On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

Americans think in terms of $$ and a lot of me me me.
Canadians think in terms of quality of life and how can I help my neighbour.
Have an American walking into my posts saying we pay high taxes, and get nothing out of it, let me clarify for people who don't know, our taxes, pay for Universal Health Care, Maternity Leave, Dentalcare, & many other social programs, as well, our taxes are now pretty close to the US /1

it is jaw-dropping to consider just how much of the present state of our world stems from men being scared of being perceived as gay

Historical context:

Christine Jorgensen makes headlines in December 1952.

Comics Code Authority introduced in October 1954.

Space Adventures #7 released in July 1953, in the tiny window between these two events. What a goddamn time capsule.

So Charlie Kirk was killed by a right wing cis man in the middle of a speech about how dangerous trans people are?

Not one single one of them is going to stop and think are they

I doubt Graham Linehan will ever face any justice for any of the horrific things he's done

I do know that if I did them I'd be in jail and everyone defending him now would be calling for a longer sentence

Gender Critical people are so fucking grim my god. It genuinely is a cult that believes causing suffering to others is enjoyable

The judge warned members of the public, in a room packed with Graham Linehan supporters, not to react to any language used during the proceedings, or they would be removed from the public gallery.

"As ever, Rowling is a raving lunatic who’s full of shit. Even the gentlest rebuking sends her into a spiraling Twitter frenzy, and as amusing as that can be, I have to wonder how many more hate groups she intends to fund in her ruthless drive to scour trans people from the face of the Earth."
OG Potter Director Lightly Critiques Rowling, Meltdown Ensues — Assigned
When Chris Columbus offered a very gentle rebuke of J.K. Rowling’s years of devotion to destroying transgender people, she immediately went on Twitter and completely lost her mind.

🚨 There is now an OPEN LETTER demanding accountability from McMaster University for partnering with SEGM - an anti-trans hate group.

It’s open for ANYONE to sign - not just faculty, alumni, or students.

the appeal to "normal women" is always really funny. all women are a little bit "weird" in very individual interesting ways that is just what happens when you gotta navigate and survive a byzantine and contradictory gender system idk. true for lots of people really. im pro weird girl

“You’re only ever male or female end of story” is about as useful to the human condition as “you’re only ever alive or dead” or “you’ll either win or you’ll lose”. It’s a nothing thing to say with all the nuance of a schoolyard bully who’s nothing but an arsehole who chooses the path of nastiness.
