I'm a transgender girl living in the Mormon jungle of Utah. I love ballet and music!
Recently had a transgender person tell me it's okay to throw trans athletes under the bus for political gain. I told them it's never been about sports, & we cannot compromise on civil rights. They blocked me, after claiming I'm putting their safety at risk. I've known this person for over a decade.

Tesla stock crashing hard! Twitter hit by massive Cyber Attack. Fuck Elon Musk! He should be nowhere near our government!!
Tesla down 15%.

Now is the time to double down on protests.

The far right showed what they can do with Bud Light.

Let those who support LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, government workers, and diversity show what we can do with Tesla.

Those driving Teslas should be seen as collaborators.

Transgender rights are nonnegotiable. Our rights are not a political bargaining chip. I'm sick of seeing neoliberal jerks defending the transphobia put forward by California Governor Gavin Newsome. I will NEVER vote for any Democrat who is willing to throw trans people under the bus!

Yes, I made it to Friday. I'm still here, and I'm still trans. 🏳️‍⚧️
In my years of reporting on LGBTQ news this was by far the hardest.

But we are still here. You made it to Friday. You lived. Good job. That wasn’t easy.

Through a diversity of tactics, we will continue to live.

Rest up, drink water, find community, so that we can all be here tomorrow too.

Montgomery County Public Schools comes out and tells Trump to pound sand with his EO telling schools that they have to discriminate against transgender students.

This is how you refuse to comply.

I watched The Wild Robot over the weekend, as it hit Peacock on Friday. WOW! So good! It made me cry. Highly recommend it. Dreamworks has really been crushing it with their recent animated movies.

So Meta is now censoring LGBT and Transgender in the Search. Both show no results. People need to ditch Threads, and come over to Bluesky. Mark Zuckerberg can go to hell with this homophobia and transphobia. #LGBT #Transgender

How did the tech bro crowd, growing up on stories of sci-fi, transhumanism, virtual reality and limitless ability to modify one's body, "biohacking," etc. end up becoming so viscerally anti-transgender? Truly boggles my mind.

It might be due to be newer Swiftie (after mostly being a casual fan for the many years prior), but I personally prefer the Taylor's Version recordings. When I let Apple Music shuffle Taylor Swift, the originals sound odd to me. I can't wait to hear Taylor's Version of Debut.

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.

Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

Threads still has an edge over Bluesky: people I want to follow & interact with.
