THE TRANS AGENDA IS TO KEEP MY F*CKING FRIENDS ALIVE by sol rios At 2pm and 2am. Sleep, I remember you. Please, wait for me. I send out 7 reminders to eat a day. Like little paper lifeboats. It's nothing. And it keeps me afloat. I forget to eat too. I need company for my shot. .3ml of Estradiol over facetime. I tell my friend I'm being a baby about it, she says woman up. Daylight savings swallows up the hour in question. π πΈπ’π΄ π¨π°πͺπ―π¨ π΅π° π΄πͺπ΅ πͺπ― π΅π©π¦ π£π’π΅π©π΅πΆπ£ πΆπ―π΅πͺπ πΊπ°πΆ π³π¦π΄π±π°π―π₯π¦π₯. And I need you to keep you alive for me. Just until Thursday. Just through to 6 am. I can send you 14 dollars for soup. I can lend you my ears. You'll need both hands to hold a heart. Your razor clinking against the counter. In a dream I almost slip into, I reach through the phone and hide the blade in my open palm, before you notice. Text me, I say. In the morning. I love you. I need you alive. We can figure out the rest tomorrow. With or without sleep. With or without the light of the morning.
A break from my usual antics? I was recently reminded of this poem by @pigeonculttt.bsky.social. I love it so much and it absolutely wrecks me every time I read it β€οΈβπ©Ήπ
We cannot and should not let generative AI take away these tiny, insignificant, but probably fun as hell jobs from artists
I didn't believe this so I looked it up and holy shit, it's true.
There is a literal pathway to life imprisonment if a trans person uses the bathroom 4 times in Idaho, if this bill fully passes.
1. The scientists behind the infamous ROGD/Social Contagion myth have released a new study called AYAGDOS, and are recruiting unsuspecting trans youth.
They're operating under Northwestern.
Community leaders need help spreading the word to avoid the study.

1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.
An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.
It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license.
They can't even escape this by moving to another state.
we are examining the night air
Thatβs awesome, and happy birthday!
not to wade into the discourse but [proceeds to wade into discourse] I don't think that a broad definition of trans people is why we lost Skrmetti, I think we lost because we live in a state whose main lawmaking body is a reactionary unelected council of nine people who decided that fascism is good
Iβve stepped back from social media. Life has taken precedence with focus on my health. There are things I miss, but I need to take care of me. In the meantime, I have limited #WynonnaEarp/#Vengeance signs kicking around. I wonβt be making more. If interested, message me. Iβll check dms.
1. Puerto Rico has enacted the most extreme trans ban in America, with a ban up to the age of 21 years old.
It may even have penalties for parents, according to local organizers.

There is only one possible ending to this story, and sports aren't the last chapter. I guarantee that if you haven't lost five decades of rights in two weeks, you have no idea what this feels like, so I'm begging you: protect trans kids right now with everything you've got.
One of the things you learn about systems of fascism when reading the history is how so much of the worst evil is perpetrated by people just trying to advance their careers. How many people will sign up for ICE positions simply for the paycheck or commit atrocities to advance their career?
With this vote, Congress makes ICE the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency in history, with more money per year at its disposal over the next four years than the budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, US Marshals, and Bureau of Prisons combined.
Hey everyone,

Over 100 days after Mahmoud Khalil was unjustly arrested and detained because of his advocacy for Palestinian rights, he has been released on bail.
We celebrate that Mahmoud will finally be home with his wife and newborn son while his case proceeds.

1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so.

"Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice we're willing to make."
They acknowledge the harms of trans youth being left untreated and then greenlight banning treatment. It's psychotic wanton cruelty.
What BS logic from the Supreme Court.
Trans care bans don't discriminate on transgender status. Rather, its GENDER DYSPHORIA that they target.
Not too many gender dysphoric cisgender people.
Breaking: Transgender people lose Skrmetti, SCOTUS rules that Tennessee's law banning gender affirming care is not subject to heightened scrutiny.
I'll be reading and reporting more fully today.
Terrible day for transgender people.

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.
MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States.
A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports.
This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.
Alright everyone, one last push.
If you or anyone you know is:
- LGBTQ+
- 13-24 years old
- In the US
Trevor Project is recruiting responses for their survey on LGBTQ+ mental health.
It has HUGE impacts on policy, please take it and share widely if you can :)
