It began on a random night in 2014. When I learned that you could be transgender, that the dreams and visions I had had were not only feasible but a reality many folks lived. My hrt journey started in 2016 but my trials and tribulations to learn, understand, and mold womanhood into what truly incorporates my identity began in 2021.

It was no longer about what medications could do for me, but the evolution and growth I could achieve by my own hands. I found womanhood as a black woman, fighting against social norms and perceptions that already percieved me as highly masculine and hyper-sexualized. Having to writhe, rumble, and generally fight to be seen and heard is never a reality I would've imagined. However, 7 years later, I am the most beautiful and charismatic black woman I had ever dreamed I would be. I'm wise as my aunt is, navigating social situations with the grace and finesse she bears, I am as confident as a wild storm, bending to the will of no one and carving the path that I am destined.

When I was in my adolescence, I dreamed of becoming a charismatic, influential, and beautiful black woman. I am now 24 feeling as if I finally made it. I'm the person I only ever hoped I would blossom into; the person that I envisioned when I read on tumblr that "things get better". If you are reading this, pre social or medical transition or shivering in fear of what being a transgender woman would mean for you, your safety, and your future, I want you to know that I made it. I survived passed the life expectancy of a black transgender woman and I am fucking thriving despite the adversities and walls set against me. Love yourself, embrace your truth, and let no one dictate who or what you will blossom into.

An attempt was made on my life.

Today I survived an attempted stabbing, I am highly traumatized and not coping well. I had to lean on family to get a ticket out of here for my partner and I but I still need $200 for taxi/ubers to get out of here on the 6th

Im leaving a lot of shit behind but since Im still in active danger I have to do it. Im scared Im going to die here or worse. So if youre able to share and/or donate it would be appreciated.

I'm tired of being terrorized

Hey everyone, if you follow my partner @800-dick-pics you would know that we are currently being harassed extorted and stalked by my family on a resolved issue even after we've escaped their anti black and ableist abuse

Their harrassment is very clearly racially motivated almost exclusively singling out my black disabled neurodivergent partner, as evidenced in the screenshot they provided on their post (there's more than this one, but its all too hard to read)

At this point, I want nothing more than for my gf and I to be left alone entirely by my family with no way of contacting us, this is a dire emergency! They will not leave us alone as long as they have a means to terrorize us

At the present we need *at least $500* to afford food, toiletries and new phones with new numbers to be able to cut them off once and for all

We will continue to be harassed if this goal is not met, we will not be able to know peace if we can't cut them off completely so we NEED this ASAP for our collective health

Anything and everything helps

We're hungry and scared and just want to be left alone so we can heal and we can't do that without the support of the community

Please consider helping a recently employed/housed TWOC make it through the month.

[1 October 2023]

Hello,I am Nell,a Malaysian trans woman who recently got hired for a new job that required me to relocate on short notice.

That's a good thing for the most part,but I needed to scrape together money and go into debt to start renting a place from which I could travel to my new workplace. And as expected,my first full paycheck is still a month off.

As such,I could really use the help absorbing the cost I've already paid and covering things like food,travel costs,utilities (which run off a prepaid meter),and possibly the second month's rent.

It would help if I could accumulate RM1000 or around 220 USD gradually throughout the month,which should help me stay on top of things.

Any assistance you can spare can be contributed to my Pay*al at [email protected],and even if you can't at the moment,spreading this post around is a great help too.

I wish i knew more trans women like me. Well, I want to know more trans women in general, but I wish i knew more poc trans women like me. I'm Puerto Rican, but grew up stateside to an incredibly americanized family. I don't fit in with other boricuas well. I don't even speak Spanish even though I grew up with it. White people tend to assume I'm white too, and even though other latinos recognize me as latina it's still hard to fit in. The most boricua thing about me is my hair and the way I say the word "pastelillo", it seems. By being transgender as well, it means I've never met anyone I truly fit in with or seems to be like me. It almost seems like every transfem ever is white, and it's hard to talk to them about poc things. I can't even enjoy picrews bc so many cater exclusively to white people by not including darker skin tones or curly hair. Most of the time, they don't look like me. They look like me IF I was white. Yet I'm not sure if I'll belong with other latinos either considering how yanqui i am. I've been called a gringa before by internet latinoamericanos, and who knows what else they would've called me if they knew I was trans.

Since we’re talking about show ideas, we need a show about a vampire romance with a trans woman as the lead! And trans witches!

That would be amazing actually!!! I hope someone runs with this!!!

On the topic of trans witches we kinda got this on the charmed reboot. They had a cousin who was struggling to get her magic and I can't remember the whole storyline but she did get magic and she was trans!!! I keep meaning to finish the 4th season but honestly Macy's death was so heartbreaking.

But yes more trans witches!!!

Please consider helping me make sure I have a working phone.

[25 January 2024]

Hello, I am Nell, a Malaysian trans woman who moved away from family late last year to pursue an offer of employment.

With me getting the job, I've been more stable financially the last few months but the amount I can save per month from my wages still isn't a lot more than a drop in the bucket.

At the same time, I've owned a Samsung J6+ for several years now, and it's not been working great for a while now, including warranting a few repairs. Buttons not responding, battery not charging well, apps running slowly.

So I figure it's time for a new phone to ensure that I can continue to be available for contact from my employers and in touch with my family without worrying about my phone dying on me.

I've been eyeing something like the Honor 90 that should last me for a good few years, and I've found it for sale at a price of RM1500, or around 320 USD.

As such, I'm asking for help absorbing the costs as much as possible so I can get it by March, if at all possible.

It's not a terribly urgent need, but definitely something I want to address before the unexpected happens. I'll probably purchase the replacement phone in March even if I don't reach the full goal here, but even lightening the cost somewhat would really help me a lot.

As such, any contributions you can spare can be directed to my P*yp*l at [email protected], and even if not, simply spreading this post around will help as well.

I was just messing around taking selfies when it hit me that it's been 10 years since I started transitioning. I never actually thought I'd make it this far. I'm so grateful to myself for sticking through it!

(via How Do We Cope When Two Black Trans And GNC Young Adults Are Shot to Death in Ohio?)

Rest in power Amiri Jean and Kejuan Richardson

"But Amiri and KeJuan were in a car, not a school. They were both shot multiple times by another driver. There’s nothing romantic or comforting that they died together. They were shot, wrecked their car, probably dazed and scared and maybe knowing they were going to die. One hopes people find small comforts in these moments to ease their fear. But that’s more likely to comfort us.

They died at age 21 while driving around their hometown. Without a doubt, they should have been safe. They should not have been statistically more at risk doing that than any other young people."  #RIP #Transgender #Ohio
