A screenshot of a mobile Google search results page in dark mode for the query "Kansas trans". Under the heading "News about Kansas," there is a list of four news articles: ​An article from the Kansas City Star, published 13 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas informs trans residents their driver’s licenses become invalid on Thursday". The thumbnail shows a sample Kansas driver's license. ​An article from The Independent, published 7 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas sends letters to trans drivers demanding the immediate surrender of their licenses over birthright law". The thumbnail shows small pride flags on desks inside a legislative chamber. ​An article from The Topeka Capital-Journal, published 7 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas invalidates IDs and birth certificates of transgender people". The thumbnail features a close-up of colorful pride flag stickers. ​An article from Erin In The Morning, published 16 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas Sends Letters To Trans People Demanding The Immediate Surrender Of Drivers Licenses". The thumbnail is a nighttime photo of a state capitol building illuminated in pink and red lights.

A day later and no major national news org has covered what they're doing in Kansas.

This is the flip side of the hyper focus on trans issues by the right. The national media ignores what's actually being done to trans people.

This erasure is what contributes to the persecution.

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Bad Bunny in a field Light poles behind him

For those unaware about the significance of the light poles during the song El Apagón it’s because of the Puerto Rican power system and the constant black outs. There have been a lot of protests on the island over this.

I cannot emphasize enough that what he's singing here, obscured by beeps, is "If your boyfriend doesn't eat your ass, he'd better fuck off"

A white woman with light brown hair has her back facing the camera. She looks over her shoulder at the design on her back with an inscrutable smile. The cream colored sweatshirt she wears reads, “MAKE HEAVEN CROWDED” in multicolored block lettering with little doodles of hearts, stars, and flowers around it.

Christian Clothing CEO: You finish that sweatshirt about saving as many souls as possible?
Christian Clothing Designer: Sure did, boss. Real fuckin’ ominous and with an implied threat of mass murder, just like you asked.
Christian Clothing CEO: What.

Chicago Theatre SOOOOOO White, Still: Part 2 The sexy yet CRINGEWORTHY data

Sooo I made a spreadsheet of all of the majority white or all white casts that happened in the past year in Chicago theatre. AND IT IS ROUGH.

You ever get sick of dating people who cannot communicate clearly(aka my last year).

Take my advice: date a social worker. Cause PHEW, IS CLEAR COMMUNICATION HOT AF!!!!!

Esp since the emotions of being misgendered many times over three days is finally catching up with me.

I sat through EPA’s this week and constantly had actors walk in the room saying “hey ladies!” which was jarring. I feel weird correcting actors in that moment cause it can really throw them off as they go into their monologue so for the love of goddexx, DE-GENDER YOUR LANGUAGE.

we all have an emotional support dead famous guy and who he is says a lot about you

why is every person I’ve recently dated (5 since mid January) awful at communicating.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

I made you spiral cause I didn’t respond to a single text. That seems like a you problem.
