FLORIDA TRANS PALS, IT IS TIME TO PLAN

Especially if you are on HRT!

HB1421 is a bill that severely affects access to gender affirming care, including for adults. It outlines goals to:

1) Prohibit changing gender markers on birth certificates

2) Require that gender affirming care only come from physicians (not nurse practioners) who take on liability insurance for 30 YEARS after they provide care to a patient

3) Require informed consent forms at every single appointment, including distributing literature to dissuade patients

4) Ban transition care completely for minors

5) Make it so providers who accept state funds cannot provide gender affirming services (this is the big one that stands to affect anyone who takes medicare/aid, is a university, etc.).

6) Make it so providers who accept state funds cannot reimburse for gender affirming services.

We are facing a return to the Harry Benjamin days, or worse, an effective ban unless you are fortunate/wealthy enough to find a willing provider.

If it passes, this bill would take effect July 1, 2023. That is not a lot of time.

I would not count on any Rx or refill request to be honored after this date if the prescribing and dispensing sources no longer are allowed to grant care or decide to drop care because of the penalties.

July 1, 2023. Unless we hear otherwise, that is your clock.

This sucks, but there is comfort in seeing a clear date to plan around and the worst case is no longer completely unknown. It begins July 1.

--------------------------------------------

YOUR HOMEWORK, DUE ASAP:

--------------------------------------------

1) Get any and all your HRT appointments in now, including picking up your meds and doing bloodwork promptly.

2) If you think you will be living in FL come July, start looking now for providers where physicians - not NPs - provide the care. Get an appointment on the books for July. Be prepared to go in person for everything after July 1, because I believe telemed will also be shit-canned. Here is a map of informed consent providers.

3) If you are an old like me, also dig up your HRT permission slip from your therapist. Fuck, make a packet of all your transition documents, including Rx history.

4) If you are on private insurance, start budgeting now to prepare to pay out of pocket.

5) Create a simple spreadsheet of all your HRT dates (pls forgive, my experience is with shots on a 2 week cycle, so this is pretty easy for me to do) and plan out how long your current supply will last. Then, forecast how long all your upcoming refills before July 1 will last. Update it every time you pick up and take your meds. Refer to it for decisions like moving or finding backup providers.

6) Subscribe to the bill to get notified of changes asap

7) Follow this site to keep tabs on other very scary bills happening in Florida, including a bathroom ban and a child custody bill that is effectively kidnapping

8) If you need to change your birth certificate, do it now, pay the rush fees and write RUSH on the envelope. The Department of Health has the most up-to-date forms. Processing time for rush I last saw was around 18 business days.

9) Now that your own oxygen mask is on, so they say, boost mutual aid and recruit allies to assist in any way possible.

-----

Do try to continue seeing your current provider as long as possible, as they likely will need your support. Talk to them frankly about their plans if the bill passes.

Now. I am just a little guy and not a legal expert, but the aggressive enactment date on this bill makes me feel like everyone should plan now instead of waiting to see if it passes.

Be safe, plan, and then get a little rest. Do not lose hope - this bill could still fail.

Some sketches because it's been months since I drew these idiots oops☝️🥰

HI THERE. It's been a minute, sorry about that lol. I took a tiny out-of-nowhere and sorta involuntary break from the fandom because I lost interest for a second, but I'm slowlyyyy making my way back. With art, and some news about Tone Deaf for the people who are still wondering about that.

Also I see there's some asks in my box, I'll get to that eventually, I see you ;-; dw

--------------------

As stated, I momentarily lost a bit of interest with this movie- partially because I've recently been ensnared in a new fixation that will not be named right now, but yeah. I'm digging my heels in rn, because the last thing I wanna do is abandon this project. But, also, I've clearly bitten off more than I can chew with this being a comic lmao. In over my head and going through all 5 stages of grief and currently on acceptance.

The story got bigger. Like, a LOT bigger. Too big to capture every thought in a drawing and panel it and put it out as a perfectly polished comic without seriously burning myself out. It really doesn't help that my art style evolves by the second too apparently, so I've reached a middle-ground:

Tone Deaf is going to be a fic with some comic-like segments in it. An illustrated fanfic bc I still love showing and not telling a little too much.

