I WANT to play them! I LIKE to play them! I also play a feminine character (The nurse)! I love using my range gender expansively: Maile Flanagan voices adult Naruto, and she isn't less of a woman~

...how all of THEM feel. Imagine how the trans and enby animators and VAs at Glitch feel. Probably scared shitless at the fallout their future work might receive if this is how people are treating the boss of the project they're on. I write/draw and I have (small) projects I share publicly, but...

Seriously, though. Absolute horror show here. And yet another reminder — as if they were still needed — that capitulating gets you nothing beyond letting Trump know you’re willing to capitulate.

I am getting multiple reports that the Trump admin is NOT complying with the court order requiring passport updates for transgender people.

Some passport agencies are being told not to give trans people passports with their correct gender marker, for now.

Sol Brennan (3D Rigger/Looking for work) @wuffles.bsky.social · Jun 20

#Trans folks in the US who are reapplying for their passport to be fixed. Don't bother. Just had an emergency appointment today (I travel on the 30th) and they cannot issue me a corrected #passport. All decisions regarding this 'issue' are on hold until they receive guidance from the head office.

For that reason, it carries a huge amount of negative baggage towards intersex people...

The "baeddel" group of Tumblr brained trans radfems, co-opted the word as part of their efforts to claim a lot of intersex history as their own

Masculinity isn't evil or worth writing off entirely just bc it is weaponized.

Transmascs are no less authentic when we transition into masculinity than transfemmes are as they transition into feminimity.

Wow, the language of the UK ruling bars trans men from "male spaces" but also allows for denying them "female-specific services" "because the gender reassignment process has given them a masculine appearance ... to which reasonable objection might be taken in the context of the women-only service"

Considering what this country has done to trans people based on the false idea that sexual predators will pretend to be trans to prey on women, I for one am excited to see what happens next. Abolish ICE and ostracize any ICE officer from society completely. Can't risk it.

Extremely frustrating to me how trans men in history are never allowed by cis historians to simply be men. We are ALWAYS assigned back to female and ascribed the motivation of attempting to escape misogyny.

This, very much. Even in reading theory by other trans people, there is always this mention of "Trans men exist but some women did pretend to be men bc misogyny", it plays into this false narrative that 1) transmasc people "escape" misogyny and worse yet-

Fuckit, a brief thread about three of my favorite historic trans men 🧵:

1. Amelio Robles Ávila (1889-1984) was a Zapatista and colonel in the Mexican Revolution. He fought in many battles, received several military honors, and was shot six times during his career.

hey, folks.

as soon as i can, i’ll whip up short KOSA call scripts if it helps. but a thing you need to know is that *calling* elected reps is pretty much the lowest effort bar. for real.

sadly, social media tags do nothing to change votes.

you can’t just @ a rep & say “i did my part.”

emily moonlight @threnody.bsky.social · May 14

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT.

KOSA is vile & every single republican openly plans to weaponize it.

blackburn straight up said it exists to “protect minors from the transgender in society” & 22 GOP attorneys general openly said, “yes, i *would* use it to go after abortion info.”

KOSA IS A GIFT TO FASCISTS.

the worker's rights movement in Appalachia was 100 years ago and absolutely echoes over the present

yet even Appalachians ourselves don't know what "redneck" means due to the propaganda and erasure of this movement
