When fascists claim that "XX and XY are the only sexes" it's not a misunderstanding of reality but an expression of intent to erase anybody who exists outside of their desired norm.

The last time I got on an airplane was in 2019. And sure, the future is unknowable, and all that; but I’m pretty sure that *was* the last time. Because nothing about this headline surprises me in the least.

🚨 Hey guys remember how I wrote a whole article about how P25 wants to use this to gut the queer internet? Yeah, the Dems are helping them marching it in the door. This is where the trans internet could very well die.

NY Times repeatedly edited the headline. First changing it from "trans man" to "man", then changing it from "man" to "person". There is no innocent or flattering way to read this. This is simply post-death erasure, because the Times accepts and supports Trump's assertion that we do not exist.

Trans people have pointed out for years why these attacks will be used beyond our community and for that we were subjected to a barrage of opeds asking questions about which rights we deserved

“I can’t leave the Nazi site; I’m too popular there.” Like, do people not get how this makes them look?

A fascinating thread.

built a device to tell me when deep space nine is playing on a nearby screen, i call it the odometer

*Very* belatedly watching @hbomberguy.bsky.social’s plagiarism video; and of course it’s wonderful, but… You know how it was really spooky timing that his deep dive into Pathologic came out *right* before covid? Anyway, I have to keep reminding myself he’s talking about humans here, and not LLMs.

one thing i've been trying to communicate for a good long while about the dems is that when people tell you they're not corrupt, they're just incompetent - that implies that they're trying hard, they're just stupid. but they're not trying hard either. anyway dems are taking another long weekend

Yet another thing trans people were trying to warn cis people about for the better part of a year.

You should watch this incredible and moving video, anyway; but in case this helps sway you: it seems The MISSING is on sale over on Steam for the next week.

Plz watch this 🥺

Kamala Harris when asked why she put trans women in men;s prisons:

No taxation without representation. If our representatives (ie, Congress) have no authority over the Treasury, why should citizens be compelled to pay into it? Asking for 335 Million friends.

I do believe in a diversity of tactics but I swear I’m exhausted by so much of the energy being directed at trying to wishcast the Dems into being a different party

At a con I attended back in 2008, I saw a panel where a nerd did one of those “less of a question and more of a comment” things, but it was a rage-filled rant whose explicit theme was How dare Apple take away his ability to condescend to jocks by letting them do computer shit without his help?

“Why is Elon’s coup not on the front page of the New York Times???” idk, probably because the NYT is a puzzle game app that happens to also release articles about how trans people aren’t real but are also somehow a menace. It’s like asking why there isn’t a sonnet printed on your toilet paper

I’ve been told — repeatedly and forcefully — that Kamala Harris ran a flawless campaign. Perhaps Democrats should reuse the extremely coherent and crowd-pleasing message that carried her into the White House.

Surreal being a trans person on this website this week. Every single one of my trans friends is making emergency preparations in case Trump bans our health care while fighting off existential dread and depression, and 99% of the cis people i follow seemingly have nothing to say about the trans EOs.

Trump's unqualified MTV Reality Star DOT Secretary immediately looking like a complete Michael Brown-level chump during the first real crisis he experienced kinda exposes that Dems were morons for voting to confirm any of Trump's dogshit-tier nominees

there's gonna be so much dogshit oscar bait about a sad ICE agent with a hot Latina wife who gets sad about his job throwing children into vans to be shipped to random countries because he eats a really good taco.

The myth of non violent protest is that there can exist a sustained & effective campaign of non violent, popular protest. The truth is that the rules & laws of what is allowed is arbitrated by police at any given moment. If its sustained & effective, police will simply bring the violence themselves
