Dear self,
Instead of remembering "I need to do such and such...." in the middle of doing something else you've just remembered that you needed to do, perhaps it might be easier to actually complete the job you're doing on the moment and then move onto the next and complete it too before starting anymore...
Might actually find things get done then!
#The story of how I've been attempting to find a water resistant shower curtain on amazon for at least 10 hours without committing#And completing online Christmas food shop#And updating my planner with what has happened over the last week before I forget days/dates/info given over important stuff#And make a list of stuff I need to purchase from a non online store before christmas#And work out the “naaaaice” Christmas food I need to grab from m&s#And catch up on the podcast I'm listening to#And take the 4th dose of medication I have to spread out over the day but now have been organised and moved the box that I can't find it#And get other last minute jobs done....#Instead everything is a tiny fraction more done every so often rather than anything getting completed 🤦

Am I the asshole for ditching my best friend because of her political views?
🧠🧠🧠 so I can find it later.
My best friend of nearly 10 years has, imo, gone completely off the deep end politically. She went from an educated CNA with 4 years at the same job to being unable to hold down a job and being blacklisted from EVERY hospital and medical center in the city for forcing her patients to pray with her and spouting political and pseudoscience. This last year, she had 7 jobs, which is unreal for her.
In 2016, she fell down the Qanon rabbit hole. Over the last 6 ish years, she has started abusing trans people online, she harassed people at Pride this year, and actually believes all of the qanon stuff.
I just can't handle it. She's become hateful, paranoid. She doesn't even shop at grocery stores anymore because they are "run by liberal scum." She only shops Amazon and fast food. She bought a gun, and she answers the door with it. Even if she knows a friend is coming over, she's afraid of black people now. She's afraid of poor people, too. I just don't get it. She watches the news all day, every day. Like it's an addiction to see global suffering 24/7.
I'm not kidding. I think there's something going wrong upstairs. I tried to reach out, gently, around August about a possible mental health issue, since she's struggled with a few issues in the past. She just started in on how NASA pushed the moon further from Earth and that gave us all depression. I tried for months to help her. But nothing has worked and now she is talking about how all liberals should die and is getting those horrible "hang biden" stickers on her car, and I just blocked her. I blocked her number, blocked her on all social media, and blocked her email address. I ghosted her.
She was my best friend, and I think I might be TA because I didn't stick it out and try more to bring her back. But I also think she's past that point, if she comes around it has to be on her own. In the mean time, I want nothing to do with her. But I miss her. We had such an amazing friendship that's gone downhill so fast. I think I hurt her, but I'm worried for my own mental health. See how I'm on the fence? Ugh.
Aita?
What are these acronyms?

hey sorry to appear so randomly like this but was just reminded about canes/you have experience with them? I was wondering if it would it be ok to ask about advice for getting one? If not it's completely understandable and I wish for the best for you and yours, thank you for your time.
Ignore below if no. idk how else to format these
If you are ok with it here's just some basic context, I've recently been really looking to find or make a mobility aid that I could strap to my arm and is collapsible, but am pretty lost with how to find the parts or organizations so on. I don't have a lot of connections or support close to home, neither much if any medical insurance. I do have a safe environment to live in and transportation which is nice. I can't think of too much else for this that's important? again thank you so much for your time and being here in general.
sure, im happy to help. if you think cane would help you walk more comfortably and reduce pain, you should definitely get one! they're not that expensive, the ones I use were $30 AUD, about $20 US. You can find them at pretty much any pharmacy, you just gotta shop around for one you like. Take note of materials (my first cane had a weird soft silicone handle that would friction burn my fingers), how sturdy it is (you dont want the collapsing sections to rattle a ton), how comfortable the grip is, find one good for your hand. some of them also have a wrist strap attached in case you're worried about dropping it. you also need to make sure it can adjust to the right height, the handle by your wrist if your arms were fully by your side
you should also make sure the grip is ergonomic. a poorly shaped grip can make things worse. for example, c shaped canes can cause problems in your hand. this is mine, im pretty happy with it.
you could try shopping online for one if getting to a pharmacy is difficult for you, but then you're rolling the dice on some of the things you'd normally check in person. i bought a purple cane off amazon cos i love purple but it rattled too much to be trustworthy, so i stuck with my black one
i hope this helps, and feel free to ask more if you need.

