The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!
survey.gendercensus.com
It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

"GET BEHIND ME!"
Transphobia is now government policy and all queer people are in danger. To young trans people, I wanna reassure you that not every adult has gone mad and many of us have your back. We'll be fighting to the bitter end for a just world. THE FIRST PRIDE WAS A RIOT AND WE FIGHT BACK.

Venezuelans in U.S. call Trump's move to end deportation protections a 'betrayal'
Trump's order revoking TPS status for almost 350,000 Venezuelans in 60 days would be 'suicidal' for some if they're sent back; others would be jailed, an activist said.

This is so wrong on so many levels.
In the 20th century, they were known as "concentration camps." Now, they are simply called "housing."
Doesn't that sound so much more humane? Voila, problem solved!

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.

As expected, Trump’s first day in office brought chaos. Immigration, LGBTQ+ rights, and federal programs were all targeted in his first wave of executive orders—but not everything will stick. The Big Picture breaks it all down in this handy guide to Trump's most deplorable day one actions.

Not so great news... I have a cold.
Pretty good news... even though there's still a bit of swelling, my cyborg knee is healing up well. Check out that fabulous 90º+ bend and fancy scar! Once it's healed more, I'm thinking maybe a lightning bolt tattoo.
