To my trans and non-binary folks out there. I can’t imagine how much it must hurt down to your bones to have your leaders reject your very existence- and often family members too. Please, please stay in the world, you are valuable, you are worthy, your existence is the undeniable truth.
Hello my loves. I’m sorry all I do is come on here and ask for help, but my health is deteriorating and it’s just necessary at this point for me to ask for help again. Please, if you’re able…
Final Pre-Election 2024 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment Map
Erin Reed has presented a new version of her Anti-Trans Risk Assessment Map over at Erin in the Morning.
She writes:
The elections have tightened across the United States, and anti-trans ads have become a major part of the 2024 campaign cycle. As such, the risk has substantially raised for nationwide laws targeting transgender people in the coming years for both youth and adults.
For states, the state of Texas has been upgraded to Do Not Travel, only the second state to receive such a recommendation. This comes as Odessa, Texas becomes the first city in the nation to pass a $10,000 bounty on transgender people inside of bathrooms.
This is scrumptious. Thank you for the gift of these gifs!
My understanding is that this wouldn’t happen- intubated patients are usually sedated they don’t just wake up spontaneously. Also that ET seems way too short and free of goop. No idea, but coughing while intubated surely doesn’t sound like it normally would, either? Asking for a friend.
And yet, this is still one of my fav tropes. Probably because it’s a multi-whammy: character is being cared for (check), is acutely vulnerable (ding ding ding) and also has to choose to cooperate with the help despite it being invasive and uncomfortable (ugh yes). I just wish it was more accurate, or there was a way to portray something similar that has the same whumpiness-profile but with more accuracy.
..and if you speak German you get additional whumpiness points from dialogue, which is roughly: everything’s okay, it’s okay, it’s almost over, almost over hold on Lukas, keep your eyes open, stay here, eyes open you gave us quite a scare
so does transplant whump the doctors? or just random patients?
They literally whump two main characters in the first episode, another has a heart condition, the random-patient-whump is also relatively good, and in the latest one another main char gets punched in the face and gets all emasculated-complex about it and has flashbacks and it’s.. just.. go watch it.
Ok, not only is Transplant just a medical whumpers wet dream, but the cast is adorable, diverse, and (my fav) there’s a very close-knit work-family vibe happening.
