This works well. Mix one boxed cake mix and one can of soda…any kind of either and bake at 350˚ for 18-24 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. That is it. Don’t add egg, oil, water or milk…just cake mix and soda. So easy! I did chocolate with diet coke a few weeks ago and it was yummy. I also did a white cake mix with sprite and it was good as well. I can’t wait to try some more combos!

Yo. Don’t fucks with me. I don’t even drink soda, however I love simplicity. *googles to investigate further*

Doing this soon.

I do this when I’m making lazy vegan cupcakes/cake! I heard not to use diet sodas though because it gives it a weird aftertaste. Also I do dark sodas like Pepsi or Coke for dark cakes like chocolate and light neutral ones like Sprite for vanilla or yellow cakes. You also can do just a can of pumpkin mixed with the Spice Cake mix to make pumpkin spice muffins! Which fucking rocks.

genderedintelligence:

In conjunction with the LGBT Consortium, Gendered Intelligence has produced a ‘A guide for parents and family members of trans people in the UK’. We hope that this might offer parents and family members some information about what it means to be trans, how it might feel as a parent or family member of a young trans person, and perhaps most importantly, a bit of advice on how to move forward after a young person has shared their trans identity with their family.

This booklet was compiled through a series of focus groups with parents and family members of young trans people.

It is available online here, or you can order hard copies on our website.

Gendered Intelligence also runs ‘SOFFA’ youth group sessions every quarter, which are for significant others, family, friends and allies to come along with trans young people, meet other families of trans people and gain support. More details of our next SOFFA session will be posted soon on our tumblr.

@IAmDrTiller:

Three years ago today, Dr. Tiller was murdered in his church by an anti-choice fanatic. ‪#DrTiller‬ provided abortions for 30+ years.

Abortion Gang is having a collective blog remembrance. Will you be blogging about Tiller or the need for access to late-term abortions or the principles for which he fought and, ultimately, died? Let Abortion Gang know.

Here is Feministing’s post from the day that Tiller was murdered.

Update: 11 year old trans girl lost appeal

Update: 11 year old trans girl lost appeal:

transawareness:

The above article is an update. Her mother went to appeal to keep her out of the psychiatric ward and lost. She will be institutionalized because of her expression of her gender. She will be held until she conforms to male gender and then released to foster care, not her mother who was supporting her.

Please, if you haven’t signed the petition, sign it, reblog it, ask your friends to sign it. We’ve managed to get 40K signatures for a pageant model, we’ve only gotten 11K for a little girl about to have her life ruined. Lets get on the ball and spread the word.

Sign It.

Thu, 24 May 2012 21:11:06 -0400

“And so for me, the whole point of the gender movement is that it’s not only about those familiar specimens inevitabley correlated in the bianary zoo: the stone butches, drag kings and queens, lipsticks and deisel dykes, radical faeries and nelly fags, the transexuals, transgendered, crossdressers, and intersexed. It’s also about the 17 year old who ruins her health with anorexia because real women are suposed to be unnaturally thin, It’s about the aging lesbian who suffers a full hysterectomy because certain kinds of gendered bodies don’t matter. And it’s about the shy artistic little straight boy who is taunted and assualted each day because he is percieved as genderqueer, gender different, or simply gender vulnerable.”

“We let Willow cut her hair. When you have a little girl, it’s like how can you teach her that you’re in control of her body? If I teach her that I’m in charge of whether or not she can touch her hair, she’s going to replace me with some other man when she goes out in the world. She can’t cut my hair but that’s her hair. She has got to have command of her body. So when she goes out into the world, she’s going out with a command that it is hers. She is used to making those decisions herself. We try to keep giving them those decisions until they can hold the full weight of their lives.””

- (On why he let Willow cut all of her hair off)

- He raises a really great point. What would it mean to believe very early that my body was mine. That it’s not for anyone or for any particular purpose other than to be mine until I decide otherwise.

(via larepublicadedet)

I was damned near 30 before I could believe my body belonged to me & me alone. Dear people who take an issue with this,

Let the Smiths do right by their babies & shut the fuck up about how you think they should parent.

Okay, so i decided as of the new year 2012, i want to seriously start saving for chest surgery/transition. Now, i can’t sing. Or dance. I can’t run (well not without getting a stitch and having to stop every 2 mins lol) But i can draw. I can draw pretty much anything, ranges from animals, to people, to characters, etc. I’m thinking £15 per A4 drawing, £20/25 per A3 drawing. Black and white is my specialty, but can also do colour pencil, and painting.

Here’s a couple of examples of my work:

I’m not trying to show off or anything, I’m just trying my hardest to reach a life goal i desperately need.

I’m doing this again all summer!! I can do advance stuff for Christmas/Halloween, ideal personal gifts for Birthdays etc.Inbox me here for more info or requests. I will ship worldwide.

abbeymonster:

This dress was inspired by the student in my sociology class who thought that all feminists were hairy and butch. I just want to make sure that everyone knows that a feminist can wear whatever the fuck she or he (or both or neither) feels like wearing. My sociology professor loved the dress and she gave me extra credit! I used a potato stamp to make the print, I used a vintage pattern to make the dress, and I embroidered the phrase “This is what a feminist looks like” on the bodice.