Where to Purchase Isopropyl Alcohol: A Comprehensive Buying Guide
Isopropyl Alcohol is a versatile product widely used for cleaning, disinfecting, and medical purposes. Whether you're disinfecting surfaces, cleaning electronics, or using it in a first-aid kit, knowing where to purchase it can make a big difference. This guide will help you understand the best places to buy isopropyl alcohol and other related products like Sterile Water for Injection or Bacteriostatic Water.
understand the best places to buy isopropyl alcohol and Bacteriostatic water
1. Pharmacies and Drugstores
Pharmacies are one of the most common places to purchase isopropyl alcohol. Stores like Chemist Warehouse and Priceline in Australia often stock isopropyl alcohol in different concentrations, including 70% and 99%. You can also find medical-grade products, such as Sterile Water for Injection or Bacteriostatic Water. These products are often used for medical purposes, such as preparing injectable medications, but are also available for general use.
Tip: When visiting your local pharmacy, look for different bottle sizes. For small tasks, a 100ml or 250ml bottle of isopropyl alcohol will do. For larger jobs, pharmacies often stock 500ml or 1-litre bottles.
2. Supermarkets
Major supermarkets like Coles and Woolworths often stock isopropyl alcohol in the cleaning section. While the selection may be smaller than in pharmacies, it is still convenient to pick up a bottle during your grocery shopping trip. These stores may also carry Sterile Water for Injection 10ml for household use or minor medical needs.
3. Online Retailers
Online shopping offers convenience and variety, making it easy to find exactly what you need. Websites like Amazon, eBay, and Catch have a wide range of isopropyl alcohol products available. If you’re looking to buy in bulk or want specific concentrations (like 99% for electronics cleaning), online retailers are a great option.
In addition to isopropyl alcohol, you can also find products like Bacteriostatic Water or Bac Water online. These are often used for multi-dose medication reconstitution and can be purchased from specialized medical suppliers.
4. Medical Supply Stores
For larger quantities of isopropyl alcohol or medical-grade solutions, medical supply stores are the best option. These stores often stock more specialized products like Sterile Water for Injection 10ml or Bacteriostatic Water for injection. These solutions are commonly used for reconstituting injectable medications and other medical purposes.
Tip: If you need to reconstitute medications, such as peptides, consider visiting a medical supply store. They also carry related products, including syringes and Buy Distilled Water Adelaide for non-injectable purposes.
5. Hardware and Electronics Stores
For those using isopropyl alcohol to clean electronics or remove adhesives, hardware stores like Bunnings often stock high-purity alcohol (90% or above). Electronics retailers also carry isopropyl alcohol for cleaning sensitive devices and components.
Conclusion
Whether you’re buying isopropyl alcohol for medical use, household cleaning, or electronics maintenance, there are plenty of options available both in-store and online. Pharmacies, supermarkets, online retailers, and medical supply stores all offer isopropyl alcohol in different forms and concentrations, along with related products like Bacteriostatic Water, Sterile Water for Injection, and Bac Water. If you’re looking for high-quality bacteriostatic products, consider Bacteriostatic Water Australia for your needs. Always check the label for the concentration that suits your purposes, and shop around to find the best prices and suppliers.

Okay so the hardware store also takes paypal but the shipping goes by individual item for cost and delivery time, so shipping would be 75$ to buy a handful of items
And dollarama has online shopping but only if you want to buy things by the case full and I am not sure it is meant for individuals
The issue I have with grocery shopping online has historically been the potential for the shopper to not pick out the right product or to try to substitute with a brand I can't use, so I don't know if that's ever going to be an option for me
It looks like maybe walmart is the only store I use that will actually make my life easier and safer but they still have each item ship individually, even if the shipping was free. I also don't know if the shipping will continue to be free or if they will start to charge after a month or something.
At least i got the stupid air conditioner delivered :/
Amazon would have a great business model if they accepted unbacked paypal payments and let you lump your deliveries together for a specified time window. And ig if they didn't otherwise suck.
If local stores could just accept your money without a line of credit and could deliver things in a way that makes any sense that would be great...
