If youโ€™re a new follower, maybe check out my newest record? It is probably the best thing Iโ€™ve ever done, and definitely a result of the current moment in history.

If you're denying a transgender woman employment because you're afraid it might be seen as a political statement

a) our existence is not political
b) congrats, you're now part of the problem that perpetuates that myth

The BDS movement is calling for people to pressure Microsoft with divestment and exclusion from contracts, whenever feasible. We also call for boycotting Microsoftโ€™s gaming products, with the following options as tiers of engagement:

Cancel your Xbox Game Pass subscription.
Boycott Candy Crush, Minecraft and Call of Duty โ€“ flagship videogame franchises owned by Microsoft.
Boycott all Microsoft Gaming products, including Xbox-branded consoles, headsets, accessories and all games published by Microsoft-owned publishing labels (such as Xbox Game Studios, Activision, Bethesda and Blizzard).

And I've obviously been saying this a lot lately, but BDS does not expect anyone to drop everything made by Microsoft all at once. They pick very specific targets in order to get as wide a coalition as possible, and in the case of Xbox, even suggest different tiers of engagement.

Visa is now actively shutting down calls regarding their censorship and prohibition of the sale of legal product.

They clearly retrained their staff on how to deal with our calls. That doesn't happen unless there's critical mass.

KEEP IT UP. They are trying to turf the calls as fast as they can.

A lot of the moral panic around stranger danger resulted in this idea that your family and parents are always safe. And therefore that means you must be supervised by them at all times. Which can open the door to some insane levels of control and abuse if (as is commonly the case) family abuses you

The โ€œGender Binary Modelโ€ is, Without Exaggeration, White Supremacist Propaganda A primer on the history of the acceptance of the โ€œgender binary modelโ€, from a transgender scientist and scientific/gender/queer historian.

doctors and scientists, en masse, chose to "follow the law" to protect themselves and their bigotry

that they have the tools and resources to know full well is violent pseudoscience

and trans people, trans children, die because of it

and I do not forgive them

Any financial support whatsoever for Harry Potter or J.K. Rowling is funding the war chest for Rowling's legal fund, for which she is devoting the bulk of her fortune, over $1 billion. This fund is used EXCLUSIVELY to legally persecute transgender people and their allies.

"We had the cure for cancer, but we're scrapping that and instead will be encouraging people to go off their meds and drink unpasteurized milk."

I don't have a joke to go with that, it's just an accurate summary of our current health policy as a nation.

I might have to do an essay called โ€œThe Straight Washing of Spock,โ€ because people really donโ€™t seem to understand the history of Kirk/Spock or its importance to sci-fi fandom. Roddenberry deliberately refused to define their sexuality, and Joanna Russ even argued that not knowing was the pointโ€”that in a better future, it wouldnโ€™t matter. Making Spock explicitly straight in Strange New Worlds flattens all of that history.

Chicago hospitals are scaling back trans care for youth. A rapid response team is stepping in. The team has a network of practitioners in Illinois who donโ€™t rely on payments from the federal government, which threatens to cut funding to gender-affirming care providers.

This is some bullshit, if youโ€™re a constituent call the governor:

Chicago 313-814-2121

Springfield 217-782-6830

Might as well also call

i stg every kink can be subtextually boiled down to:
-i am powerful/in control
-i am seen as desirable
-i am safe and can now be vulnerable
-i can explore taboo in a safe + controlled environment

once you realize that you realize that no kink can hurt you
