(3/3) I have never felt comfortable around him, but now that I have transitioned into a woman, I feel even more uncomfortable around him.

(2/3) whenever she goes outside; he's following me around with that thing too when I'm outside, even when I'm in my yard. He has this unnatural obsession with both of us, and I'm not liking it one bit. This is the same type of behavior that these predatory creeps have.

(1/3) I don't know what's with that piece of trash of a human being my mom is living with, but lately, it feels like he is showing creep and predatory behavior. Ever since he installed a security camera that can move around, he's not only constantly following my mom around with that damn thing

The Pride Radio Network's new logo is complete! For those who are curious, the artist I commissioned to make this logo is Shintaworld, you can find info about her at her webpage: shintaart.weebly.com #hamradio #amateurradio
Illustrated circular logo for Pride Radio Network. A diverse group of five people stand in an Australian outback landscape, each holding a handheld amateur radio. The central woman wears the intersex-inclusive Progress Pride flag as a cape. A radio tower stands in the distance beside a large red-rock formation under a blue sky. “Pride Radio Network” appears in bold white lettering across the bottom, with the yellow international amateur radio symbol below.

Thanks to everyone that responded; I have taken bits and pieces of ideas from some of you and I have submitted them along with my ideas to the artist. The new logo will be unveiled when it's ready.

I found an artist who will draw the logo for the Pride Radio Network, a global queer-owned & operated repeater system founded by myself & some Aussies, but I need some ideas to give to the artist. Who has ideas? Describe what you think might work as a logo for the network. #hamradio #amateurradio

I want to clarify something about this post: I have severe financial difficulties, I can't afford to pay anyone, so this will not be a paid commission. If I could pay, I would, but I'm very broke, so I'm unable to.

I'm looking for an artist who is familiar with ham radio who could draw up a logo for the Pride Radio Network and also another one for my QRZ profile picture. I want to ditch the AI-generated images and replace them with real artist content. #hamradio #amateurradio

Finally, a company that is standing up to that elongated muskrat and all those who share his same ideology! I joined the committee. I have an awesome idea to put forth and I look forward to doing so when its time.

(2/2) Sad thing is, I basically gave my original melodies away to these darn AI music generators when I created my music through AI, a stupid decision on my part when I uploaded my original recordings to AI to transform them. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #GenerativeAI

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
(1/2) I have decided to remove all AI-generated music from my channel. Not only does AI-generated music lack soul, emotion, and the human touch, AI music generators are also trained on stolen music without permission from original artists, whether it's copyrighted or not.

Nice! For now, I'm just licensed as a US and an Aussie station, but I'm not gonna stop at those two countries. France & Canada are on my radar and who knows where else I could try to get additional callsigns from.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 09/07/2026
(2/2) you can still get a second callsign from another country and some countries will let you obtain 2 or more callsigns for use within that country. I have two callsigns because I'm licensed in two countries.

(1/2) #hamradio #amateurradio Apparently, some clueless old men were confused about why I have two ham radio callsigns and they angrily insisted that I'm only allowed one. They are wrong, dead wrong. While it's true that in the US and in some other countries, they only issue one callsign, however,

What's with the increase in the cost of living here in the US? I see the costs of everything in the store has skyrocketed, like WTF? We can't even afford to buy food anymore, especially folks like me with limited fixed incomes. This is fucking ridiculous! Something needs to be done to ease the pain.

Hey y'all! I hate begging for money, but my grocery bill is almost $200. I'm on a limited fixed income & when I pay rent/utilities, I have little left. $200 is difficult to afford. Any help would be amazing. Paypal/Venmo: @KimberlyMcBlaze CashApp: $KimberlyMcBlaze #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest

Do any Aussie ham radio operators know of a remote-controlled station that any licensed VK ham can use? I'm still looking for one so I can make proper use of my VK callsign. All known ham radio clubs with remote HF stations ghosted me when I enquired about membership. #hamradio #amateurradio

These youngins don't know a thing about old school phones... When I mentioned something about owning a landline, one asked me, "Is it like an Android, iPhone, or a flip phone? Does it have a touchscreen?". They were absolutely flabbergasted when I showed them pictures of landline & office phones.

