Yes it’s disgraceful all those grand slams that have been won by trans women.

I think the coded language most ignored is how the right uses “inefficiency” to mean “things not yet being profit maximized by private equity” rather than “running smoothly with minimal waste”

It was a thrill to meet Georgia Tennant at the recording of @theguiltyfeminist.bsky.social podcast yesterday - Thank you for being part of the movement of women standing in support of the trans+ community 🩷

Someone has a spine.

Why can’t other police chiefs and police officers do their fucking job; Protect & Serve the people and communities of their cities?!

Police Do not answer to the government or the WH, they answer to the people and enforce the law.

By helping ICE they are breaking the law.
Minneapolis stands up to ICE

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job

Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

My dad’s reaction to seeing me in this dress: “Marcy Jane! You look so pretty!” That’s it.

Trans girl dads: that’s the standard. No eye rolls. No sad smiles. No making it clear you miss a person who doesn’t exist anymore. Be kind. Be accepting. Be enthusiastic. That’s the bar. You can do it.
I don’t care that it’s 40 degrees out. I bought this dress on clearance and I’m not waiting until next summer to wear it. (Baby trans girl pro tip: if you hold your shoulders back they look smaller AND it makes your boobs look bigger).

(cont'd) Example here of what I discussed above about MMR:

Also, Brandolini's law: "The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it."

Concerns that three separate shots would be more costly and time-consuming, and keep kids from being vaccinated

The pandemic didn’t end.

The bigots in charge know that an unmitigated pandemic causes disproportionate death & disability of the groups they hate: trans folks, poor folks, immigrants, disabled folks, BIPOC communities, &c.

Don’t let them turn you into a weapon. Mask up. Give/get mask mutual aid:

This quote will go straight into my top three favorite quotes.

First is “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe“ - Albert Einstein

Second is "Fuck AI" - Guillermo del Toro

Now, third is "Fuck off and let people be" - David Tennant
"In recent history, the Doctor Who actor has repeatedly made headlines thanks to his allyship towards trans and gender non-conforming people – most notably with a subtle gesture during a TV interview that wound up helping to raise £18,000 for the LGBTQ+ youth charity AKT."
'F*** Off And Let People Be': David Tennant Doubles Down On Support For Trans People

"Gender is between your ears, not between your legs."

I had no idea that Chaz Bono was behind that quote. As someone who's on the non-binary spectrum, it speaks volume how I've always felt about my own lack of male identity or female identity. Although, I'd like to "feel" more masculine, sometimes.

Be more than thankful, be grateful.

I used to live in that space. The space where I could stop and be grateful. Not for possessions, but for my life, my wife, my kids, my family, my dear friends.

“Life is good.”

That was my silent mantra. And it was real. I carried it with me.
