For those of you not aware Mercury Stardust, Point of Pride, and friends are raising funds for Trans Healthcare.
Unfortunately, some TikTok peeps are being complete transphobic bastards and are reporting the lives and getting the accounts banned. The appeals are being rejected.
This hinders getting the word out on this fundraiser.
Make sure you donate if you can or at least share the link in your circles so people are aware and hopefully the message can reach a wider audience
mercury stardust and jory are currently doing a tiktok livestream for 30 hours to raise $1,000,000 for trans healthcare if you can go watch and/or donate!
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRcJSSwg/
They’re currently at $765,000 and if they hit $1,000,000 by 10pm CT (1.5 hours from now) they will raise the goal to $2,000,000. Anything above the $1,000,000 will go specifically towards gender affirming surgeries.
LINK TO DONATE RIGHT HERE
They help so many in the trans community, 36% of the people they help are disabled!!
I sent in $25 earlier this month and $25 today.
Even if you can’t donate, go watch the lives and give it views and interaction!
just in the time it took me to type this up they have raised like $15,000
This is a huge form of mutual aid
this is HUGE for trans liberation and for trans joy!
Iunno if y'all know of Jory (AKA AlluringSkull) and Mercury Stardust (AKA Trans Handy Ma'am) on TikTok, but they raised over $2 million for gender affirming care for thousands of trans people last year, and this year they're going for $4 million. They went live yesterday and got live banned NINE TIMES within 10 hours on multiple different accounts yesterday because of hateful, bigoted trolls. But is that stopping them? NOPE! They have live access back and are going live again today and tomorrow to keep fighting and raising money! They might also be streaming on Twitch, YouTube, and Instagram as well, so PLEASE follow them on all accounts, donate if you can, and join the lives! Even if you can't donate, it helps SO MUCH just to have y'all join the lives, send likes, share, and/or comment in chat. You can also donate directly to Point of Pride by clicking this link (CLICK ME) to get them to that $4 million!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help them reach this goal! DO NOT LET THESE TRANSPHOBIC BASTARDS GRIND US AND OUR COMMUNITY DOWN!!! 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵 🏳️⚧️ 💛🤍💜🖤
Don’t panic—Mercury Stardust, AKA The Trans Handy Ma’am is here to help!
For too many people, the simple act of contacting a plumber or repair person can feel like a game of chance. As a transwoman and a professional maintenance technician, Mercury Stardust has discovered (the hard way) that we live in a world with much to fear. If you've ever felt panicked about opening your home to strangers in order to fix a maintenance issue, this book is for you.
Renting a home can be a complex process—from finding a safe and affordable space, to hiring help for moving in and out, and of course, managing any repairs that come up during your stay.
You deserve to feel empowered to take matters into your own hands—and it’s not as hard as you might think. In this book, Mercury will show you how to tackle the projects that need improvement in your home—from how to properly fix a clog in your bathroom sink and safely hang things on your walls to patching small and medium drywall holes.
Safe and Sound includes:
Guidance for over 50 simple home maintenance projects, such as replacing your showerhead and troubleshooting a faulty garbage disposal.
Chapters covering basic and handy repairs for your plumbing, electrical, carpentry, and safety needs.
Advice tailored to renters to minimize permanent changes.
Helpful illustrations and QR code links to videos to help you on your journey.
Remember—a little bit of knowledge can go a long way toward making you feel more safe and in control of your own life.
You can donate directly to Point of Pride or go to the link in their bio. You can text transjoy (one word) to 44321. Or you can attend their live in TikTok (make sure you share and double tap!!!) or on YouTube (make sure you like and share!!!) 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵 And spread the word on every platform you can!! Do what you can with what you've got!!!
Have you met Mercury Stardust, the trans handy ma'am?
Her tiktok account is full of home maintenance tutorials, and positive messages. And she just wrote a book, which made the New York Times bestseller list.
It's getting rave reviews and I just ordered one for myself and another for a Christmas gift for my niece. It's designed for beginners and seems chock full of good stuff. It's even got tips on renter friendly home repairs. At $25, it could make a great gift.
Buy here or here or give Jeff bezos some more money here 😂

I want to boost a fundraiser going on right now that’s attempting to raise money for gender affirming care. I’m sure a lot of ppl know Mercury Stardust aka the Trans Handy Ma’am, who has done incredible work for trans and gnc folks all over the country. Last year she did a 52 city book tour and had the bravery to go to ultra conservative states to spread her message and share her book, “Safe and Sound” (which teaches people how to fix things around their house!!).
She and other trans/queer folks are attempting to raise 4 million dollars for gender affirming care in only a few days. She recently posted and stated that they have been banned from tik tok live because people (fucking transphobes) kept reporting the page for fraud.
Please donate if you can. It would be a huge victory if they managed to get to 4 million despite these challenges and would show that there are PLENTY of people who care about and want to protect trans folks at at a time where this country is doing its best to erase them.
If you donate, send me a screenshot of the amount. Anything over 5 dollars and I will write you a short drabble of your choice (if you want something in return.)
Mercury, Jory, the Point of Pride founders, and everyone else who was fundraising on live over TDOV weekend unfortunately didn't make the $4 million goal.
HOWEVER!!!
The fundraiser is still open. Mercury announced today that she'll still be fundraising on lives and such until she gets to that $4 million. So PLEASE, donate if you can! Ask your friends, family, coworkers, fellow students, and more to PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE donate as well. PLEASE share the fundraising link; tune in to Mercury's lives on her main TikTok, alt TikTok, Instagram and/or YouTube; support those lives by liking, sharing, and commenting; and spread the word about the lives and fundraisers to anyone who will listen.
We can hit that $4 million, y'all! We can do it!! We just need to work together as much as we can and offer our support and time. Please, let's help trans people get the care they need!!
Donate via this link (click me!) OR you can text TRANSJOY to 44321!!
