It’s wild how much trans women are stigmatized for engaging in behavior that’s seen as completely normal in cis women

a terf told me taking bathroom selfies means i have autogynephilia. which made me honestly so sad that this woman had never enjoyed her own appearance and couldn't understand anyone else doing it

The ‘Transit’ gender clinic in Spain has a 3 WEEK waiting list! 😳😳😳

It covers a population of 8 million, (equivalent to the population of Scotland & Wales combined, or 1/7th of the population of England) It has a total of 43 staff, a majority of whom are part-time, working 6-7 hours per week!

Trans health waiting lists are a political choice

I’m just back from an awesome trans healthcare conference in Norway (blog on that to follow). Here I wanted to share information from a presentation by the founder of the transit trans health…

I've been thinking that too but just recently set up a new Apple device and the syncing between two adjacent devices for quick data transfer and device setup is pretty convenient. but still, that's 1 thing and from multiple years ago

"well what are the Democrats supposed to do" I don't know! They're supposed to know! I'm not the one who sought and obtained a political position that would require me to know what to do when the ruling party attempts to install the President as a dictator!

The biggest takeaway from this graph is that six of the seven most unpopular prime ministers since records began are *the last six prime ministers we've had*

Does this look like the politics of a functional democracy?

with the authoritarianism and Unitarian executive theory they're pushing, I'm curious if even supporting impeachment of the president would qualify as wanting to overthrow the government

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

A man gets a blowjob from a trans woman and his friends make fun of him so he goes to the police to claim she lied about being a woman. She was convicted of sexual assault and sentenced to nearly 2 years in prison because of a man's shame.

I’m not leaving immediately, but Bluesky deciding to ban & then slander Link because he politely spoke out about transphobia is a very clear signal for me about where the priorities & political alignments of this platform’s leadership are now pointing.

the most recent active users number I can find was "under 200,000" years and years ago and someone who I guess determined it was like 900 DAU, but even that was a while ago. no one's gonna go in on the metaverse, it's not happening, it's like, entirely dead

Daily bunny no.3103 wants to show off their collection

A bunny with thick glasses shows another bunny their room, which is full of colorful mushrooms being cultivated both around the room and in a drawer. The other bunny looks mildly grossed out. There is also a poster showing different mushroom species on the wall