This'll help me not only get stuff out faster, but also to help me fill in the gaps I didn't know how to draw with just text. So I can focus on just drawing the juicy shit. This also means it'll all be collected over on Ao3 in a neat little package, and I honestly prefer that over having a bunch of posts of pages that might be hard to find. So yeah, that's the plan.

Another bonus is that the frames can now be a lot more polished and nice looking [in glorious color] rather than hastily mashed together due to my bad habit of going overboard on singular frames without realizing it.

--------------------

Tldr; Tone Deaf is technically still gonna be a comic, it's just now gonna be supplemented with word-based fic mixed in because I made the project way too fucking big [the first Act has like 20 chapters I'm going to literally die]. Also it's gonna be on Ao3 and I'll probably be posting all the art here alongside any updates I make so huzzah! Help me :>

#UPDATE POST #Sing: Tone Deaf #sing movie #sing 2016 #sing 2021 #Buster Moon #Meena sing #Johnny sing #Mike the Mouse #tiny little pictures of Ash and Eddie too heehee #furry art #fanart #anthro #traditional art #sketches #it's been 5 months since I last posted #never let me do that again #also my art style's changed an itty bitty bit #just a little #finally updated how I draw Buster's ears and have an actual method for drawing Johnny >:] still unsure on Meena and Mike #I think this is the final plan for TD #gonna try posting more trust me #uwu #I always come back

"lmao wouldn't it be cool if I made it look like I got possessed and kms for a Halloween video that'll be fun I think"

My supernatural rewatch and it being nov 5 has made me start thinking about the "old tumblr" stuff so I wanted to make it a poll!

#obviously this isnt a full list but its what i remember the best #also about the bandom blogs: im basing that mainly on the fact that most of the bandom stuff ive wanted to look at #have been inactive since like 2016 #i see bandom stuff a lot rarer now. still some and i def know they still exist but bandom tumblr used to feel bigger #polls #old tumblr #superwholock #dan and phil

Still spouting anti-vote bullshit huh?

You're literally one of the first people Trump is going to go after, but go off I guess. Hope the hell Trump's got brewing for you is everything you wanted.

Fuck Biden but by god fuck you for pushing Trump forward for him to "learn his lesson"

I'm not anti-voting, I'm pro Biden and Trump catching these hands (in a video game). I was agreeing with the sentiment of white liberals who suck Biden through his old man jorts every day have 0 idea how difficult it is to know the ballot will be between genocidal maniac and genocidal maniac as a queer poc. Shut the fuck up and go out and participate in the political process. Help out in communities that may need aid with getting people registered to vote and at the polls this year. I promise it's far more important than sending me a dumbass message.

Also by "still," I assume you're still following me knowing what my stance is. If you have an issue with a post, talk to the OP, not someone reblogging it. Unless you're sending this same message to every person who's liked or reblogged that post (which lol weird if you are) then stop picking the target you know is a minority. It's a bad look 😘

#talk about a bad take like #anon if you knew me irl you'd know that I have been ready to bite since 2016 #ask

[mcgnussen]

the new video with all the drivers answering "most likely to... in vegas" has just once again proven to me that kevin and esteban are actually friends since ocon clearly knows about kevin's tattoo on his toe that he got while out drinking with his friends 😂

for those who do not know, it's a camel tattoo on his big toe... yes, it means what you think it means. k-mag said he regretted it the moment he woke up hungover the next day! 💀

#kevin magnussen #esteban ocon #i sometimes forget they have been friends since kevin's renault days in 2016 #kevin was like esteban's og grid dad because he really spent a lot of time with ocon when he was a reserve driver

I'm falling back into my trollhunters/toa hyperfixation

Is the fandom still alive other than straggling fanartists, or did rott kill it?

