i was out at a bar awhile back and the bartender asked if i grew up catholic, and i did. i asked him how he knew and he said “only people that grew up catholic lean forward at a bar, you carry too much trauma” and that’s lived in my head rent free ever since lmfao

Ken Klipperstein leaked full passport guidance for trans people: - X markers will be a focal point - Existing unexpired passports will remain good - No guidance on confiscation, but it doesn’t seem like they will - Renewals less clear but it looks like they will use “a preponderance of evidence”

For four glorious years, I didn’t have to wake up in the morning and reach from my phone to see if our country was on the right track. Not anymore I’m back to waking up and thinking oh my God I hope we still have a country.

In a new lawsuit filed against Trump by state AGs, a family with a trans kid shares she died by suicide last month citing fears Trump would deny her access to gender-affirming care. "Her parents have expressed fear...that what happened to their daughter does not happen to other children."

I can’t even begin to describe the sheer heartbreak I feel reading this. We need to give trans youth a future.

Just released memorandum from OPM: Federal facilities will now have a bathroom ban for transgender people. It will go into effect on the 31st. It also has a slew of effects and puts into place the 1st anti-trans EO policies for every agency. This will have a ton of impacts very quickly.

The best weather.

How the FUCK is it still January-

lmfao

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it. It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

I appreciate all the people recommending the Shock Doctrine. I've been thinking about what makes Trump's use of these tactics a little different. In recent decades, shock tactics were used mainly to rapidly impose neoliberal economic policies. But what Trump is doing goes way beyond that. a 🧵

Some news: A few hours after I filed the draft to this story, CNN laid me off. As part of a massive restructuring/changes across the network, my role as climate writer was among the 200 that got cut last week. It’s disappointing, but I’ll be okay. My last day is on Feb 21. A thread.🧵 1/

you think elon musk is a nazi for doing the nazi salute? next you’ll tell me he’s a nazi for speaking at a rally for AfD, the modern german nazi party 😂

trumpflation already kicking in

I don't think I need to clarify my stance on the topic but these soccer folks summed it up

I fucking told you so.

This is an example of why independent media is so important now than ever.

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

Do not Do not Do NOT Announce or even hint on your social media that you’re doing illegal or potentially illegal things. Even if for excellent reasons. You will be a target and make the people you aid targets.

it’s going to be so much fun when he dies

This decision by @nbcnews.com to edit out Musk's clear fascist salute with a needless crowd scene is just craven, abject surrender. Simply absolute ham-fisted "please don't believe your own eyes" stuff. I never want to hear the phrase "liberal mainstream media" again. It is ... not that.

I tried to warn everyone about authoritarian information states and the true synergy between corporate news and the fascist misinformation machine and now it has been fully unabashedly unleashed inwardly onto Americans. No one is ready for the effect of zero ability to trust what you experience.

I want every single trans person to read this document. It is important to understand what we are fighting against and the shamelessness of their hatred. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

elon lost the trust of all gamers

well that turned out to be a bit of an understatement

Now every time I hear there will be substantial rain I start freaking out.

What drives me nuts about the trans youth "debate" is how much of it consists of people who don't know anything demanding compromises that already exist. Hormones and surgeries for minors receive ABSURD amounts of regulation and scrutiny! Either engage with the facts on this issue or shut up.
