god bless Carol Kane for playing weird old ladies since she was 35. God bless her for embracing her god given roll as “we need a wacky old lady for this”

It's a long game like Greg says and you gotta take care of yourself along the road. Take breaks, lean on ppl, let them lean on you. This isn't a solo run.

Every single thing about this is great. EVERY. SINGLE. THING.

Every Harry Potter book or shirt you buy directly funds the persecution of trans people. There's absolutely no excuse to support anything Harry Potter anymore unless you hate trans people.

The male-male Mallard pair is still hanging out at the pond near my office, still only associating with each other and ignoring the other birds nearby. If they get too far apart they suddenly race toward each other again. I love them very much. #birds

you may have heard that freya is in fact the groundhog from caddyshack. there are rumors. but they are not true. don't believe what you see on television. or read. or perceive. a groundhog chews wires. she rewires systems. she would not merely destroy the country club: she would nationalize it.

Both Theoden describing burnout as "feeling like butter spread over too much bread" and the Rohirrim charging into battle screaming "DEATH!" live rent-free in my mind at all times

Does the horrendous budget bill need to get voted down? 100% yes. Does this thread help me breathe a tiny bit easier? Also yes.

100%. She tried so hard all the time and was so bad at just being. She can rest now, and I can thrive. We've started over. I'd wondered if it was just the depression and COVID eating so much of my memory that Before is hazy anyway; it's reassuring to hear that other people feel the same way

do you want a break from things you cannot possibly control on your own? may i present the best ongoing thread on here at the moment. pure delight.

So two things: No, liberals, trans people don't deserve this because "elections have consequences." Trans people aren't a lesson in voting. No, leftists, trans folks don't deserve to die as punishment for US imperialism. If we all disappear, the US won't mourn us and won't change anything.

Please, journalists. Our job is to get people the information they need to make sense of their world. In so many ways, we've lost sight of that.

It rules being a tranny because you tune into the news on a random day and find yourself confronted with some new story like "New budget specifically says 'we wont cover healthcare for trannies. specifically those people'" and then i have to go back to work like everything is normal for 8 hours

If one more person asks me why I'm skipping the family beach trip this year, I may have to get up and leave the room to keep from shouting at them

the bill that passed last night is the first step on the Republican campaign to completely eradicate trans people if you live in a state with a Dem trifecta, now is the time to get on the ass of your local state reps/senators and get them to pass a law like this so trans people can get their HRT

Phone calls take just a few minutes. Sometimes it’s just leaving a voicemail. This budget bill is going to do so much harm to so many - on multiple fronts. Call your senators. Tell them how you feel. Tell them to vote no, to gum up the works, to do whatever is necessary to knock this down.

A VERY important point -- this bill is not final, not at all. It will now go to the Senate. If the Senate makes changes to the bill (they likely will), it will go back to the House for another vote. The House passed it last night with ONE VOTE. We can stop this. We have to.

hi, cis folks! if you’re calling democratic reps about the maga murder budget, you should *specifically mention* it’s unacceptable to pass a bill blocking funding for lifesaving transition care FOR TRANS PEOPLE OF ALL AGES. if you want to stand with trans people, this is a big moment. 🧵 reps.fyi

Excuse me, that’s my emotional support depressed bisexual man

Get 'em, Shela!!!! Also, I love Aaron Fischer a normal amount. I like to think of him as a paladin of compassion.

KICK HER ASS SHELA!

For me, the particularly feminized third-sexing for transfeminine people has a grim parallel in the clear investment cis society has in feminizing—emasculating!—trans men. As if they must always be Extreme Tomboys, even if they insist they are men!

Oh so NOW they want our movie??? 😂 Do yourself a favor, buy it on Blu-Ray when it comes out in a week and OWN it. Support Ketchup Entertainment and their tireless work to help distribute our film, both in theaters and physically.

Pedro Pascal at Cannes speaks on America's political chaos: "Fear is the way that they win, so keep telling the stories and expressing yourself and fighting. F*ck the people that try to make you scared and fight back. Don't let them win."

Having access to trustworthy experts and being able to parse what is and isn’t misinformation or disinformation is a PRIVILEGE. Education is a PRIVILEGE. People aren’t “stupid” because they can’t do this. And if you think you’ve never fallen for propaganda you’re lying to yourself.

a much greater threat to student athletes than having to play alongside trans students, is the common practice of politicians and pundits of discovering a new trans kid exists and then throwing that child’s name and school location to their audience of slavering hounds like a goddamn raw steak

Me, every time Pedro says something cool and great about transfolk.

Happy Caturday to all, and happy third birthday to Jack, our favorite menace to society!

This girl could make big money acting like a huge fucking crybaby loser and she'd rather do the right thing, hell yeah

The thing that gives me hope about SUPERMAN (2025) is that Gunn understands that the goofy parts of superheroes--the pets in little capes, the brightly colored costumes with underwear on the outside, the bowl cuts--are not barriers to the appeal of these characters, they are *part* of the appeal.

Someone on Tiktok asked if trans guys ever get "phantom boob" and it occurred to me that, no, nope. Phantom limb is the result of the brain still mapping something there that is no longer there. My brain already mapped to a masculine chest, and it was stuff actually being there that caused issues.

1. Womens Liberation Front (WoLF), an anti-trans group that works with far-right Christian orgs like the ADF, bragged on social media that it was meeting with over a dozen dems. We investigated and found that it wasn't true. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.
