It's scary and impoverished out there for trans folks and I'm going to have to upend my life pretty soon. My wonderful friends and bandmates put this together to help out — if you can help in anyway, with a few bucks or a share, it would make this tgirl's life a lot easier

this is further confirmation from the universe that I need to finish my backlog of old games before playing anything released in the last 3 years.

That said, this is the video that I remember just like, leaving MTV on in hopes of catching. Everytime I saw that spinning tire I'd get so fuckin' excited

both parts of this matter:

this would be a near ban in all states; there’s a runway here where fighting back helps hold up falling sky for trans kids. every day matters.

& if you’re like “it’ll be fine—they’ll just wait til after trump” i want you to recall what happened to *your* body from 14-17.

Reposting this as time runs out and things get ever scarier — we're getting close to meeting the goal, and any amount helps enormously.

there's also the extremely genuine way homer says "he's in my book club!" in the episode where they go to japan

tie between marge calling flying a kite "so unwholesome" and homer saying "i hope you pick many a bean" to lisa in a weird long exchange about sending her to grandma's
what's the stupidest/randomest Simpsons quote that lives in your head rent free? Mine is the urge to say "you said go to bread" every time I am about to head to bed.

holy shit the actual studio quality recording?? i've been waiting for this for like, over a decade. one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, the guitar interplay influenced my entire discography. i'm all over this.

Any trans person who begins their transition today is exhibiting more courage than most people will in their entire lives.

hi, cis folks!

if you said you’d stand with trans people, we need you now.

the FY26 budget bill gets a vote by 9/30. the GOP wants to jam a ban on federal funding for ALL health services that provide trans care for ANY AGE.

we need you to call senators: reps.fyi

more info & script downthread.🧵
NEWS: House Appropriations Committee Republicans released their spending bill for Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies. The legislation would prohibit taxpayer dollars for any type of gender-affirming care for transgender people. This would include programs like Medicaid

Hey, uh... we're gonna need every cis ally to call their congresscritters and yell at them, because this is, like... a straight-up deathblow to healthcare that keeps a LOT of us alive.
1. The HHS Appropriations Bill is out and it contains several devastating anti-trans provision.

It would bar federal funding for trans youth and adult care nationwide, which could be used to bar hospitals from providing it at all.

Will Democrats stand firm, or cave to avoid a shutdown?
House HHS Appropriations Bill Would Devastate Trans Adult Healthcare Nationwide
The bill would bar federal funding for any "social, psychological, behavioral, or medical intervention" to treat gender dysphoria.
