Hello!
My name is Chase, and I’m an 18 year old transgender guy from Seattle, WA. I’m trying to raise money for my reconstructive chest surgery.
I came out as trans* when I was 13 and socially transitioned that year. My medical transition started in April of 2012 at the age of 17 when I started Testosterone. Now, having lived as male for 5 years and having been on Testosterone for a year, I want to move my medical transition forward to get top surgery.
I have no health insurance and I work two minimum wage jobs. I can’t save up money on my own for this, and my family can’t afford to help. I don’t like that I have to ask for help for this, but not knowing if or when I’ll be able to afford to get surgery is taking a toll on my emotional health.
The total on the site is an estimate of what I would need to get my surgery done by my preferred surgeon plus air fare and hotel stay once I’m there. I have not gotten in contact with a surgeon yet, since I don’t know if or when I’ll be able to pay for surgery.
If you could help me out by pitching in or signal boosting this, I would really appreciate it. I’ve seen Tumblr do some amazing things.
Thank you so much,
Chase

THIS IS NOT OKAY. THIS IS NOT OKAY. THIS IS NOT OKAY.
No but that’s illegal.
That is actually illegal.
What the hell.
Hello friends, this is a violation of sections 959.06A and 959.131B of the Ohio state law. The former is a fourth-degree misdemeanor. The latter is a first-degree misdemeanor on the first offense and fifth-degree felony for each subsequent offense. This man shot a litter of kittens, not a single animal as the law is worded, so a case could be made for felony (or four). Either way, this is a crime. There is also the federal Animal Welfare Act which I’m not even going to get into.
According to the AVMA’s annual euthanasia panel, shooting an animal is only considered humane in emergency situations, as in if the animal presents immediate danger or is in too much pain to be moved. It also notes that the euthanasia must take place in a remote location. These kittens were healthy, in no pain, posing no threat to anybody, and were in the immediate vicinity of children.
And, this article has it wrong: Accorti is a humane officer, not a police officer. This is his job description, direct from the North Ridgeville, OH website: “The city employs two part time Humane Officers, who are responsible for enforcing the city and state laws governing the keeping, registration, vaccination, and sanitation of domestic animals.” He’s employed to enforce the state law, so he knew exactly what he was doing.
Please do not let this man walk away unpunished and with his job intact. Make noise. Get the attention of the higher-ups. Sign these petitions. Email or call any of these people: city mayor, district attorney, state attorney general, state senator, state representative, governor, US representative, US senators, or anybody else who has power over the police chief. You can do this even if you don’t live in Ohio.
The lives of five homeless kittens may not seem that important, but officers are not above the law. Barry Accorti could be charged with a felony for his actions if we can get the attention of the people with the authority to make this happen. Please, please, please stand up against animal cruelty and officers who break the law and expect to get away with it.
NOW ALL OF TUMBLR WILL KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU DID, YOU GODDAMNED MURDEROUS PIECE OF FILTH!
I was upset by this news but I didn’t know the laws there so I hadn’t reblogged before because my personal views are not the rules the police should go by. Thank you for looking it up. Reblogging now.

Since it’s summer and this mindset begins to pop up more, let us clarify something.
Girls being upset over being seen in bra/panties but not bikinis is not a double standard.
If she’s in a bikini, it’s what she consciously chose to wear and be seen in, in a public space, and like any outfit she was prepared to be seen in it by other people.
If you’ve caught a girl in her underwear, however, you’re probably trespassing in her bedroom, bathroom, or other personal space, where she should be in privacy, and she has every right to be upset if that privacy is violated.
It’s not about what she’s wearing or what it is covering, but rather her privacy and consent to be seen in the first place. Please respect that.
