The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

FYI the harassment campaigns launched by Kiwi Farms primarily targeted trans or disabled people, with the goal of getting them to commit suicide. They even kept a "kill count" tracker on their website. Now this 19 yr old with a broccoli haircut has access to some of our most sensitive information
Just absolutely bonkers details in this article. Edward Coristine was a member of several Telegram chat rooms that were being tracked by the FBI, including Kiwi Farms (known for harassment campaigns). Coristine was apparently on the FBI's radar for his prior contacts with an alleged criminal hacker.

In a new lawsuit filed against Trump by state AGs, a family with a trans kid shares she died by suicide last month citing fears Trump would deny her access to gender-affirming care. "Her parents have expressed fear...that what happened to their daughter does not happen to other children."
![The serious concerns over how the Order will detrimentally impact transgender
youth cannot be overstated. One Washingtonian, as her parents describe her, was a bright and
gentle soul who loved playing musical instruments, trying new things, and playing Magic the
Gathering. She was excited to learn Japanese and the impact of gender-affirming care was
immediately clear to her family. Her parents described that “her joy was clear with every new
milestone in her transition. She was so happy to get to the next step, to get closer to presenting
in a way that was true to herself.” But the day before the presidential election, she shared,
“[t]omorrow I get to find out if I’m illegal.” After the election, she asked her parents if they
could move to Canada because she was fearful of new restrictions on transgender youth and
worried about losing access to gender-affirming care. In January 2025, she took her life. After
the Order issued, her parents expressed that the outlook for transgender futures looks scary and
shared fears of what ending gender-affirming care would have meant for their daughter’s access
to therapy, puberty-delaying medication, hormones, and hope of surgery. Her parents have
expressed fear for the many lives who depend on gender-affirming care and that what happened
to their daughter does not happen to any other children.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mlmouohgzbjofidukcp4pxf2/bafkreich7jyv3lnkmd5r234itpdhtvavgblc46ai6d47tb4i7oxgfga2ym@jpeg)

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.

The social shift in this country that followed the Civil Rights Movement was the biggest actual change but was merely cosmetic. So while we grew up thinking racism was over, it was getting worse because we never dealt with the base problem: this country's DNA is supremacy culture through & through.
It only took a couple of generations for us to start talking about white supremacy as something that was inside people's hearts but didn't actually manifest in the real world. That was never true. White supremacy has always been actively supported through policy and practice.
