Help a Homeless Transgender Woman Raise $300 to Buy a Trailer to Live in and Restart Her Life

Sunday, December 22nd 2024

I am a homeless transgender woman living in Slab City, California, a squatter town in the Sonora Desert.

I have lived here for 5 years with the project of building up our community and trying to organize us under the values of autonomy and collective independence.

Recently I have gone through some hard times and lost nearly everything I have built in that time, including my home. I need help to build myself back up and start my project to rebuild our community.

Please help me raise $300 to afford a trailer to live in and use as the starting point of a new community camp.

Cash App: $ThistleDD

Venmo: @ThistleDD

I appreciate everyone's help in donating to get me back on my feet. Thank you!

When I was a very suicidal trans activist in Texas, Benjamin Sisko saying “sure, you would [die for your people]. Dying gets you off the hook. The question is: are you willing to live for your people?” changed and possibly saved my life. It’s up there with “if we are going to be damned, let us be damned for who we really are” from Picard. Star Trek not only shows us a better world, it teaches us how to make it there

i don't care how uncomfortable you are around cis men, queer cis men still need places to go, and sometimes, those spaces will be shared with yours. disabled and neurodivergent queer men and queer men of color especially need a place to go. the queer community isn't the "fuck cis men" community. that is the rad fem community. if you think cis men and people who read as cis men are inherently "too scary" or shouldn't be allowed in queer spaces, you joined the wrong community.

Queer 👏 people 👏 are 👏 not 👏 all 👏 fucking 👏 activists 👏

Stop quizzing us on queer history and asking us questions we aren’t qualified to answer about the world and about politics and about our identities

Stop trying to back us into a corner so you can justify your discrimination on the basis that we don’t know what we’re talking about or can’t “defend” ourselves to you

Stop treating every queer person that stands up and says “I want to be treated like a person” as if they’re an activist

Cut that bullshit out

Marginalised people just want to exist and be happy

I don’t know everything, and that doesn’t make me undeserving of your respect or my human rights you fucker

I don’t even owe you the stuff I do know- I still am entitled to basic fucking respect

TLDR; Queer people shouldn’t have to be historians or scientists for you to not be a fucking dick

saying "who said that" at the end of a sentence is a lot funnier when you're plural. who DID say that

2023 Nativity Scene at the Evangelical Lutheran Christmas Church, Bethlehem, Palestine

"In Gaza today, God is under the rubble. He is in the operating room. If Christ were to be born today, he would be born under the rubble. We see his image in every child killed and pulled from under the rubble. In every child in incubators," writes Rev. Munther Isaac of the church.

"Magic cares about what something means, not what it literally is. So when we adopted you into this family, when you truly accepted us as your parents, you became part of it in the eyes of magic. Which is why you've begun to manifest some aspects of our bloodline."
