Hey everyone, I’m just stopping in to quickly say: if you have questions please don’t send them to my main account! If you’re wondering about the discord server, please send a message to @intersex-support because the server is no longer moderated/hosted by this blog in specific.

I also won’t be posting here for the foreseeable future, I just don’t have the time or energy anymore, but I won’t be deleting the blog. I also say not to send messages to my main account (if you somehow stumble upon it), because I’m just not active there and don’t check my notifications.

I know intersex-support is a busy blog with a lot of asks that pile up, but that’s also the only other blog that I’ve kept up with and know the people who mod, and I feel it’s the only one I can safely recommend for resources. The intersex community has grown a on tumblr since I joined though, and I’m sure there’s incredible people running blogs that can help people!

I might make a longer post another time, but wanted to just say this for now. Hoping that everyone is taking care the best they can ❤️

hello again everyone. its me, chimera, the autistic nonbinary transfem native poor person who is always begging for monies. i went to shower today and discovered im completely out of soap, which um. obviously sucks. im also on my last razor, which technically isnt as urgent but. if i run out of those my dysphoria will go wild. um. ive also been entirely living off one meal of potatoes and ramen noodles a day for about a week now because thats all i have left to eat, and while i can keep living on that for awhile, it is making me quite depressed.

since my mom died i dont really have any consistent way to go get groceries myself either between my disability and inability to drive; sometimes my cousin is willing to grab stuff for me but more often i have to use delivery services which add fees and tips and stuff, so costs of living are. very bad. if you can, please consider helping me out. i can make custom emojis for discord in return, and while im not the best at anything larger i can draw some other stuff on request. um. my c4sh4pp is $genderiffic and i have a paypal if you need it, just DM for that. i get done with classes at my college may 1st, after which point i hope to find a job and maybe finally be able to stop begging. thank you all 🧡

i know this is a big ask but i genuinely have no other options and i know this is a way to keep myself moving forward. i am autistic and im in sensory hell. living full time in a city again but being homeless and having nowhere to decompress or be without stimulation is making me physically sick and very worried about hurting myself and others because of a reaction i cant control. long term obviously the goal is to have my own space to retreat to when sensory overload becomes an issue but for now i have to cope with the reality of the situation and be able to endure this transition without damaging myself or others any further. i have a job interview next week and many many many good things in the works as far as securing stable housing and school, but i obviously am struggling greatly due to lack of resources. i am making this post because i know that making accommodations for myself is going to keep me safe and enable me to endure the next couple of months of uncertainty and overstimulation. i did my research and found some noise cancelling options that are cheaper and more effective than the other earmuff options and i came up with this:

its $119.99 on the website and theres no pickup option available and stores dont have it so its gonna run me about another $10-20 for shipping depending on where i get it sent to. so my goal here is to come up with hopefully about $150 to cover the costs. this is a necessary item not a luxury purchase. if anyone has any questions about what ive been dealing with in detail feel free to message me and ask, but for now im just asking that you donate anything that you can and share this post if you cant. this problem is actively affecting the way that i think, feel and react to my environment and making it more difficult and dangerous for me to interact with others. if you have anything to give at all, please know that you have my unending gratitude even if i cant express that to each of you individually. the help of my community is one of the few things keeping me going right now, so thank you. anything helps <3

Image description: [ First slide is a logo that combines trans and intersex flags by putting trans colors inside the purple circle. Text says #Trans intersex solidarity. The rest of the slides have text that reads: Gender affirming care for trans teens is under threat - and the same bills force surgeries on intersex babies. 90 of the 120 gender affirming healthcare ban bills in states across the USA have carve outs to permit nonconsensual surgeries on intersex infants. That's 75%! This is why we need #TransIntersexSolidarity!

Eradicating our sex traits, our genders, our bodies, is eradicating us.States are segregating trans, nonbinary, and intersex people into false sex and gender binaries by simultaneously forcing trans+ youth to detransition AND authorizing non-consensual interventions on intersex infants and children. We can’t let them. The accelerating gender and sex apartheid must be stopped. #TransIntersexSolidarity

Legislators: So you want to save the children? Here's how. Protect youth by preserving their rights to bodily autonomy and self-determination. Protect youth by letting them be their authentic selves. Let trans, nonbinary & intersex youth make their own choices about their own bodies, when they are informed and ready. #TransIntersexSolidarity

Solidarity from intersex communities with trans+ youth in the United States and across the globe! [body] Some people are trans and/or nonbinary. Some people are intersex. Some people are both trans+ and intersex. We are all united in our shared birthrights to be both free from interventions we do not want and to have access to the gender affirming care we do want. #TransIntersexSolidarity]

Sharing these graphics from @intersexawareness on Instagram. Trans and intersex communities have always been tied together, and right now both of us are under attack. Solidarity is more important than ever!