#tbh i hyperfixate on it at least once a year #ive been doing annual rewatches since the show first came out #Becoming pt1 always gives me sm nostalgia #i LVOE this show sm i dont even have the words to describe it #the movie actually broke my heart #im trying not to let it ruin the rest of the shows for me but its difficult :/ #trollhunters #tales of arcadia #3below #toa wizards #but yeah ive loved trollhunters since it first released in 2016 and i desperately need people to talk abt it with #i can only infodump to my friends (only one of which has actually watched it) for so long #Moth.txt

[autumnsxxangel]

My favorite Chris era is his 100% Entertainment hosting era, but especially when his brother goes on his show because his younger brother energy tends to come out and it either ends up super competitive or with TMI stories.

Also, dirty jokes...so many dirty jokes.

#關於未知的我們 #chris chiu #taiwanese drama #prince chiu #邱宇辰 #王子 #unknown #unknown the series #mydramalist says chris started hosting in 2018 #but he's definitely been hosting since 2016 #he's become so much more mature now #but young chris was so unhinged #i have a bunch of older episodes i want to sub #they're 40 mins long though so itll take some time #Youtube

[i-write-sin-not-tragedy]

I was so fucking right

Alastor cares.

That scene of him watching them all. Fondly saying he could get used to this before shurgging it off.

Calling them his friends for the first time, even in passing in a song.

Hes desperate to be free of his chains and suddenly so much about him makes so much sense to me.

And i do genuinely from my heart believe he is starting to care.

And thats why hes getting so fucking freaked out. Caring is dangerous. Caring means you can get hurt.

Like yes, he wants power and to be free of his deal! But god, they wouldn't have shown those little bits for nothing. No, no, he's caring. Just a little.

I am so ready to watch this man slowly be redeemed against his will, you have no idea.

#hazbin hotel #alastor hazbin hotel #nothing any of you say will change my mind on this #i have believed this about him since 2016 and its just been reinforced in my mind now

i haven’t been actively in phandom since 2016 and i came across your anniversary theory the other day while trying to catch up, and since you originally wrote it in 2018 i was wondering if there’s been any new details in the meantime! (if this is okay to ask)

i'm so sorry but i'm medicated now

#jam replies #totally okay to ask! i just haven't been on my essay writing shit since i was kind of dying and unmedicated for that while #overmedicated for my adhd (they had me on 40 mg of adderall a day) and also having like.. a redbull a day #singapore trip 2017 overlapped w japhan and blackpool #they didn't go on trips in 2016 or 2018 bc of tour #2019 was the leadup to coming out and they didn't go on a trip in april so i was certain they“ #*they'd come out & then they went to japan actually in the fall so like #the six month delay hasn't been necessary so there isn't ever going to be an update to the theory but if u wamt to see my past asks etc #you can check my #anniversary theory #tag

[kakashisthickthighs]

i am thinking about if getou and gojo really did continue talking afterwards and like the tiny intricate details and logistics of their lives.

they part in 2007. they had flip phones.

getou dies in 2016. they had iphones, instagram, snapchat, and dog filters.

when getou first goes rogue, shoko and gojo probably still have his number and are blowing his shit up. he probably has his phone off for the first days of it and turns it back on after. there’s no need to trash it out of a want to stay hidden—he won’t die unless they send an army or gojo himself.

when he turns his cell back on, he’s half-tempted to delete all his photos of jujutsu tech, with shoko, with gojo, and he gets as far as deleting maybe 15 of them in a heavy-breathed rage before convincing himself that maybe he doesn’t need to delete these. these are mementos of the said pinnacle of jujutsu, and they’ll come in handy when there are no non-sorcerers left.

he’s about to put the cellphone away before it rings. it’s satoru. he sighs. he calls once every day. it’s relentless, six or seven calls at minute intervals. getou almost laughs at it—the world’s strongest, desperate.

a month after his disappearance, he calls every night at ten. sometimes the pixels on his cell read 10:04, 10:21, the latest was 10:42. it becomes a ritual, agonizing every night wanting to finally beat gojo at something, to make him lose. but suguru finds himself holding his breath as 10pm wanders by every day, breathing easy only when his phone stops buzzing.

