When your choices are "Crab or Lobster" but you have a shellfish allergy. No amount of people yelling, "but the lobster is overcooked" will get you to eat the crab.

I said it openly to friends living in England because we just happened to be meeting up shortly after the election was called for Labour and I swear to Christ they were not listening to me when I said this will be a disaster as they just wanted the Tories gone

Boy am I smug now!
entirely predictable.

a lot of ppl seem shocked that starmer's government is as far right as it is and it's largely bcos they ignored the transphobia. im never gonna stop banging that drum. 'gender critical' is far right pap. anybody suckered in by it is going to be a horrendous person.

As a trans journalist, let me underscore: That Onion headline's fucking hilarious, in part because this situation's so endlessly grim. I appreciate that somebody else in media bothers to dunk on the Times about their own devotion to persecution of my community.

Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups.

This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.

i think we can afford to have higher standards for those we raise to federal congress for 6 years

People can grow, but not all people deserve to be senators.

And wearing a death's head totenkopf for nearly 20 years is one of those disqualifying things. Either cause you knew, or were too ignorant

A lot of journalists are writing stories about DIY now and I don't trust any of them not to scaremonger about it to build support for crackdowns. I've refused requests for interviews on this. Do not talk to the media about DIY.
Trans people need to be careful about talking about DIY. Yes talk about it in the general sense, quote the facts and figures but be careful. Don't give away sources to cis folks. Don't talk to journalists about the details. They're coming for it.

You can often tell a journalist’s or publication’s political stance by how they frame the story.

“Trans people turn to alternative sources to retain access to treatment”

vs

“Trans people turn to black market to obtain illegal hormone”

Michael Anton is a dedicated fascist and leading light of the dark enlightenment. He also leaves snarky reviews on fashion websites. I guess he’s in charge of our foreign policy now. Which means, among other things, that our government is being run by exactly the kind of bureaucrat that he despises.

The only surefire way to stop oligarchs buying up the things we love is to drop those things the moment oligarchs buy them & that requires changing habits and massive self-discipline.
It means going to alternatives that might not be quite as good or convenient.
It’s really hard. But there it is.

Opponents had flipped a debate on legal protections to one on the safety of women and girls and resuscitated anxieties dating back to at least the early 19th century. Over the next decade, the proposal of anti-trans laws across the country jumped from dozens per year to more than 1,000.

We're just the latest group of many to be targeted in this way — which is intentionally cruel and is about also creating a larger permission structure for bullying us from the rest of public life.

If it hasn't been said, I'll say it: No woman of color would ever be defended in this "she's just a smol bean" fashion & many Black, Latina, Asian & Indigenous women have had their lives & careers destroyed for nothing, or for far, far less. Same goes for trans women. These are just fucking facts.
Possibly the only thing more freakish than Nuzzi's prose is the contortions her defenders twist themselves into. "She's not just hot, but she definitely is hot, while also being a vulnerable smol child. Also, criticizing her is sexist."

The Trump administration has made the targeting of trans people one of its top priorities, while legacy media treat it as an afterthought, a side-story of the second Trump term.

Assigned Media is committed to finding as many of the stories that would slip through the cracks as possible.

I know people want to frame everything through the most villainous and monstrous political entity of the 20th century, but the second Trump regime and the Republican Party architecture that supports it are best understood as a neo-Confederate project.
