My friend (trans woman) and I (transmasc) are both from a very small rural town in South Texas, and we’re starting to seriously think about moving somewhere else in the US.

We’re trying to get a better sense of where we could realistically live that feels safer and more supportive as trans people. Right now, we feel pretty limited where we are, and we’re just trying to explore other options before making any big decisions.

We're both musicians and I'm looking to escape my upbringing and possibly find a place where I can preform music / start a music career.

We’re open to pretty much anywhere in the US (including bigger cities or smaller towns if they’re known to be supportive). We’d really appreciate hearing real experiences instead of just Google lists.

If you’ve lived in or know about states that are better or worse for trans folks, we’d love to hear from you. Thanks!🖤

My Discord account was hacked. I lost email access, support refused—any way to recover?

Hi, I’m in a really stressful situation and I’m hoping someone here might have advice.

My Discord account was recently compromised. I was suddenly logged out of all devices, and a scam message was sent from my account to my DMs (which I did not send). After that, I lost access completely.

When I try to log in, Discord tells me I need to reset my password through my email. The problem is the email on the account (a Tutanota email) was deleted due to inactivity, so I cannot access it anymore and cannot receive reset emails.

I also had a phone number linked to the account, but Discord does not give me the option to recover via SMS.

I contacted Discord Support and explained everything, but they told me they cannot help unless I contact them from the original email—which I no longer have access to.

Important details:

• I know the original email address used on the account
• I had Discord Nitro linked through PayPal
• The account was clearly compromised (scam messages sent)
• I am completely locked out and cannot log in anywhere

This account contained extremely important personal data for me, so I’m trying everything I can before giving up.

Is there any legitimate way to recover an account in this situation without access to the original email? Has anyone successfully gotten around this, or had support make an exception?

Any advice would mean a lot right now. Thank you.
