The National Park Service eliminated references to transgender people from its Stonewall National Monument web page, removing the “T” in references to LGBTQ+ on the official site for the Greenwich Village monument, which marks a milestone in the fight for gay rights.

Google Calendar has removed key cultural events from their site including: • Pride Month • Black History Month • Holocaust Remembrance Day • Jewish Heritage • Hispanic Heritage • Indigenous People Month

HEADLINE: CDC posts, then deletes, data on bird flu spread between cats and people. The data which appeared fleetingly online on Wednesday, confirmed transmission in two households. It is evident the CDC is being muzzled SO let’s talk about what YOU can do to PROTECT yourself AND your pets. 🧪🧵 ⬇️

people who do this need their lives ruined

so, things are getting really bad for trans ppl in the US, here’s some resources in case you’re considering moving/potentially seek asylum translash.org/articles/tra...

We HAVE to keep fighting. People’s lives depend on it. Things will get worse before it gets better, but savor every win we get, no matter how small.

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Quick note: if you do not drive, you can get an Enhanced State ID with the same privileges. I did so in WA, it was quick and easy. Try to share this in more closed networks if you can.

An anonymous person at the CDC just archived all the public CDC datasets as of 1/28 and uploaded it to archive.org

Please buy her wares. 📸 Bongbongcatcat

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they *literally whispered,* they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.

So what I'm hearing is

Hello Bluesky! We are EGAIR, an organisation fighting for artists' rights and sensible AI regulation in the EU, focused on consent. We're artist-run and have been doing this work since 2022, speaking with lawmakers both in member states and on the EU level. Let's keep at it in the new year! 🎉

The genre boundaries of timely nonfiction can be a bit blurry in current year, but I would personally call this great journalism.

A lot of the actionable advice here for American trans creators really stuck out to me, particularly the warning that we need to stop heavily relying on cloud storage for harboring our works, because those are platforms to which trans folks' access could be rescinded at any time.

reminder: this is the point of the barrage of batshit appointments if you are a tiny bit freaked out by each of them it will add up to “too freaked out to do anything about anything” pick ONE thing at a time to be upset about, decide what action to take on it, then follow through, repeat

If you'd like to consider this, it genuinely is the easiest option for a US citizen to get into the EU. Know that if you do it I will meet you here, whether we know each other yet or not. You will not be alone. Those who can't for any reason: I see you and I love you. Survive and fight like hell.

trans people are always welcome in my space your existence is not a threat to anything but the frail social constructs that restrain self expression and self love

Waking up frozen and starving. I'm down to 12 dollars in both accounts, no sign of a job since October, and I don't have anything to eat amidst 0 degree weather. And to top it off, I need to shell out 600 by month's end. Please help this nonbiney buppydog live. This life has been cruel.

I really don't want to be asking this but I'm in a really fucking shit spot & really needing help. Cant justify taking new comms, been trying to sell things off & stuff isn't moving as fast as I need it to. Bills upcoming, phone service cut, still trying to find employment. ko-fi.com/oddballlion

If this is how it's gonna be

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.

If you're discriminated against or arrested for being trans in Illinois, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected].

Tr*mp already playing EVERYONE by making a private deal with the asshole TikTok CEO Still, TikTok remains a place to share information and communicate more efficiently than Twitter or Insta… but for how long is what I’d like to know…. This has “new terms of service” written all over it

This had been what's bothered me so much about the "just have your own space!" advice, especially in recent days. You *should* have your own site but someone has to know your space exists to visit. To ignore social media's role in that is to ignore the habits of people & their content consumption.
