This moment from today’s Medicaid vigil is so powerful…

Question: What do you say to the people who voted to cut Medicaid? Be honest.

Samantha Phillis: They voted against my child’s life.

In almost all cases, people steal because they have an unmet need. I fucking hate being stolen from. And I think people's needs should be met. We could do that.

1. The Supreme Court has allowed a military ban that calls transgender people inherently "dishonorable" to go into effect.

This is a devastating ruling that opens the door for much worse.

I detail what this means for trans servicemembers in my latest.

Today's gender is:
• fully face target, extend arms, create triangle with shoulders
• line up ironsights on target, let sights blur
• squeeze the trigger, don't pull
• gently, until you feel the trigger resist
• breathe calmly, time the shot to be as accurate as possible, fire at bottom of exhale.

RFK Jr is trying to create an autism registry. Always a really good sign when a government creates a list of neurodivergent people, on top of trans people, immigrants, and politically active anti-Israel active mobilizers. /s

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense.

Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

I've been 3D printing tiny, very loud ICE whistles and handing them out at my library. So if someone gets approached or sees someone getting abducted, they can make some noise to distract and get people looking and helping.

It's also - and I know I say this a lot but I think it's really important - scientifically false

Biology is not a simple binary, it is not static. That isn't how human bodies work
If what you're seeing is a lot of angry trans people online, this might be why.

3 years ago, "biological male" was a term of abuse thrown at trans women by anti-trans folk. It first appeared on the BBC in Sept 22 when Ed Davey was interviewed by Justin Webb. Today, that abuse is law.

Also, when people balk at actually asking our allies to do some ally shit and how that might alienate them, I want to point out that every single trans liberation demo in the last week has been full of trade unionists stepping up and being visible comrades on the knowledge that this fight matters.

I have to stress: not only are people who live authentically cooler, they are also happier in themselves.

I know plenty of trans people who are not happy. Most people I know aren't happy.
But trans people are becoming someone they can love, and that's the most radical act imaginable in 2025.

I'm so tired of telling MFers that transphobia hurts EVERYBODY.
This is the inevitable outcome of transphobic ideology. It harms cis people as well as trans if you don't fit a stereotype. If you don't look or act a specific way conjured up in the minds of the gender critical brigade you are, what they consider, a fair target.

thinking about the people who got mad at me when i said this
my outsider perspective on US politics is that it seems like i spend 4 years getting told the democrats can't do the thing because they need just one more vote, and then the republicans get in and can do whatever they want because half of the democrats vote with them

If you're in need of a real reason to maintain hope remember that billionaire-backed propaganda campaigns and mass censorship across state and federal governments has only made the country even more queer
