I continue to speak out against every bill that attempts to remove trans people from public life. And I will continue to do so for as long as I draw breath.

I hope one day the government will leave my people alone.

I got a spanking in 3rd grade because I didn’t understand that there was work that the teachers expected me to finish before going outside for recess. I’m 33 and this was at a tiny Christian preschool-12th grade school.

This is a hell of a crowd size for a protest at the Treasury Department.

People do not like Elon.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

1. Multiple hospital systems are complying with an unlawful executive order with dubious enforcement mechanisms and pulling their trans kids off care.

While most have not, those that have are harming their trans patients.

A small handful of hospitals nationwide have put fear of President Trump over the needs of their transgender patients, and are withdrawing trans youth from care due to a recent executive order.

I hope SJSU wins it all. I’m 6’1 and in the volleyball world that was average or even SHORT for most players. It’s not about the sport. It’s not about concern for women or children. I won’t allow these lies to spread. Support the trans community and their ability to live their lives without fear.

Ladies and gentleman and vastly more interesting genders: we got him. We finally caught Schrodinger's cat.
It's a sliding glass door in a kitchen and on one side there's an empty box but it is lying on its side so that it's open. Face is tipped over. Then outside there is a cat sitting outdoors, looking inside, but the way the picture is composed the reflection of the box superimposes on the cat. So in one of the reflections it looks like the cat is in the box and the other box is empty

Friendly neighborhood biologist here. I see a lot of people are talking about biological sexes right now. Lots of folks make biological sex seem really simple. Well, since it’s so simple, let’s find the biological roots, shall we? Let’s talk about sex...[a thread]

Rarely does a single picture really illuminate that the modern Republican movement is not based on political theory. It is just a quest for absolute power and domination of those they see as inferior.

holy shit
shon faye's instagram story, just white caption on a black background: JKR misgendering a cis woman who was born and raised and treated as a girl in a patriarchal culture and talking about the "smirk of a male" like somehow there's some kind of nefarious attitude that flows directly from someone's chromosomal makeup....are we seeing how "gender critial feminism" is incoherent, paranoid, cruel nonsense? continued: you rarely meet a casual TERF. these people don't lightly terf on the weekends or have a bump of terfism on special occasions. the prominent ones devote their whole lives to the cause. the movement has a deeply obdsessie energy and a constant need for more rage and paranoia beecause it's a displacement mechanism...in many ways it seems to me very similar to addiction. nothing is ever enough. which is why they've managed to get furious about trans women at the olympics even when they've ensured there are none. the rage doesn't dissipate even when they achieve the goals they claim they're working towards - the obsession has to be fed constantly because it's not about trans women it's about the gratification of the obsessed.

PANEL 1: a fairly close-up shot of two pigeons. the one on the left is holding a pile of papers, and sheepishly says "i'm sorry, i can't spare a hand at the minute. i'm so busy!" to which the right one happily responds "that's ok. thanks anyway" PANEL 2: slight zoom out. the right pigeon is walking off frame. the left pigeon sighs in relief - the edge of something is pointing at them from beyond the left of the panel PANEL 3: pan out to show a small angel pigeon pointing a gun at the pigeon. the pigeon asks "happy?" and the angel replies "yes." PANEL 4: a small devil pigeon appears to the left of the angel pigeon, who says "your methods are extreme, but they get results!" the devil pigeon gives a thumbs up

A good self reminder, maybe useful for every artist (and not only).
Illustration of a tower split into two parts. The left side shows a complete, colored tower labeled "Everything you can do". The right side shows an incomplete, grayed-out tower with only a few colored bricks at the bottom, labeled "Everything you can do today".

This is a really interesting study -- thoughtful quant analysis around several important questions.

Tl;dr: book banning is primarily a conservative *galvanization* tactic

📚📜

P. 5:
A screenshot from page 5 of the paper "Book bans in political context: Evidence from US schools." The quote says, "Given the strong association between conservatism and book bans in contemporary media coverage, it is somewhat surprising that the counties banning books are less conservative (as proxied by presidential elections) than neighboring counties, in particular since the 2016 election. One way to resolve this apparent contradiction is to interpret book bans as a form of collective action whose primary motive is to galvanize an apparently shrinking voting bloc by appealing to “culture war” antagonisms around race, gender, and sexual identity, rather than (or in addition to) as a form of control directed at access to certain cultural and intellectual goods. From this perspective, we identify censorship as a strategy potentially used to mobilize conservative voters, rather than an authoritarian, top-down approach of suppressing information in the perceived interest of the state."

The coverage of Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s protest of Netanyahu in the chamber as he spoke mostly does not mention it is also her birthday today. To thank her for her courage, and for her birthday, today I donated to her campaign fund. secure.actblue.com/donate/rashi...
A screenshot of a tweet from Rep. Tlaib: Photo is of her, a Palestinian woman in a black jacket and keffiyah, with horn rim glasses and loose long black hair, beside a slightly taller Palestinian man in a dark double breasted suit. Text reads: Joining me in the chamber today is Hani Almadhoun, who has lost over 150 members of his extended family in Netanyahu's genocide. After witnessing his sister forced to eat animal feed, he and his family were determined to start a soup kitchen to feed their starving neighbors. Rep. Tlaib standing holding a sign that reads “Guilty of genocide” as her colleagues stand and applaud Netanyahu.
