UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Morelle: Here’s the problem whenever the president speaks—and I hate to make light of this because he’s the president—but it’s almost always just fantasy.

This week he’s suddenly a scientist, telling us what we should do for a fever if you’re a pregnant woman.

It’s an endless series of baloney.

Ian Roberts, who grew up in Brooklyn, NY, and competed in the 2000 Sydney Olympics 800 meters for Guyana, has been arrested by ICE.

ICYMI: I wrote about how dire shit is getting for American trans people.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Well said, I stand corrected. My worry for her safety clouded my judgement but you are right.

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

I understand why Sarah did this. I feel she has been entirely too meek on trans rights, but in this situation there was no good option for her. Vote yes and you've sold out your community. Vote no and you have given the bigots even more ammo to pass legislation that will harm trans people.

Obama: So we have to extend to people during their period of mourning

We can also at the same time say I disagree with the idea that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a mistake


I can disagree with the suggestion that my wife or Justice Jackson does not have adequate brain processing power.

THE CUT They Want the Shooter to Be Trans By Lex McMenamin, a writer and editor at Teen Vogue.

“Anti-trans harassment and violence is all the rage. Trans people are afraid to leave the country, let alone leave their houses. The right-wing ecosystem has gladly spent years creating these conditions, while Democrats have by turns avoided saying anything about them at all” 😞

Skylight is a great alternative to TikTok and works well with Bluesky. Same for Flashes.

"The latest escalation tracks closely with similar steps taken by Vladimir Putin in Russia to target nonprofits and LGBTQ+ organizations and other left-leaning NGOs in recent years"

What I Think About Last Wednesday September 14, 2025 What happened last Wednesday was truly terrible. Have I said enough? Many friends and colleagues, people I both like and respect, have been telling me for days that they are look…

“None of the very bad things that are happening now surprise me…Not the details of course, but the general descent into authoritarianism…It is hard to avoid feeling like all of that serious and sincere writing was like whistling in the wind.”

Press Conference: No "Transgender" Or "LGBTQ" Symbols Found At Kirk's Shooting Yesterday, several media outlets claimed or strongly implied that "transgender symbols" were found at the scene of the gun used by Charlie Kirk's shooter. This turned out to be false.

The Mass Shooters Are Performing for One Another The goal of these attacks is to join a lineage of infamous killers.

In the days after last week's Minneapolis shooting, I've been continually haunted by the shooter's video and the nihilistic contagion that seems to spread in mass shooter fandom communities. I spoke to @alexbnewhouse.bsky.social about how to process this terrible phenomenon w/o helping perpetuate it

Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

a lot of rank and file dems do not seem to understand that trans people are in an existential battle for our right to be part of society right now. the government today is trying to use employment law and federal extortion to ban us from bathrooms.
