Hal Schrieve - buy my novel Fawn’s Blood 🩸 out now

I think trans women absolutely face pressure to make themselves small and accept cruel treatment + accept suspicion and malevolence. And i appreciate that youre generous enough to see an echo of your own experience in d’s. Im personally sus of d’s coming out the gate like a salesperson for detrans

i think that theres less utility in someone deciding to hold an identity personally that is affiliated with less social power than in cultivating a politics of solidarity where their energy is invested in redistributing social power .

i think is an impulse of wanting their gender to come with a moral blessing and reflect their goodness. I think it is
rhetorically of a piece w their arguments about t— i dont think its meaningfully distinct from people saying trans men were betraying feminism in the 90s

www.instagram.com/p/DRLCuJ2Ej4... theres a curious line being trod here and i dont think the gesture to “feminist trans men” rlly helps change the tenor of the whole substack post which is abt how t was Hurting d’s body and making d Aggressive and making d have Male Orgasms

tale as old as blogging but some bloggers do not know when thoughts are ones you share w the class . seeing the author of unmasking autism say that taking testosterone = being inherently in a position of More Malevolence Toward Women and thats why theyre going off it is wack. Just say u dont like it

really worth watching the video documentary by @floodlightnews.org's Evan Simon

I'm going to start calling these Alito raids since he's all about religious freedom when it comes to bashing LGBTQ people but not when it's armed gestapo bashing in the doors of churches on Christmas.

The organization offers Palestinians the option to pay about $2,000 for a spot on charter flights to destinations such as Indonesia and South Africa. Its website claims it was founded in Germany and has offices in East Jerusalem, though Haaretz found it is registered in neither place. Haaretz also learned that Israel's Voluntary Emigration Bureau in the Defense Ministry referred the firm to the IDF to help coordinate the departures

Sure seems like this should be a bigger story than it is.

Hundreds of Palestinians found themselves in South Africa. "Al-Majd", the org that flew them, pretends to be dedicated to helping Muslims when in fact it is a shadowy firm run by an Israeli named Tomer Janar Lind

Politico report MP anger at the Sun report. It may have been "overbriefed".

There is a question about what the policy is on assets and costs: would they audit jewellery? Might they take it?

There are other questions about language, control of media comms and politics & ethics on this issue

The Sun has been told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will on Monday propose confiscating jewellery, watches, necklaces from asylum seekers to meet asylum costs

This reflects the most controversial aspect of the Danish scheme - the Jewellery Law. The toughest Labour MPs thought this was OTT

mamdani is a no go, but marjorie taylor greene the transphobic, racist, homophobic antisemite bigot - they have room for her, they got room for nazi tattoo guy. no room for you though.

A board meeting in Broadview, Illinois, was abruptly terminated after protesters clashed with Mayor Katrina Thompson regarding her management of daily demonstrations at a local ICE facility. Residents are growing increasingly frustrated with the suppression of free speech.

broadview mayor katrina thompson blames today’s brutality on “out-of-town protesters” who’ve “chosen their fists” over their voices.

does this look like cops “protecting [protesters’] free speech”?

No matter what you do, the powers that be will always say the protesters were violent, and will always say the protesters were outside agitators who are not part of the community.

How many times did the NYT write about Claudine Gay?

When it came time to attack a Black woman, they couldn’t stop themselves.

“One of the things that really gives me joy is the fact that there are so many amazing, brilliant, creative disabled people out there. But part of my rage — and it’s a very real rage — is that most people don’t really know about them.”

Heavy rainfall floods the camps of displaced Palestinians in Gaza | CNN Displaced Palestinians in Gaza woke up Friday morning to inches of water flooding their tents, after heavy rainfall overnight left their shelters and belongings soaked with no way to dry them out.

I usually share a new Palestinian account every day but today I am going to do a thread of people I’ve already verified impacted by the recent flooding in Gaza. If you can help any of these families- many who lost everything again- please do. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/m...