I swear, if my doctors would just do virtual appointments and I could work with stores to deliver things and take my money, the risk of re-exposure to corona would become limited to medical tests and administered treatments... And then I would happily only leave my house for fresh air and I wouldn't have to worry about needing to run ill times errands that could set my health back for weeks or months at a time.

Wow, a couple of my posts have got popular recently. Hello, new people! I'm an autistic trans man with ADHD, a diverse array of other health issues and disabilities, and no money! 😘 This is a sideblog so you won't get any follows or comments from this url, but I appreciate you for being here. I figure I'd better make a pinned post since a lot of the same things come up frequently in replies and I might save some folks some time:
I'm not in the US. I am from there but I've lived in central Europe for over 15 years now. A lot of stuff is different here. I know a lot of folks reading this blog are in the US or UK and a lot of folks try to make suggestions for some of the troubles I have but 99% of the time it's something that's ubiquitous in the US or UK but straight-up not available here whatsoever. I appreciate the intent, but if you see a really simple, easy solution to a problem I post on here, odds are I've thought of it, I've investigated it, I've tried it, and it's either not available or it doesn't work for me for one reason or another.
Things that aren't available here include air conditioners, box fans, square hepa filters, most dating apps (in fact most apps in general), a lot of streaming services, many types/brands of medication and types of medical equipment that are super common in other countries, Amazon (seriously), Etsy, and a lot of other online shopping sites, a truly incredible number of food and drink items (especially processed or pre-made ones), and most social groups/clubs/events (at least ones accessible to an English speaker). (And much, much more!)
I have a lot of medical issues which I sometimes write about here. I don't necessarily explain everything in every post because that would mean writing a novel every time, but since people keep asking, yes, I know what EDS is, yes, I know what MCAS is, yes, I am investigating these possibilities along with many others with my doctors, but it is an obscenely slow process. This country has a serious lack of specialists in a lot of conditions that are lesser-known or which have only been properly understood in recent years. Overall the medical system here is quite good and I can go to almost any doctor and get almost any of the medications available in this country without paying anything, but that comes at the cost of a language barrier and a lot of outdated diagnostic standards for particular conditions like autism, ADHD, and the aforementioned EDS and MCAS. In short, I'm working on it, but my options are limited and the process is slow.
The disability system is also different here. I know the system in the US is horrific and my heart goes out to everyone struggling to survive in it. Fortunately it is better here. It's a very long, slow process to get approved (mainly because you have to get a pretty significant paper trail first, and the lack of specialists means it can take months to get appointments), but approval is based mostly on the recommendations of doctors, the amount you get is calculated based on your income and how much working capacity you have lost, and it does not carry restrictions on how much money you are allowed to earn or have at any time. I am currently in the process of trying to get some benefits but it is likely to take another year if not longer.
If other stuff starts coming up frequently in comments and replies, I'll add answers here. For now, thanks for reading what I have to share and for the kind words (and kind attempts to help) that many of you have left me. I hope that what I write is helpful to some of you. It's hard to find time and energy to write a lot at the moment, but I will try to post more, since it's clear that a lot of people relate and are looking for more of what I have to share.
Take care of yourselves.

1. Principles of design
-Unity and Variety
Unity and variety are designed with a balance of unity and variety, creating harmony and interest. It's about making sure that all the elements work together seamlessly while also introducing contrast for visual appeal.
-Balance
Creating balance in design is all about strategically distributing visual weight to achieve stability and harmony. This can be accomplished through symmetrical designs with mirrored elements asymmetrical arrangements with different components or balanced through contrast.
-Emphasis and subordination
Emphasis and subordination in design involve gently bringing attention to key elements while allowing others to play a supportive role. By using size, color, or contrast, important elements are highlighted.
-Directional forces
Directional forces in design guide the viewer's eye through a composition using elements like lines, shapes, colors, and textures. By using these elements, designers control the viewer's visual journey.
-Repetition and rhythm
Repetition and rhythm in design bring an exciting sense of continuity and movement by repeating visual elements. Whether it's shapes, colors, patterns, or textures, this dynamic repetition establishes a captivating rhythm that energizes compositions, creating cohesion and drawing the viewer in with visual interest.
