I really do feel like it's impossible to overstate how big a difference HRT has made to my life.

I used to read other people posting the same about their experiences with HRT and either assume they were romanticizing it to balance out all the demonization of it, or that they were just "more dysphoric" than me and that I would not experience a dramatic effect to my mental well-being if I tried it.

but now I read the posts & I'm like wow everyone was telling me this so straightforwardly for so long and I should have believed them and I should have considered applying that to myself

anyway if you are debating whether or not you should try HRT, I really recommend erring on the side of trying it. you won't know how it affects you until you do, but damn if it's good for you it can really profoundly change your outlook on yourself, your body, and your future.

Hello 👋,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Aziz, and I’m reaching out with a heartfelt plea to help my family find safety and reunite with our mother. 😞

The ongoing war in Gaza has torn my family apart. My mother and newborn sister are stranded in Egypt, while I, along with the rest of my sex family members, am trapped in the midst of the genocide in Gaza. We have not only been separated but have also lost our home and are enduring unimaginable hardships. 💔

Your support can make a difference. Whether by reading our story, donating, or sharing our campaign with others, you can help us reunite, find safety, and start anew. 🙏🕊

Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for your kindness, compassion, and solidarity during this difficult time. ❤🍉

LOYALTY TO LOVE / SOLIDARITY BEYOND STATES, 2024

queer as in fuck genocide. queer as in fuck nationalism, borders, surveillance & repression. queer as in fuck the cycles of violence that fascists grow by scattering seeds of fear & anger in the bloody soil of collective trauma. queers know safety will never come from the state, only from each other.

for years Zionists have been telling me how "stupid" and "self-hating" i am as a queer/trans anti-Zionist Jew, citing Israel's supposed (pinkwashed) status as a "haven" for people like me. this total erasure/dehumanization of queer & trans Palestinians has always disgusted me. queer Israeli "safety" is a lie, but even if it was true, i want no part of it at the expense of occupation & genocide. the only way forward is embracing each other in direct opposition to those who profit off endless violence.

this piece was made entirely in Procreate (with True Grit Texture Supply's Rusty Nib engraver brushes & Adilson Farias' watercolor brushes). hoping to get some prints made & use a percentage of the profits to support Operation Olive Branch's direct aid initiatives - stay tuned.

All the takes are correct and yet they also miss the point. Yes, it was insane for the Democrats to think they could win by running a soulless candidate, without a shred of progressive policy vision, pursuing endorsements from neocon war-hawks everybody hates, while arming and funding a genocide, and belittling and crushing those who have enough morality to protest it. It is enraging that the Democrats are so smug and blind to this. But these are all just symptoms. The deeper reality is that liberalism has failed, liberalism is dead, and people urgently need to wake up to this fact and respond accordingly. It is a defunct ideology that cannot offer any meaningful solutions to our social and ecological crises and it must be abandoned. Democrats have proven over and over again that they cannot accept even basic steps like public healthcare, affordable housing, and a public job guarantee - things that would dramatically improve the material, social and political conditions of the working classes. And they cannot accept a public finance strategy that would steer production away from fossil fuels and toward green transition to give us a shot at a liveable future. Why? Because these things run against the objectives of capital accumulation. And for liberals capital is sacrosanct. They will do whatever it takes to ensure elite accumulation, it is their only consistent commitment. At home, they suppress and demonize progressive and socialist tendencies. Abroad, they engage in endless wars and violence to suppress input prices in the global South and prevent any possibility of sovereign economic development. The Democrats have done all this purposefully and knowingly, for my whole life, not as some kind of "mistake" but in full consciousness that it is in the interests of capital. And because liberalism cannot address our crises, and because it crushes socialist alternatives, it inevitably paves the way for right-wing populism. They know this pattern, and yet they risk it every time - this election being only the most recent example. They did it in 2016, when they actively crushed the Sanders campaign and sent Trump to the White House. They do it because ultimately they (and I mean the liberal ruling class here) don't really mind if fascists take power, so long as the latter too ensure the conditions for capital accumulation. They 100% prefer this to the possibility of a socialist alternative. So, progressives have to face reality. The dream of "converting" the Democratic party is dead. This is now a fact and it must be accepted. The only option is to build a mass-based movement that can reclaim the working classes and mobilize a political vehicle that can integrate disparate progressive struggles into a unified and formidable political force and achieve substantive transformation. This will take real work, actual organizing, but it must be done and that process must begin now.

I don't believe anything white tumblr queers say about the virtues of 'building community' when they've made it clear 'community' to them means 'me and my white friends.' what are you building? a polycule on a hobby farm?
