Hey. Even if you avoid politics & news like the plague, VOTE. Even if there isn't a candidate you believe is the answer to all our woes (they don't exist), VOTE. Respect the fights that women and POC had to go through to achieve the right to vote. RESPECT THE STRUGGLE & respect your people. VOTE.
I have limited social media bandwidth, so most of my energy will go to my new account, @moderngoblin.bsky.social, where I do my best to connect groups, to unite and fight against colonialism, fascism, racism, and the rest of the bullshit. JOIN ME.

"Since 1973, 11 abortion providers and clinic staff have been murdered, and 26 others have survived attempted murder. There have been 42 bombings, 206 arson attacks, more than 600 cases of assault and battery against abortion clinic staff, and four kidnappings. Abortion providers ... fear violence."
In the two years since Roe was overturned, there were more than 750 cases of obstruction of a clinic, nearly 300 death threats or threats of harm, and more than 600 cases of trespassing.
Abortion Providers Have Faced Hundreds of Death Threats Since Roe’s Fall
A chilling report on the spike in violence against abortion providers should concern us all.

This is what trans bathroom bans do.

Femmy-looking trans women (like me) sail through. It’s cis women with short hair and non-gender-conforming presentation who get harassed.

There's already comments on this saying stuff like "if the family's okay with it, I don't see the problem"

Let me lay it out for you. The judge used it to factor in his ruling for sentencing. That's the problem. Doesn't matter if he's guilty, not guilty. FAKE BULLSHIT WAS USED AS EVIDENCE
"It was the first time in Arizona judicial history — and possibly nationwide — that AI has been used to create a deceased victim’s own impact statement"

So, local cops conducted a warrantless search of Luigi's backpack, realized they screwed up, admitted it on camera, put the backpack in a patrol car NOT sealed in an evidence bag (an 11 minute drive with no bodycam footage available), then searched the backpack again at the station and "found" a gun

"[T]he civil rights movement, labor movement, and other historic struggles are filled with people breaking the law to demand more. Reforms and legislative gains currently being stripped away came from people fighting by any means necessary to achieve change."

Another way out: Doing what’s right isn't all about what’s legal
Overemphasizing what’s legal and illegal is about returning to a normal where the screams were more easily muffled, distant, and ignorable for many

The NHS is removing moral personhood and bodily autonomy from autistic people and trans people. This is part of an agenda of extermination for both autistic people and trans people. This is only going to get worse until it's stopped.
The UK is a fascist state with the pretence of democracy.

Autism is not a disease. Being trans is not a disease. Neither need cured. Leave us the fuck alone!!

"Authoritarianism relies on your fear. It feeds on the silence that it tries to instill in you through that fear. But here's the thing- fear doesn't have to make you quiet. It can also make you scream your fucking head off. If all of us are screaming at once, that's powerful."