-Scale and proportion
Scale and proportion in design relate to the size and relationships of elements within a composition. Scale involves manipulating size for emphasis or hierarchy, while proportion ensures elements are appropriately sized relative to each other and the overall composition, creating visual harmony and balance.
2. Charles Demuth's "I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold" uses implied lines and linear perspective to guide the viewer's eye through the composition. The vanishing point creates a sense of depth and movement. Neutral colors balance the bold gold and red highlights, drawing attention to the central "5". Geometric shapes, like triangles and rectangles, create focal points and structure, leading the viewer's gaze.
Chapter 4.1 (wasn't able to find page)
3. I used to wear really bold colors and never understood why they didn’t look good on me. The hot pink and greens had such high intensity and saturation that they overshadowed me. But then I found a cute brown dress with neutral colors and realized what hues were meant for me. The neutral and warm color scheme will forever be my go-to. Neutral colors have low saturation and intensity, creating a subtle and understated palette. These colors, in various shades of grey, beige, and white, lack the vividness and brightness of highly saturated hues. The muted tones of neutral colors provide a calm, balanced background, allowing other design elements to stand out without overwhelming the composition. This restrained use of color creates an elegant and timeless aesthetic.
4.
5. An interactive design focuses on creating interfaces that are both functional and engaging, enhancing the overall user experience.
TOP FIVE BEST INTERACTIVE DESIGNS.
*Instagram
*Apple music
*Youtube
*Duo-lingo
*Amazon
My favorite interactive design is Amazon, mainly because it allows me to do a variety of things. I can order any items I want and have them delivered on the same day. I can also watch shows that I would normally have to wait for on regular TV or go to the movies to watch. Overall, an interactive design, such as an app or site, allows me to accomplish many tasks in one place and is easy to use and navigate. Amazon offers audio books, movies, series, online shopping for a wide range of items, music, grocery shopping with home delivery, medical care, same-day delivery, pharmacy services, and more. Amazon is the idea example of an interactive design in my opinion.

This blog covers very graphic and disturbing subjects. Reader discretion is advised.
[UPDATED: 2024-02-15]
Jesus David Torres, known online as “Dahvie Vanity” (occasionally “Dahvie Insanity”), was the lead singer of ‘Blood on the Dance Floor’ and various other previous musical projects, including “Master of Death” and “Sinners Are Winners”. Torres has been accused of various offenses including domestic abuse, physical assault, denial of medical care, embezzlement, and slander by his former co-workers, collaborating acts, and employees throughout his career; including Jayy Von Monroe, Garrett Ecstasy, Kerry Louise, and Ash Costello of New Years Day.
Torres is a known serial sex offender with numerous rape allegations against him. He was arrested twice for raping underage girls, a 14 year old in Florida in 2007 and a 15 year old in Colorado in 2009, but was released both times as his victims chose to not pursue charges against him. Some of his victims were as young as 10 years old.

Cheaper equivalents for the blockbuster brands, which both kill and repel pests, have quietly eluded consumers for years. Even today, they’re nowhere to be found at many of the biggest pet specialty stores, like PetSmart or Petco. And they’re absent from popular online pet pharmacies like Chewy.com or PetMed Express.
Their elusiveness is not by accident, according to a federal lawsuit by one of the generic’s makers, but a scheme by the brand-name products’ company to block competition. Filed in the U.S. District Court in Northern California, the lawsuit by Tevra Brands offers a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse of the multibillion-dollar pet medication market, where a few major companies have a stranglehold on pricing. Tevra’s suit claims it lost tens of millions of dollars because Bayer Animal Health, a former subsidiary of the German pharmaceutical giant, conspired to maintain its monopoly over the treatment it created.
Tevra sells its generic topical treatments for cats and dogs on its website, on Amazon and elsewhere, but the company argues that Bayer prevented it from reaching pet owners where they’re most likely to shop and depriving them of a better deal. Its line includes TevraPet Activate II for dogs and ActiSpot II for cats, as well as Vetality Avantect II for dogs and Advotect II for cats. Its ActiSpot II 6-dose treatment for large cats cost $30 on Amazon.com, as of May 15. The brand-name equivalent, Advantage II for cats, cost more than twice as much – $64 – on Chewy.com.
