Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) at the Boston No Kings rally today, wore the trans pride flag like a scarf draped over his shoulders and included in his speech. "Because here in Massachusetts, we stand for what is right. We stand with trans people because trans rights are human rights."

it is not about sports. it has never been about sports. it is about banning trans people from public life entirely AT BEST, and at worst, forcing them into situations that will endanger their lives. this is why we don't play along with the "just asking questions" sports bullshit
🚨 BREAKING | Labour is set to impose a sweeping ban on trans people using any "single-sex space".

In EHRC guidance that Labour is set to approve, trans people will be barred from accessing toilets, gyms and changing rooms that match their gender.

I find activism always works best when playing dumb and kind. When I speak at city council meetings about banned books, I pretend to assume everyone is on my side, even if I've done enough research to write a book, and act the part.
Currently on the phone with Visa

Instead of starting with a complaint, I approached this as a Confused American Consumer who doesn't understand why they can't buy things off a website they use

The call center rep immediately asked if it was about Steam/itch

The music of Seinfeld, divorced from the show itself, is nothing short of disgusting. Imagine if the show didn’t exist but the music somehow did. Hearing it, your face would twist in angry revulsion

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

This, like the decree claiming that there are only two genders, is self refuting.

If it was accurate you wouldn’t need to legislate.

This is why I absolutely refuse to tolerate anyone mewling about how our side needs to show more “empathy” to GOP voters, especially GOP voters who live in suburbs and small towns and drive $60K pickup trucks.

Fuck these ghouls.
they laugh at us while our city burns. but somehow its the liberals who are always told they need to reach out and show more empathy to the other side while they celebrate natural disasters. trump is scum.
