Call your senators and your house rep.
Make a stink by being clear that abandoning trans adults and children is a no-go.
Cis people, call and be loud for us. We are tired.

1. Trump has dug in on anti-trans provisions in the shutdown fight this morning, cancelling a meeting with Dems unless they cave on trans people.

His post to Truth Social is a clear indication that Republicans are making targeting trans people a priority.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.

Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.

Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.

Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

This is a really, really good article. I highly recommend it

More than anything, though, fascists set up real-life trolley problems to get people to agree to their horrific premises: that there must be people tied to the trolley tracks, that the trolley must run down the tracks no matter who is killed, that talking about the horrors that ensue is an offense against civility greater than the horrors themselves; that rescuing people from death is more dangerous to a properly ordered society than is condemning them to death; that stopping the trolley or fouling the track is a violent crime in a way that running people over with a train car is not. Fascists set up real-life trolley problems because it gives them a framework and justification for removing all options that a sensible and empathetic person would pursue, so they can convince their opponents that the pursuit of sensible and empathetic things is both wrong and impractical.

Everything in the world has already been said, it’s our job to say it again. Thinking about payment processors forcing a backslide into Puritanism once more, it’s important to remember we can win again.

It's complicated. There are regulations to selling things for drinking in the US. This type of certification I cannot afford to do as a small artist.
