The existence of the chicken nugget implies the existence of the chicken ingot.

Trans people still able to focus on anything these days is something.

Every member of the press corps who attends official White House events now is a scab

Bex is in severe need of long term aid w/ cancer treatment & costs of living They have had to postpone several doses of medication & other procedures Please help if able and share the post below For greater visibility, quoting the post below with tags such as #MutualAid đź’•đź’¸

This campaign has helped me make an enormous amount of progress, and I'm sleeping a tiny bit better knowing that I have some of the bare minimum in place, but I'm down to the last of the resources needed to carry me the rest of the way. Half of what's left will go directly to supplies.

Happy Birthday to Frederick Douglass who would by very disappointed in all of this BS but would never, ever stop fighting (or getting his photo taken)

I know I don't talk about current events much outside of actionable things. I think people should inform themselves at a pace that's healthy for them, and I think microblogging can be a dangerous echo chamber of dooming. Not everything can be changed with the Internet.

Someone even wrote a whole book about it ( @tillybridges.bsky.social ), it’s pretty good. www.bearmanormedia.com/products/beg...

Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

The Matrix is a trans allegory through and through. Always has been. It's one of the most coherent ways to read the film. There's going to be people who shout "death of the author!" without understanding what that means. @aranock.bsky.social has them covered. youtu.be/KGzSGkmV5e8

Getting word that a few hospitals are offering trans care again after the EO was blocked by a federal judge. Please send the decision to your hospital, and PLEASE send me a message if your hospital has resumed care, as I’m doing a story on this.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

If you're not currently directly in the line of fire of what's happening, it's very important not to add to a sense of panic and not to catastrophize. It doesn't help those who ARE in the direct line of fire. Better to say nothing than to add to people's legitimate stress and fear.

HRT should be over-the-counter medication and I'm not fucking kidding. Most medication should be, actually. How can we be a society that promotes bodily autonomy while gatekeeping most medication, including things like fucking insulin which people who need it will just immediately die without?!

Some folks liked this post which put it in my notifications. For a moment, I thought I posted it this last Sunday, not a year ago. Nice to know things are much worse now. In a just world, we'd get a stipend for having to deal with this shit.

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

ICE is OUT in Dayton/Cincinnati/Kettering URGENT PLEASE SHARE : REPORT FROM DAYTON COMRADE PLEASE SHARE ICE witnessed around Hope Church on Wilmington Pike (Kettering) around 10:15 this morning. They were working in a coordinated effort with Sugarcreek and Bellbrook Police departments. #FuckICE

alright you wanna know how to support trans people? hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit. Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

Harvard wants to forget slavery. It would also probably prefer if you forgot that Harvard invented napalm, which burnt more civilians to death than the atom bomb killed during WW2, plus another 200k women, children, and elderly people in N. Vietnam and Cambodia.

Why are so many journalists On Here and There inviting govt whistleblowers to reach out via insecure (work email and Bluesky DMs, among other things) means? You have an ethical obligation to direct potential sources someplace safe. At least INCLUDE a Signal or Proton contact.

Ash has been fighting tirelessly for trans rights in West Virginia. With the anti-trans movement in ascendence, he is uniquely vulnerable as someone who has been visible, outspoken, and effective. It's time to get him out. I gave because of everything he's given our community. gofund.me/856e2722

You come into my house, you eat at my table with my family, we treat you like the son we never had and yet you're disrespecting me in my own home by offering the gift of manmade horrors and have the audacity to claim they're beyond my comprehension when they are so clearly not?

Sorry for being cunty today but in my defense, I was feeling cunty

Health insurance giants, including United Healthcare, have denied basic scans and taken months to reconsider, physicians say

I like the Star Trek episode where Picard sings a jaunty song in Ten Forward and Riker gets so concerned he takes over command of the ship

saw someone asking what trans people did to deserve all the vitriol, & nothing actual of course. but transness breaks the rule #1 of the conservative hierarchical worldview, that your position is to a large degree defined by your birth. choosing to put yourself in a different tier is heretical

“the government’s definition of gender means everyone is female lol” they know it’s stupid. They did it stupid on purpose. They wrote some flimsy, vaguely sciencey nonsense to hide an ugly rule they fully and intrinsically understand but won’t say plainly: trans people are not allowed

Okay, here’s the deal: RIGHT NOW is the time for concrete, direct action. If you’re following me, it’s probably because you care about trans art and trans literature. The article below lays out my suggestions for dozens of concrete actions you can take to preemptively combat literary censorship.

for everyone else: buy trans literature & art NOW while you can. there’s a non-zero chance that queer and *especially* trans voices wind up being temporarily silenced at some point over these next 4 years. support trans people *now* while we can still ask for help & make incredible art in public.

Please help J. to get where she needs to go! đź©·

DIY HRT: Everything I Can Legally Tell You My guide to do-it-yourself hormone therapy, months in the making, is out now on YouTube. Tell your friends! xoxo youtu.be/o2Ggwe2j0Gc

I literally don't know how many times I've heard "But if you can prove you're a citizen, how can they deport you?" When the guys who would say "tell it to a judge!" won't let you talk to a judge, then you can't prove anything.

there's like, a lot of people out there who seem to think they can fix things by patiently and obediently following the law, and i hate to be the one to tell you this but sometimes you have to do things that Evil Government doesn't like

Cis folks looking to help trans folks: money talks. Help my trans pal survive, why don't you? www.gofundme.com/f/5ub7u-aide...

We're going to make it through this đź©·đź’™ Let's turn our fear and rage into community action.
