Put in for my refill for my med on April 13th. Immediately got an automatic email and text saying it's out of stock. Typical for this med. I even put in for my refill several days before I ran out as the pharmacy and my provider instruct me to, every time I need this med filled. Luckily I have enough stocked up to hold me over until my prescription is finally filled.

I never got an update on it. Decided to check today (4/29) to see if it was ever filled.

My kaiser app is showing the order was cancelled instead. I resend my refill order. Immediately get hit with an "out of stock" message again.

So I call Kaiser pharmacy, and get routed to their customer call center instead.

I explain the situation. The lady looks at my pharmacy history, sees the original order from the 13th, and saw that it was cancelled due to there being an issue with my doctor's prescription wording. I was given a prescription for a 60 day supply, but my vials only last 28 days after first opening, so my doctor should have written my prescription for 56 days instead.

She also sees that my med is still out of stock and hasn't been ordered yet.

I ask if the pharmacy reached out to my provider. She says she doesn't know because she can't see if they did. I then ask why I was never called or notified about the issue. She doesn't know that either. I ask why the med wasn't ordered even though I put my order in over two weeks ago. She doesn't know that either. Then she tries to get ahold of the pharmacy three times, but they don't answer.

She escalated the situation to her supervisor to have her supervisor contact the pharmacy on my behalf, but I haven't been given any answers or assurances beyond "well, you should hear from them by tomorrow hopefully."

This happens EVERY SINGLE TIME I NEED MY MED FILLED.

I have been on this med for TEN FUCKING YEARS. I am so, so, so exhausted, and absolutely dread getting my prescription filled because this literally has happened every single time for the past ten years. It always becomes a weeks-long ordeal where I have to call and bitch people out and ask them to do their jobs and file grievances and hope that I get my med before I run out- but never do. I once was left without my med for THREE MONTHS because the pharmacy just kept stringing me along.

Is there literally anything else I can possibly do? I've called, I've gone in person to see what was the matter, my doctor has called the pharmacy to see what's going on, I've filed multiple grievances, I always call in my prescription early to give them time to order it, yet this continually happens EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

This is one from my work’s stock of binders. Nobody wants to take it because of the print and prefer our solid color ones instead, so this one’s been sitting in our Queer Closet for literally three years now.

I figured someone here might want it.

It’s a Gc2b 2xl full length binder, in the pink, white, and blue striped print.

It was donated to us about 3 years ago, so quality, fit, and sizing may not be up to adequate standards considering Gc2b’s history post-2020. Wear it at your own risk.

As usual, first come first served. I’ll cover shipping up to $10. US only.

Was just spring cleaning and found these in the back of my closet. Neither were worn much because they either didn’t fit me or just didnt perform the way I wanted them to.

Available free to anyone in the US. I’ll cover shipping up to $12. If it costs more all I ask is you cover the difference. First come first served.

Tomboyx binder, size medium: fits more like a sports bra tbh but it’s comfy.

Gc2b half binder, size medium: I don’t know what year this one was made, so I don’t know if it’s going to fall apart or fit improperly.

I recommend checking the tomboyx and gc2b websites to look at their sizing before claiming one of these. They’re both mediums but I would not say they’re the same size.

Howdy folks!

I work at a small lgbt center, and part of my job is to make very basic packers for our transmasc clients, which we provide at low cost as part of our Trans-Affirming Garment program.

Unfortunately today I made a bit of an oops, and tried to demold this one WAAAAY too early in the curing process. This resulted in some scuff-type marks along the front and sides of it. I also did a bit of a hackjob when trimming excess off the sides because someone ran off with my good scissors.

As a result, this packer is a little too janky to sell.

It’s still completely usable, super comfy, and body safe!

I made it with super soft platinum silicone, and the pigment is incorporated directly into the silicone so it doesn’t fade.

I keep mine clean by washing with soap and water, and occasionally tossing it in the dishwasher for a sterilization cycle. Because the silicone is so soft, you’ll need to powder it so it won’t be tacky.

All this being said: I don’t want to throw it away. It may be janky, but it’s still perfectly usable.

So, this packer is free to whoever wants it. I’m willing to ship it anywhere in the US. I’ll even cover shipping up to $12. If it’s more than that, all I ask is you venmo/cashapp/paypal me the difference.

First come first served.
