If people really believed that you needed to engage on conservative-dominated platforms to be effective they’d be active on Truth Social, Rumble, and Kick. They are not. They just don’t like X as much anymore and they want it to be your fault

Hollywood can't find a trans actor to play a trans person, or a Jewish actor to play a Jewish person... but they CAN cast a masked guy as a masked guy.

"People who have never engaged in anything like these actions before are purposefully running toward the trouble. As much as their resistance can appear organic & spontaneous...it’s supported by deliberate effort, an infrastructure working to help them expand their tolerance for taking risks." ❤️👇
ICE and CBP, among others, have violently retaliated against ICE Watch in part because the agencies correctly understand what many do not: Organized neighbors are mounting an effective defense, and an organized movement is a formidable adversary. My new feature: newrepublic.com/article/2042...
Inside Chicago’s Neighborhood ICE Resistance
Residents have organized a formidable network to protect immigrant communities from Trump’s brutal deportation program. Their efforts are making a genuine difference.

Online age verification isn't like showing ID at a bar. It's more invasive, affects far more transactions, and poses serious privacy, security, and free speech risks that in-person checks never do. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Passing this on from folks who are not on Bluesky: If you're in NYC, Bluestockings is having a final closing sale.

Come celebrate and grieve the closing of the store, and the sunset of Bluestockings Cooperative.

Books, appliances, merchandise, furniture-- everything is going.

Take it from a pro: There are lies, damned lies, and Pornhub's keyword "analysis."
Guys just a reminder that if one person in Vermont searched for "jockstrap" and no one else in any other state did then it could show up on this list, no matter what anyone else in Vermont searched for. "Relative" is doing a lot of work in these stats breakdowns.
yo vermont, everything ok?

And all of it for... a McDonalds ad. A SEASONAL McDonalds ad.
The company behind the mcdonalds ad:

Imagine taking more time than it would take to do something traditionally. I bet it would take a builder longer to build a house out of jelly instead of brick, because jelly isn't brick.

You can often tell a journalist’s or publication’s political stance by how they frame the story.

“Trans people turn to alternative sources to retain access to treatment”

vs

“Trans people turn to black market to obtain illegal hormone”
A lot of journalists are writing stories about DIY now and I don't trust any of them not to scaremonger about it to build support for crackdowns. I've refused requests for interviews on this. Do not talk to the media about DIY.
Trans people need to be careful about talking about DIY. Yes talk about it in the general sense, quote the facts and figures but be careful. Don't give away sources to cis folks. Don't talk to journalists about the details. They're coming for it.

If anyone reading the latest @ohjoysextoy.bsky.social comic about using progestin-only pills to get rid of your period is thinking, "Hmm, sounds interesting!" I have some cool news: in the US you can get POPs over the counter, they're sold as Opill (opill.com).

Are you on T but still getting your period every month? Then this comic might be for you! Talking to my endocrinologist really set me on the right path of taking a progestin-only pill that finally too...

🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

Big companies can afford to implement age verification technology or tackle million-dollar liability lawsuits. Indie producers and individual performers can't. How these laws blocking adult content online are hurting queer workers in the adult industry: 19thnews.org/2025/09/age-...

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
