as i've said before on how dems were shitty to queers like me in the 00s: *we still weren't the ones getting bombed*. people really can't wrap their head around the bombs. the bullets. the sheer scale of difference there.

the end effect of "look we're totally on your side but we just can't stand up for you right now, you're too much of a hot topic because republicans are attacking you" is "we will stand up for you, and fight for your rights, as soon as republicans pick a different target"

fascinating that only america and its chosen favorites get to have histories and historical figures that are nuanced and complicated and cannot be simply fully condemned. what a funny coincidence it works out that way.

This is so very sad. Joe Biden shouldn’t be sitting at home dying of cancer, he should be sitting in a cell in The Hague dying of cancer.

Hunter Biden recently said Joe Biden is reportedly in significant pain as cancer spreads to his bones. I’m wishing him strength, comfort, dignity…and precious time with those he loves.

for those who celebrate: it is the 20th anniversary of a funny dog eat a pepsi.

Of course the FTC filed the lawsuit against WPATH in the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth division. This will almost certainly end up before judge Reed O Connor. It's a joke that the federal government can openly judge and forum shop like this. www.ftc.gov/system/files...

The Trump led FTC is bringing a baseless lawsuit against WPATH, the medical body that produces the standards of care for transgender health. www.usnews.com/news/top-new...

Feel as though people will truly never understand his death. He was killed for being an Indigenous Queer Man with a Transgender Partner. Every single one of those signifiers on axis/intersections/marginalizations is extremely important, but it is in tandem all at once not just because he “Gay”.

We lost Jonathan Joss exactly One Year ago today. A neighbor burned his house, killed his dogs and shot him in the street for being Gay. Never forget Jonathan Joss. #KingOfTheHill #JohnRedcorn

This is going around on X, a new study by SEGM member Riittakerttu Kaltiala (the abusive head of a clinic in Finland) is getting picked up as proof that gender-affirming care doesn't work. The data actually shows something very different from what the authors claim. It's purposefully distorted. 🧵

I analyzed over 10 years of anti-trans legislation. Over 330 bills have passed, with ~300 of them in just the last 5 years. There is no precedent in American history for so many bills to target one particular minority group like this in such a short timeframe. www.thedissident.news/the-ratchet/

The Ratchet

In 2015, state legislatures across the United States considered 75 anti-LGBTQ bills, of which 27 targeted gender identity.1 In 2025, that total reached 1,059—with 851 of the current-session bills targ...

I am so sorry to ask but I'm trying to avoid homelessness and scrape by, if any of you comrades can help me even a little bit so I can pay some of my overdue rent it would be a massive relief for me, I'm short $350 right now. $natalierevolts on cashapp or paypal.me/natalierevolts

Kansas invalidated a trans woman's license even though she never changed her gender marker. It's not about the gender marker. It's about targeting trans people and making their lives unlivable.

Assigned Media@assignedmedia.org · 7mo ago

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

The United States is purposefully blockading Cuba from accessing fuel that powers everything from grocery stores to hospitals. People will die. Children will die. What's being done to the people of Cuba is monstrous. The people in power were ok with it in Gaza and now they're doing it to Cuba.

The US Is Pushing So Many Regime Change Agendas It's Hard To Keep Up It’s just incredible how quickly and aggressively the US is advancing longstanding agendas of global conquest under the Trump administration. Now they’re racing to take out Cuba. www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/the-us-is-...

americans, please: do not take the bait by resisting ICE yourselves. just give the democrats $20. they will give it to ICE so they can train more guys

Listen to Venezuelans! No, not the Venezuelans in the streets demanding Maduro's return. No, not the polls saying most people in Venezuela oppose US regime change. Those are the wrong Venezuelans. I meant listen to the Venezuelan talking to Fox News from his mansion in Miami.

We cannot survive another neoliberal president. We CANNOT *TOLERATE* Another neoliberal president. This is unlivable and inexcusable. If you think for one second voting blue no matter who will save us, you are LYING to yourself. THIS is what they do and we MUST fight to change them.

If you're wondering how cable news is reporting the US seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker, here's CNN saying, "This is absolutely normal."

I apologize for asking, I've been struggling trying to get by and could really use your help. I'm just wanting to pay my rent next month, I really need to pull together $400, if you have the means and can assist me even a bit with that I'd be incredibly grateful. I'll put my stuff below in a reply.

Teen Vogue eliminated all their Black and trans staff today. It's resegregation in real time.

Lex McMenamin (they/them)@lexmcmenamin.com · 11mo ago

today’s information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts. Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.

📰 Pyongyang Times: "Many countries are now propagating their cities as potential centres of the UN. As many have been disillusioned with the US dictating that everything should be subordinate to its interests [...] it has become a global trend to cope with its arbitrary practice."

They Said Boys Weren't Supposed To Play With Dolls. They Never Said Anything About Would It Be Okay If A Boy Became To Be A Doll. Not That I Becamed A Doll Or Anything (Due To For Example Touching A Ancient Bewitched Doll In The Haunted Doll Shop (I'm A Boy So Obviously I Wasn't In There))

Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

Miss Major has passed away. We've lost an icon for the ages. Rest in power.
