all of this started with a total of ten trans people and allies in my living room about ten days after the election.
you can do a lot when you are scared to death.
we canβt stop them but we can hold them back a whole lot in our county.

out of the SP the county is working with providers and our communities to help secure our GAC.
a spinoff of our group provides de-escalation services to events for vulnerable groups and some hope of delaying ICE if they arrive.
And we witness and support the people going to their check-in meetings

since the election our little trans group has gotten the county to create a Sanctuary Promise protecting trans people and immigrants, got them to make the new sheriff adhere to that Promise, have focused attention on FLOCK cameras, joined other local progressive groups to create a larger movement

i followed Watergate with a passion. Borkβs legal opinions were not mine but he was in an impossible position and they knew someone had to do it. Bork was the straw man for our frustration.
however, we should have charged Nixon.

he said it should be up to individual organizations. do you want your rights individually decided by whatever group? do you want your kids to have to go through scrutiny and ugliness just to play a game?
which of your rights do you want decided by one group after another?

why would i box a non-male? i am male. i have the muscles and the oxygen availability of a male. it would be unfair for me to compete against women.
trans girls have the bodies and physicality of any other girl. to put them against males is unfair to them and an advantage to males.do your research

it starts when you decide that trans girls are dangerous to cis girls. like saying they shouldnβt play sports. thatβs where it starts, Pete. when you treat them differently.

until this moment i had not realized that Tom was more than just the man we blame for fascism. Now we can blame him for fanatical religiosity, also.
