Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political.

Two genders - male, and political.

Two religions - Christian, and political.

Two races - white, and political.

When you really start paying attention, you'll see this subtle manipulation is more pervasive than you thought.

I think a lot of the world's problems come from men who are sensitive trying to deny that they are sensitive.

In the 1950s, polling on interracial marriage was at 4% approval in the United States. Loving v. Virginia is 1967. We hit an above 50% approval rating for the first time in the 1990s. In 2021, 94% of Americans approved of interracial marriage.
I say this for everyone who thinks that we just have to go along with what the public things: we don’t. The public can change their minds. They have in the past.

We can just do the right thing and then not end up looking like a horrific bigot in a handful of years.

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

This is the number to @translifeline.bsky.social. They DO NOT use caller ID. They DO NOT ask for your personal info. They DO NOT call cops or emergency services unless you explicitly ask them to. If you're a trans or non-binary person in need of emotional support, call this number.

Over the next however many days/weeks, as various elected officials scramble to "save" TikTok so they don't alienate 170 million people, please remember that almost every single one of them were involved in creating this situation in the first place.

Cassette tape was fun. Keeping notes of what counter each program was at, rewinding / fast forwarding to get there, reusing tapes between your computer and Walkman / boom box.

this is true, but also, I don't need cis people to check in on me, I need cis people to offer me a job, a staff android software engineer position, no more than two days in office, located in the SF Bay Area,,,
if you're cis:

if you think you know how your trans friends are doing, you don't.
if you think you have a finger on the pulse, you don't.

i've been out for 12 fucking years, transphobia has never been this direct, explicit, and targeted, with the intention that we (redacted). check in
cis folks on here should have their feeds replaced by a trans person’s for a day. they’d see the fear, the anguish, the hopelessness of a community that is tired, broke, starving, and desperate for a shred of human decency in a world that wants to end us.

81 Democrats voted to ban gender affirming care for the children of military families. Absolutely disgraceful. This is the first national ban on care to pass congress and the first anti LGBTQ bill in nearly 3 decades.
The National Defense Authorization Act, which enacts the first federal anti-lgbtq law in decades and targets the trans kids of military servicemembers, just passed with 80 Democratic votes.

Shameful.

Will get the list of dems who voted for it shortly.
