gonna be cringe here for a bit and say that the fact that someone with a massive platform is even *acknowledging* our existence much less defending us means a whole fucking lot right now needed this to start my week. ty, chappell 💕 - ThreadSky

i saw her in tulsa in june. she always gets local drag performers to open for her, and she made a point to announce that was the first show where they were all trans women. she's a real one.

love that so much 💕

hallucinating.bsky.social•28 days ago

there was a creator this am saying this is what we need because they want us silenced essentially in public life and this is what we need from allies and for us also to not be silent

they want us broken down, scared, hidden

they don’t want us loud and proud in the face of their efforts to erase

emma.meangirls.online•27 days ago

this exactly!

they don't get to look away and pretend we don't exist

i cried when i watched her talk about us. tears of relief and joy and I didn't feel so lonely for a bit.

Chappell Roan is the best! <3

danifroom.bsky.social•28 days ago

Alan Cumming has been going on morning shows lately and bringing up the assault on trans rights even though the hosts clearly don't want to talk about it, and I couldn't love the man more

antiwarjosh.bsky.social•28 days ago

You go, Alan!

Chappell Roan is a real one. We are blessed to have her.

tiptransformed.bsky.social•28 days ago

Not cringe at all. It made me so happy.

rwentworth.bsky.social•27 days ago

Trans joy + affirmation gets allllll the passes! Thank you Chappell

mara.meangirls.online•28 days ago

i cried when i watched the clip the first time

emma.meangirls.online•28 days ago

we need this shit badly and i hope
more folks follow her lead

robowookie.bsky.social•27 days ago

i dont think its cringe to be surprised and happy at a crumb of acknowledgement 👽

hellhouse501c3.bsky.social•28 days ago

i honestly loved that anyone took time in their speeches to speak about the queer and trans community, immigrants, black girls, and emerging artists who need help. it was a much needed show of full-throated, widely disseminated support from people in power and i hope it doesn’t stop

merafera86.bsky.social•28 days ago

This...it made me emotional 🥲💖 She's been standing on business for a while now in her support for trans (and collective) liberation too.

And it might sound strange but I can't help but feel so proud to see yet another lesbian standing up for what's right. 🧡🤍🩷

aramina.net•27 days ago

It's not cringe if my eyes leak.

mxnectarine.bsky.social•28 days ago

And then she spoke on labour rights in the music industry as her acceptance speech. So far she’s always been reliable to say the right thing even when it’s not convenient.

madelinebright.bsky.social•28 days ago

Kinda surprised to see how angry this made a certain subset of Kamala Harris stans.

mxnectarine.bsky.social•28 days ago

They are the fucking worst, blocked a whole thread of people that started with a Kamal stan bemoaning Chappells outfit and calling her untalented and worse…

madelinebright.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yeah I don't get it. I appreciate Chappell's statement and I think she seems cool. I was also happy to show up and vote for Kamala even if she'd never get my vote in a primary. Same with Hillary.

antiwarjosh.bsky.social•28 days ago

KHive never cared. They just want to be the team in power and will use anyone and any issue to do so, and dispose of them when they become inconvenient.

mxnectarine.bsky.social•27 days ago

Im sure there are many well meaning fans of Kamala Harris. They just don’t seem to be very online.

marxismnojutsu.bsky.social•27 days ago

well, she's a big fucking piece of shit, so "well meaning fans of Kamala Harris" are AT BEST ignorant of their fave's nightmarish record as a DA.

madelinebright.bsky.social•27 days ago

I know a bunch in real life and they all seem like normal, kind people. The wonders of touching grass I imagine.

tiredofnonsense.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yes, and what I like about both her and Lady Gaga is that they always have. Their Music is mostly not to My taste, but So What?

megapocalypse.bsky.social•28 days ago

I hope at some point humanity gets past the thing that openly and authentically expressing how you feel is embarrassing or shameful.

Until then, be fucking cringe

slut.fyi•28 days ago

big agree. the bar is low and i'll take the w

exaktscience.bsky.social•28 days ago

It’s fucked up that this counts as as impressive solidarity this week, Emmy! I’m losing my goddamn shit! She continues to be a gem tho yeah
