the whole project is eugenics and always has been. not one person should be even a little okay with any part of it.

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

no the fuck we are NOT making “LGBQ+” a thing and if I see any of you motherfuckers using that acronym it’s on sight Marsha P. Johnson did not smash in the windshield of a police car for this

"There should be room for those conversations" — OK but why isn't there room for pointing out that it's a moral panic utterly devoid of evidence

I keep thinking about how the misrepresentation of the McDonald's hot coffee lawsuit convinced Americans that it was too easy to sue corporations — a laughable idea if you think about it for 10 seconds. It's the same with trans kids: The scandal is that care is too hard to get, not too easy.

hey, cis folks who followed for call scripts! this is good. communities standing together can help protect trans kids—it’s terrifying for single teachers to stand alone. there’s a doc in shay’s link. copy the alt text—whatever. it’ll take so little time. resisting compliance is actual resistance.

Almost 20 years ago, a doctor on TV was asked, "Isn't 12 a little early for a kid to be deciding to transition?" And her response was, "It's old enough for them to decide that it's not worth living anymore if they can't." That was the only argument I ever needed to hear about gender affirming care.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

It’s fun trying to find that line between “I need to remain vigilant of the horrors afoot” and also “oh no my heart is racing and my jaw is making weird creaky sounds and I can taste pennies.”

History has consistently demonstrated that direct support for authoritarianism is relatively narrow. It thrives through surrender and acquiescence by elite institutions.

hi, cis folks! meet HB28. it's a sports ban on trans athletes. but actually, it's the first step to something much worse—see below. 45 sec call scripts for democrats & republicans in congress follow. if you've been saying you'd stand with trans people, now's the time.🧵 legiscan.com/US/bill/HB28...

Stopping ten-year-old trans kids from playing soccer with their friends is literally the first priority of the new GOP Congress. Hope you don't have any real problems in your life you were hoping they'd help with!
