hey cis friends

while this is absolutely horrible and part of banning us from public life, it’s even worse than that

because this says trans women are men (i mean he literally calls us that)

which establishes a legal precedent that trans women = men

and maybe you can imagine why that’s dangerous
Happening live: Donald Trump is expected to sign a far reaching executive order banning trans people from sports, which can range from disc golf to darts and even dancing and chess, in mere moments.

I'll be covering it live. Watch along with me:

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
