Naseem Jamnia (they/them) THE GLADE OUT NOW!

The Iranian diaspora across the world flying the Israeli flag have no morals. They're willing to side with a country that has commited genocide, killed thousands of women and children, caused famine, just to get their country "back".

There's as much blood on your hands as the previous regime.

Less than two days left!

I'd love to see it get to $15,000 by tomorrow. It would be a spark of hope in a terrible moment.

(please please scroll down & select "adjust donation." V important.)

Everything ICE says is a lie.

People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

I am going to link again to LGBTQ KS. While I do not know them myself, my friends vouch for them. LGBTQ KS are raising money to help fund the cost of replacement driver's licenses and birth certificates. They are coordinating rides to the DMV and connecting people with resources. lgbtqks.org

Medical Care in Wichita | M-Care Healthcare | Wichita Kansas M-Care Healthcare provides medical care in Wichita and the surrounding areas. In addition, we provide LGBTQ services, HRT, & more. Contact us!

My friends in Wichita recommended LGBTQ KS (already linked above) as well as M-Care Healthcare mcarehc.com

My anonymous friend says: "M-Care Healthcare is also a main hub for all things LGBTQIA+ in Wichita. They are always on the front lines, including going to the capitol to provide testimony."

Equality Kansas - this org has done a lot of good work in the state, especially at the legislature level. They have a fund to help trans Kansans with additional expenses after SB 244, rides, meals, etc. They have a mutual aid fund and will also put you in touch with people in need.

Right now, relocation assistance is only part of the equation. Equally if not more urgently needed are local rides, since people whose ids have been invalidated can't legally drive. Also, guess what, the DMV will charge you a full fee for reissuing your ID with the wrong/compliant markers

LGBTQKS - I do not know them personally but heard good things. They are a nonprofit, have a mutual aid fund and are taking assistance requests.

I am going to link to organizations that I know for sure are helping trans Kansans. This thread will develop slowly as I either know people or will vet them.

At this point we have not heard from anyone being helped via relocation resources. These exist, but I assume they are overwhelmed.

My guess is that Israel will also start bombing Iranian hospitals and universities, "in self-defense".

Gaza was a blueprint.

To recap:
Anthropic refused to do killbots or mass surveillance. DOD trying to destroy company.
Altman: we are now working with DOD, who totally respect safety and oppose mass surveillance!
Why would anyone trust a word Altman says after this?

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

before bluemaga wakes up, I need you all to understand that attacking Iran is a bipartisan project. it's not simply "trump is insane"

The only thing it feels worthwhile for me to say right now is pay attention to whether your feelings & the information you’re absorbing are paralyzing you or prompting you to meaningful action, whatever that is. Paralysis helps no one but the enemy.

no war no borders no cops no prisons no to all of this shit

I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.

From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.

We bombed Iran?! | I need to pay that bill | Kansas antitrans ID law!! | Don’t forget Hugo noms | do we still have Venezuela’s president? | *an email re: book promotion* | I can’t pay this bill | cutting funds to MN?? | I need to check on my friends | timeline fights about doomerism | taxes | REPEAT

Hex all imperialists.

That argument exists because the lives of non-white people are cheap in imperial discourse. Mass death on the other side of the world has no reality outside of what space it takes up on the american tv news cycle. If it were otherwise, the old normal would have been as insupportable as the new

Forced sterilization of Black women used to be so common it had a nickname: the Mississippi appendectomy.

It happened to Fannie Lou Hamer. Black people have endured every imaginable evil in this country.

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

The international airport in Kuwait was damaged as a result of Iranian missile attack.

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

It’s not lost on me that this is happening during Ramadan and during fasting hrs.

came on here to post about how i'll be at impossible moon in hapeville at 4pm today. then i saw the news.

please drop by impossible moon to celebrate the opening of a Black woman-owned bookstore in the ATL area.

If another random fucking white guy doesn’t give his opinion on Iran ever again, it’ll be too soon

Trans+ Books Hi - I want to curate a couple of book bundles to give away during the TRR (trans rights readathon) and am looking for ideas in two specific categories for books to give away. Any and all ideas you ...

HELLO - all my friends who regularly read books by trans writers or with trans characters in them, can you please 🙏 consider filing this tiny 2 question form out?

forms.gle/piE3v5YbA8ZV...

I’m not sure they fit into either category but I’m happy to send you a couple copies of QILWA and/or THE GLADE if the bundles are to raise donations!