GDI this makes me mad and happy at the same time. At least now I know. I checked on Amazon and 4 doses of flea and tick repellent is $27! You usually spend as much for a single dose from the other brands.
So I just had to share for anyone else on a budget with a pet.

In the year before the decade change, they set the cats among the pigeons. We were so innocent. We pitied the poor Chinese, welded into their high apartment buildings. We saw video of them calling out their windows for food and help. We saw the Chinese in Italy dying at an unholy rate. A man from China flew to the Northwest, here, and became ill.
They are closing schools now. There are about a tenth of the schools that used to exist. Birth is rare and treacherous. Still men and women do make love and a few children come to birth. Some of them die a few days into life. A healthy child is a rare sight. Their play is carefully watched.
We don't have professional sports now. Too many were dying on the field. It became too horrifying. Most colleges and high schools have given up the tradition of team sports also. Living teen children are too precious. We hope some of them survive their early adulthood. A whole generation is weak and fewer than their parents' generation, or indeed their grandparents' generation. Boomers are stronger than their grandchildren. There are very few great grandchildren.
Goods and services are impossible. Groceries and pharmacies are only open for eight hours on weekdays. Most have self-checkout. No one wants to be at the check stand. Amazon is still standing. Most goods are handled by online shopping. Then we wait for the arrival of a shipment to our houses. Official shopping is done with gov. supplemental funds. It is never enough. Few of us have actual jobs. But they need some of us. We know how things work.
We didn't know it but, WWIII was waged against us. We thought it would take place in the usual way between tanks, guns and jets. There was a lot of Kabuki about Russia, Ukraine and China in the year 2023. But we didn't understand that we were their enemy and that they, the invisible and visible magi were our actual destroyers until it was too obvious to shy away from. The virus, but more, the vaccine, was the means of waging that war. For several years early on people believed and lined up for the shots. Around 2024 even the loudest proponents became silent. That was a relief anyhow.
Still, they needed goods and services, so there are farms, largely poorly run mechanical food factories. There are also special dark farms that run the old way, so that there are good things for them. There are factories for their needs and department stores for them to shop in. We don't have the money, even if they would let us in. You must have a special invisible tattoo on your left cheek for the doors to open to you. There is a reader at the door.
On the street level there are two types of people. We are the survivors walking a tight rope for life. Then there are the bees. Worker bees for the comfort of the powerful and elite. Many of them were what we believed were illegals coming here on their own. But they were brought here to take the place of natives. They mind things for their owners and keep the streets nice to look at. We don't drive cars. They outlawed normal gas runners. There are cars tucked everywhere, unusable. We walk and ride the rare and unreliable buses. They drive fine strange vehicles.
All real houses of sincere worship were closed in 2025, for offensive language and racism. They house third world migrants in them now, also in the hotels and some of the closed high schools and larger buildings of all types. There are home meetings. It's hard to get an invitation to one because of the danger of betrayal.
We make our own music. We use everything up. We make our own food at home. We plant gardens and hope that they escape notice. We keep chickens. We mend clothing. There are tons of used stuff. Everywhere you look there are the material possessions of the dead. We look funny in our secondhand outfits. We try to stay away from medical care. Too many of us go into a hospital, but never come out. We think euthanasia is the main treatment there.
In 2026 President Harris signed a directive making medical care the business of the government. You don't want to end up in a hospital unless there is no other choice. Better to die in peace at home if you must.
There are no more funerals. They outlawed them. Each town has its own crematorium. We are not sure what they do with the ashes. When a family member dies and is processed, the family receives a document officially acknowledging the death.
They tell us we are happy. But we are very weary. Everything changed after the great Reorg. We try to tell the children how life was. You can't blame them for thinking it has always been like this. There is not much in the way of history taught, just stories about how much better it is now. We try to keep our children out of the govco schools. For one thing, schools are literally not safe for a child. We teach them the basics at home.
We have a black underground economy. We have our own currency. They destroy anything they find having to do with our means of buying and selling. But we just start up a printing shop somewhere else and issue new bills, dated when they were made. Old ones lose value quickly. There is a lot of barter where it makes sense. We know we will probably not be able to keep this up forever.
