"Anora embodies the dehumanizing consumer fantasy of a devoted worker who loves the consumer so much she does not conceive of her servitude as labor." angelfoodmag.com/romance-labor

NO OTHER LAND!!!! No Other Land now has more Oscars than it did distribution offers. a great and enduring shame upon the American film industry. free Palestine forever.

I want to talk about my move from Substack to Ghost for a second, and what it's been like working with a nonprofit tech company that actually lives its values. Especially if you're a writer still on Subtack, please read. 1/x First of all, about the org: They are a nonprofit, I just met employee +

Don't do this administration's work for them by coming up with justifying and rationalizing arguments for institutions and organizations to cooperate. This includes the justifications for why the Democratic party has to "find common ground." If you even start to think this, slap yourself.

In WA v Trump hearing the Judge issued a Temporary Protection Order- a win for the Trans community! 🏳️‍⚧️ Photos by Hannah Saunders taken outside the hearing today.

Bernie is an icon. 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏻 I told her story in this video last year: yesterqueers.com/videos/berni...

Ahem.

Sharing this great interview with Marsha and Sylvia conducted the year after the Stonewall uprising. They discuss their understanding of themselves as transvestites, transsexuals, and women, but the part of their identity most commonly erased is that of radical revolutionaries

Get this ref outta here #Unrivaled Absolute bullshit!

A beautifully gentle & much needed read this morning 🥹🌱✨

Today I learned that stoats change color depending on the season! In the winter, their fur turns all white so they can blend in with the snow. In warm months, they’re brown on top, white on their stomachs. Cute furry little mood rings!

"We owe it to trans youth and communities to push back with all our might, to refuse to deny care, to challenge administrators who try to shut it down, to support providers under attack, and to contribute to mutual aid efforts that will ensure continuity of care." @dreanyc123.bsky.social

A good blanket rule is never give fascists a single fucking inch on anything

Alright all - I'm stepping away for this evening. I'll be back in later tonight to see if there's any more updates. Stay safe, if you're trans, stay with us, we are not giving up. And most of all... these EOs are not law, they are not passed by congress, do NOT comply.

This whole "It's just a distraction" line of thinking needs to die. They are genocidal bastards hellbent on eradicating the trans community. It's not a god damn distraction. This is what they stand for and you're running cover for it by minimizing it.

I think that we should be talking about what Trump is trying to do to trans people in the context of the Nuremberg laws.

I read this piece by @brittneymac15.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com and it was cogent, informative and caught be up on what I need to know. I cannot stress enough how good @teenvogue.com's political coverage has been over the past 5 years. www.teenvogue.com/story/trumps... - make it a point to read

Trans and nonbinary sibs, drop your CA, VM, PayPal, etc below! If you have a GFM or other crowdfunding effort, drop that, too! Cis folks, let’s show our support. Donate if you can. Share a link to your community.

The thing that people in power fear the most about trans people—and especially trans kids—is the possibility we present. We are a manifestation of demanding something better for ourselves and making it real. And that possibility, that hope, scares them so much.

You never needed government approval to be trans. This won't stop us either.

Trans Lives Matter. 🏳️‍⚧️ Saying it louder for the f*cking ghouls in the back.

More reason to mask up (& bring your kitties inside)

"We are a creative, disruptive people who have never accepted silence." In this op-ed, @raquelwillis.com offers advice to trans kids on resisting discriminatory times and calls on the strength and resolve of trans trailblazers throughout history. ⤵️

Why the LUNAR owls tho? #unrivaled 🦉🏀