maybe one night he’s yet again alone in his shoebox apartment, assorted belongings littered about, convincing himself this was the best path for him. not jujutsu tech, the horrible missions, the loneliness, the taste. it feels better here, where no one else is happy.

he’s lost in a daze when his phone rings. it’s been three months and satoru won’t let up. every night. he scoffs and flips his cell open just to sneer and make a point, to feel powerful in his own mind, but once the line connects, he’s silent, mouth agape and eyes wide that he actually picked up.

he hears static from the other side, a shift of fabric, a shaky inhale. “suguru, you fucking idiot,” gojo sneers, loud on the other end, “what’d ya pick up by accident?”

getou can’t help but laugh from the bottom of his heart. his abs are burning and tears are falling by the time he contains himself, and memories flood back. selfies, dumb finds, food pics, phone bills crazy all from hours on the phone together. there’s satoru’s voice, and then there’s lofi samsung static-lined satoru’s voice. both sound like home.

“suguru—“

“satoru,” he breathes, and this is what it feels like to talk again. he’s lived in this apartment in silence for the past three months, voices only coming from his saved videos.

“come home, suguru.” they both know it’s impossible.

getou chuckles again into the speaker. he can almost see it, satoru’s spindly form, one leg propped up on a chair, elbow resting on it as he holds the phone in distaste. or maybe he’s completely prone, jolted awake by a voice he hadn’t expected to hear.

“satoru, you’ll be fine,” he chimes, hanging up. he squeezes his eyes shut and swallows a sigh, and just like that, he’s left home again.

three years later the calls have stopped. the iphone 4 comes out, and the world is awash in touch screens, app stores, and missing charging cables. it’s time for an upgrade, and getou powers off his flip phone—his youth—one last time and tucks it gingerly into a shoebox. he starts completely anew with no data to transfer.

gojo meticulously transfers every contact and double checks only one number. it’s the first call he makes on his new phone.

the number you have dialed is not in service—

he hangs up and slows his breathing. he doesn’t delete the number. suguru, the contact reads.

you’ll be fine.

#jujutsu kaisen #i am filled with hatred #jjk #jjk headcanons #idk why this wouldn’t be canon #they might as well animate this #jjk gojo #jjk geto #satosugu #gojo satoru #geto suguru #and then by 2016 everyone’s on ig and snap gojo prob has ten thou on ig and so does getou and they look each other up once and never again #till a few months later getou has memorized how many ppl gojo is following and looks at all their profiles and checks all his tagged posts #sees his new students and then glances at mimi and nana #could that have been me? our students? but decides his life is good and his life is enough and this is what he wanted and he’s happy #it’s easier to convince himself now since it’s been so long #after all they’re grown now and three bright years of youth would’ve passed anyhow and anyway and now it’s over foreal

[gawayne]

if I’m honest I’m kind of baffled that there’s anti-voting content going around. again. you cannot have forgotten so quickly how bad trump was and how hard the republicans tried to prevent you from voting. did you forget the russian bots??

#whatever #it’s genuinely disheartening to watch americans throw away their political influence over empty morals #in an election that could so easily destroy your own country’s politics too and that you can’t even vote in #alberta has been descending into authoritarianism especially around trans healthcare since 2016 #republican politics are becoming more and more popular in the federal government #when america shrugs and says actually it doesn’t matter if a fascist moron gets into office. both parties are the same. #it does send a message to right wingers internationally #it’s so frustrating. america’s cultural influence is so massive #yknow people here carry around the confederate flag and talk about their constitutional rights now. we don’t HAVE a constitution #anyway

All That's Left follows two journalists and their friends in post-apocalyptic United States as they travel from the fallen east coast megalopolis Opportunity back to Los Angeles, crossing through a harsh wasteland overrun with zombies— only to find out that there is a lot more life left than what the protected cities want them to believe. On their journey they meet dozens of people living their lives as peaceful as possible away from military forces, corporations, and corrupt governments; and they learn that the same mutated ghouls that took down Opportunity are spreading rapidly through the country, destroying everything in their path. Will this finally be the end of the world as we know it?
