Hey folks, hoping to have a semi-permanent thread for compiling resources to make finding really cool posts easier. Please suggest links and info in the comments below. I consider this necessary because there's a lot of things we would like pinned but obviously things get very crowded quickly. This thread will start sparse and I will edit new things in as people suggest them.
These posts are done by a transgender mutual aid group looking to help people in unusual circumstances. Please contact me if you need help with HRT info, their posts here are for donors only.
These posts are done by a Hexbear user that I have verified as legit, offering unique information about trans DIY hrt, including quality sources, sanitation, storage recommendations. Verified by very expensive industrial chemistry equipment.
There posts are also done by a Hexbear user that is making an open source DIY electrolysis setup.

https://www.transacademy.org/ - Trans Academy is a VRChat group that provides help/community for trans people. Among other things, they do free bi-weekly voice training seminars (in VRChat but also streamed on Discord and Twitch) and make-up tutorials (on Discord), and the classes include content for transmasc, enby, transfem peeps. VRChat is free and doesn't require VR (using the desktop or android app), but you can also participate in most of the class stuff through the Discord.
This resource thread is GOLD for anyone navigating HRT safely—especially for those of us doing it without easy access to doctors. As a trans refugee, finding support like this means the world. If you want to hear my story and how I’m surviving and thriving against the odds, check out my profile.
seems to have been cleaned up a lot
I still have a grudge against the Gender Dysphoria Bible until they clean up number 15. I really want to see it fixed, but it's still problematic if this stays.
CW: transmedicalism
So, it is literally impossible for a person to identify as trans and not experience gender dysphoria. By the WPATH requirements anyone can identify as trans. Ergo, the statement “you do not have to have dysphoria to be transgender” is a logical paradox.
When you put "anyone can be trans" right after that, you don't help the eggs who don't think they experience dysphoria and read the medical guidelines — they'll walk away thinking that sure anyone could be a trans person, but not them because they don't have dysphoria. (Even if you're a transmed, this should concern you because eggs don't necessarily know that what they are experiencing is gender dysphoria, even with the guidelines.)
It's certainly not a logical paradox because the condition of not having dysphoria does not imply not transgender.
Have any better links to replace it with? Also I think they have a github you can edit
I kind of hate that I don't. I almost wish the site didn't also have decent information so it would be easier to dismiss.
I'm just sharing in the hopes that it might save some trans person from being thrust back in denial by this site like I was the first time I encountered it
Maybe try to get in contact with them to edit the problematic bits out? They seem amenable. Report back if successful
I cracked my egg a little over a month ago. Took four decades.
I read the Gender Dysphoria Bible from beginning to end pretty much. When I got to 15, my takeaway was the sense of joy I feel being femme and the despair I have felt my whole life trying to be masc, is gender euphoria/dysphoria. And that I should call the clinic and set up an appointment.
So, it helped me break through a lot of denial. And I do see how the part you mentioned could be problematic, especially if someone didn't read the document as thoroughly as I did. But I am immensely grateful that I came across it when I did.
I did find it useful the second time around, but I wasn't ready for it the first time when I couldn't even recognize those feelings as being gender-related at all. I was so close though... I could tell it was dysphoria :wail:
Great work comrade thank you
several links that i have used before:

yay! edited my descriptions just now to be more specific/less informal you can copy those in if you want :)
updated!
So I'm still pretty early in my transition but this has been pretty valuable to me so far: https://www.transacademy.org/

Here's a video of a voice training seminar to give you an idea of what that's like..
This is their Twitch channel which often streams their events and classes.
Also, if you decide to join the Discord or VRChat group, feel free to DM me and I'll give you my username so we can link up.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
After seeing https://hexbear.net/post/3777184, I think it would be a good idea to edit the descriptions of links in here that are only relevant to transfems (e.g. https://hrtcafe.net/) so that transmascs don't waste their time looking at them.
Do you have suggestions for transmascs on that
I wish I did, but it's obviously more difficult for them since testosterone is more tightly regulated
It seems some of the sites there have it though they really need a t category

I got another great one for fashion that @[email protected] gave me :3

A very cool person just posted this list of links on discord:

Thanks! Will add them
Here’s an awesome list of trans resources specific to Ireland that I came across: https://bit.ly/irishtransresources
The monero guide is permanently deleted. Which I think is a real shame. There is space for an accessible explanation on how to get crypto for hrt, since it's so annying and difficult to do, but sadly essential.
