Can we stop saying "non-binary people are valid" please. "Non-binary people are non-binary" is the equivalent. Every time this is said at an event or by an org I and many of the other non-binary people I know cringe and feel immediately uncomfortable. People have been saying this for years.

Why are some still spreading misinfo that "masks only work when everyone wears one," & use it as an excuse not to mask as "no-one else is."
It isn't all or nothing. While it's safer when more mask because there's less virus in the air, a well-fitting mask protects you even if no-one else masks.

I would call myself a professional pessimist and "extremely depressed about the future" but god, please stop going into people's mentions to tell them that the law/courts no longer matter or post "AND YOU'RE SURPRISED???" at them, especially so if they are actively engaged in making the world better

I say this because there is so much focus on physical changes with HRT. Those are important but I’d argue what it did to my brain is even more life-changing.
The idea that anyone would want to take this away from trans people is incomprehensible. It harms you not one bit to leave us alone.

HRT did more for me than create physical changes. Within three hours of my very first dose, a noise in my head I never knew was there just… stopped. The world got quieter for the first time in my life, and it’s stayed that way ever since. I’m at peace inside in a way I had never been before.

a mask is the thing you’re looking for. it is the visible reminder of how things have changed, that you acknowledge we are not coveted “normal” times—but unlike donation-earned tote bags or symbolic beaded bracelets, the mask is community care in both form & immediate function.

When I study history
I wonder how it was
that so many people
could just go about their days
as the world they knew ended,
but this afternoon
I responded to banal emails,
engaged in small talk,
and sat in pointless meetings,
so as I just went about my day
I thought to myself: oh.

so in other words, men with anxiety should do Warhammer miniatures.
“If a man continually has anxiety (“heartbreak”), and his heart ponders foolishness”, reads the opening of this medical therapy from ancient Assyria.
The treatment is elaborate.
You mix various ingredients, make figurines, then rub the patient with dough that you then form into another figurine.

Jesse Singal is a liar and a fraud of a journalist and I will prove it as an unassailable fact in this thread.
I'll also talk about why I don't think BlueSky moderation will do anything about him afterwards so stick around or maybe just skip to that if you don't want to read the boring details.

Friends, a reminder:
While you defend the rights of queer people and women from attack, please don't remain silent on attacks on sex workers. Not only is there significant overlap with the groups you're trying to defend, but sex work has historically been used as a wedge issue to break solidarity.

Um die Sprache geht es den Kulturkrieger:innen nicht, die ein #Gender Verbot fordern. Es geht einfach darum, anderen eines reinzuwürgen. Ein aktueller Vorstoß zeigt das wieder. @nataschastrobl.bsky.social analysiert.

Am Wichtigsten ist das Gendern seinen Gegner:innen
Das Gender-Verbot hat mit "Lesbarkeit" nichts zu tun. Es geht um eine Machtdemonstration - um "den Linken" eins reinzuwürgen.
