The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!
survey.gendercensus.com
It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

“what if my fic isn’t good 😭” what if it’s good? what if it comforts someone? what if it becomes someone’s favorite work? what if you find people who enjoy the same things as you? so what if it ends up being bad, what if it brings you joy?

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

This whole thread.
Either you respect trans people and their right to self-identify, regardless of how despicable you find an individual, or you don’t. You don’t get to conditionally revoke and weaponize someone’s identity when you think they’re a piece of garbage.

Can't believe I have to say this, but this horrific & nonsensical document is not your carte blanche to do a "gotcha" on Caitlin Jenner by deadnaming her. Jenner will never see your skeet & wouldn't care if she did. But other trans people will see it & know your allyship is conditional. It's gross.
BREAKING: Here is the anti-trans sex/gender executive order. It's extensive, it's bad, and it's often lawless. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
And, do not miss in "d" and "e" below, it even tries to put in the beginnings of a personhood argument, for some reason.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?
hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.
Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

Trump’s anti-trans Executive Order is bad BUT it technically defines everyone as female. It states:
“'Female' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell."
Since all fetuses "at conception" are female, Trump just defined EVERYONE as female.

One solid way you can fight back today & everyday is to look out for your neighbor, & not just in theory. If you’re in LA, someone in your building probably needs a mask. Someone living outside probably needs a meal. That person being stopped by the cops needs someone to record what’s happening.
The way forward is the same as it’s always been - organize your neighborhood, your household, your workplace. Nobody is coming to save us except ourselves. Look out for one another.

Y'all.... I just watched a Tiktok that mentioned Gen Alpha will be able to vote in 2028.
That Tiktok message was not for you or me...it was for the kids.

I genuinely believe that the salute was a pulse check to see what they’ll be able to get away with, and the media seems to be letting them know it’s everything.
Don’t let your craven non-confrontational nature allow you to ignore the obvious (hand) signs.
