Repeating my post:

I think a little "transgender for everyone"...

..where that entails a deep self-examination of who one is and their place in the world, how they affect and are affected by that... and then taking agency over what one finds and what one DOES about it...

...Wouldn't fucking hurt.

This this this for trans kids too.

No amount of conversion therapy can make your kid not gay. Just like it can't make a black person white. These things can't be changed. If conversion therapy seems to work, it's because for their own safety, your kid started lying to you about who they are to stop you from torturing them.

Look at the history of general strikes overseas.

They work.

Steel yourself to outlast them if that happens. Prepare for it.

How long do you think it'll take for taco to cave when all his rich pals start calling him as their phantom wealth starts draining from the stock market?

Days? Not months.

And this isn't: "Go sit down and be good." Resist. Put the screws to the people they are beholden to by refusing to run their economy.

Blue cities are at the heart of the economy, where the flows of commerce converge.

Disrupting them, suspending civil law in them, costs those people $$$$.

MelodyMP @melodymp.bsky.social · 22h

Going back to my first point... the administration is trying to provoke unrest and have it spin out of control so they can justify suspending civil law, and thus inconvenient things like elections.

Everything is about raising the temperature.

Pissed off people, regardless of who they might rationally think are the ones shitting on them, act shitty to other people.

Pissed off police = pissed off policing.

This outside of whatever else we can lay at the feet of policing in general.

I disagree. They can put you in danger with bystanders, in restrooms, or simply by painting you as a predator in some fashion.

And we've seen this happen no small number of times.

Further proof that trans women are not at all a monolith, as people, or as a culture :P

Then: "Congressman Bob embezzeled $100 and lied about it. FBI indictment and impeachment coming." as wapo headline.

Now: "Trump ends Democracy. Are Senate Dems to blame?" on wapo page 6.

Remembering fondly the days when "It's not the crime, it's the coverup." was a truism in politics.

Note:

Femboys are gender non conforming, not transgender.

Just sayin' :p

MelodyMP @melodymp.bsky.social · 1d

Little theory:

The reason they're doing this performative shit is to provoke enough violence trump can use the insurrection act.

More pissed off people including cops makes it more likely.

It is with some sense of irony that we report that, when we attempted to follow up with Ms. Sparks, we learned she'd taken her own advice, and was no longer available for comment.

It is with an even greater sense of irony that we announce this will be our final article.

Too close to the irony sun.

So what you're saying is... advocating for one to accept their gender and discussions around how you go about doing that are free speech... right scotus?

That is, not "terrorist speech", or threats. Not an ideology or some such silliness...

Just good, healthy mental health care.

Call Patel? H.F.?
