Since Cass is again making the rounds for expounding on all the ways we might make fewer trans kids, here’s a piece on how this discourse erases the lives of trans people doing extraordinary specifically because they embraced who they are. Whose rich lives wouldn’t have happened in the closet.
In defense of trans quality of life — Jessica Kant
Today trans people exist in an atmosphere where it has become normal for strangers to demand of us that we extemporaneously provide inarguable, indisputable proof that without very safe medical care w...

pghrt.diy literally had my doctor doing the Pikachu meme about how fast my T was suppressed and how good my levels were.

Meanwhile a bunch of her other patients are struggling on doctor-brained oral regimens

So I have waited a bit before I decided to write this part so I could get my thoughts together better and part so I could do so more level headed. @katmabu.bsky.social posted a video about her feelings of the "She is not from here" argument thrown at her yesterday. This will be long so hold on...

seeing ppl post about Cass this morning (not sure why) so I figured I'd share this essay about how her report (& WPATH files, Jamie Reed, etc) are attempts to find a smoking gun that doesn't exist:

AOC’s biggest problem if she runs for president is that the white men who control our media ecosystem will not so much put a finger on the scale to stop her as an entire hand

it can be done (see: Zohran) but it’s going to be blatant and it’s going to be infuriating
Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

This is 100% true.
Anti-fascists of all stripes would do so much better to advocate for principles than for tactics.

First, tactics are situational; what might make sense for one won't make sense for most others. Principles apply broadly, and can suggest the right tactic for the situation.

Is right now a good time to oppose Hitler in his desire to take Poland and Austria?
Is right now a good time for the democrats in Congress to be very public about fighting for trans rights? And I’m not sure what slur you’re accusing me of using, but if I’ve said something wrong please do let me know.
