it will never be easier to fight for trans rights than it is right now.

Rahm Emanuel's coverup of Laquan McDonald's death can't be forgotten

Democrats can embrace police reform or Rahm Emanuel as ambassador to Japan — but not both.

This is the ninth (9th) major profile of Emanuel since December 2024 that failed to mention Laquan McDonald.

Be a transphobe? Look, I get that she may be slightly less of a ghoul than Vivek, because who isn’t? But please do NOT say she has character & what is more CRUEL than going out of your way calling 🏳️‍⚧️ girls boys? Fucking c’mon people. Pick her as your “lesser evil” if you feel, but she’s no hero.

Amy Acton’s mother is a vile ghoul who deserves nothing good in this life or the next, child survivors have the right to speak their harm and not have an abusive parent deny their experiences… and also Amy Acton is transphobic, and spreading dangerous rhetoric. Both things are true.

Got to say it's one thing when dems turn on trans people. Its another when they literally laugh at us while doing it.

Democratic congresswoman Kathy Castor of FL-14 becomes the latest anti-transgender Democrat. When asked if she supports "biological males in girls sports," she cheerfully and forcefully says "THE ANSWER IS NO!" with a huge smile on her face, laughing. The number keeps growing.

It's OK to hate the people who voted for this.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

Last I'll post about this, but Elon Musk disagrees with me. This means I am onto something, and I feel more valid in my opinion than ever.

Trans people need us. Let's show up for Austin! Last year, we helped @distributeaid.org raise $15,000 for direct trans mutual aid, funding hundreds of years of HRT supplies delivered straight to our community. Donate $20 for $400 worth of RPGs and help us do it again! itch.io/b/3971/austi...

look if shit is so dire for the democrats that they NEED every vote from trans people, maybe they shouldn't run candidates who are transphobic or fold on even the slightest pushback to trans rights it's not our fault y'all's guys suck

Unfortunately there are people who care about trans people having rights who are not trans people themselves and I’m sure that the number will suddenly grow exponentially post election when candidates have lost and you’re looking for someone to blame that isn’t the candidates themselves

if you use Xitter in 2026, I am contractually obliged to assume it’s because you are terminally addicted to cranking it to videos of mass shootings and women crushing small animals in high heels and are simply too chickenshit to admit it

It's kind of hard to hash out ideological differences when one or more of the people involved believe the fakest shit that has ever been posted online.

Every person dead, every family separated, every community terrorized, and every dissenter targeted and persecuted. There’s more than a million reasons to dismantle DHS.

A colleague of mine in Winnipeg has started Lead with Diversity Press, and I wanted to spotlight Monster, an anthology of 16 dark fantasy and horror stories by 14 writers of color. It's a great idea and I hope interest creates more of it. leadwithdiversitypress.com/monster/

I’ve only been shouting about this for 15 years but glad it’s finally getting some traction.

It's not even the ethics of it. My career, my hobbies, my free time, hell, my whole life took off once I fully left Twitter. It is a place to go if you want to be stuck in a neverending race war feedback loop. Like not using ChatGPT, not using Twitter is a superpower. Remain employable; stay off it.

Jacob T. Levy@jacobtlevy.bsky.social · 2w ago

I am way too online for my own good, and I had an unreasonably large twitter following, and I really *enjoyed* twitter for a lot of years, and yet leaving there and never looking back was maybe the easiest what-felt-like-a-big-ethical decision I've ever made.