Just to clarify, this host is what I'm using to not only host my portion of the Pride Radio Network, but also my Sharkey (Mastodon-compatible) instance, among several other things. The Pride Radio Network is a #hamradio #amateurradio multi-mode internet connected repeater network.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 03/06/2026
I don't understand my hosting provider, #Hetzner... I was quoted just shy of $30 per month for my VPS and it was $30 for one month, now I'm paying just over $50 per month, what's with the $20 price increase? I can't sustain this for long due to low income.

Brandmeister & their policies are openly hostile against the spirit of ham radio. The people who run that network are a bunch of jerks. Many of them are also incredibly toxic & also homophobic/transphobic. For my concern, they all can go fuck themselves. #brandmeister #dmr #hamradio #amateurradio

(8/8) pain and anguish throughout the years and even during his final years, he continued to be that source with his constant belittling, yelling, etc. It's one less person to stress about.

(7/8) and to spend his final years making a real effort to make amends with me, but unfortunately, he passed away before he could do any of that. On the other hand, I'm sorry to say this, but I'm glad he's gone. He was a real thorn up my behind and he had been one of the biggest sources of mental

(6/8) On one hand, I was hoping he would live longer so that he would eventually come around and actually be that father figure I was desperately missing and needing in my life, that he would accept me for who I am and treat me like his daughter,

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 11/05/2026
(5/8) He rejected me as his daughter. Ironically, he was desperately wanting a daughter just before I was born, but I was assigned male at birth instead. In a way, his wish for a daughter was fulfilled, but not in the way he expected. His rejection hurts me a lot.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 11/05/2026
(4/8) Fast forward some years, many years, and things take a turn for the worse with him when I came out as being transgender. He became one of the most hostile, bitter, spiteful people out there. He let it be known that he was not at all on board with my transition.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 11/05/2026
(3/8) the damage was already done. To be honest, I don't know if I'll ever be able to fully forgive him. He caused me a lot of suffering throughout the years, and the suffering was only exacerbated by childhood bullies in school.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 11/05/2026
(2/8) such as teach them things, take them out for a day of fun, be there for their child, etc. My father did none of that with me. He was never a father to me. He was also a bad influence to me. Sure, at the end, he half-assed tried to make amends, but it was too late,

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 11/05/2026
(1/8) Growing up was rough, my piece of trash father was never a good father. He constantly abused me verbally and occasionally physically throughout my childhood. He never did any of the things that a father was supposed to do with their child,

(2/2) ...broadcast stations & more QSOs & nets. Because my US license is general class, I don't get access to the 7125-7175 portion of 40m, which is frustrating.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 05/05/2026
(1/2) so is 14313 & also 3800-4000. But I wanted to stay below 7200 on 40m so I could possibly get international contacts, since not all countries have ham allocations above 7200. Most of everything between 7175-7200 was wall-to-wall QSOs & nets & everything above 7200 was wall-to-wall shortwave...

Trolls tried to jam me while I was making HF contacts via a remote controlled station on 7.198 MHz. They were playing tones & audio sweeping noises. They also rebroadcasted my live-stream without permission on frequency. They also commented on how bad my call sign was. #hamradio #amateurradio

Sadly, there are no LGBTQ friendly therapists in my area. I live in a conservative area. Oh, yeah, and many of the therapists in the state I live in don't accept Medicaid, which is the insurance I'm on.

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 01/05/2026
Unfortunately, I don't have a therapist. The ones I have tried in the past haven't been helpful at all. Oh, yeah, and last time I mentioned taking her into therapy, she blew up in my face and made it sound like I'm insulting her or something.

(10/10) but transition alone isn't enough. Until I can move past my other issues, I don't think I can get better and right now, it seems very impossible to move past my issues...

Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 28/04/2026
(9/10) Why is a normal life so out of reach for me? Some idiots think that me transitioning into a woman is the source of my problems... no, it isn't. In fact, me transitioning from male to female actually took away a very huge source of my mental health problems,
121
Kimberly Chase @kimberlymcblaze.bsky.social · 28/04/2026
(8/10) The political nightmare together with the anti-transgender movement happening where I live now, also a huge source. Lots of other things are a source for my poor mental health. I'm struggling... so much so, I am overwhelmed. I just want a normal life!
