They fired every Black woman at Teen Vogue and every trans staffer.
It is astonishing watching the American media ecosystem just falling like dominoes, bowing its knees to fascism.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.
now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Michigan's porn ban specifically bans being openly transgender as being pornographic. Don't let this one slide. It is a ban on being publicly transgender on the Internet.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor appeared to rebuke calls to target “hate speech” in an apparent swipe at Attorney General Pam Bondi.
“Every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalize free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed,” said Sotomayor.

Visited the new food hall downtown last night. The bathroom is gender neutral. Two entrances from the hallway about 15 feet apart on either side of the row of sinks, and then 8 or so private stalls with full doors, no visibility etc.

NEW: Fox News reports that the government is now threatening to send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Eswatini, a small country in southern Africa where the U.S. recently sent several migrants, some of whom remain imprisoned there.

More first world problems - my tailbone is not used to the lack of padding and hurts *all the time* now. Also, the fancy faux-aeron chair I use for my gaming computer cuts off the circulation in my legs now if I sit there more than an hour. Fortunately my work chair is still ok.

First world problem: I have been looking at some clothes online that I really like. Almost all the reviews say things like "great quality, but I could have ordered the smaller size". I used their online size calculator which puts me either at an 8 or a 10 depending on how I describe my shape. 1/n

the Hutu rules of Rwanda called on their supporters to “exterminate the cockroaches” so they killed 800,000 Tutsis
A reference to "cockroaches" is telling. They see Black citizens of DC, migrants, and the unhoused as pests in need of removal, never mind the preceding centuries of inequality, slavery, death and terror. Please stay vigilant and feel free to report anything you see to us or tag us in your post

I agree. @czechgames.com should mitigate the harm done by giving her money by donating a proportion of every sale to a cause that helps trans folks who JKR’s money is used to harm. Otherwise one can only conclude they either support her cause or just don’t care about the harm she causes.
I understand legal hesitation and "breech of contract" are real issues to be avoided, and have experienced circling the corporate fucking wagons myself. But you know... how about 10 cents (or more) out of every dollar goes here @czechgames.com www.thetrevorproject.org (or any relevant place)

I want to talk about my friend.
I met him at a summer camp for nerds when I was 12, pre-transition. We hit it off immediately, became SUPER close, and our parents would drive us back and forth for sleepovers for the next five years.
He was the first trans person I met. He transitioned in the 90s.
