Hey there! I’ve been told this is the best Twitter alternative, especially after the election.

I’m looking for mutuals! Here are some of my interests:

-Leftist politics (especially trans rights)
-Comedy (especially Dropout)
-Shitposts
-Cute pet photos
-Academia
-Music, book, and TV recs
-Art!

The National Defense Authorization Act, which enacts the first federal anti-lgbtq law in decades and targets the trans kids of military servicemembers, just passed with 80 Democratic votes.

Shameful.

Will get the list of dems who voted for it shortly.

Lol, love to see a Democratic governor praising a pick for HHS that believes vaccines are a conspiracy, wants to target trans people through the FDA, and will remove fluoride from water.

Trump nominates Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General.

Of special note for my readers, Gaetz is a horrific pick for trans people. He has pushed Trump’s school trans surgery lie, and has said things that indicate to me he is likely to target trans kids in blue states.

See:
Matt Gaetz defends Trump’s lies and disinformation on transgender surgeries after the debate
Trump has falsely claimed trans youth are getting surgeries in schools.

Anyways, John Oliver defended trans folks better than anyone else in the media. After many in the Dems and media wanted to throw us to the wolves it was heartening to see that. We still have so many allies.
