Had coffee with a transmedicalist once. Only I didnt know at first. She was a friend of a friend.

But when she started going on about how you aren't really trans until you've had all the surgeries, I was stunned.

I'd heard about these types. 1st one I met in the wild.

Yeah, no. Not a way to be.

BREAKING: We're joining over 120 organizations issuing a travel advisory to warn anyone visiting the U.S. for the 2026 FIFA World Cup of possible civil and human rights violations.

FIFA must pressure the Trump administration to protect the people traveling to and working at the games.

Trans people get enough shit from cis people already.

Brianna advocating eugenics is just plain evil.

If AI is so great, remove it from everything where it's been implemented without user consent and make it a user pays subscription service and see how many people REALLY want it

Screenshot of a social media post by Brianna Wu (@BriannaWu) that reads: "One of my biggest hopes for the future is that we can come up with some sort of test in utero to determine if a child is going to grow up to be transsexual, and then opt them out of the gene pool. It's, I can tell you firsthand, it's a horrific way to grow up, one that no ethical person should want to inflict on a child. The reason the trans community is so unstable online is the developmental damage that we invariably get. It's like a house being built where every floor is leaning, and by the time you get to the top, the entire structure is unstable. Repairing that damage has taken me a lifetime."

Brianna Wu advocates for the extermination of trans people by engaging in eugenicist selective abortions of fetuses determined to be trans.

Multiple peer reviewed studies in high impact journals have shown a substantial benefit of gender affirming care for trans youth. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon's penis for "further study" says this care is dangerous. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

And then in twin peaks the return

Transitioning means going from being excluded from the boys club and not knowing why to being excluded from the boys club and knowing why

Ava @likeClockwork If you ask a closeted trans girl what superpower shed rather have 9 times out of 10 its going to be shapeshifting, but ask her again a couple years into her transition and she'll say teleportation and I dont think 1 have to explain why 6:33 PM: 05 Jun 22 . Twitter for iPhone

Pretty accurate.

Coming out as trans can be scary as fuck, and all of the worst people want us to be so scared that we won’t do it. But we keep doing it anyway because we deserve it, because it’s what is best for us, and because fuck them

“Vote blue, but it actually matters who” is the lesson of the last four decades

A weak democrat is effectively just another republican as a matter of how the government truly functions

i’m a little late to this one, but i’d say seeing an increase in the number of broken down cars on the side of the road. it shows people don’t have enough money for regular maintenance and/or an emergency tow. i saw tons between 2008-2011ish.

Montana Supreme Court Rules Its Constitution Entirely Protects Trans Citizens In Landmark Ruling The ruling will have enormous impacts for transgender residents in the state.

1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people.

The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work.

This is going to affect a lot more cis people than trans people - but we need to remember that none of this is about "protecting (cis) women and girls". They dont CARE about that. They just want to hurt trans people.

If the bathroom police harass 20 cis people for every trans person, then so be it.

This is so common it has a name.

One of my last dentists found out I was trans and treated me differently afterwards. Everything was more rough and he didnt let the novocaine set in before working. Before he found out, everything was normal.

Why did my *dentist* need to know i was trans?!?!

I didnt go back.

Orban's inability to prevent last year's Pride protests—attended by 300k despite being banned—was a turning point in his authoritarian grip of the country.

Queer people are always leading the fight against authoritarianism, as we are often its first targets. Never cower to fear.

The thing is, Lucas thought that disputes over taxation of trade routes would lead to fascism and the fall of democracy.

But in reality, fascism and the fall of democracy lead to disputes over the taxation of trade routes.

Reality is stupider.

Surprised JD Vance wasn't able to close a deal with the Iranians. His only skill is saying whatever people want to hear.

How Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Vaccine Agenda Risks a Resurgence of Deadly Childhood Plagues The health secretary is spreading doubts about vaccine safety and considering changes that could prompt manufacturers to flee the U.S. market. History has shown how plagues from the past can roar back...

The success of the U.S. vaccination system depends on two fundamental pillars: parents trusting in vaccines and children having access to them.

Under RFK Jr., both are in peril.

Amy and her wife left Florida and moved to Chicago, some time after the Artemis I launch. She flew back to Florida for the Artemis II launch.

To get ahead of this one:

1. We did not spend $2M on our church, thank Christ

2. We don't live in ours, we use it as an office, a gathering place and as a sanctum in which we offer sacrifices to Bea Arthur, as prophesized in the forbidden tomes

An official statement from Nestle appealing for information as to who has nicked 12 tonnes of KitKats.

Have a break. Have 12 Tonnes of KitKat.

Remember, kids, Nestle is literally the company who literally told African mothers that their breast milk wasn't good enough in order to sell more formula.

Don't be a snitch, now.

For those that celebrate,
Happy "First Contact" Day.

Biological sex does not mean "the thing we assume you are based on your genitals observed at birth." It's mostly a misnomer, but insofar as it describes anything real at all, it's a collection of biological attributes, many of which can be changed with HRT. It's neither binary nor immutable.
