i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

There are very few trans journalists able to work full time covering trans issues. Not all of my work will be trans-related but it remains my focus point. If you want to help support trans journalists, becoming a paid subscriber to my work is one way to do so. burns-notice.ghost.io/what-would-t...

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

What exactly is it about trans people that inspires such disproportionate self-incinerating rage in people who fall down anti-trans rabbit holes? That we've kinda done nothing is precisely why it's so disproportionate, to the conspiracy addled, it's more proof of our secretive far-reaching power.

Disclosure: I am on the board of Bluesky and am inherently biased. Adjust your skepticism of what I write on this topic accordingly. It seems a bit odd: when something is supposedly dying or irrelevant, journalists can't stop writing about it. Consider the curious case of Bluesky, which, according to various pundits, is a failed "liberal echo chamber" that nobody uses anymore.

Next time a publication publishes a piece about "ideological diversity" simply google if they have any trans writers or editors on staff (they don't)
I've said this before, but so-called ideological diversity only runs rightward, and it never means arguing about economics or something. I already know the conservative position on, for instance, my existence. I'm not going to snap out of being trans because seventeen more people call me a man.

Talk to at least 1 stranger a day
im not saying have full conversations, though you can and should sometimes.
walking past someone with a cool outfit? Tell them!
say good morning/afternoon/evening!
small interactions will evolve over time and talking to strangers will be easier!
