I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence.
This is a campaign of eradication.

Fuck Gavin Newsom. I’m so sick of people jettisoning trans people from their platforms to court bigots to their side. #transequalitynow #transrightsarehumanrights #transwomenarewomen

The amount Musk and Trump are boasting about regarding federally funded research aimed at studying health outcomes in transgender people (the $8 million)? Just out of the research grant budget for the U.S., it would be the equivalent of if you had a $10,000 budget and spent 86 cents on something.

I just spoke to a rep from Bernie Moreno’s office who told me, “Medicaid is not getting cut, anyone who needs Medicaid will get it” but when I asked where the $880 billion tax cut was coming from he just repeated the quote to me like a parrot over and over again Call your senators Demand a town hall

I mean, are we just numb to the insanity ? The president of the United States yesterday called for arresting American students protesting at campuses (they pay to attend) 😂

Watched Sugarcane tonight. The atrocities committed against indigenous children by the Catholic Church is entirely revolting, and the lack of accountability and justice too. Required watching. The struggle is intersectional, no one is free until we are all free from white supremacy.
Watching 𝘚𝘶𝘨𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘦 (2024), once again it beggars belief that the Catholic Church has not been held accountable for its many crimes across the world and has been allowed to flourish into the 21st Century.
It should have been terminated last Century. Along with all the others. #Disney+

We are here and we’re not going anywhere. Our queer forbearers were beat and arrested and harassed and murdered by cops and citizens alike, we won’t go back.

I am reading a lot right now, but the book that I’m currently reading isn’t so much escapist as literary historical/contemporary fiction, and I find that it’s not helping as much. How do y’all find the mental space to read literary fiction and escape at the same time?

On trying to make it as a trans girl of color in the heart of the empire.
As a queer person who experienced homelessness for 6 mos in my early twenties and had few resources during those years to help me survive + loads of trauma, I relate hard.
