Same exact thing.

10 years on HRT, 9 years post-op and even though we're quickly sliding into full-blown fascism in this country, I am at home in my body in a way I could never have imagined a decade ago. I love being trans. I love my trans siblings. You matter, we matter. You are not alone, we're in this together.

Trump just signed an executive order banning gender affirming care for trans youth nationwide (under 19). Specifically directs the DOJ to investigate providers under criminal and federal consumer protection laws. drive.google.com/file/d/1oTIm...

Mutual aid is the only way.

The fascist oligarchy is here and I feel like they're heading deep into FAFO territory. This is unsustainable. We outnumber them, we see the truth, we can and will not sit idly by while they plunder and pillage in the name of patriarchal, white supremacist Christian nationalism.

This is literally what Rufo said he'd do nearly three years ago. It's a full ideological purge of the federal government to pave the way for unchecked fascism.

What is existence? I know this "reality" we created isn't all there is. We are stardust, and the universe--from micro to macro--has shown us again and again the truth of our oneness with everything. Pictures like this fill me with such awe, and sometimes let the tips of truths slip into perspective.

Struggling a little today. It is hard to feel so isolated both in my physical life and online. I don't know how to go about connecting in either realm, which feels hard right now, especially considering how essential I feel it is to be building (queer) community at this particular moment in time.

We are now open for new work for our February 2025 issue, to be edited by the incredible KB Brookins! This issue has no theme -- just send good work! More information: beestungmag.com/about/

Well, I guess it is finally happening. I am starting to work on a story I began 10 years ago, and I am excited to be feeling so inspired to be getting back into it. Thanks for creating a space out here where folks like myself can once again remember how amazing it can be to be creatively engaged 💙

I love being trans. I love being queer. I love being non-binary. I am almost 40. It took me a long time to feel like there was room for me in this reality. I just passed a decade on hormones and 8 years post top surgery. I am thankful for access to care, and have not once regretted it. We MATTER.

BREAKING: CEO shooter Luigi Mangione once participated in a ritual game where participants slowly hanged a man by guessing the letters of a secret word

good day, lovely humans of the internet! keep fighting the good fight, y'all. remember how much beauty exists in this reality, even when it feels hard. we have the power, we always have. I love you even if I don't know you because I recognize the significance that we exist, here, together, now.

We can only build a better future by facing the wounds of slavery, colonialism, and genocide that fracture our connections. Fascism relies on nostalgia, claiming the past was perfect and dismissing its pain, blaming today’s hurt on enemies instead of reckoning with our shared history.

The operative principle is not that political violence is not allowed. It is that it is allowed only by some actors, for some ends, and forbidden to others.

After a week on this site, I am feeling a bit hopeful about our species being able to get ourselves on track. We all know & see clearly the established systems do not serve the collective whole. Capitalism leads to exploitation of planet and people and is an unsustainable idea, a failed experiment.
