Abled Person: Hey Man, Can You Hold This Wad Of $2,000 And This One Penny For Me While I Open My Wallet?

A lot of “progressive” people on here strike me as the types that absolutely relish in being ableist but they have managed to find more socially acceptable ways to do that so many other progressives don’t notice it or consider it justified.

The most known and controversial example is the whole “These abnormal people are cringe and deserve abuse” thing but there are other patterns that seem to cause less pushback.

This is exactly what I mean when I say the society even more “progressive” societies are inherently ableist

Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor

a pharmacy i used sold my information and some company sent me a letter with my name on the envelope but I haven't had it legally changed yet because I'm still closeted and pre transition because I still have to live with family members until I can receive rental assistance and they are mostly all transphobes and my uncle who I have to stay with collects the mail and saw it and gave it to me with a bad attitude and hasn't spoken to me in days I don't know what he is thinking about it but this has given me a ton of anxiety and feeling emotionally unsafe please help me get out of here!

Help me pay first months rent and move-in-fee

Hello everyone, My name is Tiffany I'm trans, autistic, disabled and cant work with chronic fatigue syndrome, executive dysfunction and I have avoidant personality disorder/high anxiety and don't have a social support network that is supportive of me being transgender I've never been employed and am basically unemployable I'm in the process of getting benefits like ssi, snap, medicare, and medicaid but in order to receive rental assistance I need to be able to pay first months rent and a move in fee but I'm practically unable to because of how little I'm getting right now and how fast the money goes due to things like food, my phone bill, some goes to my uncle's rent and bills, and I would just want some support temporarily until all these government assistance processes are completed witch would take long because first I need to find one available and the cheapest apartments I can apply for in my area are $1800 to $2300 plus security deposit then it would need to be inspected for approval and then hopefully I can finally live on my own planning to hopefully live on all that but its taking longer then expected and i would love to move out sooner then later so I can begin to live the way I want to live away from bigoted and abusive members of my family

Transgender Americans brace for Trump presidency after campaign promoted anti-trans rhetoric | CBC News

Transgender Americans are bracing for attacks from the White House and in their own neighbourhoods after Donald Trump's U.S. election victor

Reed says trans people living in Democrat-run states have been able to live "relatively peacefully and freely" over the last few years, even as anti-trans bills have been passing in Republican state legislatures amid a rise in anti-trans rhetoric.  She does not expect that peace to last much longer. "Everything that I've seen in the reddest of state legislatures, I'm expecting to see all of that at a federal level, at minimum," Reed said. "I'm expecting Trump to likely use his office to target transgender people in blue states." The ACLU has tracked 531 anti-LGBTQ bills across the U.S. in this year's legislative session alone, including restrictions on gender-affirming care and pronoun changes in schools. Reed expects Trump to target trans youth in schools, end or obstruct access to medical care for trans people of all ages and end passport gender marker changes.

its been 17 days since i posted my crowd funding post and so far only one person donated $20 anonymously (thank you to that person) but I'm not getting what i need in time (apartments get taken fast) and i don't know where i should turn for help for donations and signal boosting

@ Canadians

I think we have a solid factual basis and enough supporting evidence that (provided that the conservatives lose the election) we may have a case to have Canada alter or withdraw from its safe third country agreement with the United States and begin to accept trans refugees from there.

But this is not going to happen if we don't demand it and present information that should lead to an update to the law.

So in addition to voting in the next election, please try to get in contact with local immigrant and LGBTQ advocacy groups and organize to bring this information before those who could act on it, including phone calls to members of parliament.

It is time to take action. We can't just assume someone else will do it in our place.

As a refugee myself, I am already gathering allies and information to coordinate actions from the shadows. I am hopeful that this can be done.

I'm on social security, disability, snap, medicare/medicaid and am in the process of having those benefits expanded and also receive rental assistance and was planning to hopefully live on that but I'm not sure what the near future of those services will be or how long they will last also the state of the economy in the near future and if I need to I have never set up a gofundme or anything like that

I need to start asking for help and advice but I don't know where to start or how to go about it

In the latest meeting with Nayib Bukele, where they confirmed they will not be releasing the guy they imprisoned because of an administrative error, Trump once again floated the idea of also selling US citizens into slavery in El Salvador.

He said he wants to "deport" as many people as possible, and has already shown he considers things like Tesla vandalism and anti-genocide protests to be a good enough reason to do it.
