On May 10, 1933, Nazis burned the library of The Institute for Sexual Science.

The Institute was founded by Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld. Its community clinic pioneered healthcare for queer, trans, & intersex people.

The Institute was targeted & attacked as part of a Nazi government censorship program.

In the midst of the US’s political chaos the one voice I see being left out consistently are those with disabilities and accessibility needs. We need to be allies for everyone affected, not just for what is affecting us individually. This is a super easy thing you can do that makes a difference.
Hey y’all! I’m trying to be better about this, and you should too!

Transgender issues aren’t “a distraction.”

They are the main event for the GOP.

They hate us enough to hurt everyone.
So Trump's shutting down of the entire government's funding system for American projects is literally so he can go line by line and target transgender people and other minorities.

When we said transphobia affects cis people too, well... here you go.

-Reject Unanimous Consent
-Vote NO on Cloture

The text of this is fevered nonsense that will kill children.

If you've ever been "just asking questions" or argued that this medical care is anything but the well-documented and correct treatment it has always been, I hate your guts and want you to know you deserve a life of abject misery.

I'll also plug that you guys should subscribe to
@aimod.social (AI slop labeler)
@arttheft.bsky.social (art theft and scam artist labeler)

And go through your following lists to unfollow those who get labeled.

If you get another gfx spam follow, report them to bsky but also to those lists.
the more popular this site gets the less i see people using the pronoun labeler, so here's a reminder that it exists!

@pronouns.adorable.mom

highly recommended to at least subscribe to be able to see everyone else's labels even if you don't want to set them for yourself

Okay, here’s the deal: RIGHT NOW is the time for concrete, direct action.

If you’re following me, it’s probably because you care about trans art and trans literature. The article below lays out my suggestions for dozens of concrete actions you can take to preemptively combat literary censorship.
