Closested Crisis 🏳️‍⚧️ @closetedcrisis.bsky.social · Aug 12

Hey I'm Jazz (at least that's the name I want to try out) and a couple of months ago my egg cracked and now I'm stuck in the closet. So I'm going to explore my gender the only way I know how to... through silly comics and venting on the internet!

#comic

Panel 1: a woman standing in the center with the words *EGG CRACKING NOISES* on top

Panel 2: the woman says HOLY CRAP! I THINK I MIGHT BE A TRANS GIRL!!! CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T REALIZED SOONER!

Panel 3: a random guy says THAT'S GREEEEAAAAATTTT...

Panel 4: the guy pushes a button and the woman falls

Panel 5: the woman falls into a dark room

Panel 6: the words WELCOME TO THE CLOSET appear in bright neon lights and the woman says YAY...

Time to contact your senators and tell them how unacceptable this is and that our rights aren't negotiable!

Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com · 7h

The Senate has just passed the military NDAA containing 2 anti-trans provisions: a surgery ban using federal funds (dependents too), and a sports ban on military academy spaces.

This will be the STARTING point for negotiations with the House, which has even worse provisions.

Only 20 Dems opposed.

Trying out the Time Strangers demo finally. Might get the full game soon

I'm glad the game allows you to change outfits because I was kinda upset that the male protag got to look like Cyborg 009 while the female protag looks like a flight stewardess

1. A new journal report in the prestigious Medical Journal of Australia eviscerates the Cass review, saying it is filled with fallacies and launders anti-trans disinformation.

It methodically goes through each problem in the review.

The latest from S. Baum.

“Transgender people are here to stay.” Should be our new slogan. If only we had that AI money, we could get every popular moron to say it.

It's SO GOOD!! It's a really strong first outing for Satoshi Kon. All 4 of his films are bangers imo!

I will warn you that this is the darkest one out of the 4 he's made

I cannot express to you how urgent it is that we all loudly and constantly support queer media right now. It is my number one goal for this year, to support and promote as many queer artists as possible.

Would I spend a $100 on one of my all time favorite movies that isn't Godzilla? Only time will tell

Also this movie gives me gender envy and I don't know if that's a good or bad thing

this is an explicitely nazi administration and anyone who still supports them should be viewed as such

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

Joy is just as important as survival.

The world might be cruel, but that doesn’t mean you should only exist in a state of struggle.

You deserve laughter, comfort, adventure and love.

Seek out things that make you happy, no matter how small.

I don't plan on telling my family that I'm trans until I've moved out and financially independent from them because my family has expressed a lot of transphobia and it has been exasperated in recent years

I believe it's very likely I'll lose my relationship to all my blood relatives when I come out

1. In a devastating new Pew Research Survey, only 3 in 10 transgender adults report being accepted by their parents.

And only 1 in 10 say they are accepted by their extended family.

This is the lowest number ever found in surveys asking similar questions.

The survey comes as transgender people experience a legal assault from the far-right in the United States.

Complete coincidence that I shared a comic about my younger self's desire to be a lesbian on international lesbian day lol

Tbh, I'm not sure if I'm comfortable calling myself a lesbian just yet since I'm still pre-transition, but I think lesbians are cool and would like to try to be one someday

CW: Mentions Depression

An actual thought/fantasy I had when I was a young teen

Panel 1: A depressed teen thinks to himself "If I were to fake my death and get a new identity, I would get a sex change and become a lesbian"

Panel 2: thought continues "That way no one would know it was me"

Panel 3: a girl looks concerned

Panel 4: the girl says "Y'know... that might not've been a very cis thought in hindsight"

Decided to jump into the Dead Domain stream and I entered the right time for them to be talking about kaiju films and the Gamera trilogy especially. As a big kaiju/toku nerd I feel truly blessed

Dear White Democrats:

The word you're looking for is GENOCIDE. That's what Israel is doing. You won't spontaneously combust if you call evil by its name. It feels good to have a spine.

Sincerely,

Conversion therapy can't turn anyone cis or straight. But what it CAN do is torture and abused kids to where they're afraid to come out, or worse. What the supreme court is deciding is whether or not to make torturing queer kids again under the guise of "religious freedom"

This will kill people

Conversion therapy isn't "voluntary" for children when their parents are the ones deciding to do it.

It’s very cool how “if the government gives everyone a little bit of money, everything gets way better by almost every metric” has been proven multiple times and yet the government hasn’t given me money.

Cis people aren't angry enough about the conversion therapy case for my taste.

They'll legalize it, and then States will pass laws requiring it, and that will be how they try to exterminate us.

1. A new poll shows that Virginia voters prefer Democratic Governor candidate Abigail Spanberger's approach to trans issues over Republican Earle-Sears by a wide margin.

She's ahead 10 points in the race now, and voters prefer her 50-37 on trans issues.
