Just look at the Drew Adams case. It’s how anti-trans governments win, and they now have all the power and the courts on their side. I hate to be negative, but our chances to win died in November.

I’m a trans civil rights lawyer, and I would gladly take those cases on principle. HOWEVER, they are unlikely to ultimately prevail in this environment. If they win in a lower court, the government will appeal and if they don’t like the result, they will go to SCOTUS, where the government will win.

No matter how many times we trans people told you it was going to get, you told us we were overreacting. Family, friends, even rabbis took part in gaslighting me. The Far Left and Far Right join together in cruelly mocking our situation.

Even now, as the very concept of the β€œLand of the Free” crumbles down around us, we get more gaslighting. The courts will not protect us; they are speedbumps, not roadblocks.

I really don’t want to hear that you’re going to β€œfight” this administration, because you couldn’t even be bothered to get off your asses to vote in November.

But I’ve been planning for this for 2 years. I’m fairly privileged when it comes to trans people. I have a lot more money and options than most. Most trans people don’t have that luxury. Often they are marginalized, disabled, living paycheck to paycheck, etc. 

When it comes time to put them on a plane or smuggle them across a border, will you help? Will you feed them when they show up begging for help?

You betrayed us.

You failed us.

Be prepared to do something about it.

A screenshot of the Die Zeit website. It is a photo of Musk in black and white doing the Hitler β€œseig heil” salute - but the actual salute is blocked out by blue material on the left hand side of the photo. The headline is underneath.

A paper that understands its responsibility, in a country that knows it when it sees it.

Impressive from Die Zeit. Refuses to show the salute, but calls it out for what it so obviously was.

Headline: β€œA Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute”

I’m thinking of removing myself from all Meta on Monday, and just staying here exclusively. I have more followers here, but more engagement everywhere else. I’m still debating it. Maybe less β€œengagement” would be better for my health, honestly. πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

What TF is happening to my #FCHeidenheim jersey? The PVC logo and embroidery are fine, but the white letters are peeling off. I’ve never had a jersey self-destruct before.

Also, f@&$ that ref; that goal was NOT offsides.

Well, #FCBayern demolished Hoffenheim, & ESPN+ didn’t even bother to record the #FCHeidenheim match, which ticked me off. At least it was a tie, and enough to save us from relegation for now. Now I’m on to the Arsenal v. #Tottenham match. They’ve delayed the recording of the Man. United match (cont)

Heidenheim, Bayern, Tottenham, AND Manchester United all playing matches at the same time, and all while I have to be out doing work stuff? Luckily, they all will be available later today, but I’ve turn off the futbol notifications on my apps, and will NOT be looking at SM until I am caught up! 🀣

I’m not happy about it, but it’s the truth. It’s time to think about surviving, fleeing, whatever you have to do to survive and stay safe. Good luck. I’m getting TF out of here.

I am sad that so many people in the US are talking about midterms, & the law, and courts…and expecting that the Trump administration can be stopped or slowed down by these remedies.

I’m sorry, but the time for that kind of thinking is over. The rule of law is essentially over. It died in November.

I had a lot of the same criticisms. I watched it in Dolby Cinema, and sometimes when the characters moved, the frame rate made it remind me of when you’d make an animation by flipping the corner of your notepad as a kid. 🫀
