i told my brother he could be disqualified from #mtg prerelease if he didn’t brush his teeth. is this true? no. should it be? YES.

"Hawkgirl dropped a fascist to his death in SUPERMAN" - me
"It's okay when James Gunn does it, it's not okay when a trans woman does it, that's what I'm hearing." - my boyfriend

Gretchen Felker-Martin Red Hood run was cancelled by DC after she expressed an opinion about the death of a man who wanted trans women like her wiped off the face of the Earth

Feeling the massive spirit of debate here!

This is ridiculous.

gonna read early 2000s core four just to feel something (they are already in the process of increasing my depression meds)

yellowjackets on the bus. we are all using public transport together. rest your wings baby a whole new world is out there. i’ll pull the bar for you

Being trans is great, but it would nicer during a time when my mere existence is not a form of protest

Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns, sources say | CNN Politics Senior Justice Department officials are weighing proposals to limit transgender people’s right to possess firearms, according to two officials familiar with the internal discussions.
