British Quakers are refusing room bookings from terfs as policy.
If you were waiting for an org to stand up for LGBTQIA+ rights, and unflinchingly withstand bullying and lawfare, here you go, friends.
Good luck to the raging bigots, they'll get nowhere with threats.

man, the collective grief from older trans people at the violent death of the world we briefly hoped was coming, a world in which trans children would be recognised, loved, and helped...

yeah.

New from me: I talked to CDC staffers about the new vaccines and autism page. They said things like:

“The best way I can put it is it feels like we’re on a hijacked airplane.”

“I think people are starting to see that we can’t fulfill our mission here.”

Girl who's been on HRT 6 years: I'm sorry to say this but first year of transition is Hell

Me (beginning of transition): pfft yeah whatever, I'm built different

(One year later)

Me (several arrows protruding out of my back): I WAS NOT BUILT DIFFERENT! I WAS NOT BUILT DIFFERENT!

trans americans are having their healthcare stripped away, their public existence penalized, their liberties restricted. this is not a response worthy of celebration.

but cis people have no idea, so they clap hollow applause, satisfied with their allyship before once again forgetting all about us.

I’ve sort of been avoiding working in Rust because of the stereotype. But I was forced into it recently and I’m actually really enjoying working in it. Much more so than Swift. Dammit…

A final fuck off to James Watson and to every news source who’s naming him as one of two co-discoverers of DNA structure without mentioning Rosalind Franklin. 🖕

Apropos of nothing, this week on the podcast we watched a movie in which judges who aided a fascist regime get put on trial after the regime is toppled
JUDGEMENT AT NUREMBERG - is it fair to imprison judges who aid a fascist regime? Yes, yes it is, 💯

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

Whitmer declares October “transgender empowerment month.”

AG Nessel and the Michigan govt have yet to force state hospitals capitulating to Trump to return to providing trans youth care.

I feel like this message is empty, and will only serve as right wing rage bait while delivering nothing.

The last 48 hours have shown why people have stopped relying on legacy journalism and have migrated to independent journalists in droves.

The benefit of legacy journalism is supposed to be “editors” and “factchecking” and they can’t even get that right in a rush to blame trans people.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.

Risk has increased sharply for youth in many states as clinics shutter under Trump and state AGs refuse to enforce civil rights laws.

For adults, some increases in risk.

Nationwide risk remains extreme.
