The defense of Rowling accidentally reveals that trans women are used as scapegoats for the violence of cis men. And like, I haven't read Whipping Girl, but I think a lot of us have had the realization that trannies are the sin-eaters of contemporary society.

I expect that I'll end up in the El Salvadoran gulag because I'm a trans woman.

I feel this, all of this. I guarantee my genetic donors voted for Trump. I can't say for certain because I cut contact with them quite a while ago now, but I know they did. It makes me sick. Because they have to know. They HAVE TO KNOW what it does to me and the rest of us in these demographics.

People were mean to him on Twitter, so he bought Twitter.

People were still mean to him, so he bought the US government.

And he is going to use it to hunt down those bad people!

In yet another example of the UK media’s aggressive campaign to platform transphobia under the guise of “debate,” Judith Woods’ latest full-page profile of Alice Sullivan in the Sunday Telegraph reads less like journalism and more like propaganda.

Instead of cancelling the White House Correspondents Dinner over the shutting out of the Associated Press, the WHCA is cancelling its comedian so not to offend Trump.

Now more than ever, it’s important to support independent journalism.

@durbin.senate.gov wow, I don't know how the CR bill vote in the Senate went but I'm so pissed at dems right now. I need medicaid to live. You cut medicaid I die. I have Cystic Fibrosis. Without the life saving meds I take I'm dead in months. And you're hiding from us? Damn you.

Yo @durbin.senate.gov, no one is picking up your Senate phone and you don’t even have a voicemail. Vote no on cloture and the spending bill or I will do whatever it takes to make sure the next Senator from Illinois has basic constituent services set up during business hours.

Also important to note that the estimates that place trans people at 1.3 million are rather old, from the Williams Institute, which did good work at the time mind you.

Latest Gallup poll shows 1.3% of people now identify as trans, which would be over 4 million people!
Still thinking about this quote from a writer at NYT who said she "can't quite say [Trump's attacks on trans people are] exactly consequential, since so few lives are materially affected."

There are an estimated 1.3 million trans adults in the U.S.

That's equal to the population of Dallas, TX.

Today, not long after 3:00 PM, the US Senate will vote on a motion to invoke cloture on a transgender sports ban applying to youth and sports from dancing to darts and evenChess. If 7 Democrats flip on this motion, we will likely get a national sports ban in the US.

It is really fucking telling that the only people denied a voice at the Democratic National Convention (trans people and Palestinians) are the ones being blamed for Trump's electoral win.
