just 'nother old, tired transfem survival FSSWer, livin' in the gutters of a society that don't want us * clients fuck off * no capitalists allowed (she/her)
I'm Ruby Yesterday, a tired AF older trans survival FSSWer, tryin' to survive without getting beaten down by a world where everyone considers trans women predators, considers sex workers disposable, & neither are desirable or wanted anywhere
what's happenin'?
dis shit blowin' up, so support BIPOC trans people, contribute time and/or money to your local Food Not Bombs chapter, and show empathy and kindness towards unhoused people 💚
hi, survival SWer here
$6000 wouldn't buy me a couch
it would literally change my life because I could finally buy a car and not have to rely on transit and uber to do outcalls at 2 am
I'm noticing a lot of supposed anarchists who don't get the fundamental reason for anarchism:
you cannot trust anyone to be a 100% good actor at all times; power and it's temptation will always corrupt - better to ensure nobody has power over another to ensure we are all equal
there ain't no such gotdamn thing as an 'aspiring' sex worker
it takes ten minutes to sign up for an escort ad site or a clip site, either you're suckin' dick or you're just a groupie

good news! the

treatment with a 99% success rate for this condition is this thing doctors invented called “transitioning to your proper gender with hormones”, you’d be amazed at how many psychiatrists and doctors recommend it!
the reality of being a trans woman online is it only takes one person with a grudge making bad faith accusations against you to rile up a hate mob ready to crucify you
imagine a world where trans girls in poverty had more career options than just “starbucks barista”, “camgirl”, and “prostitute”
that + the fact that most of us *are* in poverty is why so many of us are radicals
I'm a broke trans FSSW fightin' off eviction and I gotta find somewhere safe to stay & come up with money for new housin' + moving expenses
three ways you can help:
1) I need a safe, SW-friendly place to stay
2) share this post
3) DM me for my cashapp/paypal if you wanna donate
@APunishedBill
it’s something I’ve thought about a lot:
how capitalism conditions ppl to be suspicious of any act of generosity, to suspect that anyone giving you something 4 free must have a secret agenda, to be mistrustful of anyone who’s too helpful becuz they might be tryna manipulate you
I wanna revolutionize the sw industry
worker-owned studios and distribution sites that aren't there to squeeze performers for money
worker-owned brothels
kicking racists and queerphobes out of the industry
full decrim and destigmatization, lets do this
all oppressed minorities are allowed to talk about their own oppression w/o being accused of hogging the spotlight from other oppressed groups
this ain't a zero sum game- we can all share our grievances at the system that keeps us down go smoke a dub and touch grass

it's not "she's done bad things", it's "she literally hounds suicidal trans women and doxxes families and threatens people's pets"
she drives targeted harassment at marginalized people and aids and abets fascists from KF

“Again, I've been around men when they thought they were amongst their own.”
^^THIS^^
like if anything trans women have even more reason to distrust men than cis women becuz we’ve seen ‘em when they’re completely mask off! We’ve heard how they talk about women to other men!
If you can’t tolerate any dissent from your maximalist position, are you sure you’re a progressive? Is it left-wing to throw allies under a bus for the slightest disagreement? Probably not. I think some people on here are becoming the caricature the right-wing drew up of them.
them: have some dignity and stop doing sex work!
me: have some humanity and design a society where suckin' dicks for dollas isn't more appealin' than literally every other option
bein’ a hooker is the most empowering job I’ve ever had
I answer to nobody, set my own rules, make my own schedules, and don’t gotta share my earnings w/ some bloodsucking capitalist business owners
it’s eerie how many similarities their harassment has with what I went thru
it’s really hard to believe that yes, ppl really will get so invested in their harassment of someone to go to such extremes, unless it’s happened to you or somebody you know
I'm going to write a thread telling my personal origin story and my clash with internet harassment.
Many of you now know that I am queer, furry, and have ADHD and autism. But when I started on Twitter, I was not open about these things.
imagine what it would be like if you never got no timewasters or guys tryna scam you for free pics
imagine if every text ‘n call to your work phone was a legit payin’ client prepared to screen and put down a deposit 🤔

@KeenlyKatie
no we disabled people aren’t, but there are a lot of disingenuous people claiming to be “disability activists” who are just using this as another thinly veiled attempt to attack someone who’s done nothing wrong
smells like an op to sow distrust tbh
Hey, folks,
@maximillian_alv
here, thought you should see these photos a railroad worker sent me today: ONE day after Congress preemptively broke railroaders' strike & did nothing to stop rail carriers' destructive business practices, 2 Norfolk Southern trains derailed in PA & WV
I'm currently homeless (couch surfing) and the rent for my storage unit w/ all my things is coming due soon but I ain't had a single client for the past couple months; I also need basic toiletries like shampoo, toothpaste, etc
anything helps

got it in one
I bought my prog pride flag from a small queer-owned biz on etsy, and it's nice knowing that money went to actual queer ppl instead of some faceless corporation
maybe I should find a way to make & sell votive saint candles with SWers on them for real for real
could maybe start with Billie Holliday, Marsha P. Johnson, and Aileen Wuornos as the first trio?
once a malicious actor decides to make you a target, anything’s fair game for them; they’ll make up outrageous lies about you, starting with whisper campaigns, escalating to DMing your followers, to full on call-out campaigns once they’ve eroded your support networks enough
