CIS ALLIES SHUT UP AND LEARN A SINGLE THING CHALLENGE
I sometimes get the impression that people believe trans men to be at less risk of transphobic violence than they actually are.
By dint of being trans, both trans men and women are prone to being degendered and constructed as a predatory, sexual threat to women, against whom violence is justified.

I think people saying trans men should use women's public toilets to make a point should realise what they're asking trans men to risk.

When it comes to conservative politics, even when attempting to hold it accountable to its own precedents, we must not ever expect any consistency.
There is a logic to these actions, but it is a reactionary, punitive logic. The logic states that we are lesser, and must always be put in our place.

This is explicitly what they want to do to ban even social transition for trans youth. Tell them that their lives will be so terrible and ruined that they can't be allowed to transition. That's the goal, make trans life so unbearable we cease existing. But we can't and we won't.

I still haven’t even really interest in my resume since being laid off a year ago.
I don’t get calls back. I have warm introductions that lead to email runarounds. I have recruiters submit my resume and then I get nothing.
I am eating my retirement to survive now. Idk what happens when I’m out

It also means (@lollardfish.bsky.social has ably written about this) that you as a parent are forced to concentrate on and narrate your child's difficulties just to get them what they need, which is damaging to your child and your relationship with them.

There's a couple reasons so many IWW songs are set to the tunes of hymns and one is that the Salvation Army Band would show up and try to stop workers organizing by playing hymns to drown out speeches, so the Wobblies came up with words so they could sing along. SA has been trash all along.
It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Trans people are outlaws, in the precise and technical sense that we are beyond the law’s protection. We might successfully stay alive for a little while, but all it takes is for one person to come after us and then all legal and institutional protections vanish instantly.

KOSA is never about protecting kids. It’s anti-queer and about making sure kids don’t have access to information they need to survive - from health basics to knowing they are not alone and not broken. And it will destroy the internet as we know it.
🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

one insidious thing about gen AI is it's not just causing us to mistrust dodgy images, it's also making us mistrust images that look perfectly normal. this is gaslighting in a very literal sense bc the technology is undermining the trust we have in our own ability to perceive reality!

It really is precisely the inverse of how much work you actually are doing
The numbers in here are hilarious.
Do you use AI on the job?
Execs: 87%
Managers: 57%
Workers: 27%
Planned investment by 2030: $5T
"Necessary" annual revenue to justify that spend: $650B
Current annual revenue: $50B

you have to be able to look bad faith in the eye and say absolutely not, even if that bad faith is coming from the highest levels of government

this is just rank cowardice, the student very obviously disregarded the instructions and the assignment to antagonize her peers and instructors and provoke this exact reaction, society simply can’t function when the people in charge scurry like kicked dogs every time some troll bully says boo
