Trans people are such a threat to authoritarianism because we prove that so many of the rules are completely made up. There is no set way that you're supposed to live. If we can refuse to be assigned a gender we don't like, we can refuse other things that are "set in stone," too.

RIP Angie Stone. Your touch on songs made famous by D’Angelo, Erykah Badu and others as well as your own Black Diamond defined a period of my life. Deepest thanks.

Oh look! Mumford and Sons don't just make the worst kind of bland drivel excuse for music, they are also far-right-loving shit-stains. I didn't think I could hate them any more but it turns out I can. novaramedia.com/2025/02/24/m...

As @jessebrown.bsky.social pointed out the other day, the problem here is reporting what he says, rather than what he does. In this age of bullshit, actions need to speak louder than words.
