People keep telling me 47 won’t be so bad, that Democrats will immobilize him, ensuring he is a lame duck president. But… trans kids will always be Republicans’ low hanging fruit and Democrats first concession. See: National Defense Authorization Act’s (NDAA) healthcare exclusions for trans youth.

Do NOT underestimate the damage that could come from eliminating the DOE, especially for our most oppressed populations.

The problem isn’t government waste. The problem is that billionaires don’t pay taxes.

Trump plans to weaken our military by discharging 15,000 trans personnel. His efforts to dehumanize trans people threaten everyone’s freedom. I hope this is bluster and doesnt come to fruition. www.attitude.co.uk/news/donald-...
Donald Trump to discharge all 15,000 transgender personnel from US military
The act would "medically discharge" around 15,000 trans personnel as unfit to serve, despite a recruitment crisis within the US military

Looking for LGBTQ – friendly YA books? These two by Klune are fantastic. Great characters and interesting plot. I listened to the audio versions and the character voices were excellent.

Fascists aren't just going after trans folks cause they hate trans ppl. They know for a fact that liberals won't risk anything real to protect trans ppl making it an easy way to legally accumulate power to use on everyone else. This is them sharpening their blade on them for y'all.

Holidays can be hard. Being misgendered and deadnamed during the holidays is harder. If someone you care about has new-to-you pronouns, start practicing now. Pro tip: practice telling stories about them using their pronouns, when you are alone. I do this when driving.

The 2016 memes still fit and the new ones are just as horrifying.

This is such an interesting conversation about how men see themselves now and how they’re falling behind women in academics and certain skills. It gets at something going on in the culture. I recommend this for educators #EduSky podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i... @npr.org

Republicans Are Obsessed With Trans People and Where They Pee
While some Democrats refuse to touch trans issues with a 10-foot pole to evade the accusation of being obsessed with “identity politics,” Republicans are openly obsessing over trans people.

This is despicable. The right to pee is a human right. These legislators aim to strip away McBride’s humanity along with her civil rights. This is the GOP playbook for all trans folx. And on TDOR. 😡
