People:

I have absolutely no problem blocking idiots of every stripe.

If you show up in my feeds or replies being an asshat, you're gone.

Idgaf about followers or number of likes.

If you can't handle me or what I have to say, get out or get tossed out.

I'm feeling a bit... I dunno... cheated? When I had my meeting with my surgeon, she didn't show me any sample labia or color swatches or anything.

I mean... hey... happy to not have to see that on top of everything else... but it kinda of stood out that this mainline of hate in their circles... the thing that consumes them and gets hundreds of millions spent... wasn't mentioned at all. Guess cuz there's no need to confine it to secret chats.

Hey... Politico...

Are you seriously telling us there was no anti-trans hate in all of those messages...

Or just that you didn't think that was worth mentioning?

Men who refer to themselves as boys would be your first clue.

He means trans people. Centrists ALWAYS mean trans people when they say "the extreme left".

Your State Attorney General should enforce State non-discrimination laws.

Your Governor should withhold State funding from institutions that violate State non-discrimination laws.

One hopes the Massachusetts AG will respond the same way the MIchigan AG did.

"This violates state law. Get your shit together."

It's also intimidating to have a 7 foot tall figure, even an absurd one, confront you, even if you're heavily armed, while offsetting that intimidation in a de-escalating manner by making clear the point that being intimidated is itself silly.

It self-shames the goons without setting them off.

Oh look, Gavin Newsom harming trans folk as much as he thinks he can get away with without affecting his polls too much...

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.

Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

Your periodic reminder that "biological sex" is a propaganda term spread by anti-trans groups, largely pushed by Christian Nationalists orgs like Alliance Defending Freedom; Family Resource Council & Family Policy Alliance; and the Heritage Foundation.

Have had a number of cis friends assume I would be entertained by them, and suggest places that have them as a place to go to dinner or something.

No. No Thank you.

"The Inflatables Uprising" sounds like a synopsis of a Pixar film, not a political opposition... but here we are.

I still have the house phone number we grew up with 60+ years ago permanently etched in memory, no less than the names of my siblings.

Do a press release about how you justify *once again* voting for a bill that strips trans people of their rights and health care.

"Tadpoles is transition!!!!"

MelodyMP @melodymp.bsky.social · 1d

Democrats are making the case that 2 million Americans will lose their health care if the subsidies don't pass.

There are approx 3 million transgender Americans who will lose our health care if all you get are these subsidies and don't remove the anti-trans riders on the budget.

We count too.

MelodyMP @melodymp.bsky.social · 1d

And I am specifically, though you probably won't hear it, talking to all you "normies" out there, because that's who Maron and Obama are talking to.

I know they are not particularly talking with/to trans people, for instance.

That would be a different convo. Which absence is part of the problem.

MelodyMP @melodymp.bsky.social · 1d

Clears that up. Thank you :)
