I Need Some Advice. Outing Myself A Bit Here, But Im A Trans Guy Who Is Finally Getting Out From Under
I need some advice. Outing myself a bit here, but im a trans guy who is finally getting out from under my parents. Going into this US election, my dad is going to vote for Trump again, along with a large portion of his family. I came out to them more than a year ago, but they have decided not to respect my chosen name, opting to use my dead name instead. They have made it blatantly clear they dont support my transition, but also cant do anything to stop it.
And yet despite how much they've hurt me I still love them. I miss traveling with them, and going to gaming conventions. I miss just hanging out and watching shows with them. I really dont know what to do in this situation. Every time I interact with them my mental health gets worse. I've thought about going no contact, but without them I dont know what I would do. Not to mention some of my supportive family members probably wouldnt talk to me anymore if I did that.
Anyone out there actually manage to change their parents minds to be supportive of their transition? Or any thoughts or advice would be great, im just at a loss of what to do at this point.

Not trans visibility day, but still well worth reposting.
International Trans Day of Visibility
Today we are spotlighting a few of the books from our LGBTQ+ Collection that highlight trans lives and issues. Check out the photo captions to find out what books the images came from.
International Transgender Day of Visibility was created in 2009 by therapist and transgender activist Rachel Crandall Crocker, partially as counterweight to Trans Day of Remembrance, a day of memoriam for all those lost to transgender violence. Crocker wanted “a day that we can just celebrate being ourselves.” More recently, Crocker spoke about the double-edge sword of visibility for trans folks, and called on allies of trans people to make themselves more visible. So for all the cis people reading this, think hard about how you are going to show up for the trans community today, and every day.

are we ever gonna get a character as iconic as gerry keay ever again? ghost goth boy with paranormal mommy issues and a vendetta against books. the oiar wishes it was graced with such presence
Seems to be a fairly Do It Yourself kind of man. Not unreasonable to assume that extends to human bodies as well. Tenatively Trans Masc Icon.
how do we feel about this. do we think dr. tranny is a transmasc icon or a joanne katherine rowling.
hahaha

FIRST PRIDE!! THIS SHIS AMAZING! I get it now
Everyone here is such a gender! Theres multiple drag queen shows! The merch! The corporate support is a bit sketch, as I know a lot of it is just showing fake support. But most of the booths are genuinely here and queer. Theres a gay mens camping group!
Man, just out here loving my best life
Genuinely love this concept, adding it to my next rpg
WAIT. Wait wait WAIT.
poltergeists:
push things off tables
break delicate objects for fun
in general just enjoy moving and destroying stuff for pleasure I guess
make loud disturbing noises in the middle of the night
sometimes poke or bite people, depending on the myth
are invisible aka no one knows what they look like
poltergeists are just the ghosts of rambunctious housecats

This is my main tumblr. It's going to be filled with random things that are cool. This includes technology, space, some fandom stuff, and sometimes PSA's. Have fun, and maybe find something new.