Forever. We know who we are waiting for, and we see the signs. Against all odds, the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is in the the hands of the Israelis. They made a new temple and started the sacrifices again. There is no peace there. A strange malignant figure is being spoken of.
Even so, come Lord Jesus. December of the year 2030.
Much more to come

Online shopping: Benefits and Drawbacks
I. Introduction
Definition of electronic components
Electronic components are basic building blocks of electronic devices and systems. They are physical parts or elements that can be connected together to create a functioning electronic circuit.
Some common electronic components include resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, integrated circuits, and sensors. Each electronic component has its own set of characteristics, including resistance, capacitance, voltage, and current capacity, which are used to design and build circuits for various applications such as computers, telecommunications, medical devices, and consumer electronics.
II. Advantages of Buying Components Online
Buying components online offers several benefits, including:
Convenience: Online shopping allows you to purchase components from the comfort of your own home or office, without having to travel to a physical store. This saves time and effort, especially if you live in an area where component stores are scarce.
Wide selection: Online stores offer a wider selection of components than brick-and-mortar stores. This means you have access to more options and can compare prices and specifications more easily.
Lower prices: Online stores often have lower prices than physical stores. This is because they don't have to pay for rent, utilities, and other expenses associated with running a physical store. Additionally, online retailers can take advantage of economies of scale and offer bulk discounts.
Product reviews: Online stores usually have customer reviews and ratings, which can help you make an informed purchasing decision. You can read about other people's experiences with a particular product and decide if it's right for you.
Easy comparison: Online stores allow you to compare prices, features, and specifications of components from different brands and manufacturers. This makes it easier to find the best product for your needs and budget.
Time-saving: Online shopping saves time by eliminating the need to travel to a physical store and wait in lines. Plus, online stores are open 24/7, so you can shop whenever it's convenient for you.
Overall, buying components online offers many benefits that make it a convenient and cost-effective option for consumers.
III. Disadvantages of Buying Components Online
While there are many benefits to buying components online, such as convenience and a wider selection of products, there are also several disadvantages to consider. Here are some of the disadvantages of buying components online:
Shipping Costs: Many online retailers charge shipping fees for components. This can add up quickly, especially if you need multiple items.
Shipping Delays: Sometimes, components can take longer to arrive than anticipated. This can be frustrating if you need the components urgently.
Quality Concerns: When you buy components online, you cannot physically inspect the components before purchasing them. This can lead to quality concerns, as you may receive components that are defective or of lower quality than you expected.
Fraud and Scams: Buying components online carries a risk of fraud and scams, especially if you are purchasing from an unknown retailer. You may receive counterfeit components.
IV. Conclusion
Recommendation for Shopping Online
Shopping online can be convenient and cost-effective, but it's important to take precautions to ensure that your shopping experience is safe and secure.
Stick to well-known and established websites when shopping for electronic components online, as they are more likely to have secure payment systems and customer service policies in place. For online websites, you can try Robu, Flipkart, amazon, electronics comp, and many more.
Before making a purchase, read product reviews from other customers who have bought the same item. This can help you make an informed decision about whether or not to buy the product.
Look for secure payment options: Always use a secure payment method, such as a credit card or PayPal. These payment methods offer more protection against fraud and unauthorized charges.
By following these recommendations, you can have a safe and enjoyable online shopping experience.

Amazon is increasing/adding fees for its Fresh grocery delivery and I can almost hear the shock and outrage.
Granted, I'm not super thrilled about it obviously but I've been expecting this ever since they started announcing cutbacks and layoffs.
