just resurfacing for a moment to share with you this interesting eShakti dress shared by @holypujoles on Twitter. this looks like the dress fancy's mom made her wear in the all-clown version of "fancy" by Reba McIntire.
My good friend Noah released his binder drafting and sewing tutorial this week! He doesn’t have a Tumblr, so I said I would post it for him.
“This digital drafting tutorial guides you to create a custom chest binder based on your own measurements. The easy to follow tutorial includes instructions for how to create a crop top length binder with several style and finishing options. The two binder styles addressed in the tutorial are most similar in fit to Underworks and GC2B binders. An add-on for full length binders will become available in the future.”
It’s taken him over a year to design this tutorial, and it’s really thoughtfully written. The tutorial requires some knowledge of sewing stretch knits, but I think it’s doable if you have never drafted before. It’s on sale for the month of April for $10 usd, and then will go up to $15.
Check it out here, and please share!
i am very stressed and exhausted (as i have been since like, 2014) but universal standard jeans now go up to a women’s 40.
yes, they’re expensive, but they are really good quality, well-fitting, comfortable jeans that are actually made for fat bodies. they also do denim drives a few times a year where you send them two pairs of ill-fitting jeans and you get a pair of jeans for FREE (well for $10 shipping). that’s how i happen to own two pairs of $90 jeans. haha.
the brand has had their problems, like introducing size 0 before size 32, and using smaller models to represent larger sizes as a marketing ploy (like using katanafatale as their size 30 model when she wears several sizes smaller), but it looks like they actually made good on their promise to introduce larger sizes.

@insurrectionarycompassion and I are about $100 short of rent due today if anyone wants to make sure we can eat + be sheltered + have heat this week. My offer to work for money stands as well.

yo guys if you live in the US and use regular absorbency U by kotex sleek tampons please throw them away. they’re currently under recall in america because they’re coming apart in people and leaving pieces which puts you at a huge risk for toxic shock syndrome.
im gonna go ahead and plug the diva cup right now which i live and breathe by. i’ve never had any issues with it and i’m totally open to talking about it!
please be safe y’all!
sharing this because a lot of fat people and people with disabilities use the U by kotex because the longer applicators/applicator shapes are good for fat bodies and people with particular disabilities. it’s just the regular absorbency, not the others.
diva cups are completely useless to my disabled ass so i’m holding out until the keela cup is available.
do you have recommendations brands to look at for a winter jacket that’s not dorky for a masculine person? it feels like every place we look for cool winter jackets they barely have over xxl.
have you tried asos? their mens’ plus stuff has been really cool lately ! other than that i don’t know because i don’t wear coats or have money, but i’ll publish this and see what people say !
hey- today you can get a $90 pair of universal standard jeans for $15 (shipping), if you mail them two pairs of your old ill-fitting jeans. I’ve done this before and got a really nice free pairs of jeans out of it. enter ‘denimdrive’ as your code at checkout.
the deal is only good today, 11/26/18- just adding that cause tumblr is a dateless hellscape !
This is my cat Percy. He has a tumor between his eyes, which is pressing on his eye and making him sneeze blood. It’s going to cost $1000 to put a scope up his nose and get an x-ray to find out what kind it is, and see if it can be treated. Then there will be the cost of treating whatever it is, if it can be treated.
Percy is around 13 or so - we don’t know for sure because he was an outside cat for several years before my dad found him - but I don’t think he was ever feral. He is one of the sweetest cats I’ve ever met. All he wants is hugs, headbutts, and tummy rubs. From anyone he meets. He loves his kitty brother and tolerates his little kitty sister and little ferret sister.
I am deep in debt and can’t even afford to put this cost on a credit card right now. I’m hoping to raise at least enough so that I can put the rest on a card. It’s not ideal, but I can’t leave him like this.
If you can help, even just a little, my PayPal link is paypal.me/PercyPants. I’d appreciate anything I can get. Shares are also appreciated!
I’ve gotten some help, but I’m not nearly there yet and Percy needs these tests ASAP. Please help or share if you can.
I’ve been lucky enough to raise the money needed for the diagnostics, which he will get in a couple days. Let’s see what the treatment will cost!
this shirt is for sale at LANE BRYANT. lane bryant. a place where no one under 55 or under upper-middle-class buys anything but some cacique underwear.
this terrified white woman’s face says it all. the protective hand moving up to her throat, eyes trained on the gun in lane bryant’s hand.
hi tumblr! it’s my birthday month and i currently have $7 to my name, so my gift to myself is the vulnerability to ask for help.
i’m a broke trans woman whose already low wages are being heavily garnished by the government for student loans, which has made it legitimately impossible for me to pay rent without assistance for months. this month i have no idea how i’m gonna do it, let alone feed myself and get myself to work.
when my grandmother died in late august, i couldn’t afford to go home for the service. i don’t have toothpaste. i’m relying on the hospitality and generosity of my best friends for everything right now, and i’m embarrassed.
if you can help it would mean a lot to me, and if you can’t or you’re tired of helping sad broke trans women, it’s cool. sorry, i love you.
