Her caregiver burned out. Her group home said they couldn’t accommodate. A psychiatric facility was too full. So what happened? A woman with severe intellectual disabilities was placed in solitary confinement in a jail. The entire system let her down. As it lets so many others down.

I know y’all don’t care about this but there’s a pretty fast spreading Covid variant going around and there’s gonna be a summer surge whether you like it or not. You can, of course, avoid this by getting vaccinated and wearing a mask but you won’t do that.

a great reminder to allies and other trans folks that calling nonbinary people “a they/them” is icky and always has been!! even ironically it makes my skin crawl. i am not a set of pronouns. i am more than what body parts i have.

i feel like more americans who are marginalized should understand this feeling, and seek out palestinians. i have these thoughts every day but i don’t have to endure endless bombings, starvation, the elements. we could make the world better for each other and i wish we would.

I am not okay. I am not strong. And I’m tired of pretending that I am. They’ve taken everything from us our homes, our families, our safety. But what hurts most is what they’ve stolen from inside me. They stole me. I don’t know who I am anymore. I’ve lost my voice, my energy, my soul.

i've said it before please mask. i'd like to go outside, see people, attend events, maybe even travel (ignoring other obstacles for a moment.) the pandemic has made my life too small to cope but without this basic type of care, it'll continue. i want to come and see you but not if it isn't safe.

“Hi, welcome to Applebee’s! How’s your day so far?” i’m not going to discuss that with you “Go ahead and choose any open table you like, we also have seats available at the bar!” am i free to go? “Can I get you started with anything? Our Famous Boneless Wings, perhaps?” lawyer

This needs to be reiterated right now. Testosterone is a scheduled substance. I talk a lot about transfemme DIY access. You know why I ONLY talk about E? Because it's legal right now. I can legally spread estrogen awareness. Our transmasc brothers don't have that privilege. They need allies.

Really over this proclivity I see, no doubt from well-meaning people, to jump in with "what about viagra" as if there's any benefit at all to obscuring that this is specifically a war on trans and abortion care. It feels trivializing when we are talking about life and death.

Conservatives will likely point to private charity or paid work as the solution here. But families on SNAP are already relying on overstretched food banks to fill in the gaps in the program. And most families on SNAP are already working--their jobs just don't pay enough to keep their kids fed.

The house has passed a ban on coverage of gender care for all ages under Medicaid, CHIP and ACA plans. I don't know what to say to anyone this morning other than that the hundreds of thousands of people who are about to lose access to the care they need to stay alive deserve better than silence.

Gavin Newsom’s brutal sweeps have repeatedly targeted our friend Ryann. She lost housing while escaping domestic abuse and has since been arrested, ticketed, and had state officials intentionally smear her belongings in dog shit simply because she lives in a tent near a freeway.

I love the immature male Snowcaps. They're transitioning from their white fledgling molt to their gorgeous red, but it's a lovely mix. This little guy is starting to develop a bit of his white cap. From this morning at @tapirvalley.bsky.social #CostaRica #birds #hummingbirds #nature 🌿

hi, folks! is calling federal electeds to ask them not to pass shitty legislation not doing it for you? i get it. how about helping to bring about positive change that would materially help thousands of trans people? and that's actually possible? do you know about washington state's HB 1971?🧵

too many people are pissed and mean about the wrong things and completely fucking ambivalent about the effects they cause in other people who are also struggling.

i know countless others have felt it far sharper and more urgently than i am but i am drowning and i need a break. i need these politicians to feel fear. i am so tired of staring down the painfully long road of my future and never seeing who and what i saw six years ago when i came out.

One reason to primary them all, every single one, is that you know they would look at the mangled corpse of medicaid and trans healthcare left after today and go "that's just the way it is, what you're asking for is a big change, a huge increase in budget and labor" etc.

It bears repeating that 5calls.org makes it incredibly easy to contact your reps. They give you the phone numbers, a script to read, and a run down of what is happening with each issue. I just called my senators in my pjs half awake and I'll probably do it some more later

Cis Americans, if you do one single thing today please let it be to contact your representative. You have no idea how many US trans people I follow who are freaked the fuck out And for everyone else, if America does it, your country will use America as an example of how they can do it too. Speak up
