Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.
ACLU says another three US citizen children were disappeared from their own country today: www.aclu.org/press-releas...
ICE Deports 3 U.S. Citizen Children Held Incommunicado Prior to the Deportation | American Civil Liberties Union
Families disappeared and isolated without legal access; one child with cancer deported without medication and pregnant mother deported as well

The UK's political and media class has spent years heaping sadism on trans people, and they want to do the same in Ireland next. Calls for civility and calm won't cut it. We need to fight them tooth and nail.

If you’re doing the “trans men in women’s toilets” gotcha, 1) you’re making what was always a crap argument 2) you’re revealing that you haven’t read the UK Supreme Court judgment because it says trans men aren’t allowed in women’s spaces (because we look like men) OR men’s spaces

I need everyone to understand that "cisgender gender nonconforming people" are fat people, women with short hair, muscular women, tall women, women who've had mastectomies, skinny men, men with long hair, short men, ...
Literally any trait that makes a person appear not stereotypically their gender

Surprise Surprise... bathroom laws target cisgender women more often than trans ones, from a simple numbers game there are just so many more cisgender gender nonconforming people than there are trans people out there.

Me watching a film.
1. Start watching.
2. Wonder what I’ve seen one of the actors in before.
3. Google actor.
4. Go to IMDb/their Wikipedia page.
5. Find out every single detail of their entire life.
6. Realise I’ve completely missed the plot of the film and now have no idea what’s going on.

just don’t invoke the slogan “love is what makes a family” in connection with #adoption. If that slogan has any meaning, it refers to the reciprocity in the concept of chosen family.
Most adoptees never had a choice. There is no reciprocity when you’re trafficked as a baby.
