Huge LEGO steampunk wheel keeps the ship rollin’ 

This LEGO steampunk galleon by Chris Wright fits the genre perfectly — a huge steam-powered mega-wheel with a central ship that seems to defy gravity.

Using 7500 bricks and standing at nearly a meter high (including the crows nest), the outer wheel is also 10 studs wide. This girth gives enough stability to allow the wheel to not only be free-standing, but roll! Thankfully Chris has a video of his wheely awesome Steampunk ship in action, without this we would be saying – prove it or it didn’t happen.

I’m actually crying right now. Something that seemed impossible for me might actually happen in the future. I just hope this isn’t repealed by the time I feel comfortable enough in my life to transition. I know this doesn’t seem important to most people but this just gave me another reason to keep moving forward with my life. 🙏

I HOPE THIS IS A THING FOR MY AMERICAN FRIENDS AHH!!!

this could very well prevent some people from committing suicide

one of the largest issues is that reassignment surgery is ridiculously expensive and since many transgender people are faced w the fact they may never be who they know they are it is a fast downward spiral toward worse depression and ultimately self harm or suicide

reassignment surgery should absolutely be covered by insurance – it’s bullshit how large insurance companies claim it as “cosmetic”
