Hello - I'm Anne Ogborn, the director of Trans Rescue.

We've had some wonderful folks step forward, but it's clear to us that we weren't clear in the original call for volunteers.

We're assembling a media team because we know we're going to have to educate a lot of American trans people about how to get out of the USA if we're not to be caught flat footed by the election next November. So we're asking for help primarily to develop educational content. We might do some fundraising among it (we do need money to operate), but the primary push is going to be educating fellow trans* folks on their options and about the complexities of migrating, and motivating folks to do what they need to do.

Anyway, if anyone out there would like to help with this project, please drop me a line at [email protected]

Thanks

Annie

#Gwyndolin's spot should be about 50% cool and all the way to the right#she kills one person per century to hold off the apocalypse because every other option available was already tried and wasn’t enough#that is the definition of 100% justified

do you think Dark Sun Gwyndolin, the last God-King of Anor Londo, effectively used girl power by consigning rubes to the flame as a means of prolonging her shadow regime and drawing out the suffering of the world under the dying age of fire? i love her to death but you know she's a metonym for collapsing empire

i figured it out last year. I was working in harm reduction and the place I was working also has a trans advocacy group. so we got a presentation about trans acceptance and how to deal with it in our workplace. part if the presentation was on what it means to be trans, saying that the only requirement was identifying differently than what you were assigned at birth.

thru my 20s I often thought something like "I would totally identify as non binary now if I was aware of the concept when I was younger." I could nor relate to cis people who were confident in the gender binary, but more importantly I couldn't relate to trans people who were assigned a gender at birth but KNEW they were a different gender. Like if someone was trans and said "I always knew I was a boy" it was completely alien to me, having grown up AMAB I never once felt like I was a boy. Trans people were having gender certainty I had never experienced.

Non binary never hit quite right tho, I felt like there was still some level of gender occurring, and I didn't understand it. So...

I'm agender. No gender here lol. I'm not trying to do anything about it. In life I go by he him and it doesn't bother me at all. It correctly identifies my physicality, my male privilege, etc. Sometimes I think maybe I should insist on they them because it would help normalize different pronouns, but honestly just like not really feeling being nonbinary, it doesn't bother me at all when I'm referred to as him. Its a word, that doesn't reflect my lack of gender but doesn't matter to me.

I've never told anyone this before lol. So I'm still new at thinking about what this means.

also a million other characters, but i saw someone arguing silence of the lambs wasn't transphobic the other day so that's on my mind

Is there literature I can give my conservative parents to try to assuage their fears? It's mostly for my dad as I still feel like I have a chance to convince him. But every now and then he still brings up things like detransitioners and regret rates and I want to push back on that in a constructive way. What can I give him to read?

this is a bad title but i got 3 hours of sleep so you need to be niceys

I wish it was easier for them to get gender affirming care
