The distracted boyfriend meme with Hungarian elections as the hot new girl, American people as distracted boyfriend and Trump Regime as resentful girlfriend.

Yeah, feeling a little jealous of Hungary, tbh.

(…the news industry being as institutionally hostile, exclusionary, and harmful to trans people *of course* is going to result in eroding trust that trans readers might extend to cis journalists…)

Trans Leaders Speak in Chicago at Showing of Heightened Scrutiny — Assigned In the midst of national attacks on trans people, the Chicago Teachers’ Union hosted a screening of the documentary Heightened Scrutiny and gave local trans speakers an opportunity to speak.

icymi: was in Chicago this past Thursday for a showing of @samfeder.bsky.social's new film Heightened Scrutiny, as well as a panel put on by the fantastic folks at @transupfrontil.com and @ctulocal1.bsky.social

check out my coverage on @assignedmedia.org here: www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

Reynolds signs Iowa law barring local trans civil rights protections City and county civil rights commissions may no longer protect Iowans from gender identity-based discrimination under a law signed by Gov. Reynolds.

The first state in the US to remove statutory protections for an entire class, gender identity, has just enacted a bill preventing local municipalities from having their own protections for trans people.

Social media misleads young on gender transitioning, says UK review leader Hilary Cass, who led youth gender identity services review, warns of ‘unrealistic images and expectations’

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Feb 15 Guardian
Hilary Cass welcomes new UK DoE anti-trans school policies, asserting that social transitions can "lock [kids] on to a trajectory," agreeing schools must generally out trans kids to parents, and suggesting social media is turning kids transgender.

This is amazing, Julie!

Experts Warn U.S. in Early Stages of Genocide Against Trans Americans Genocide scholars say policies targeting transgender Americans match early warning signs of mass atrocity.

This has now become Important Context’s biggest story ever.

So where is Bari Weiss, that great defender of free speech?

“For years, the political right has been ratcheting up eliminationist rhetoric against transgender Americans and dismissing their identities as ideology. At the 2023 CPAC, conservative commentator Michael Knowles called to “eradicate” so-called “transgenderism” from public life.”

Senate Republicans tie healthcare subsidies to abortion limits The government shutdown is on track to end with no resolution for expiring healthcare subsidies, and Democrats say Republicans want an abortion ban.

Pay close attention: the GOP and Trump are going to go hard against abortion rights. This maneuver on ACA subsidies is just the beginning.

One sheet for documentary film "Heightened Scrutiny." An upside down supreme court building hangs guillotine-like above the thumbnails of filmmaker Sam Feder and the guest speakers Lilly Wachowski (me,) Crispin Torres, Mickey R Mahoney and AllienSteve Mullen.

join me and my pals at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social where i'll be bringing my patented run-on sentences and cul-de-sac musings to this panel for new doc by the brilliant @samfeder.bsky.social

Chicago friends - don’t miss @LillyWachowski.bsky.social, @SamFeder.bsky.social and friends at a special Heightened Security documentary screening and Q&A!

Just got the chance to watch @heightenedscrutinydoc.com by @samfeder.bsky.social at UW Simpson Center for the Humanities. @chasestrangio.bsky.social is a f-ing hero and the @aclu.org is doing kickass work even when the odds are stacked against us. Looking for shreds of hope.

I just left a screening of @samfeder.bsky.social’s movie, followed by a Q&A with him that included the lovely @lillywachowski.bsky.social.

This a wonderful, important film. If it is screening anywhere near you make the effort to see it. If it is not, request it!

Just saw an important documentary at the Siskel Film Center—“Heightened Scrutiny.” Very much enjoyed it and the conversation afterward with its director, @samfeder.bsky.social
