Californians, y’all better get ahold of your governor. He’s poised to pivot, and it ain’t about a couch.

Monday’s order called my community dishonorable, vainglorious deceivers and laid the groundwork for firing 15,000 of us. Then yesterday’s order put the health and wellbeing of my community’s youth at risk. What fresh hellfire will the Orange Antichrist unleash upon my people today? #firsttheycamefor

The executive order is worded so stupidly, defining gender, at least in part, as determined by the gametes one is capable of producing at conception! No one can produce gametes AT CONCEPTION! The US may only recognize two genders now, but legally, ALL AMERICANS ARE AGENDER NOW. #cantmakethisshitup

NEW: Platformer has obtained the dehumanizing new guidelines moderating what people can now say about trans people on Facebook and Instagram. Employees tell me these changes are likely to inspire more violence against LGBT people: www.platformer.news/meta-new-tra...

This policy change makes sense when you remember that Project 2025 architect, Dustin Carmack, is in charge of policy at Meta. When I uncovered this, he deactivated his LinkedIn.

Project 2025 wants to classify trans people as pornographic and ban us from public.

I Am Afraid of the American Flag We live in the shadow of flags meant to forever hide us, to remind us we don’t belong.

"The ubiquity of the star-spangled banner keeps me on edge. Flags on trucks. Flags on hats. Flags on shirts. It’s not the goods of national allegiance that concern me, but the nationalism of those who clothe themselves in the flag."

She passed away in the fall of 2020, so how old did that make her? I could never remember her age! She was so sweet, though! The absolute best and most lovable ❀️ Here’s the last picture I ever took of her, a few days before her stroke.

120 Anti-Trans Bills Filed Across The United States Before 2025 Has Even Started The number surpasses the number of bills filed in advance of 2024, a historically hostile year towards trans individuals.

1. Ahead of 2025, nearly 120 anti-trans bills have been filed across the United States, far surpassing the 80 bills filed by this time in 2023.

The bills target the ability of trans people to move, live, and exist freely as themselves in public.

Elected officials are openly referring to us with slurs. Got your passports, #transfam? Prep in advance to flee if necessary. Get that new credit card and keep the balance at zero. Maybe even pack a go bag, because jackboots issue little warning.

My guess is that a lot of trans people will be feeling a ton of stress and worry over SCOTUS today.

If you are a cis person, quote this and say why you support trans people and what you are willing to do to support us if the government comes for us.

It's just pure hatred. Meanwhile, Dems are acting like this is about sports. More than 15k active duty troops could be immediately discharged. They could immediately lose all veterans and GI benefits depending on how they're discharged.

Elon Musk’s Stealth War Against the Poor The world’s richest man is poised to go after the country’s most impoverished citizens under the false pretense of cracking down on fraud.

If Trump and Musk follow through on the half-baked idea to go after improper payments, we know who will actually suffer, and it won’t be the billionaires.
