The passport page about changing your gender marker is now down.

I'm expecting trans people's passports to be a major battleground of this administration.

A world without trans people has never existed and never will. As always, trans rights are human rights and love will prevail.

"But Democrats had to pass the TikTok ban because Republicans made them by attaching it to other legislation"

Not in the House, but also...

The same people saying this are going to excuse when Dems vote for anti-trans bills in the budget over the next 4 years, like they already did with the NDAA.

A reminder that Trump, the luckiest man on earth, like in 2017, is inheriting a strong, growing economy with months & months of job growth & growing real wages (even though most Americans don’t know it!), & will almost certainly 1) take credit for it and 2) screw it all up again.

I hope everyone has a peaceful Dr. MLK Jr. Day! Also, while TikTok is "saved", it's future is still uncertain. Anyways, it's a big day tomorrow, but regardless of how things will go down, I'll always believe that love will prevail over prejudice & fear.

They should #deportElonMusk for overstaying his student visa. The wealth he's taken and squandered has created more trouble for this country than any migrant who's came here since 1995. In all seriousness, these Democ*rats* have fully capitulated to the MAGA sycophants and should all be primaried.

Donald Trump's inaugural fund is getting almost $150 million. Here are some of its donors Tech giants and Wall Street leaders are writing million-dollar checks despite past conflicts with the president-elect

Donors to Trump's inaugural fund:

- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman: $1M
- Amazon: $1M
- Meta: $1M
- Uber & its CEO Dara Khosrowshahi: $1M each
- Apple CEO Tim Cook: $1M

This is chump change to the tech oligarchs, but it sends a clear message that they will do Trump's bidding.

SCOTUS announces it will hear whether or not LGBTQ inclusive education is unconstitutional.

Not great for LGBTQ people, and could be disastrous to teaching that we have a history and have existed alongside everyone else for centuries.

So many amazing anecdotes about David Lynch. I will add something fluffy but possibly entertaining.
For a brief while, David Lynch was probably best known in the UK for his wonderfully him PlayStation ad, championed by the great @trevorbmbagency.bsky.social

Biden Administration Quietly Carves TikTok Ban Loophole for Itself, Leaked Document Shows TikTok ban for thee but not for me

It seems like TikTok is going to be banned on January 19. I'm sorry to anyone who uses this app, and shame on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for banning this app, especially since they used it extensively to rally support for their campaigns last year.

Judge blocks Biden administration's rule to expand overtime pay for millions A federal judge in Texas has blocked a new rule from the Biden administration that would have expanded access to overtime pay to millions more salaried workers across the U.S.

It looks like change is coming sooner than expected, but it's not the kind of change most people are expecting.

Remember the name, U.S. District Judge Sean Jordan; he just stole overtime pay for over four million Americans.

Today is City Carrier Appreciation Day!

Being a letter carrier is a career I've taken great pride in, and I couldn't give it up for any other job. I look forward to working at the USPS and with the NALC union for many more years to come.

I'm glad these bums are getting the backlash they deserve. Suozzi and Moulton seem no different from George Santos after throwing their trans constituents under the bus for political gain. This post by Jaybefaunt really says it all.
