A huge win for trans people in California: the state legislature passed five bills protecting our rights!

Now it's time to call on Governor Gavin Newsom to sign them. Contact him before October 12th: transfamilysos.org/action-neede...

I had to climb it. Our whole group got pics of us all over the sign giving Elon the🖕but I can't find those. So here's this.

First burn is under my belt and despite the harsh conditions during build week, the final handful of days were just PERFECT and the atmosphere was alive and vibrating both visually and aurally!
Would I go next year? You betcha.

Went to San Francisco for the trans march on Friday. Biggest one yet and seeing the hordes of people that showed up was so EMPOWERING. I felt like trans folks have a fighting chance to be LEFT ALONE to be HAPPY.
Allies: please keep showing up and being loud!

Instead of working to protect Americans' privacy, today the FTC is hosting what amounts to an anti-trans rally. Nobody is more obsessed with controlling the private decisions of the American people than Republicans.

Well I'm on the hunt for a job. If you've got any leads please send them my way.
I'm typically in the IT infrastructure / devops / cloud engineer realm.

At this point, it's a matter of life and death.

UnSCruz 2025 is in the bag. It was my first burner event and I've gotta say -- I'm definitely going to do my best to attend it with friends every year. I saw so much, I had many ideas, and I'd love to contribute in my own way. I can't wait for next year even though I lost my job the next day.

Heading out for UnSCruz here shortly. My first burner event, it's a local one, and I don't know what to expect - and that's ok. I'll be sure to take in all the sights and sounds and forget about the daily grind for a few days. It's going to be amazing.

1. A major bill protecting trans people just passed in Washington.

It makes insurers cover 12-month supplies of HRT which can be obtained at pharmacies, allowing trans people to stockpile medication to outlast supply disruptions.

What if all trans folks (esp passing dolls and rugged transmen) use the bathroom the transphobes want us to?
Will it cause enough chaos and outrage?
Certainly there would be a lot of spectacle/police involved. Risky for those in unsafe areas, but do this "what if" with me.
What would happen?

1. A transgender woman let legislators know she intended to use the bathroom in the Florida Capitol.

A contingent of officers waited for her, and stood outside the door.

When she stepped in, she was arrested and sent to a men's jail.

Hmmm. Why's this place so hot despite not using open standards for federation? Mastodon has tons of servers contributing already. Why veer away from it? Even Meta's Threads posts to "the fediverse" and I subscribe to myself from my Mastodon account.
Honest question. Please let me know what's up.

OHAI! Joined here despite it not being part of the fediverse. Still though - I'm here to find out what it's all about.,
