AP The Associated Press @AP BREAKING: The Trump administration is pushing an initiative for millions of Americans to upload personal health data to new apps run by private tech companies. Gabrielle A. Perry, MPH @GeauxGabrielle Hi! Epidemiologist here! Don't do this. In the 80s and 90s this was done by Depts. of Health during the HIV/AIDS epidemic. "Somehow" the lists they created found their way into the hands of cops, landlords, & job sites to deny people human rights. It's partly WHY the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act exists

"Hey I read in [news outlet] that your company made Steam stop carrying adult-rated games. Are you taking them out of Playstation and Xbox too? What about R rated movies? Can we just. Not buy them any more? What's going on? Are Explicit albums banned too? Are you policing Spotify? WHY?!"

Sudan gripped by deadly crisis as hunger, disease and heat intensify The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) raised the alarm on Wednesday over the rising toll of hunger, disease and displacement in various conflict-ridden parts of Sudan.

Starvation is also being used as a weapon of war in Sudan. Famine and death is on the rise and largely absent from the media.

Me on a Stop the Clause (what would become Section 28, prohibiting the ‘promotion of homosexuality’ in law) in 1988.

Those of us who fought for gay rights in the 1980s and 90s were often told we were too loud, too angry or asking for too much by the gays who sat at home.
Now they’re the ones saying the same about the trans rights struggle.

I would tell the government and every shithead who agreed to spread this to go fuck themselves on an overgrown cactus.

For those at the Rhys show tonight, I will be about in my orange shirt :)

Elon Musk’s DOGE Burned Through $21.7 Billion of Taxpayer Cash A report added up all the costs associated with DOGE and found it wasted billions by paying employees not to work, cancelling projects and more.

How is this humanly possible in just a couple of months...

Pay it back, fElon.

Internal consistency :D

They have *the* best stuff :D

Trans rights graffiti art mausoleum will cost £2000 to clean - BBC

Or you could leave it

Or you could give us human rights and I'd volunteer to clean it off for free

Visa employees clearly told to deescalate ASAP
MasterCard employees more than familiar with the issue
Stripe feeling the pressure
ACLU put out a statement
CBC covered all this

What you are doing is WORKING
You are getting RESULTS
KEEP CALLING
KEEP WRITING
WE ARE GOING TO WIN!!

Can confirm this works, the rep was kept insisting "there was adult content," I kept repeating "but the statement form mastercard says 'illegal,' adult content is not illegal," and I got him to agree that yes, he has seen no evidence any illegal transactions happened.

🤣I can't say I am shocked by this development

Important UK Trans: Given the number of ppl escaping to the Republic of Ireland, our LGBTQ orgs have stepped up a gear to support people. The main LGBTQ charity is LGBT Ireland. If you call them, they can give you advice on moving to Ireland:

A photograph of the front of Wes Streeting's office in Ilford. there is pink paint on the window, reading CHILD KILLER, although a car is parked in front of it, and white paper on one side barely hiding a puncture in the glass. Wes' name is also covered in pink paint on the email at the bottom of the red banner-style sign

A different angle of Streeting's office, showing the CHILD KILLER text more visibly. Three punctures with spider-fractures are visible across the front of the office windows.

JUSTICE FOR TRANS YOUTH On July 31st, a group of activists representing BASH BACK took action against Wes Streeting's office in Ilford, in response to his continued abuse of trans people in the medical system, and attempts to cover up the suicides of trans young people under his watch as Health Secretary. In the months since the puberty blockers ban, we have seen huge backpedals in the healthcare rights afforded to trans people - and young people especially - in an NHS system that was never kind to us in the first place. Under Streeting's rule, GPs have been banned from conducting blood tests on trans patients accessing HRT, and trans people have been banned from accessing hospital wards that fit their gender, leading necessarily to poorer quality of care across the board. Streeting, along with NHS England, the EHRC, and Hillary Cass, have paved the way for state-mandated conversion therapy, which has since led to the Department of Education's proposed introduction of a "Section 28" style bill, preventing discussion of transness in the classroom. It is clear now that Wes Streeting and the Labour government intend to erase trans people from public life, and will go out of their way to do so, no matter how many bodies lay in their path.

A poster on a black paper textured background, with the logo (an inverted pink triangle with "trans symbol" spokes at each corner, sat between "Bash" and "back" WHEN TRANS LIVES ARE UNDER ATTACK, WHAT DO WE DO? STAND UP BASH BACK

Our statement on the actions at Wes Streeting's office last night.

We refuse to sit and watch as trans young people have their healthcare stripped from them. We refuse to allow Streeting to cover up their suicides. We refuse to endure the violence and humiliation. They will have to go through us.

Pie in the Sky on Cockburn Street? :D

Happy Saturday! It's Accountant, Captain, Wife and Daughter time :D

Now That They’re Free, Venezuelan Men Want the World to Know What They Endured in CECOT Venezuelan men deported by the Trump administration say they endured months of physical and mental abuse inside a Salvadoran prison. Though happy to be home, they say the fact that they were released…

“The country with the Statue of Liberty deprived us of our liberty without any kind of evidence,” Leonardo José Colmenares Solórzano, a 31-year-old Venezuelan who was held in CECOT for months, said two days after he was returned to his family.

it is beyond the pale to view the existence of trans people as an acceptable sacrifice to “beat fascism”

if “beating fascism” leaves trans people exiled from society you did not actually beat fascism at all

Oh ffs :(
