fall with zero warning and completely uncensored.

Not my meme but figured I'd share for those about to ride out the storm

Explanation: The vast majority of homeowners insurance plans do not cover flood damage. You need separate flood insurance. Yes. I think it’s stupid too.

tweet 1: "happy international lesbian day, if you use the orange and pink flag i designed and have a few bucks to spare i would really appreciate any help at all"

tweet 2: "ive been skipping meals to afford to see a specialist so even $1 helps. i have no family to ask for help."

This international lesbian day I hope some support can be extended to Emily Gwen. The flag they have made has been used by many corporations and they do not receive any money made from those sales. They are also dealing with housing insecurity and have many financial problems

their ko-fi:

“If you CHOOSE to stay in one of those evacuation areas-” we need to have public transportation running out of evacuation zones and free public storm shelters before you can say bullshit like that. we need to have free wheelchair ramp instillation on homes. we need to have free out of state pet boarding facilities. we need public infrastructure for the people in flood zones since these hurricanes are only getting worse and they are not going to stop.

You know who died during Katrina? Largely it was the elderly and the destitute. The people who could not evacuate. Evacuating is a great thing to do, you should do it if you’re able and ask for help from friends and loved ones of you cannot. But you cannot fucking shame people who cannot evacuate while sitting on the safety of your couch in your suburban home.

The way people talk about hurricanes is so unbelievably out of touch and classist and straight up evil.

There is a shuttle out! Check out FloridaDisaster.org for evac resources.

Use code MILTONRELIEF for a uber free ride to a shelter if you're in a county with evac order.

"fundraiser for displaced members of the queer community in lebanon. share & d.nate" please help

Please help genuinely even if its just a reblog

Please please keep sharing and donating only 5k left to help so many deserving people especially the queer community of Lebanon. 500 provides a month of rent and utilities for a queer person in need and they only need a fraction of that from a handful of people to get their goal.

My friends who have never experienced flooding, and who are about to deal with it from this storm, please remember:

1. NO. YOU CANNOT MAKE IT THROUGH THAT WATER ON THE ROAD. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'RE DRIVING. TURN. AROUND.

2. DO NOT GO WADING THROUGH THE WATER. EVEN IF YOU JUST WANT TO SEE HOW DEEP IT IS. THAT. WATER. IS. CONTAMINATED.

3. IT IS CALLED FLASH FLOODING FOR A REASON. THE WATER RISES AND SURGES IN A FLASH. STAY. HOME.

4. If you're at risk of flooding, raise up any of your belongings now. Put the legs of tall things in buckets. Know where your important documents are.

5. Stay safe.
