if you’re cis and you don’t get it this is LITERAL TORTURE

it will result in dead trans people

and with their other goal of making us “sexually explicit” for existing

you see the pipeline right?

we exist -> we’re jailed for it -> we’re tortured and die

WE NEED YOU TO STOP THIS

i’m not kidding when i tell you this is my least favorite day of the year and all of the sun people can shove it or pay for me to move to the arctic if you wanna ruin my few joyful months of darkness.

No but this is entirely correct

it's all very weird, right?

not good

i think we need to be very clear that forcing trans people to use documents with the wrong marker is a form of sexual humiliation, it’s sexual harassment from the state itself

Of course isn’t just driving. It’s voting. Working. Travelling. Picking up a package. Applying for credit. Applying for a job. Renting a room. Filling prescriptions. Visiting loved ones in the hospital. Not expired either, but legally invalid.

Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.

it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying “this doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to “trans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.

I really hate anti-trans politicians, and I especially hate it because it was a culture war issue where we were clearly winning and then a bunch of nominally liberal people at the Times and the Atlantic decided to reverse that and they did.

Let me say this: There's a fairly high chance that a court will take a look at this and stay the law and you will forget about the fact that the Kansas Legislature tried to criminalize nearly every trans person in the state.

That will be a mistake.

It is very hard not to have a safe choice to use the bathroom in public.

It may be impossible to continue living, working, eating, etc without a valid driver's license if your life was built around driving and the assumption that your license wouldn't be invalidated overnight by the legislature.

we finally reached the end of this calendar event i accidentally made 12 years ago

@impossiblephd.bsky.social might have receipts.

I’ve heard various forms of queerness seems to run in families, but I don’t know how much is acceptance vs. genetics, and I don’t have references.

(Scientist brain is telling me I should stop posting, then.)

Everything about the Calderon fight in MIO slaps.

People in sci-fi novels are always naming their exploratory vessels shit like ICARUS and IXION and while I am not superstitious, I would maybe go with the USS GOT-THERE-SAFELY.

Intra-asian rice tension, of course, is when someone delivers an entire truck full of rice sacks you didnt think you ordered

DoJ cases against protesters keep collapsing as officers’ lies are exposed in court String of embarrassing defeats for prosecutors as experts condemn DoJ effort to cast people as ‘violent perpetrators’

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending *** As of the end of January, there have been no convictions."

Screen shot from Paul Embery’s X account: Respect to this police officer. Confronted by radicals demanding the arrest of a Christian preacher on the grounds that Whitechapel "is a Muslim area" she was calm and professional and gave them short shrift. Let's see more of this from the police. Has a video of a woman police officer talking to a group of Muslim men

This clip is all over the other place and has made its way onto GB News and Talk TV so I’ll do a bit of an explainer here too!

The clip doing the rounds is of a fantastic police officer telling a group of Muslim men that a Christian preacher nearby is entitled to freedom of expression.

Lies, Damned Lies, and Transgender Statistics plus over a dozen studies contradicting the “social contagion/rapid onset gender dysphoria” hypothesis

...now, 10 years later, there are over a dozen studies contradicting the “social contagion/rapid onset gender dysphoria” hypothesis – I link to all of them in this recent essay (no paywall):

Trying not to be angry but...

The growing number of concentration camps across this country, in which FORTY PEOPLE that we know of have died, elicit a fraction of the outrage that the murder of white protesters did

Watching you all underreact has helped me realize how my family was allowed to die

TIL that in the UK there’s a “Mexican” food chain founded by a white British lady named Thomasina. I’d like you all to guess what the name of said chain is. Do not spoil it if you know.
