No really, I am s h o c k e d

So now we are seeing the American branch of then anti-trans movement go from "we just have concerns about women's sport" to firing all LGBT people in government in a matter of weeks, like we all knew they would, are British centrists going to wake up?

if you're a democratic senator and you're still voting to confirm trump nominees despite him allowing elon musk to gleefully dismantle the government then your brain has fallen out of your ass.

So the FBI could surveil & then assassinate a 21 year old Civil Rights leader in 1969, but is powerless to take any steps to stop--checks notes--a 19 year old who goes by the name Big Balls from defunding and defrauding a $6 Trillion economy? Do I have that right?

Woke up to this news. At a minimum, the government is defining trans people as dishonorable liars.

And nothing yet suggests we should expect the minimum from this admin. The use of "dishonorable" in a military context suggests the US may attempt to dishonorably discharge trans troops.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

Trump’s cabinet is what DEI looks like when the protected minority = sociopaths.

California's inmate firefighter crews are dwindling just as the state starts to burn The inmate workforce performs critical fuel-reduction projects year-round and are at times in the path of fires.

Trying to wrap my head around the fact that there are incarcerated people risking their lives to defend the homes of other people who believe prison sentences are not long enough.

Here are the democrats who voted to no longer cover gender affirming care for military kids.

SHAME ON EACH OF YOU

CNN Trump teases US expansion The president-elect has suggested a territorial extension into Panama, Greenland and Canada. If he's serious, it would rival the Louisiana Purchase.

Hitler teases German expansion

The chancellor-elect has suggested a territorial extension into Austria, the Sudetenland and Poland. If he's serious, it would rival the Treaty of Utrecht.

they’ve been prescribing puberty blockers to trans kids since 1988.

hillary cass couldn’t find a single example of them causing harm.

NOT ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE IN 36 YEARS

ICYMI: We directed $11 million to support food shelves and fight housing insecurity.

All Minnesotans deserve a warm home and full table this holiday season.

If what Brianna Boston said is a legitimate threat that warrants charges and $100k bond, every man who tweeted "your body, my choice" needs to be in prison.

I had your server but never friended you on discord

I’m glad
I don’t remember that we’ve ever chatted on discord, twitch, twitter, and aye email? But my memory may be failing me ( I caught up again, 54….. yeesh)

((((Hugs)))) long time no hiya hiya. I am very glad/happy/overjoyed to hear that you survived and are recovering !!!!!

jk rowling funded a case going before the supreme court that argues it should be legal to discriminate against and persecute trans ppl.

yet still we have to listen to ‘centrists’ claiming she isn’t bigoted she just has ‘a difference of opinion’.

no trans ppl have a voice in these proceedings.

UBI saves a ton of public money, but its lack of cruelty sends certain people into a rage, so it’s hard to put into practice.

I could never be a doctor because I simply would say thoughts and prayers sorry

if you are considering paying any right wing figure cash money for a cameo to own teh fash, use a search engine for “local food bank” or fucking scroll through the feed and find someone from gaza or a trans person who has been evicted or literally anything other than “give matt gaetz money.”

Just a reminder if you’re on benefits:

- You are not a burden.
- You matter and give as much as anyone else.
- Political rhetoric is designed to make us feel that needing benefits is shameful—but it’s not.

We all need support at times. You are valued, respected, and wanted.💜

If you are a trans person in Illinois arrested, harassed, or discriminated against for using a public bathroom, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com.

Solomon Grundy hates swamp!!!!!

Politico is reporting Trump will name Dr. Ladapo of Florida to a senior spot, likely Surgeon General or Assistant HHS.

This would be a horrifying pick for trans people. He's responsible for Florida's adult trans ban, and works with SEGM/Anti-trans global movement.

He's also an ardent anti-vaxxer.
