“The cruel irony is that thousands of transgender servicemembers have sacrificed—some risking their lives—to ensure for others the very equal protection rights the Military Ban seeks to deny them,” wrote Judge Ana Reyes re: Trump Trans military ban

I am so heartbroken. I got to know Elisa two years ago when she came to me with hundreds of emails of anti-trans legislators scheming around restricting trans rights. I helped get her story told by the New York Times and Washington Post. She deserved so much better.

RIP.
I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe.

She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today.

RIP Elisa.

Marsha P. Johnson spent her life advocating for LGBTQ people of color, LGBTQ youth experiencing homelessness, and people living with HIV and AIDS. She was a trailblazer for the trans community and an icon to all.

Thank you, Marsha.

Less than 10 trans identified athletes…but did we include those that play chess????
Out of 510,000 NCAA athletes, less than 10 are transgender. They are literally writing an executive order to target less than a hundred people nationwide. Republicans spent over $110 million in anti-trans ads on a made up problem.

Interesting research that supports the idea that it’s good to be skeptical, check your sources, and try observing things from multiple viewpoints.
interesting article illustrating overconfidence and bias from people effectively living in echo chambers where they are only exposed to viewpoints and information agreeing with their beliefs,

More reps like this please!
Banning trans kids from sports solves *none* of the problems that Americans are facing.

Let’s be real: Trans kids aren't the reason we can't afford groceries. Trans kids aren't the reason young people are giving up on ever owning a home.

Corporate greed is.

A federal court has ruled that Florida can detransition inmates.

Some trans inmates are having estrogen pulled, hair shorn, and put through state-run conversion therapy.

This is the cruelty of abandoning incarcerated trans people.
