ID: Text in the style of the “the more you know” slogan which says “remember your roots”. Under the text instead of a shooting star with a rainbow trail is a red brick with a sparkly progress flag as its trail
Guns are cheap btw.
Lemmy 0.19.5 has captions, no need to (ab)use the post body
Good to know some people see accessibility as abusive…
This is definitely a you problem. Deal with it, ableist.
help trans people by teaching them about diy hrt. it’s way more effective than putting pronouns in your bio. read up on how HRT works on https://transfemscience.org and learn about which sellers have been tested by a third party on https://transharmreduction.org/hrt-testing
edit for context: the frustration in this comment isn’t directed at op but at LGBT people that are like “be gay do crime!” but when it comes to actually doing crimes and being LGBT they suddenly care a lot about what the law says trans people should be allowed to do. all bark no bite. though that’s not relevant to my point, I mostly just want people to learn about diy hrt
This is all incredibly valid, salient, and informative. However, it should be stressed that DIY is inherently dangerous and can really go bad. Only do so if you are more than confident in your ability to do everything involved.
I started transition in the early 2000’s before the terms “transition” or even “transgender” were even remotely mainstream. HRT wasn’t a real thing that you could just get prescribed.
I guess what I’m saying here is that if you have the option and capability, it is worth it (and safer) to do HRT legit. Don’t wind up like me with bare bones information and skill, winding up going through a weird pseudo menopause in your 20’s.
I have nothing against the idea of DIY, but please stay safe and informed. Don’t trust a single source of information.

You’re good, and so are any resources that can help people get through this.
Just going to leave this here

If you can’t leave you should be looking into firearms education look up SRA, Pink Pistols, and concealed carry as often as possible. Seek out LGBTQ firearms education like farenough_42
