"my son turned out fine" Ma'am she has a handler and a callsign

@fluxcito.bsky.social Hello! Could I commission you to draw some art of my Lancer pilot?

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Erasing our history won't erase us. Transgender people have always been here — and we always will be.

Incredible news! The Trump administration's under 19 trans care ban has been BLOCKED in federal court via a bench temporary restraining order. The administration CANNOT withhold funds from hospitals providing trans youth care. ACLU statement here:

blinded pilot (traumatically, ritually, self-inflicted, you're never quite sure) that can still see through their mech's sensor suites & remote drone buoys, stitching together a dozen different PoVs at any given time so long as they never stray too far from their mech-self

1. Big win for trans students in New Jersey. In a pair of rulings, an appellate court upheld preliminary injunctions banning the forced outing of trans students. The latest from contributor Mira Lazine. Subscribe to support our journalism. www.erininthemorning.com/p/in-major-w...

I keep talking about a tier list of handler awfulness lately, so let's rank handlers in order of how awful I think they are! (Will need to update as I read more and discover new awful handlers

NEW: A group known as the 'puppygirl hacker polycule' has leaked thousands of police training & policy manuals from departments across the country www.dailydot.com/debug/lexipo...

so many men telling shoujo fans to buy more shoujo when in fact you should maybe look outside of your little data spreadsheets and recognize that shoujo fans are working against the patriarchy that dictates capitalism and social attitudes towards feminine media.

Kendrick Lamar has 22 Grammies and a damn Pulitzer if you don’t know who he is that’s a You problem

they can take over the entire country but they can never actually be cool and it will eat at them forever

NEW — I spoke to a staffer at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) about DOJ's threat to pull funding if the org didn't comply with Trump's DEI executive order, and how org leadership rolled over. "Rather than fight back, we chose to sacrifice trans children," they said.

She's gone! Pamela Paul, according to the intelligencer, is out at the Times this spring due to job cuts at the NYT. She had previously published egregious falsehoods about transgender care and got upset with our outlet Erin In The Morning when challenged. nymag.com/intelligence...

Major breaking trans news: The States of Washington, Minnesota, and Oregon have sued the Trump administration to block it from enforcing a national gender affirming care ban for those under 19 years of age. This is the second major lawsuit over Trump's trans ban EO. Docs to come.

Major breaking trans news: The ACLU has launched a lawsuit on behalf of 7 transgender people affected by Trump’s passport ban. Incredible filing. The Trump admin is now swarmed with lawsuits over discriminatory and illegal executive orders.

Now more than ever.

It's high time we stopped being measured about how we discuss the reactionary panic surrounding trans youth. The conservative position is that parents have a right to abuse their children in any way they wish, and that abuse regarded is righteous and justified if the goal is to prevent transition.

what in the hell is this Youtube

the OTHER thing about the white house’s anti-diversity push is that like old fashioned segregation it is explicitly an effort to undermine unions! like c’mon! don’t be stupid!

Any time you feel like you 'aren't allowed' to start organizing. Any time you feel like you don't have the experience. Any time you feel like you aren't smart or strong or important enough. Any time you have an idea, and that little voice in the back of your head tells you no. Do it anyway.

I'm proud to announce that Erin In The Morning has been nominated for the GLAAD Media Award in Independent Journalism! This is a recognition of the hard work my team and I put in every day to get you the news that matters. Thank you so much for your unending support. We will keep each other safe.

Out of 510,000 NCAA athletes, less than 10 are transgender. They are literally writing an executive order to target less than a hundred people nationwide. Republicans spent over $110 million in anti-trans ads on a made up problem.

Proud to have written a guest column @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket about what the last couple of weeks have felt like as a trans journalist to report on my own civil rights disappearing in real time. www.thehandbasket.co/p/guest-colu...

Hospitals that are cutting off care to trans people under nineteen are the very definition of "complying in advance"—some, as I report in this story, even claiming, incorrectly, that Trump has "prohibited" gender-affirming care. He has not. They are caving. More here: newrepublic.com/article/1910...

California DOE fires back against Trump's executive order: "It does nothing" "It is against federal law for the White House to dictate what educators can and cannot teach" Will not comply.

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

Hospital protests have begun for hospitals that are complying with an executive order banning gender affirming care. The order does NOT have the force of law, but some hospital systems are too scared of trump to defend trans kids in their care. This one at UVA Hospital.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

Montgomery County Public Schools comes out and tells Trump to pound sand with his EO telling schools that they have to discriminate against transgender students. This is how you refuse to comply.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
