Such a great pic! Now seeing that Jean jacket has my curiosity peaked: are you rocking the full Canadian tuxedo? Ie: jeans and a jean jacket? Lol 😂😉

Hahaha literally laughed out loud

A white cis guy employed by Disney to make jokes about public figures and host PR event interviews, about as spicy as a white person taco, but usually harmless enough

Escaping into (physical) tabletop boardgames…sometimes it’s good for nerds to “touch cardboard” lol

The line “…I’m seeing all the beauty in the broken glass” tugs at my heart in all the right ways! ❤️

I really hope we’re able to get Ken sim out next van election cause goddammit I have seen more cops on transit in the last 3 years than in the previous 25 years!

Also Twice in the last month I’ve seen cops standing around kitted out with AR-style long guns.

This does not make me feel safe

This is my go-to suggestion too!

90% of my friend group immediately pre-transition were dykes, bi-women, & trans men. I was lovingly called a “lesbro” by them...

Then when I finally came out to them as a trans woman, 100% of them, to a person, shrugged and said “cool. Yeah that makes a lot of sense actually” lol 🤣

One of the on the media appearances…can’t remember if it was the one specifically about cancel culture with Brooke Gladstone or one of the summer 2021 ones guest hosted by brandy zadrozny …either way, thank you “on the media” I guess :)

So true!

Cities and states really need to start passing laws that payouts from lawsuits against police come out of their pension funds, rather than municipal & state money.

Shit would clear up real quick.

Shit is feeling pretty rough right now for trans folks…might be good to have on some journalists or scholars who are on the trans beat like @evanurquhart.bsky.social @imarajones.bsky.social @katelynburns.com @esqueer.net or @juliaserano.bsky.social

Yes! I really liked this portion of the discussion, so much so that I exclaimed out loud while walking my dog “exactly!” lol

Cause yeah wrt the rights of trans people, immigrants, and those who continue to speak out against genocide in Gaza things still feel pretty bleak

Going to the theme parks is supporting anti-trans legislation.
Buying the books is supporting anti-trans legislation.
Buying and playing the games is supporting anti-trans legislation.
Talking up the franchise in any guise is encouraging others to fund anti-trans legislation.

I swear on days like today I find myself perversely yearning for the halcyon days of 2021 when you would only read 1 negative story about us (trans ppl) lol

Cause Today i came across 4 (Gallego’s BS, the horrific Texas bill, the HHS threat to ignore WPATH, and now this politico piece).

Done ✅

Seriously! They should just give it all to you, @mattxiv.bsky.social & @michaelhobbes.bsky.social with the aim of making the world more gay.

That would be a waaaaay better use of the time & $$$

It’s amazing (and kinda sad) how relevant the “Gender trash from hell” zine still is 30 years later!!

Exactly! Also Sam Seder, the humanist report, lance of the serfs, Matt binder, emma Vigeland, Olayemi Olurin, Robert Evans + the entire behind the bastards cinematic universe. Soooo many good solid progressives in the content space

For all the US-folks that follow me. Please do this!

Sorry about you feel bad about failing your “purity test.”
But you know what feels worse?
Failing the “you’re not vermin that need to be exterminated” test, which is what is happening to undocumented ppl and trans ppl (among others) in a current fascist America.

It's hard to explain how, in the 80s and 90s in NI, pre internet, as a kid, unless you had a queer person in your immediate family, you just didn't even know queer was a thing.

And yet I'm still queer.

You can take away the words kids can use to describe themselves, but they will always be queer.

As @garnettillie.bsky.social & I have been saying for a while now:

It’s a death cult.

Watching MSNBC today I noticed that they had hired former MT senator John tester as a paid analyst…

My immediate thought was “wow off the top of my head I can count 3 old cis white Guys named John (tester, kaisic, heilman) and yet they still “don’t have the money” to pay any transgender analysts” 🤔

The fact that they are planning on spending 40-50 million dollars on this propaganda while also claiming that they have to cut cancer research or gender-affirming care to trans veterans for fiscal reasons shows just how rotten this whole regime is

Oh cool thanks! I’ve been out as a trans person since 2004 but pretty much oblivious to the fashion world (given that 90% of the time my wardrobe = tshirt + leggings lol) so I have been wondering where this came from for a while now

I would love to see coming generations of queer and trans kids not have to spend their adult lives working through the trauma of being queer and trans kids. I wanna sit in my rocking chair and marvel at their lives.

There’s a whole trans/gender-affirming care section of the book. + it concludes with Jordan Kermit-the-frog Peterson writing the final chapter. So yeah it’s gonna be suuuper gunning for trans folks *sigh*
