Kudos for these women for standing up and doing the right thing but they're trying to ban trans women from e-sports now? Absolutely ridiculous.

After the heavy fees and awful currency exchange, I had to adjust the goal accordingly. It's... um... a little worse than I expected. So please, any help is incredibly appreciated. I have until December 31st to pay it in full or I'll have to pay 277 USD more.

Brett Kavanaugh sees no problem with this woman being forced to do this every day for the rest of her life
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”

The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.

It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.

Hardly any of them, I suspect.

Kash Patel is exactly right saying, "When you attack American citizens, when you attack our institutions of legislation, when you attack our nation's Capitol, you attack the very being of our way of life." But he's a complete complicit idiot willfully ignoring the fascist attacking our way of life.

continuing to make calls. I called my reps and alongside demanding they oppose all of these bills (and explaining in detail why), I also advocated for putting these bills through MORE committee meetings in order to continue debating them, rather than fast track such dangerous legislation
#SaveSpeech

The House Committee Meeting was heavily in favor of these various censorship/surveillance bills

We need now, more than ever, to counter the rhetoric that these bills are "popular" and demand our reps oppose them!

This is a terrible story--both because of the trap that was set (either in advance or ret-conned to seize a moment) for this graduate student but also because the student's department failed her. The 1st problem is easy to see, but I want to explain the 2nd one. 1/x
btw, every "reasonable" person who's own posting stuff like "well, the prompt was unclear," or "she actually kind of did the assignment OK so maybe the TA overreacted"--you are also part of the problem! You're laundering the deliberate targeting of a TA and a blatant abrogation of academic freedom!
This thread is 💯. Labor precarity in academia means the evisceration of faculty governance and academic freedom, opening the door to administrative purges of the most vulnerable. And faculty-esp tenured faculty and academic leaders-who aren't defending their trans colleagues are enabling it.

"“My hope is that the message that the transgender community gets from this is not one of betrayal, but is one of our desire to continue to maintain those friendships and that support,...when that anger subsides the transgender community will know that we stand with them."

Nope, it's betrayal.

They’re describing it as a “shock and awe” campaign, which is why it’s essential to show them there’s huge opposition NOW. Call / email your reps to let them know you oppose censorship bills like KOSA and the SCREEN.

Read up and get involved in the @fightforthefuture.org Week of Action.
With SCREEN Act and KOSA on the legislative block this week, there couldn't be a better time for Fight's "Stop Online ID Checks" Week of Action.

It won't end with porn. It will end with PayPros refusing to process payments for content containing speech they do not agree with.
I logged into my Fakku account and can confirm the tags “incest,” “tentacles,” “milf,” “loli,” “shota,” and “forced” lead to the following page. The notice regarding payment processing is obviously worrying. I reached out to Jacob to see if he can give any insight. More updates in this thread
