If a company fails to protect your personal data, they should be held accountable. LB 241 makes that nearly impossible, shielding big corporations while leaving Nebraskans vulnerable to fraud. Our job is to protect people, not make it easier for corporations to get away with negligence. #NELeg

I know that's not where all trans people live though, so please folks prioritize your safety when you need to. But please remember, regardless of what the bastards say, we exist and are beautiful beings. (3)

And that's the point of these EOs - to scare us into complying to their worldview, and I'm not doing it. I have so much privilege in my life that I'm fine being out here doing the visible shit all day every day. (2)

Day 1 of peeing in public bathrooms under the second Trump administration and after an EO that erases trans people from federal definitions of sex and gender. I've been a very vocal and very out trans person for the last 18 years, and I was nervous in a way I haven't been in a long time. (1)

Attending a Public Health student's dissertation defense is always a nice way to end a busy week. This one focused on LGBTQ+ health within Nebraska and the needs of medical students to learn about LGBTQ+ health.

It's one of my favorite days in my LGBTQ Studies course - the day we watch The Celluloid Closet about queer themes in film/media before the 90's.

What's up BlueSky - I just joined with the mass exodus from X. LGBTQ+ identities and health care researcher from U of Nebraska at Omaha. I'll likely share memes, news stories, and academic content. Looking forward to learning and meeting new folks here.
