Switching to this as my pinned post. Expect it to be edited a lot.

My threads on Florida effectively banning gender affirming care for trans adults:
Several bills have been signed into law - original monster post collection. The trans healthcare bans are effective immediately, but an order currently allows trans people with active HRT prescriptions to get refills. Here’s the fallout just a few days into it.
The proposed “informed consent” guidelines are looking to be worse than the Harry Benjamin days. Would affect all trans people seeking/continuing care in Florida and require multiple medical/psych assessments every 3 months, looks to deny care for multiple reasons due to harsh and discriminatory criteria.
I have not been covering the injunctions, but they currently only target the ban on care for youth, and they currently only apply to the families involved.
Starting in July, cis people can demand trans people vacate bathrooms and other same-sex designated spaces owned/leased by the state, under penalty of arrest. This would apply to facilities in parks, airports, etc.
Advice for trans youth in Florida.
An additional vaguely worded bill makes “damaging” children’s sexual organs a capital felony, punishable by death. But as of now, drag is not eligible for the death penalty, despite some alarming Twitter screencaps.
If you need to de-stress a little, I have ~ 3 years of nightly photos of my cats under my “good night” tag.
The rest of my posts tend to be fandom and aesthetic things to keep myself from doom-scrolling.
For friends who want to know if I’m safe (I am).
Moving updates:
I have enough HRT to last until my move (fingers crossed), and currently a 90 day supply of my heart meds.
