🧵 If you haven't already done this, do it NOW even if you are not receiving any form of Social Security at this point: 1. Set up a mySocialSecurity account 2. If you are a recipient, download the Benefit Verification letter 3. I recommend you use login.gov rather than id.me.

1. On Friday Night, it became apparent that historic LGBTQ+ clinic Whitman-Walker in DC had erased trans care and resources from it's website. The stated reason is harmful to us all. I make my case against it, and other orgs, erasing us for federal dollars. Subscribe to support my journalism.

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

“She also draws an analogy between Terfism’s inaccurate insistence on sex as an immutable binary and contemporary nationalism. “‘It’s almost like a nationalism of sex,’ she says of Terfism. ‘At the psychic level, they want strong borders, and they want to make sexuation great again.’”

To be clear: the brutal, prolonged torture and murder of Sam Nordquist for his trans identity was ruled "not a hate crime" by upstate NY law enforcement because it happened to a trans man. The #1 rule of hate crimes is they never happen to trans people. No matter how much hate is behind the crime.
