been on a much needed vacation. still been tough not to get overwhelmed at times, but I'd forgotten how much relaxing and rest is genuinely important. hope you're well, friends 💜

I've been able to stay somewhat grounded recently, but reading this broke me. to have finally found some peace being diagnosed late with autism and ADHD, after a decade of depression and pain...only to be told by this admin that I'm as dire a threat as cancer. nightmarish and beyond upsetting

I'm becoming incredibly concerned that a lot of people are so focused on their personal ire at Trump that they have no idea what Musk is doing

if you're fine with leaving people to starve and suffer because they live in "red states," you are genuinely evil and you do not care about marginalized people

I mean this with full offense: if you use shit like "LGBQ+", you are ignorant of, indifferent to, or actively hostile towards queer history; go away. queer history does not exist without trans people, and trying to erase them speaks volumes to how you view queerness in general

I am going to give some advice and then I am going to log off and adhere to it--because I am notorious for giving great advice and promptly ignoring it. 1) Get a website 2) Put content on it 3) Link it everywhere you can

from a psychosociology angle this makes a lot of sense!! the brain prunes lesser used connections, which allows for filtering stimuli— which could include how the brain visually processes patterns, perception in a more abstract sense. I really hope there's more research on this soon!

We either grit our teeth, scale up our mutual aid, + brace to lose so many people to dungeons, exile, murder, and suicide, or we hit the streets so fucking hard we enter The Cool Zone, which will also require us scaling up our mutual aid, so, scaling up our mutual aid is a good call for right now

there is a direct line from gamergate to Elon Musk controlling the federal government. I wish I were being even remotely hyperbolic but they've been using the exact same intimidation and harassment tactics

In my queer life, I have found that most "allies" are actually bystanders. They're cheering for you from the sidelines, but they're never going to risk actually joining you on the field. Their support ends as soon as it might affect them.

I've seen a lot of "Canada please save us" posts and I want to say: Canada is not some political utopia! there has been a quickly rising right wing wave there for years— and much of the rhetoric stems right from the US. no country is immune to authoritarianism, it has to be fought everywhere!

May 6th, 1933: the Institute of Sexology in Berlin is looted. they had not just trailblazing work on trans healthcare, but also provided medical care for trans patients. every single book was burned 4 days later. hmd.org.uk/resource/6-m... we are here again, and there's a lot more they could burn

during times of authoritarianism, you can't give in to nihilism; let yourself feel grief and despair, but it has to be led by genuine hope and a clear head. all of this is terrifying. it's also a deeply pathetic power grab by pathetic people, and we will be okay. all of these things can be true!

There are gonna be disabled folks who can't contribute anything to The Cause. They have no money, no energy, no physical ability, no time. They will need to receive and will never be able to give back. You gotta save them, too. Especially them.

I want to be blunt about something: your data is not precious. you can't hide data they already have. but...you are important. you are not data, your words and experiences matter. take stock of how you want to keep those things safe, because they will use everything they have against us

when I signed up for healthcare late last year, I didn't even see the marketplace, I was automatically enrolled in Medicaid because of my income level this is, without exaggeration, what systemic murder looks like. to take away all options for the marginalized to stay alive is state violence

not going to quote directly but if this isn't reputation destroying I don't know what is. afaik ChatGPT literally does not have real time information so this is beyond useless! this is like the exact opposite of journalism. asking a computer about a hypothetical while reality burns around us

gonna be honest, I'm incredibly relieved I decided against grad school this year. I absolutely hate that all my fears were confirmed, but the writing was on the wall the day election results came out. academia is going to be under siege for at least the next 4 years

alright this is where intersectionality becomes genuinely important trans people in this country are American workers, and seniors, and part of unions! there's no distraction, working class trans people need protection too, all trans people do! what are you talking about!!

seeing a lot of folks talking about how conservative "pornography" bans are a pretense/prelude to targeting any & all queer or trans art, which is absolutely true also: banning & criminalizing actual honest-to-god porn is fascist in itself. say that too!

fascism has been described as a suicide cult and we're reaching a tipping point. they will, quite literally, destroy everything to attempt an impossible, fictional standard of moral purity. please check in on the people in your life. taking care of each other is what we have right now

to all my trans and queer friends: it will get easier. "better" is going to be hard to come by for a while, but day by day it will get easier. even if you feel broken down at the end of the day, I promise you, you can build yourself right back up each and every morning. you're not alone. 💚
