thinking about the scene in Twin Peaks at Laura's funeral where Bobby breaks down and says that everyone there killed Laura because they knew what was happening, they knew she was in trouble and they didn't do anything. thinking about that scene a lot today.

Democrats had the mid terms locked up, and went "Nah. Our donors want Republicans in office, so we have to lose."

In case cishet people don't realize: There aren't a lot of queer people around in most social settings, and we spend a lot of time finding each other, talking to each other, seeking each other out! Brianna herself was making online content for other queer kids!

No Kings protests were one of the few times Trump, MAGA, and right-wing media were reacting to something the opposition did, rather than the opposition reacting to whatever they do.
Adopt a principle from war strategy: generally better to be taking action and forcing opponents to react. Good point.

Point five is really important. The protests provoked errors from the administration (shit force one) that may haunt them for years. That’s what happens when you stop being reactive.

The medical industrial complex values us only so far as it can profit from us, and it can profit from us in other ways besides providing affirming care (like conversion or medical incarceration). The means for trans existence has never been safe under that institution’s control.

Every fresh piece of news about patriarchy’s backlash against trans liberation affirms what the radical among us have always known: if the means for our care is in any other hands but our own it cannot be relied upon and indeed may be used against us.

Don’t automatically assume that your elected officials will do the right thing because we know that half of them won’t and may try to capitulate under pressure. Call your elected officials and be a constant, unceasing pain in their ass. You elected them to work for you not the other way around.
hey, cis people. we need you to call every single elected official you've got, now.

“Calling for a ceasefire” when you’re the VP and running to be the president from that bully pulpit doesn’t have much weight when, they just kept letting arms leave the country to be used by the IOF.
