We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

I've been getting a lot of messages from bots lately, so I set allow messages to no one. If you want to chat, @ me and prove you're human (and not trying to sell me something)

Stop writing “rolls back DEI initiatives” and start writing “begins resegregation efforts” challenge

This is beyond screwed up. All these firings, the elimination of DEI. Confiscation of passports and identity documents. This shit had to be in the works for months. If this is my last ever post, remember I love you all.

FYI they WILL confiscate your documentation if you are trans and apply for a passport in the US.

People need to start writing history books for the future. As in, chronicling what is happening now and putting it into actual books, on paper, and hiding those books in basements or something.

Sometimes we interact with someone whose personality meshes with ours like a protein to a receptor site. For good or ill, they profoundly change the course of our life.

I'm less concerned about my body, particularly the parts very few people see. I'm concerned about interacting with the world, and others as a woman would. The changes I want to make to my body are the ones that will cue people to treat me the way I need. My goal is social more than physical. 2/2

I'm going to start posting here as well as the F site - if I want more engagement I need to take the first move! I'm curious how other trans women define the success of their transitions. I'm afraid I'm doing it wrong. 1/2

So I think there is some confusion here. This is not true at UT Austin, but appears to be true at another Texas school? www.dallasnews.com/news/educati...

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

For certain (personal) reasons, I post very little politics-related content on Facebook. But I will share this here: www.change.org/p/demand-an-...

Set up a bsky account a while back but didn't do much with it. Will mostly read and sometimes react or repost, but mostly a lurker.

My phone just auto corrected "trauma dumping" to "trauma dumpling," so I painted this in case anyone would like a visual of my mental state. How's everyone else doing?

a fun thing i learned being pregnant is that lots of things related to pregnancy haven't been studied because researchers are largely men and don't really care all that much

We Are Ruled By Sociopaths And Morons The response to the Gaza crisis from western leaders and media outlets and celebrities shows very clearly that we really are led by the least among us. The least wise or intelligent. The least compassionate or insightful. We are ruled by sociopaths and morons.

the phrase “entropy death of the internet” is a term that alludes to the state where the internet is overwhelmed by disorder and redundancy where the sign value of information eclipses all potential information with use value

This is a violation of patient privacy, health rights, and parental rights. These extremists are making up facts to justify unconstitutional laws that are grounded in a baseless religious belief.

Note that Joe Biden, who claims to be a "friend of labor", hasn't said a f#cking thing in support of the UAW's contract demands. Bernie Sanders always does.
