Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”

Oh look, it's the thing every fascist government says about the opposition party before they dissolve them and turn the country into a one party state.

Bostock is being whittled away right in front of our eyes. The federal government can't outright fire trans people outside of the military but they can make the conditions so bad as to constructively fire all trans employees by removing healthcare coverage and enforcing bathroom and pronoun bans.
20 Aug 25 -- Trump admin quietly enacts new ban of reimbursement for gender related care through fed govt's largest health insurer regardless of age. 8m fed & 2m postal employees of which ~14k are trans -- will be affected. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social
Trump quietly bans federal health insurance from covering gender-affirming care
The largest federal health insurance provider now bans coverage for gender-affirming care, but allows "faith-based counseling."

The DOJ subpoenas to providers of gender affirming care wanted the therapy notes, social security numbers, and addresses of patients. This is an unprecedented and disgusting violation of medical privacy.

Government’s demand for trans care info sought addresses, doctors’ notes, texts
Legal experts said the Justice Department subpoenas related to medical care for transgender minors appear to be unprecedented.

As of last year the population of Wyoming was 587,618, and it's the least populated state in the US.

Just for context on how fucked up this arrangement is.

"So I asked chatGPT and-" sad, uninspired, lacking whimsy, I just lost so much respect for you

"So I asked my autistic friend who's special interest overlaps this topic-" based, full of whimsy, you have gained my respect and admiration

Feels like "payment processor Stripe admits to being an anti LGBTQ hate group" should be an actual headline somewhere.
and to be clear, i was very clear in asking "can i use stripe for purchases of LGBT content" and both times, different operators have told me that Stripe does not support such transactions

theyre not even playing the "oh our brand doesnt discriminate!" song and dance

My wife and I watched the first two episodes of aliens earth last night and really liked it

I then watched a discord group full of "super fans" whine and moan about how it was the worst thing they had ever seen

New iterations are okay, not all media has to die after the original gets popular

More and more people reporting today that Stripe - the payment processor that Itch said were putting the most pressure on them - now have staff actively confirming that yes, they are censoring LGBT content, adult or otherwise. That this is official company policy.

This seems kinda significant.

I was the bully bully. If I heard someone was being a bully, I would bully them.
The school hated it. Every time they called me in, I always told them if they weren't beating up other kids I wouldn't have had to touch them. Then I would tell them how I was better at keeping kids safe than they were.
Things that have never worked for me against bullies: eloquently describing my pain, confronting them about how they want me dead, letting them know they are a bad person

Things that have reliably worked: “okay whatever”, laughing at them, “fuck you, no”

Seems relevant this week/month/year