Hey everyone :) I know I’m not very active but I was wondering if anyone here had resources on learning to write alt-text? I’d be really appreciative. Thank you!

really sucks how i have to write witty one liners in order to gain any kind of traction on my mutual aid posts... like is it not enough for me to want to survive? i have to make a spectacle out of it too?

[intersapphic]

I’m Dave and I have severe gastroparesis, meaning a paralyzed stomach.

I’m going back on medical leave until I can get my feeding tube placed in January. I’ll be on short term disability, so I won’t be paid my entire salary while on leave.

My deductible rolls over Jan 1st, so I’ll have to start paying co-pays for meds and appointments again.

If anyone can help me out with medical/travel costs in the meantime, that would be greatly appreciated!

Happy holidays everyone✨ eat something you love for me!

Hey so I had to pay the county back $230 because they gave me too much in food stamps or i was gonna get sent to collections…since I only worked 4 days last week (we were given the day off for Christmas) my paycheck wasn’t enough of a parachute. If someone could help me scrounge up like $100 so i can have at least a couple dollars after paying rent til I next get paid…hopefully this is the last time I have to ask for help 🥺

NOVEMBER 19

thank you everyone who continually engaged with my previous pinned post. I know it’s gotten impossibly long so this will be the first post of a new thread on my fundraising. To keep this post clean and legible I’m going to add any new screenshots to the original post linked here (https://tasia-reader.tumblr.com/post/701113603155181568/november-16-im-still-at-13-but-ive-been-trying) not this one, I’ll have only the most recent information in a second reblog instead of a long chain. I haven’t gotten a single donation in almost two weeks and my post just isn’t gaining traction. Hopefully this fixes that.

Where to begin: Many of my unpaid bills are nearing the point of rolling over which is just an impossible hurdle to get past. I’ll lose access to the ability to get payday loans all together if I can’t raise enough to cover them. I’ve been having to take loans out every single month exclusively for necessities but it’s never enough because paying it back each month leaves you deeper in debt, at this point I’m drowning. You can find all my screenshots of those bills on my previous post linked above: The goal is still currently $601 and I no longer have the $13 donated because I used it to buy canned soup after trying to raise money separately for food without success 😥

SECOND: it’s Winter here in Canada and already -4 at night. I only have old tshirts and shorts, and we’ll as sneakers with holes and no socks. I have two jackets but both a cheap with no inner liner and neither buttons or zips up or even has pockets. I have a list on Amazon linked below with clothes, food, supplements for my blood sugar, and multivitamins because I’m very deficient but I can’t afford them to make up what I’m missing.

Third of all: I’m trying desperately to find a loan office to get a large enough loan to consolidate all of this into one payment ($1500-$2000), but I’m being rejected because of defaulting on half a dozen payday loans one year ago, putting me in a repayment plan and ruining my credit and goodwill. If anyone knows any company that would grant a disabled Canadian on fixed government income(another MAJOR hurdle as loan corps. hate that) with crap credit get a loan please let me know. It’s extremely urgent.

Finally, there is a free way to help me (if you’re in Canada). I have a referral code for Neo Mastercard, a secured debit with credit card. As it’s secured you would have to make a $50 deposit to use it but there are also unsecured cards if you happen to have better credit than me. Either way the savings rate is 2.25%, they have immediate cash back from purchases and I would receive a potential $85 if you got one and I could scream with how much I need that. There's full info in the link below, please consider it.

all medical debt should be forgiven but also it just should not exist in the first place and it’s crazy to have so many people smugly fold their arms and say “actions have consequences, that’s life” like.. you mean someone’s health? that they can’t control and everyone should have a right to care for and seek out help for? that’s not frivolous. it’s not a fucking moral failing to get sick or have issues.. that’s literally out of everyone’s power. it shouldn’t permanently ruin someone’s life to have a medical emergency or just.. exist.
