I need to heal and recover. Apparently reaching out to those who ‘seem to like you’ does nothing to keep me moving. I need to get away from everything.

”To me, what hurts me, is the fact that you are told all the times: “we are equal” like “I don’t know what is your deal” like “what is your fucking issue with this or with that?” but then you realize: no, actually we are not! You are getting paid more than I. You get to have more options in terms of what you want to watch for entertainment. When you go to the movies you have 90 movies. 90 different stories that you can watch through your eyes, through the eyes of a male. And one complain that I might make - one observation - that’s actually very very truth about the fact that there isn’t enough things for us, for women out there it’s like ”shut up!” Why aren’t you happy? Why can’t you just be like every girl? Just… why do you always have to try to be the man? It’s not even about trying to be the man, it’s about trying to feel significant, trying to feel equal, trying to believe that my purpose in life was more than just be half of something else and deliver the packages, the kids to this individual so that they can glorify themselves. By the time of my 30’s and I fall in love and I have a career, I’m gonna be making less than a man, I’m gonna lose my name to a man. […] And by the time that they come back they are unattractive!

The lack of intelligence that people have is mind blowing. How can you not know what to do about Carbon Monoxide? I swear if didn’t go to college, I’d be dead by now.

GAH!!

Scinerds: New Candidate Drug Stops Cancer Cells, Regenerates Nerve Cells:

ScienceDaily (June 21, 2012) — Scientists have developed a small-molecule-inhibiting drug that in early laboratory cell tests stopped breast cancer cells from spreading and also promoted the growth of early nerve cells called neurites.

Wage gap also exists for trans* individuals.

Wage gap also exists for trans* individuals. :

socialistexan:

[Note: article also includes information on pay gap affecting cos gay people as well]

There’s been a lot of talk lately about the pay disparity between cis men and women (and the even larger gap for PoC), however this discussion usually excludes how the pay gap affects trans* individuals.

The numbers are actually pretty shocking:

Transgender individuals also face significant wage disparities on the job. This is especially true for transgender women. One study found that the earnings of female transgender workers fell by nearly one-third [33%] following their gender transitions. Interestingly, that same study found that the earnings of male transgender workers slightly increased following their transition. As such, transgender men may actually experience a wage advantage rather than a wage penalty. This research strongly indicates that in addition to facing significant workplace discrimination in hiring and firing based on their gender identity, transgender women experience significant gaps in pay largely attributable to their gender.

This is actually comparable to cis men and women as well, as cis women make nearly 25% less than their cis male counterparts. However, trans women earn even less, and trans men do not make as much as their cis brethren. It also probably goes without saying (as the study ignored race data), that trans PoC most likely make even less than white trans people.
