I’m in Texas. I’m trying to leave

I’m also a trans veteran deeply worried about losing benefits. It’s such a horrid situation

I am terrified at them defunding the VA. I’ve had a much easier time getting good medical care from VA doctors than I ever did going private and I’d be bankrupt without the VA. It’s because of the VA that I have any savings at all

Is there anything I can read about how we’re moving away from everything being a class?

They were protesting before the election. You just weren’t paying attention

She runs an amazing blog with a focus on gender dysphoria its links with dissociation https://genderanalysis.net/amp/

I mean if they gut the regulatory agencies the companies will probably just remove the ingredient list altogether

They don’t care about total enforcement. They’ll just use it against their enemies and people they want to take down while protecting their own. Rules for thee etc

This is the first time trans people have been one of the pillars of a winning candidates platform. They spent $215 million on anti trans ads specifically, or 40% of their entire marketing budget. You don’t invest that amount of resources into dehumanizing a minority without having dire intentions. Trans people have been discriminated against before, but not like this.

I’m so fucking terrified. Currently trapped in a deep red state. The kind that has been building a registry of trans people. I don’t think I’m on it yet. Wondering when I’m going to have to leave everything behind and flee to a sanctuary state. I’m currently making plans but I have an entire year left on my lease

They don’t need the military. The police have already been militarized and have zero issue using violence against the populace as has been demonstrated time and time again.

Also respectfully, as a vet, the military is not homogenous and Trump will absolutely find the people in the military that will listen to him and put them in charge

Most tablets can be used sublingually as long as they don’t have a hard shell on the outside. You can dissolve them under your tongue, under your lip, or in your cheek. Personally I like to keep them behind my bottom lip.

I desperately need to get out of this state

I was able to do it. Since sublingual has a fast half life you’ll need to spread the doses throughout the day as many times as you can. For me the bare minimum was 1mg every six hours for a total of 4mg each day though my body is pretty sensitive to estradiol overall. (The last pill I’d take directly before bed so I’d be sleeping more than 6 hours)

I do think it helps to start off slow and ramp things up over time so that your body adapts but that is anecdotal on my end and mostly theory on the research side. Also if you’re able to get injections or tolerate an androgen suppressor it’s much easier than doing sublingual 4 times a day

We can’t ignore it when they’re constantly passing more and more draconian laws that make our lives infinitely harder all across the United States.

Haha thank you it’s been a real struggle

We have innocent men being lawfully executed by the state in the current year. How many people in total were involved in those processes without a single one standing up for justice? Our current “liberal” presidential administration hasn’t uttered a single word in opposition to their murders

You don’t think Trump will find people to do the job for him? Do you remember them black bagging and abducting people off the street in Portland during BLM? While the NG’s performance was commendable during that turbulent time, I wouldn’t rely on that fact staying true. Also I’m a vet and at least when I was in when we were given orders we weren’t told why we were doing them or given any context for them so in the heat of the moment that’s all you’re going to have to go off of.
