Experience Tumblr like never before
Hello,
My name is CJ and I’m a trans man. I grew up in a small town in North Carolina and I still live there today. My dad is a Chilean immigrant and he came to this country when he was only 8, spending most of his life in the beautiful land of Puerto Rico. My mom grew up in Florida (where I was born) and has mainly Irish ancestry. I have two older brothers, both in college. One attends Juilliard, the other UNCC. Most of my friends are a part of the LGBTQ+ community. I also have friends who are children of immigrants, just like me.
When I was born, it was induced by medication and I was born 8 weeks early due to a disease my mom had contracted while pregnant with me. We both survived thanks to the doctors and nurses who helped my mom deliver me safely. Due to my premature birth, I have struggled my whole life with chronic illness and disability.
I am telling you all of this because I am scared. Tomorrow is November 5th, Election Day, and depending on who wins I may be in serious danger.
Please, for the sake of me, my friends, my family, the trans community, the chronically ill, the disabled community, immigrants, immigrant families, women who need access to healthcare, and EVERY. SINGLE. American citizen…
I don’t want my rights to be taken from me.
So apparently the 'bad vibes' I’ve been feeling are actually severe psychological distress.
I'm sorry Australia. I didn't vote for him. I'm so sorry my stupid country has become fascist.
the fact that you didnt want this to happen means that its not your fault. while I may not be happy that trump won, I do not blame those who didn't vote for him. i blame the corruption that runs through so many country. i blame those who want to control others with no empathy for them. i blame people like trump for believing the "might is right" concept.
people in america that voted against trump, i do not blame you.
i blame the fucking idiots who run your country and leave you to suffer.
and so help me god if australia follows in their footsteps, I pray that the deaths in this country are smaller than we can hope.
This video is fucking wild because The Matrix was made by TWO TRANS WOMEN and is CONFIRMED TO BE A TRANS ALLEGORY. Media literacy is dead.
The Matrix if it was made in 2024.
I'm working on some coursework, and I hear the group of people in here with me say my friend's name. (My friend is trans, as am I) Misgendering her and making fun of her. They're exaggerating a public convo.
I'm fucking reporting them, this is disgusting.

It’s getting worse to be trans in America, so I made this.
