My Year of Raves
In my third year of being trans, I discovered that I like dancing. This was a surprise. Dancing is meditative, therapeutic – healing even. Now I try to go dancing as often as I can. This the story of ...

Last year, the universe sent me a message: it told me to start going to queer raves, and so I did.
It’s been a good time!
I wrote a retrospective on 2024, the year I discovered that I like dancing, plus reflections on parenting, music, fascism, fashion, and trans joy:

It's time once again for my annual #treebybike post. This is the 12/19/42 cover of @newyorker.com, so one full year after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This would be the first real Christmas alone, or without a family member, for millions in the US. Gas and tire rationing had begun earlier that year.🗃️

all of the shit about how if you allow people to transition kids are going to be peeing in litter boxes was just the mirror image of the reality: as soon as you enshrine immutable gender difference in law you're going to have legally required Lady Meals For Her

My latest for @breachmedia.ca: When Saskatchewan's government brought in anti-trans laws, unions pushed back.
Right-wing premiers are using the notwithstanding clause to attack their culture-war punching bags. Solidarity between unions and trans advocates in SK shows how to put up a fight.

Right-wing premiers across Canada are using the notwithstanding clause to target trans kids, public sector workers, and people who use drugs with laws that violate their rights.
@desaima.bsky.social writes about how Saskatchewan has shown you can build unlikely alliances to try to stop them.

It’s great that the Finch LRT is finally opening. I just wouldn’t have invited the Grim Reaper to hold the plaque at the launch event.

Every dollar JK Rowling makes from Harry Potter is going into bankrolling an extortion racket issuing legal threats to organizations across the UK to purge themselves of trans people or face ruinous lawfare.
i hope every single person who still buys harry potter merch or engages with that franchise is happy that they're literally making girl guides cry
girl guides uk have been forced very much against their will to exclude trans girls. full statement is here: www.girlguiding.org.uk/information-...

I have written this thread up into a blog post, it has more extensive links to sources & previous conversations about fake content & users on the internet.

Don't trust the human slop telling you how much of the web is AI slop
Is a lot of the web algorithmically created content? Possibly! But don't share the argument that's trying to sell you on creating more fake content.

JK Rowling got a full *decade* of press as a martyr for being "cancelled" (declared passe by people online) and meanwhile nobody considers it very interesting that a prominent left wing author is basically banned from entering or publishing in the United Kingdom for her politics
so this is like, one of the biggest free speech infringements by a western democracy in our lifetimes right?
