my apologies if this has already been posted here but im sharing this. here is what someone said on twitter along w this image:

the central image text reads: “@everyone I HAVE BEEN RELIABLY INFORMED GUARDIAN JOURNALISTS ARE SNOOPING AROUND ASKING FOR TRANS PEOPLE TO TALK TO THEM ABOUT DIY HRT. THEY ARE PARTICULARLY LOOKING FOR UNDER-18S DOING DIY. SHOULDN'T NEED TO BE SAID, BUT DO. NOT. ENGAGE. SPREAD WIDELY. DO NOT ENGAGE. WE NEED THIS NOTICE SPREAD OUT VIA EVERY GRASSROOTS SUPPORT GROUP AND SOCIAL CIRCLE IN THE COUNTRY.

URGENT. IF THEY GET EVEN ONE TO TAKE PART IT BECOMES A NATIONAL CONVERSATION. TOP ALERT.

Guardian journos are apparently asking trans people about DIY. Trans followers: DO NOT SAY ANYTHING TO THEM. NOT A WORD.
I also know I’ve got cis mutuals who have written for the Guardian. Please know I’ve always thought less of you because of that.

reblogging to add the Trans Safety Network guidelines for media engagement

do not engage with the Guardian if you’re trans and a minor. do not speak with the Guardian on DIY HRT.

heck, unless the journalist is reputable and has a track record of good reporting on trans issues, do not speak with them about DIY HRT. seek out your local organisation if you are approached by a journalist.

I obviously can't verify the screenshot, but the guardian is a toilet, and the guidelines for media engagement posted are worth reading.

It's never worth engaging with an interviewer that has malicious intent. There's no good point you can make that they can't simply redact or spend an infinite amount of time figuring out how to spin in a negative. You've almost certainly seen some right wing interviewers who are so inept at this that they make themselves look bad, but even they're not worth the risk talking to. Their base does not care at best, and it'll help them at worst.

This is different from Al-Shifa:

There are images of decomposed bodies wearing what appear to be scrubs... with their hands tied. Meaning they were executed while bound. I will not be sharing them because I'm tired of showing our martyrs' bodies to people.

Amazing news!! This time, Hussam put together the biggest round of packages for the people of the camp and surrounding areas! He and his team put together 350 packages of veggies, each with 10 kilos of assorted vegetables, and to pair with that he also distributed 350 cans of feta cheese!

As you can see in the video, so many people are coming together to help these efforts, all thanks to your donations in HelpGazaChildren! Please continue donating and spreading the word — every penny means so much! Feel free to share our campaign link to other platforms as well!

Hello, I have a dentist appointment this month (birthday month! 🥳) and also need to renew my dental plan. That is around $350-450. Including this, medications, and groceries, I believe I will need about $750 in financial assistance this month. I am very grateful and appreciative for the help have previously and currently receive. Thank you for the support! ❤️

$150/800, Thank you! I went to the eye doctor yesterday which I was told would be free just to check my eyes as I developed a red spot on my eyeball. It's essentially a bruise but because they diagnosed it as something I did end up being charged $50. This and the $60 of meds I had just kind of keep sapping things quickly and I have 13 days of the month left. Anyway, please keep boosting!

$150/800 and 8 days left! This post has completely died and I am running out of time! Tomorrow is also my birthday, so I would really appreciate it if people PLEASE kept boosting!

A crowdfunding appeal has been launched to help a 29-year-old Black trans woman who lost both her legs after allegedly being thrown onto NYC subway tracks by her boyfriend. A statement from the New York City District Attorney confirms that the victim and her boyfriend were at the Fulton St. station in Brooklyn when the man is said to have seen the oncoming downtown train coming and “thrown” his girlfriend towards the tracks. “The victim was rushed to the hospital, where both of her legs had to be amputated. She also suffered from fractures to her ribs and a blood clot in her lungs,” the statement continues. When the police arrived, they found the woman under the train, reports Into. The woman has since taken part in an interview with trans activist Hope Giselle, and explains that she was on her way to a gender-affirming appointment when she alleges that she and her boyfriend got into an argument and he “threw” her onto the tracks.

This was heavily inspired by the vintage Francie outfit Tenterrific. I tried several times to measure the pleats--but felt like making a pleating template was too much trouble--so I ended up pinching the cloth before ironing, so the pleats are not as even as they could be. It's fine.

I think I’m starting to feel sick from only eating snacks and pastries during my shifts at the shelter. I can’t even afford to buy shit from the convenience store right now.

I get my first full check at the highest paying job I’ve ever had on May 3rd.

Unfortunately all of this money will go to paying rent and paying off my friend who I had borrowed a significant amount of money to pay April’s late rent. I’m finally approaching financial stability after weeks of unemployment and months more of being unable to afford my expenses on my dishwasher’s wage.

I just need some money to afford food and caffeine until May 3rd so if you could throw me $5-20 that’ll help me not feel nutritionally deficient while working.

My cashapp is $PhoenixSinger

Thank you
