Fuck this fucking administration for fudging around with my biological needs so much that it's cooking my brain with all the STRESS.

Middle age is primarily about opening a new kitchen sponge and going "this is much better"

If Prince Andrew used Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should go to jail.

If Bill Clinton used Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should go to jail.

If Donald Trump used Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should go to jail.

That wasn’t so difficult, was it?

Anti-Trans Congresswoman Nancy Mace Now Pushing Anti-Gay Slogans From The 80s “Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” she tweeted on Tuesday, seemingly unprovoked.

Nancy Mace is now pushing anti-gay slogans from the 80s.

“Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” she said on twitter, despite having voted for gay marriage twice.

Anti-trans panic always spreads to the rest of the LGBTQ+ community.

Resources for food assistance and donations in Montgomery, AL.

Inspired by @prisonculture.bsky.social, we made a handout for trick or treating tomorrow with local resources for food assistance and places to donate!

I'm angrier at Trump voters tenfold, though. There was no excuse to bring that back after we had a first run.

I'm so mad at Trump and absentee voters. If the government stymies the lawsuit for emergency SNAP funds, I really don't know what I'll do.

Some may argue, as they often do when transgender people raise concerns about Gavin Newsom, that the alternative would be worse. And in many respects, Trump or whatever Trump-like candidate emerges in 2028 would be worse than Newsom on a host of issues. But even here, for transgender people, the calculation is not so straightforward. Right now, the community has one thing going for it: one major political party still passes protective legislation and has not joined the litany of anti-trans policies escalating in red states. If that fragile dichotomy collapses—if Democrats too decide that transgender people can be sacrificed for political gain—the result will not be a lesser evil. It will be a political consensus that our rights are gone, and that outcome could be even worse.

One only has to look to the United Kingdom to see what happens when both major parties decide transgender people are expendable. For years, right-leaning parties targeted trans people relentlessly, while Labour offered tepid, lukewarm support. In the lead-up to recent elections, that support collapsed. Multiple Labour leaders determined that trans people were safe to sacrifice, culminating in the party leader’s now-infamous declaration that he does not believe transgender women are women. Today, the country is pursuing a nationwide bathroom ban, and youth care has been practically outlawed. In a political environment where both left and right agree that your existence is negotiable, there is no one left to fight for you. It is untenable—and if such sentiment takes root inside the Democratic Party, it could take generations for transgender Americans to claw back even the most basic of rights.

Transgender people have watched this performance before, and we know exactly where it leads. Whatever one thinks of Newsom as a politician or a future candidate, it is crucial to understand that for many in our community, his rise provokes as much fear as the Republican Party itself. The damage he can inflict is in some ways greater: Republicans attacking us keeps allies on alert, ready to resist. But when Democrats begin to adopt the same rhetoric, that resistance dissolves. Transphobia inside the party is not a treatable wound inflicted by the far right—it is a malignancy, slow-moving but devastating, one that threatens to hollow out decades of progress from within. If it spreads unchecked, it could mark the end of so much our community has fought to preserve.

This, from @erininthemorning.com's latest piece about Gavin Newsom helps explain why Newsom-loving libs' "erm, then enjoy Trump again!!!" stuff doesn't work on trans people who've been paying attention. www.erininthemorning.com/p/why-transg...

People on food stamps make healthier grocery decisions than most of us Which is why we shouldn't tell them what to buy.

With SNAP on the verge of running out of money, a critical reminder that people who rely on food stamps make far healthier grocery choices than most of us do.

What's frustrating is that as I read this, I knew exactly the thought process Jamie Oliver had... "What's Korean food famous for? Oh yeah, Korean BBQ! I'll whack some BBQ sauce in there, that'll make it Korean."

Good time to enjoy Anthony Bourdain reading that twat Oliver for filth.
