Yooooo.....

ASAN *hates* Autism Speaks. Like, they literally still have articles on their site about how much and why they hate AS. The most recent pdf about this was updated just this month.

It's a big deal that they came together for this statement.

“Our task is to build a wide and deep movement, as spiritual as it is political, strong enough to stop these unhinged traitors. A movement rooted in a steadfast commitment to one another, across our many differences and divides, and to this miraculous, singular planet.”
THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM

My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social.

The governing ideology of the far right has become a
monstrous, supremacist survivalism.

Trump's 3/27 executive order targets the Smithsonian for advancing "the view that race is not a biological reality but a social construct."

Trump argues that the exhibit's statement, below, is unscientific. He's wrong. As a biology professor and population geneticist, I agree with every word of it.

Whichever one it is, it's fucking ridiculous.
I'm sorry for raining on this parade, but the "transgender mice" talking point is bullshit, but not because someone mistook "transgenic" for "transgender."

The blog post that kicked it off (from a partisan bullshit website) listed a number of papers testing the effects of sex hormones on animals.

Jfc 🤦‍♀️
Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.
Trump Decried Millions Spent 'Making Mice Transgender.' It Was Cancer and Asthma Research
President Trump falsely claimed that Biden spent $8 million on 'making mice transgender,' but the real research was for human health.

Shout out to the person in the audience holding up a piece of paper that just says "LIES" whenever there's a standing ovation ✊🏻

Watching the thing and my head is spinning from all the double-speak 😵‍💫

Y'all, that's not how tariffs WORK 😣

I need to find a chat somewhere with sane people so I don't lose all hope, this is nuts...

When propaganda is so widespread and pervasive. And both sides are pointing fingers, saying it's the other guy doing propaganda.
When otherwise reasonable people can repeat the propaganda with a straight face.
When those same people then think you're the one falling for propaganda.

Cleaned out my closet tonight. Got rid of way less than I was hoping.
For example, I have several skirts and dresses I haven't worn for *years*.
But I'm genderfluid. I'll wanna wear them at some point. Just haven't felt that femme in... awhile.

And thus, the hoard remains.

Trump will be hanging his political opponents in the streets and there will still be people who are like “Now, there’s no need to panic or exaggerate…”

Can you guess what sorts of things "Buddie" shares on his profile?
Let's just say his callous response is not surprising.
Whenever I start to wonder if I'm on the right side of history (like when my [former] therapist claims she hasn't seen what I've seen), MAGA kindly reminds me that I am.

Remember, it was a black trans woman who helped make this happen.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Tryna find gender-affirming doctors to shadow so I can also be a gender-affirming doctor in this small, rural town...

But I can't post inquiries to local Facebook groups cause it's super not safe 🙃

That's what I'm assuming, anyway, given The Comments™️

LGBTQIA minors make up 40% of the endangered minor runaway population. They are 120% more likely to be unhoused. They are also uniquely at risk for exploitation and trafficking.

This is breathtakingly evil.
New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.

Friendly reminder that forcing everyone to be Christian is NOT "religious liberty" and that Orangey is decidedly not even actually Christian. He is using you.

And you're too fucking brainwashed to see it.
