So Trump's shutting down of the entire government's funding system for American projects is literally so he can go line by line and target transgender people and other minorities.
When we said transphobia affects cis people too, well... here you go.

We Only Have Ourselves: The How-Tos and DOs and DONβTs of Mutual Aid
For all of humanityβs many, many flaws, one of our most redeeming characteristics as a species is an almost-universal desire to connect with one another. When terrible things happen and communitiesβ¦
Mutual aid is not just a disaster response, itβs a way of caring for one another, building stronger communities, and preparing for whatever life may throw at us next. Itβs a labor of loveβand a way of life.

Great read. Iβve been blown away by the incredible organizing in Chicago over the years to fight deportations and detention expansion. Lots to learn from their efforts and how they are preparing now.

Hey everyone! Incredible news!
Trans Scouts selling GS cookies this year on my list have sold over 50,000 boxes of GS cookies!
If you want girl scout cookies, consider buying from a trans girl scout this year! They'll mail them to you!
This is literally my fav thing to do every year :)

If folks feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of policies I think they should read The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein, because that effect is on purpose. (If you do read it, feel free to skip the chapter on torture)

This is such a tired take.
Immigrants, Black people and queer folx who make our country beautiful are the ones who will feel the effects of this administration the most. Our elected politicians who swore in under oath to protect our freedoms failed at every turn. Get mad, get loud, not vengeful.
