Happy International day of Transgender Visibility! All my homies say Trans Rights are Human Rights / anyone who's cool knows it too. We see you out there. Choose to be yourself and know that we have your back. Much love and respect today (and every day)! 🏳️‍⚧️ #transrights #transdayofvisibility

It's Trans Day of Visibility and we want to say how much we appreciate the trans people in our cast and crew who, in the midst of a cultural siege, loaned us their talents. Trans people have always been part of shaping our arts and culture, and we will always uplift and include them in our stories.

There is no human future in cruelty. To every transgender person in the world: we see you. You deserve to be remembered at your very best, unburdened by hatred, and free in every way that matters. From now until that day, and beyond, we are right beside you.

Minneapolis is headed towards something resembling a general strike, if you were wondering how the campaign to cow working people into quiescence is going

Last night, The Minneapolis Federation of Educators Local 59 signed on to the call for a Jan 23 shutdown. That brings total labor support to: the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 1005, SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, CWA Local 7250, St. Paul Federation of Educators Local 28, and the MFE 59

if you haven't read jezebel's 2018 coverage of the listserv where 400+ "left-of-center" transphobic "journalists" methodically orchestrated the current moment, it's a good companion to the TNN interview: www.jezebel.com/private-mess...

Trans News Network@transnews.network · 7mo ago

In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

Folks, over at our Patreon, we’re looking back at the year, what went wrong, and what is still to come. The most important parts are: we could not continue without you, we *intend* to continue, and we have the season two theme to share with you. Happy new year. Survive out of spite.

While I'm both thinking about this and recommending podcasts,let me tell yoh that @observableradio.com is really good too

I consume most of my horror in audio format these days and one thing anthology podcasts have brought home to me is that the horror I'm most affected by is always body snatcher type stuff. I refuse to examine why that is.

New insult to life itself just dropped

Hey folks, for a series of boring logistical reasons, we need to start numbering our Interim Season (short stories by one reader) as "Season Two" in your pod catchers. Our next full anthology series will begin as "Season Three". But it's just numbers and signifiers. It holds no inherent meaning.

I have been informed that there’s another important holiday in October, so please feel free to listen to our latest episode as a Halloween episode as well.

If you listened to this story last night, you listened to it on exactly the date and time it took place in 1962. This means something. For the rest of you, there’s still time to enjoy @purpurinastitch.bsky.social reading a cozy small town tale of alternate history and philosophical disagreements.
