@juliaserano.bsky.social doing excellent reporting debunking the “social contagion” myth pushed by anti-trans reactionaries.

Saying "ICE, Border Patrol, and DHS must pay for their grave sins against the country" would have made people nervously look at their feet and shuffle away at a party a few years ago but now grandma will do shots with you if you say this stuff.

Cannot be stressed enough that Black trans women were immediately sidelined in the early 2020s. Just pushed out of the convo immediately, even though transmisogynoir has always been an emergency and Black trans women are disproportionately targeted
Read this piece I contributed to in 2017. This piece, talking with the friends and families of murdered Black trans women, still haunts me to this day.

Pieces like this are just not printed anymore.

Rest in power
So far in 2017, 21 trans people have been reported as murdered. These are their life stories.

It's wild how anti-Chinese propaganda leaks into even science news about Tiangong station. I saw some U.S. scientists were expressing "grave concerns" about the astronauts on Tiangong waiting an extra week to leave.

We stranded some astronauts for half a year I don't think we get to say shit!

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

I talk to a lot of trans BlueSky casually and it always feels so weird when two people I really like intensely hate each other over things neither of them believe

Do these people have any other talking points than "Muslim=bad"?

They're doing the "transing the gay away" conspiracy theory with an Islamophobic twist.

China has banned calling your car self-driving when it isn't, a ban on slick door handles that don't work in emergencies is in the works, and now it's coming for rapid 0-60 times, as it seeks to destroy every last one of Tesla's "innovations."

I do think that the rise of political contronyms--"antisemitic," and "woke" being most famous, but others are squirming to emerge, like "sexist"--is a deliberate strategy.

Not to get all conspiracy-y on you all.
Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

It's wild how homophobic liberals get when they think doing it against a shitty person allows them to be fully masked off like your queer friends (if you have any left) see exactly the type of language you are using

She's hotter than your AI tho.
You wouldn't know my AI tool, she's from Canada.
Heh I just saw a LinkedIn post arguing that we definitely know workplace AI is so much more capable than we think because of COURSE the companies that are having massive productivity gains are keeping details of their AI use under wraps in order to maintain a competitive advantage.
