Any trans person who begins their transition today is exhibiting more courage than most people will in their entire lives.

No lies. He has been transformative…in the more shitty inhumane way.
What does Canada gain by speaking the unvarnished truth in this situation? Nothing.

"It feels like we're fighting fascism." I write about how an anti-DEI law in Oklahoma is causing one of its universities to cancel a theater production, how students are fighting back, and how arts censorship is growing in the U.S. Times like these, small acts of resistance becomes more important

An Oklahoma state law that prohibits equity, diversity, and inclusion has forced the University of Central Oklahoma to start cancelling its productions.

Welp. First day of teaching, and I just realized I taught a whole damn course with my pants on backwards. 🤦 Thankfully I don't think anyone noticed.

Sinners and KPop Demon Hunters exist in the same universe.

At least that's what feels true to me. So I'm imposing my head canon on reality.

I got caught completely flat footed during a therapy session today for the first time in years. To the point where the client asked to reschedule for when I was more prepared.

it was humbling, embarrassing and an important reminder that I can't sit on my laurels. I can and should do better.

Well, that was possibly the most drawn out and expensive drunk driving conviction I've ever seen.

Glad she's not serving time, but still.

Must read on fighting segregation in the workplace.
"Your trans colleagues are receiving emails from their bosses saying that they have to use segregated facilities because they’re frightened of getting sued.

"You have to be able to present those bosses with something scarier than the anti-trans legal budget."

Homeland Security is fast-tracking immigrants to deportation by dismissing their cases in immigration court, which allows ICE agents to immediately take them into custody. Many don't have lawyers and had filed for asylum, fearing for their safety should they be sent back apnews.com/article/immi...
Immigration officers intensify arrests in courthouse hallways on a fast track to deportation
Large-scale arrests outside immigration courts have unleashed fear among asylum-seekers and immigrants who are accustomed to remaining free while judges grind through a backlog of 3.6 million cases.

Antisemitism ruins pro-democracy organizing, which is probably a reason Putin is so invested in promoting it.

Spending too much on a fancy drink while for the doors to open at the Mirvish to see Beetlejuice. It's my early birthday present to myself, so I might as well live it up.

Simone Biles caved after a few hours of receiving the kind of abuse trans people face every single day. She immediately backed down and apologized to heinous bigots.

We don't have the luxury of moving on. Cis people can just dip out after they face the slightest pushback.
Lol. She fucking apologized to Riley Gaines.

I knew staying out of praising her for the weakest of allyship while partially throwing trans people under the bus was the right choice.
