People keep telling me 47 won’t be so bad, that Democrats will immobilize him, ensuring he is a lame duck president. But… trans kids will always be Republicans’ low hanging fruit and Democrats first concession. See: National Defense Authorization Act’s (NDAA) healthcare exclusions for trans youth.

TCNE, Trans Community of New England, hosts its 44th annual First Event conference, Jan 29 -Feb 2 at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel. First Event is one of the longest-running conferences in the U.S. for transgender and gender-expansive people. tcne.org

Do NOT underestimate the damage that could come from eliminating the DOE, especially for our most oppressed populations.

The problem isn’t government waste. The problem is that billionaires don’t pay taxes.

Trump plans to weaken our military by discharging 15,000 trans personnel. His efforts to dehumanize trans people threaten everyone’s freedom. I hope this is bluster and doesnt come to fruition. www.attitude.co.uk/news/donald-...

Looking for LGBTQ – friendly YA books? These two by Klune are fantastic. Great characters and interesting plot. I listened to the audio versions and the character voices were excellent.

Fascists aren't just going after trans folks cause they hate trans ppl. They know for a fact that liberals won't risk anything real to protect trans ppl making it an easy way to legally accumulate power to use on everyone else. This is them sharpening their blade on them for y'all.

Holidays can be hard. Being misgendered and deadnamed during the holidays is harder. If someone you care about has new-to-you pronouns, start practicing now. Pro tip: practice telling stories about them using their pronouns, when you are alone. I do this when driving.

The 2016 memes still fit and the new ones are just as horrifying.

This woman is smart and strong. Her integrity is not up for debate and neither is her humanity. m.youtube.com/watch?v=w2ft...

Deeply moving, powerful new video from Sade, dedicated to her transgender son Izaak. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFMm...

McBride deserves more support from democrats.

This is such an interesting conversation about how men see themselves now and how they’re falling behind women in academics and certain skills. It gets at something going on in the culture. I recommend this for educators #EduSky podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i... @npr.org

I have a new article out today with colleagues @drmcquillan.bsky.social @harperkeenan.bsky.social @ftmathteacher.bsky.social, Bishop Owis, Christina Cook and Daniel Gallardo! We interviewed trans school workers and invited them to respond to this cultural moment: www.tandfonline.com/eprint/ZVP6D...

Seriously! The constant obsession with other people’s genitals, including children, is beyond creepy. www.teenvogue.com/story/nancy-...

This is despicable. The right to pee is a human right. These legislators aim to strip away McBride’s humanity along with her civil rights. This is the GOP playbook for all trans folx. And on TDOR. 😡 www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/u...

Time to trash turkey day. National Day of Mourning honors Indigenous ancestors and Native resilience. It is a day of remembrance and protest against the racism and oppression that Indigenous people continue to experience worldwide. Watch the livestream, November 28, 2024, at noon. www.uaine.org

I made a blocklist for some of the new showing up to troll anti trans folks. No oxygen for these schmoes! bsky.app/profile/did:...

Legislative Tracker for 2025 is up and running! You can check it out here: tracker.legialerts.org With 36 Anti-LGBTQ+ bills already introduced, we are in for another difficult year as a community. This is my third year doing this work so be sure to drop a follow to stay up to date on the latest.

Good morning, I'm trans. I'm ignoring news about who thinks trans people deserve rights & bodily autonomy. I'm focusing on being out & supporting trans ppl in my communities. Here's a list of resources, I forget who made it initially (sorry!) but it looks good. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” - James Baldwin

“In April 2023, NJ Gov. Phil Murphy signed an executive order protecting transgender health care.… Here’s the issue with executive orders: they can be eliminated with the stroke of a pen.” newjerseymonitor.com/2024/10/21/o...

Proud of my brother for producing this 3-part series of episodes for Outside/In at NH Public Radio. outsideinradio.org/what-remains Ed/research institutions have literally 1000s of skeletons/human remains in their closets. None of these people (mostly Black & Native ppl) consented to any of this.

Advocates for Trans* Law Students (ATLS) is the nation's first transgender law student advocacy group, aiming to provide support, community, and advocacy for TNBGNC students at Fordham Law School.

Make sure you are prepared!

This handsome kitten is looking for a forever home. He is vaccinated, neutered, and loves to snuggle. DOB: April.

In the end, each of us is small and insignificant.

The work, ‘Mil Veces un Instante (A Thousand Times in an Instant)’ by Mexican artist Teresa Margolles, is a moving symbol of grief and solidarity made up of hundreds of plaster casts of the faces of trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming people. www.timeout.com/london/news/...

To my cis friends, PFLAG is a great source for introductory information on trans experiences. It’s never too late to learn something new.

The Trans Sports Attacks Were Never About Sports Attacks on transgender participation in sports was never about sports, and always about getting people comfortable with discriminating against transgender people. www.erininthemorning.com/p/opinion-th... #transrights #feministsky

Trans families are afraid. Those with class privileges and generational wealth are planning exit strategies. Some are creating go fund me campaigns. Many will go into hiding, lose their health care, and worse.
