PLEASE CIS ALLIES Have you said “I support trans people?” Now’s your chance to really follow through. @goodlawproject.bsky.social is crowdfunding to challenge the recent UK decision to effectively strip trans people of all our rights. PLEASE DONATE. Any amount helps. goodlawproject.org/s/8d966c

The second part of this is right on time. Thank you so much Kelly.

Don’t forget!! 199 other people got kidnapped with no pushback because they’re “criminals”

My god, I know we’re outraged, but STOP. SHARING. HER IMAGE. She has become an outrage farmer, and every share, every like, enables and empowers her, even to scorn her. Perhaps especially. Share instead the effects, the people hurt by her wealth and her words. Let them know they aren’t alone.

The Time of Cowards A poem to explain our moment.

Say it enough, and they will believe anything.

My latest piece, written for the Kettering Foundation. I urge organizations, nonprofits, and companies to end the cycle of over compliance with Trump threats, and show how doing so ushers in fascism. Some lessons from what we have seen in the trans community. kettering.org/do-not-compl...

Barnes & Noble in Georgetown with a stark “Bohemian Rhapsody”-referencing book display this weekend.

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

Yosef's family has very few donations, please share & give to help them survive & escape Israel's genocidal famine & intensifying assault on Gaza. Bsky keeps closing their accounts. They're starving & in desperate need:

1. Trump has officially defunded school lunches in Maine for kids and disabled adults because of transgender people. Trump is holding the funds hostage and will allow kids to go hungry unless Maine discriminates. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The problem is sociopathic corporate greed. 🧐

Our NYC public libraries have been underfunded for too long. Write a letter telling NYC's mayoral candidates that our libraries deserve at least half of 1% of the annual city expense budget (0.5%) in the upcoming budget and into the future. actionnetwork.org/letters/dema... It takes 2 minutes.

!! CALL TO ACTION !! #Booksky please join me in the fight to save our libraries. EveryLibrary is working hard to save the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), which is the federal agency charged with distributing Congressionally approved funds to state libraries and grant recipients.

1. Trump has announced that transgender people are an "improper ideology," and has demanded that the Women's History Museum remove them or lose funding. It is the latest in a government campaign to erase transgender people. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Also this day is “Fake Oppression Day”, according to some writer named J K Rowling. Support asexual creators, they’re really cool and kind. Buy their work instead of Rowling’s. The main char of my graphic novel THE GHOSTKEEPER is asexual too! Go give it a read 👻 theghostkeeper.carrd.co

here’s a curse word free version of “look it up” as requested by countless teachers and librarians 🥰😘

happy International Asexuality Day! friendly reminder that we belong in the queer community, we aren't all "sex-repulsed prudes", and just because some of us depict eroticism and sex in any creative medium we may pursue isn't equal to wanting it for ourselves in real life 😊

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

I can’t remember which one of my shares had a post that they were a whole universe- but they all are. Abed managed a grocery store, he played professional football, he very much wanted to have a family with Bara. He is a person with hopes and dreams and faults just like me, just like you.

So we’re clear, tariffs combined with tax cuts for the wealthy is just upward transfer of wealth. It’s regressive taxation. People who make money by not working get to keep more of it, while people who work spend a larger percentage of their dwindling income on a worse standard of living.

Not being allowed to hand water to people in line to vote no matter who they are voting for, while being allowed to hand people million dollar checks to get their vote, is the most American thing ever.

I am quiet again today, but I wish to declare: Happy Trans Day of Visibility, I am nonbinary trans, and I’m staying right here 🏳️‍⚧️

Fuck visibility. I want safety. I want to be able to cross the border without fearing my passport will be seized. I want to be employable. I want to be allowed to love who I love without interference by the state. I want to be able to piss.

Ok one more pic but this time with two amazing women ❤️❤️🏳️‍⚧️ #tdov Shirts by @steviesafespaces.com

Happy Transgender Day of Visibility, everyone!
