In case you can't tell what just happened, JK Rowling instructed her followers to take photos of anyone in a women's restroom who doesn't match their idea of Western feminine beauty standards. Short hair? Thick cheekbones/jaw? Too tall or broad-shouldered? You're now "a man" and will be harassed.
If you're still buying wizard book shit, you are no friend to the trans community. Here's the wizard book bigot inciting harassment against innocent people to her 14 million followers on the nazi app.
And no, they can't Always Tell.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

This is the important part! If you submit your application for a gender marker change, you will not receive your passport or your supporting documents back.

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they *literally whispered,* they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.

If you use Instagram for photos, why not switch to Pixelfed?
Federated, and with an app just launched that’s so good Facebook are banning mentions of it.
No billionaires involved, and check out this iOS data collection notice. You won’t see that on Instagram.

So I'm finally getting around to deactivating my fb. It was already bad enough but i saw it as kind of a necessary evil to stay in touch with friends. The latest changes around fact-checking and formally allowing bullshit against queer folks was the final straw though.

privatizing usps + tariffs will basically kill small diy labels like us
President-elect Donald Trump has expressed a keen interest in privatizing the U.S. Postal Service, a move that could shake up consumer shipping and business supply chains and push hundreds of thousands of federal workers out of the government.

This is fucked.
The FL Department of Corrections is attempting to "reverse" the gender identity of transgender people in its custody, referring to trans identities as "short-term delusions" and withholding hormone therapy. Reviving psychiatric theories of the 1950s, they blame trans identities on "childhood trauma"

France has just had a review of healthcare for young trans people and it has come out entirely the opposite to Cass. But then again the personnel involved had not been specifically selected to arrive at a politically-required outcome.

![The most recent international guidelines [12] suggest that GAH should be initiated in transgender adolescents whose gender incongruence has been confirmed according to the criteria outlined in the ICD-11 (Table 1). Additionally, these adolescents should demonstrate sufficient emotional and cognitive maturity to provide informed consent for treatment. Unlike strict age criteria, other factors such as the duration of gender incongruence, medical follow-up history, persistence of transition requests, psychological distress, and the individual's maturity level should be considered when determining the optimal timing for introducing GAH.
In situations where GAH is introduced before Tanner stage 5 (especially when GnRHa has been previously prescribed), suppression can be maintained upon the introduction of GAH to prevent the action of endogenous hormones and the appearance or continued progression of secondary sexual characteristics in the undesired gender.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:d56idxm2oyqwwn2uxnegm2yo/bafkreicxk5xed5no2jm57oz6mzrtrenufehvmqn7ig4cqrgdeuiu52hqwu@jpeg)

weird how the NYT told 1000 of its own contributors “if you ask us to do better at trans coverage again, we will punish you”!

in hindsight the NYT anti-trans crusade is one of the most despicable things that any big time journalism outfit in this country has ever done. a perfect and clearly intentional layup for the fascists on the Supreme Court
