Hi

Following the anti-trans agenda of the new administration, and the deletion and rewording of the contents of the CDC and other gov websites, how do we feel about this here?

I don't know the geographical distribution of the visitors to this forum, but surely have some from the USA. US politics have a way of affecting us in the UK and EU.

I was.... considering ordering some Estradiol cream from the US, but given all the anti-trans sentiment and the trade tariffs, not likely to order now.

Ainterol is Thailand, correct, not USA? Barlowes is USA?

Anything we need to have archived, such as this forum and the sister forum BreastNexus, "just in case"?

Trans women in the US are like Jews in Germany in 1933 right now. I'm not joking, it is extremely scary alarming shit that shouldn't be happening.

My advicer is to go full DIY, right NOW! No delays! source everything you need and do it NOW! Not just medical needs either. For anybody in Europe, stock up on HRT NOW, today, tomorrow, soon. Get what ever is possible, with estradiol, stock up on injectables or get raws and homebrew, that stuff lasts easily for years in good condition. Ready made ones in Castor oil last +5 years, in MTC oil over +8 years. Prog lasts about a year, blockers are near forever. Stock up now!

Also if you're friends with any trans people, time to help them and be the ally is right now. We're being removed from public consciousness, the online purge is a modern day book burnings. We know what happens after that right? Now is high time all cis allies out there actually stand by our side as there might be no other chance if shit gets real in a bad way. Taking away trans rights kicks doors wide open for removing even more rights, minority rights in general are under serious threat. immigrants too, and all women, every single one of us.

What concerns me personally is that the tariff war might make it so that prices of iHerb stuffs will go sky high and that is effectively end of my NBE efforts. I'm stocking up like crazy not just on supplements but on HRT in what ever way I can. Some items I really absolutely like to have are sourced from USA only, there is no other source.

If things go really bad and something makes prices skyrocket, my NBE program will simplify a lot and I'm forced on rationing bunhc of things. HTR is largely uneffected as that's sourced elsewhere. Still making preparations for lasting for years without help is my plan. I'm on the other side of the planet, but I started this preparation already years ago as I saw this coming, writing has been on the wall for a long time.

Trans people knew, warnings have been sounded for about ten years. No one listened.

My home in the USA happens to be in South Orange County with most of my work in Laguna Beach. This town is well known for Gay Bars, Art Galleries and the one Hospital in Orange County that does the most transitioning top and bottom surgeries. Many of the folks I met in the DBSA (Depression Bipolar Support Association) support groups at the hospital are like me artists transitioning to their best selves. I seem to be one of the more successful nonbinary members and they always ask me how to get into festivals, galleries and how to publish your works. Getting meds and supplements has been difficult sometimes. I get them by mail but I have gone to Tijuana Baja California Mexico for meds and supplements possibly surgery.
