🏳️‍⚧️ Transgender Day of Visibility I am in awe of the courage it takes to live authentically when transgender, nongender-conforming, and nonbinary people's rights are being threatened. Join me in fighting for a world where everyone can live with dignity and without fear.

NEW: Thanks very much to @itstygrey.bsky.social for getting me started down this path, but apparently nearly all of these tattoos are NOT from members of Tren de Aragua. Instead, they're stolen from random places on the internet, some nearly a decade old, and from tattoo artists around the world. 🧵

NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

If only there were a hierarchical arrangement with one court given supervisory authority over the other courts that could deal with this problem.

I want us to study the history of resistance to slave catchers right now. I want us to study how slave catchers worked, how they were sanctioned, who paid them, and why they did what they did, right now. I want us to study the hyperlocal and networked ways slave catchers were impeded. Right now.

When scholars of authoritarianism and fascism leave U.S. universities because of the deteriorating political situation here, we should really worry.

this is still normalizing ableism though, and that mocking someone for having a mobility aid, like a wheelchair, is fair game when the person sucks. Abbott isn’t an awful human because he uses a wheelchair. Disabilities are entirely neutral characteristics in terms of making someone “good” or “bad”

1. The 1Q 2025 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment Map is complete, and there are big changes. I have issued a "Do Not Travel" for transgender foreign citizens. Risk has deteriorated broadly across the US. Transgender youth see changes in previously safe states. Subscribe to support my journalism.

I think the stress has caught up to me. Every time I see a report about Pete Hegseth sending military plans to the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic I start laughing. Everything is so horrific but that’s horrific and hilarious.

The Columbus City School District just outed every trans kid whose parents allowed them to change their name in the school’s database. Without notice, CCS switched from preferred names to legal names in class rosters, Google Forms, emails & much more. Outed trans kids are being harassed.

NEW: The ACLU has filed a sworn declaration from a Venezuelan woman who ICE sought to turn over to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act, who declares that "I heard two US government officials talking and they said 'there is an order saying we can’t take off but we already have.'"

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

We DO NOT NEED HEARINGS. We DO NOT NEED INVESTIGATIONS. More information is not necessary. There is nothing to discuss. Call for the RESIGNATION of every person on that Signal thread. For very serious national security reasons. This is fucking outrageous and every Democrat should say so. NOW.

If Democrats aren't out there right now calling on Hegseth to resign or be fired (along with everyone in a goddamn Signal group), then just turn in your office keys and go the fuck home.
