Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth
You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

no matter how confident you are that this shit won't pass (and it very well might not) y'all better get mad as hell and loud as FUCK about this. this won't just affect people in Michigan and it won't just affect porn.
Michigan lawmakers are proposing a total porn ban
The "Anticorruption of Public Morals Act" H.B 4938 would prohibit the distribution of "real, animated, digitally generated, written, or auditory" depictions of sexual acts.

Some states have moved to require age verification to ensure only adults are watching porn, but no states have outright banned the viewing of pornographic material.

2.977 people died on 9/11.
The daily quote for ICE is 3000.
I think putting it in terms like that puts it into perspective.
They want one 9/11 every day.

Reminder that defending porn is an absolute requirement for the right to free speech. you will lose all autonomy trying to scrub uncomfortable content.
so, in addition to KOSA & many other things, if you find the internet useful & don’t want to see queer people placed on the sex offender registry for being inherently pornographic, IODA is worth your 5 minutes & calls to your senators and house rep.

![My name is [your name] and I'm one of [representative's name]'s constituents. I'm calling to urge them to vote NO on three internet
censorship bills:
• the Kids Online Safety Act - KOSA
• the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act - IODA
• and the SCREEN Act
All three bills claim to protect teens by placing a duty of care on online platforms to prevent exposure to harmful things. But Republicans keep expanding the definition of "harmful." These bills are gifts to fascists.
[bail out here at 0:30 if you want]
KOSA's sponsor said it would "protect minors from the transgender in this culture." The Heritage Foundation said it would use KOSA to block abortion information. Both other bills allow the FTC to enforce them. FTC Chair Ferguson signed up "to fight wokeness" and "the trans agenda.'
The people in power now can't be trusted with laws like these.
[bail out here at 0:50 if you want]
Don't give weapons to fascists. If passed, these bills will harm LGBTQ teens, adults, and anyone who needs information on reproductive health or abortion. Vote NO on KOSA, IODA, and SCREEN.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2lzahebnas6od6j6jfydwst7/bafkreih6stly2ivi4kfwwqyxl4ls57lotcb5fuz5mxzhmv3g5jcwhrrf7m@jpeg)

we have to keep up the pressure on these bills. I'm calling again today and will be continuing to call until these bills are dead.
a lot of these reps get spooked by even a few dozen calls or letters on an issue. sustained pressure can make many of them bend the knee. keep calling and writing.

KOSA will absolutely be used to actively target and discriminate against LGBTQIA+ people; it will be used to frame literally *Existing* as an LGBTQIA+ person as "pornographic;" you can know this because Blackburn has admitted it out loud.
Do not let this fucking bill pass. Call your senators, now.

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT.
KOSA is vile & every single republican openly plans to weaponize it.
blackburn straight up said it exists to “protect minors from the transgender in society” & 22 GOP attorneys general openly said, “yes, i *would* use it to go after abortion info.”
KOSA IS A GIFT TO FASCISTS.

Almost nobody is ok with it. But was it on your local news today? If not, nobody is going to know about it in order to not be OK with it.
Ppl oppose almost everything this administration is doing, when they’re told what those things are. But most people aren’t!

I don't get how anyone can possibly be okay with ending the WHI. This study has accrued decades of data from 42000 women and it is still going. It helps to address critical research gaps that have been allowed to go unfilled because of durable misogyny and provides invaluable insight into aging.

Sen. Van Hollen: "Yes we are. They are very much flouting the courts as we speak...They are doing nothing. They are absolutely in violation of the courts' orders."
