Trans | Autistic | PDA | ADHD

I currently have 2 purposes
1) sharing things I think are useful to the LGBTQ+ community as my 🖕 to the US administration.
2) blog type posts about my life
Inattentive ADHD
+ poor autistic sensory response
+ fire ash
= Melted garden bin and small fire.

Garden fire Wednesday pm
Put hands into the ash Thurs am and determined it wasn't hot. Threw into bin.

1 hour later fence is catching fire

Mortified by my stupidity.

The White House is ordering a pause to all grants and loans. Programs affected are “including, but not limited to, financial assistance for foreign aid, nongovernmental organizations, DEI, woke gender ideology, and the green new deal.”

Dear Friends who are immigrants. If you entered US legally, be sure to carry your documents with you. If undocumented, according to the law, you do not have to answer any questions or sign anything without lawyer advice. Im so very sorry

British autistic on benefits currently dreading the next benefit announcement from Starmer and his cronies. Rumours keep going round claiming one benefit will into vouchers... Can't pay my rent, bills, feed myself or my pets with vouchers.
Right now the #autistic community is scared as hell.

We barely get accommodation, supports, or funding for services that benefit us, and everything is about to get even more scarce.

Supporting autistics means listening to autistics, and supporting them in self determination of their needs.

On today's walk we managed to snap a photo, before getting overwhelmed by sounds and rushing home. From one direction the hunt with horns and barking dogs, from the other the gunfire from a shoot. And around us, the wind

Being overwhelmed by sounds is probably the worst part of my #autism #spd

State officials say the gender designations of California-issued Real IDs are unaffected by President Donald Trump’s executive order that the federal government only recognize a person’s assigned sex at birth.

For those of you who still have Audible (UK) there are a number of LGBT+ history and culture books currently available on the Plus Catalogue (aka free). I'm making the most of listening to these before my membership ends next month - cos Bezos can get lost as well!

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

After today, I am more scared than I have ever been in my life. PLEASE share this around to as many people as you can and support me if you are able.

If I don’t get this done soon, I am VERY AFRAID that I may lose my chance to do it at all. #trans #supporttransartists #transartist #help #gofundme
The election is over and as a Trans-Masc person who is pre-op, I am terrified.

It is a VERY real danger to me and every other trans person that our right to gender-affirming surgery will be GONE soon.

PLEASE help, share, donate. More info below. 🖤🤍

If anyone can tell me what I need to do to get my posts to share to / show up on the #transgender, #lgbtqia and #autism feeds I'd be most grateful. I feel I must be doing something wrong here!

I'm one of those people you're supposed to be afraid of.
#transgender , #autistic & #queer

Pre-T, pre-op I have looked this way for my whole adult life. Even before I knew I was Trans & Autistic I got abused.

I'm no threat to you, but bigotry is a threat to me.
