This is how it feels right now

People keep asking why no one is raising the alarm or why no emergency measures are happening or why people in power are letting this happen, but I’ve realized over time that they do not actually want the answer.

Here is the Email address for PBS NewsHour in the event you’d like to share your thoughts about them giving a 12 minute interview to a guy (Michael Knowles / The Daily Wire) who has called for the eradication of trans people.

trans women will be raped to death. they know this will happen. this is a crucial part of the steps to our genocide.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

W.E.B. Du Bois on the white takeover of southern public schools after Reconstruction. Not a coincidence that the chapter, "Back Towards Slavery," follows his analysis of the eventual dedegration of the public school system. Attacks on education are vital to (re)instituting authoritarian rule.

Like if the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft burned the books themselves in hopes it would keep the wolves from the door. Friends, the wolves seek the light.

🏳️‍⚧️ WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN! 🏳️‍⚧️ CHLA reversed its decision to pause initiating hormonal therapy for transgender youth. Gender affirming care is lifesaving care. We must continue to fight back, stay organized, and to demand institutions not give into Trumps fascist executive orders.

Big protest coming to Stonewall National Monument in just an hour or two. If you are in the area, get down there, be active, show your disapproval of the removal of transgender people from all online websites for the Stonewall National Monument page!

The only way to push back against resegregation is revolution. We will not go back. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

People with doctorates are the most liberal and progressive. The entire mission of destroying academia is to eliminate entire voting demographics. They explicitly spell this out. Shutting down PhD programs isn't an accident, it's the goal.

You have died of procedural norms.

The thing about folders is that they look like tacos. *eats your sys32 folder*

Go to town hall meetings. When they get a reception like this, it absolutely scares the hell out of them.

“She also draws an analogy between Terfism’s inaccurate insistence on sex as an immutable binary and contemporary nationalism. “‘It’s almost like a nationalism of sex,’ she says of Terfism. ‘At the psychic level, they want strong borders, and they want to make sexuation great again.’”

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

Right-wing censors are now "quiet banning" books that they can't removed legally. Librarians in Chicago have been finding books dealing with race, LGBTQ+ issues or Islam hidden under shelves, in trash cans or otherwise "disappeared." www.chicagotribune.com/2025/02/22/l...

pedo-con theory

This is how to be an ally to the trans community. Also, this isn't just an ex NFL player, he's the first punter ever inducted into the hall of fame.

In case anyone missed it, we have reached the "arrest teachers and librarians" part of the fascism The books in question are largely LGBTQ+ literature and resources. Though any book with sex with it can be targeted. Or rather, the librarian can if a child reads it. This was Page 5 of Project 2025.

is it good if over half of americans think we currently don’t live in a legitimate state?

If you care about having access to your queer Amazon content after this month, you need to do this NOW.

i think it is cool that de facto first consul of the united states is a drug-addled maniac and deadbeat dad with a breeding fetish

It’s time for the Milk Hotel to choose a side

i know it's not what this article is about but tbh i find it much more alarming that there are data brokers monitoring "foot traffic" in major retail stores and selling people's cell phone location data than that giant corporations are reducing the amount they pretend to care about "equity"

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

"Well what if we just get rid of Section 230 and see what happens? What's the worst thing that could happen?" Ask a sex worker. The last time Congress changed Section 230, people died. www.thedailybeast.com/want-to-fix-...

If you live in the NYC Metro Area, help spread the word about the S_onewall Action. Download, Print and Post the Action Flyer everyone in the NYC Metro Area (and don't forget LI, Jersey, Westchester and.. and...) #Stonewall See you on Saturday.

I mean this. When Shillace’s book comes available, everyone should read it. One of the most incredible histories of the rise of fascism in Germany and the trans people who lived there. The stories are incredible and the things she uncovered are indispensable.

1. NEW: Emails exclusively leaked to MadyCast News reveal that a lawyer with the domestic violence nonprofit NNEDV told workers to “unpublish the whole LGBTQIA section,” and to “remove the option for non-binary”. They also removed some resources for immigrants. www.madycast.com/p/domestic-v...

Lol. Lmao

Obviously everyone can't do everything, but if we all do what we can that's great