We are writing to let you know about upcoming changes to Prime grocery delivery benefits from Amazon Fresh. Starting Feb. 28, 2023, Amazon Fresh delivery orders under $150 will incur a service fee. Prime members will continue to receive free grocery delivery on orders more than $150. Delivery charges will be $3.95 for orders $100-$150, $6.95 for orders $50-$100, and $9.95 for orders under $50. This service fee will help keep prices low in our online and physical grocery stores as we better cover grocery delivery costs and continue to enable offering a consistent, fast, and high-quality delivery experience. We will continue to offer convenient two-hour delivery windows for all orders, and customers in some areas will be able to select a longer, six-hour delivery window for a reduced fee. We will also keep evolving our Amazon Fresh grocery service, testing and adding more delivery options, and increasing selection of low-priced foods for customers to enjoy. As a Prime member, you continue to enjoy a wide range of shopping, savings, and entertainment benefits, including fast, free delivery on millions of items, unlimited streaming of movies and series with Prime Video, ad-free listening of 100 million songs and millions of podcast episodes with Amazon Music, prescription medications as low as $1 per month and free two-day shipping from Amazon Pharmacy, access to unlimited eligible generic prescription medications for only $5 per month (including free shipping) with RxPass from Amazon Pharmacy, free ultrafast Fresh grocery delivery on orders over $150 (and delivery charges between $3.95 to $9.95 for orders less than $150), in-store savings on select groceries at Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market stores across the U.S., unlimited photo storage with Amazon Photos, free gaming benefits with Prime Gaming, more than 3,000 books and magazines with Prime Reading, Buy with Prime, which offers Prime shopping benefits like fast, free delivery, a seamless checkout experience, and easy returns on online stores beyond Amazon.com, and exclusive deals and shopping events like Prime Day. Prime members can also enjoy a free, one-year Grubhub+ membership trial valued at $9.99 per month, offering unlimited $0 delivery fees on orders over $12. If you have questions about the Amazon Fresh delivery service fee or options for free delivery, you can learn more here.
(The current threshold for "free delivery" through Amazon Fresh is like $36, and if you are below that you get hit with a $9.99 service charge/delivery fee.)

So I have a couple things that I really need to point out here.
It is actually really hard to find a proper binder online. The majority of binders that you can find on Amazon or for cheap are meant for cosplay or acting. They are not meant for everyday wear and often are not safe for wearing everyday which can lead to people getting rib fractures if they buy the wrong ones or bind improperly
It is not that hard to find breast forms online, even if they are not marketed towards transgender women, because of the very large community of women who have had to have their breasts removed due to breast cancer and women who naturally have uneven breasts due to other health issues who wear breast forms on one side to even them out.
You are literally able to make your own breast forms. I know this because I worked for a small charity shop that specifically benefited breast cancer survivors in my teens and I helped them make knitted knockers (the ones I made were actually crochet not knitted but it's a similar process) and you can make a set in under a day if you have a pattern and can knit or crochet in a round. You cannot safely make your own chest binder unless you specifically know what you're doing and it takes very special materials. There is a very big difference between crocheting balls that you can put inside of a bra and making a medical device that is meant to reshape your breast tissue safely.
It is frustrating that it can be harder for trans women to find silicone realistic breast forms without having it be marketed towards crossdressers or other groups who are not trans women, however trans men face the exact same thing because a lot of binders that we buy are actually marketed towards cisgender men with gynecomastia, drag kings, cosplayers, lesbians and actors. It sucks that neither of us are recognized but neither group has to punch down at the other.
I think it should also be mentioned that there are a lot more charities for transgender women to be able to get breast forms and to be able to get help getting new wardrobes than there are for Trans men. I can think of maybe one company that has a binder donation program, but I can think of at least three or four that are able to help people find breast forms and feminine clothing and even wigs.
Maybe instead of shitting on each other's communities, trans men and women should try to make things easier for each other and should help each other find brands that are inexpensive and inclusive. For example, I buy packing boxers from the brand tomboy X and I also buy compression tops to use as binders from them, but they also have tucking panties for transgender women and they have adaptable bras that fit breast forms. Maybe we should be supporting more companies that are inclusive towards all sides of our community like that. Just saying.
I understand that people get frustrated on both sides of the aisle whenever it comes to accessing transgender affirming care products, but it's really frustrating to see people punching down on either side because all of us have it just as shitty.
This is just such a fucking exhausting attitude. You can say trans women deserve better (because they do!) without putting down other trans people.
You are familiar with the difficulties faced by your community, because you're a part of it, and are therefore more likely to see those issues and live through them yourself. You are clearly unaware of the issues trans men and transmascs face, because it's not a community you're a part of or familiar with, and you're choosing to decide that means they don't deal with any difficulties.
It's cruel, it's unnecessary, and it's not reality. It's unhelpful. You are rightfully upset about a real issue but lashing out at the wrong people.
