And also to so miss the point that this attack on us is about constructing norms of sex and power that will affect everyone. The positioning of “trans issues” here ranks among the worst Times offenses and that is saying a lot.

The Iowa legislature just became the first in modern history to repeal a statutory civil rights law by removing protections for gender identity first passed in 2007. They have legalized discrimination against trans people in housing, healthcare, and employment. This is a campaign of eradication.

There's a lot of language in the new sports ban EO, but I want to draw your attention to this section in particular. This is the latest piece in a growing body of evidence that this administration is seeking to control trans people's ability to enter or leave the country.

What’s happening to trans people right now is an administrative and medical genocide. GENOCIDE. Name it. And to the trans folks reading this: stay with us. Please. Your life is precious. And I will fight with and for you. Stay with us. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

Your regular reminder that the first known clinic to offer gender-affirming surgeries was … destroyed by Nazis. In 1933. (Magnus Hirschfeld’s Institut für Sexualwissenschaft.) They always come for trans people first.

transition has been mostly DIY and community-organized since forever. when you're ready, figure out what you can offer and what you need. talk in real life, use signal, get creative, don't get caught. they can't break us in a way that matters!!!! I love you.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

I run a non-profit that directly provides resources to trans people. I have housed the unhoused in my house, fed the hungry, paid for surgeries, been the person to take care of people after surgery. We do ID documents, medical supplies, community building. We need more support than ever: sculptr.co
