Parent of an AFAB boy.
He has always been a boy.
Just trying to figure out how to navigate a transphobic world that I never really knew existed until it started hating my son. I see you and you are beautiful and strong.

Important when reading the Jack Smith transcript to remember what powerful videos these would have been, had Jim Jordan followed precedent and done this publicly instead of hiding the ball and failing to commit to a public hearing.

Transphobia is just one of many instances in which the ‘look at the USA’ defence doesn’t work. Transphobes were thoroughly beaten back in the US, whence they retreated to focus their efforts on a more pliant and reactionary UK, then used their victories here to buttress transphobia there.

Yup....
MTG is not standing up for liberal democracy, she is frustrated by having to have a subservient position in a hierarchy. She is not against Trump, she is angry that she doesn't get to be Trump right now

Of the approximately 300,000 trans kids in the US between the ages of 13-17, only about 1,000 of them get access to HRT in any given year.

If I had one Christmas wish it would be that cis people see trans people as their brothers and sisters, children and parents. They could be any of us, they are all of us.

I’m an unremarkable person. A history of successes and failures behind me. I’m flawed. But I love all my children. All of them.

This would not have passed if those chickenshit Dems Davis, Cellar, and Gonzalez had not voted for it. They voted to put the parents of trans youth in prison for ten years.

Primary them all.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.

3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.

4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.

It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.

Story to come.

#bakesehymes
In this digital age
Of limitless connection
We lose ourselves
Amidst reflections of
Hallucinated realities
Ghostly Manifestations
Paint the simulation
With fantasies
We never dreamed
The Nightmarish Seductions
Of Silicon Gods

Humanity has forgotten
The precept of Apollo
Know Thyself
