The Heritage Foundation is urging the FBI to see speech in favor of trans rights as an incitement to violence. Perfectly normal day in our great country. Plus, schools are finding out how cruel anti-trans laws impact their students, and an inspiring effort to help poor trans people afford hormones.

Nice post you got there, it'd be a shame if I deliberately missed your point so I could be tedious about it

Time to luer lock in.

I do not care why you're autistic. I want to know if you're capable of committing to an 18-month TTRPG campaign that keeps a regularly scheduled weekly game lasting between 3-4 hours.

Debating the cause of autism is the wrong fight in some ways. I actually do not care if it's Tylenol, genes, epigenetics, or age of the carrying parent. I do not see autism as aberrant and have little interest in the etiology, because the emergence of autism for me is unremarkable.

I have two interests

many ppl highlighting flaws in this article. but having fought in the "80% desistance" wars of the mid-2010s, I remember asking anti-trans activists if they'd be ok if 80% of youth were helped by gender-affirming care (flipping their argument). & they *never* answered. b/c they want *zero* trans ppl

No particular reason

I need Pitt season 2 asap

So, I recently moved and multiple things were destroyed in the move, including one of my monitors, the stand for my other monitor, and my desk. If you want to help me replace these items which I need to write, you can donate to my Kofi or Patreon. Thank you 💜 dax.ink/tip dax.ink/patreon

This is why science comms is critical. You could look at the deMayo et al study and easily overlook the fact that shift in gender change among trans youth was not towards cisgender identities. AND a significant number of youths assumed to be cis ended up being TGD

Charlie Kirk was one of the biggest advocates for protecting access to gender affirming care for trans adolescents

This is a really great idea, though.

Buried details: the 18% of kids whose identities shifted over the course of the study were overwhelmingly between binary trans and non-binary or vice versa. The number who shifted between binary cis and trans was very low indeed - out of a subset of 254, precisely *one* kid shifted in this way.

As soon as I get this funded, I promise to stop posting completely.

I've run out of compelling things to write here.

free tv ad for anyone who wants to primary jeffries lol

Is this “movement” in the room with us right now?

My B for skimming while in the train. Made the mistake of following the smoke.

there is a man standing outside YOUR door right now. he's holding a medieval poleax and he's going to rip you to absolute shreds with it. please subscribe to my newsletter for more updates about the man

The time to listen to trans people was 10 years ago but, you know, you can start any time you're ready.

Unfortunately several trans and lib reporters on here make their money by scaring the shit out of trans people

Cis folks. Donate, because if you can’t stand up trans folks you can at least find us.

Hakeem Jeffries voted for Charlie Kirk Day but still isn’t sure if he’ll endorse Zohran Mamdani. This is why the approval rating of the Democratic Party is lower than Trump’s or the GOP.

"She was detained without formal charges or conviction, following a nuisance violation related to a mental health crisis." bad world

Katelyn burns took aim at one of the most abusive and problematic surgeons in PA, and did a huge amount of work to bring attention to that surgeon’s dangerous practices. Her work is incredibly well researched and she aims to inform, not whip up fear to elevate her own brand.

So many people said I was being an alarmist because I called this shit back in February. And you know what, it will get worse again. And trans people will warn the world about what’s next. Still we’ll be ignored and then, once again I will say I told you so.

Yesterday, Air Force One: Trump said the quiet part out loud… He threatened to yank broadcast licenses from networks that criticize him. “They’re giving me all this bad press, and they’re getting a license. I would think maybe their license should be taken away.”

Open science is not just for researchers. Artist @kindracrick.com created these beautiful neuron portraits with inspiration from Ramón y Cajal's drawings and reference images from our Cell Types Database. #OpenScienceWeek

you can’t even call the senate minority leader a sentient flaccid dick anymore, because of woke

2 teens arrested in possible hate crime assault on WA transgender woman www.fox13seattle.com... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Over the last several months, Members of Congress have used increasingly derogatory anti-trans language, and now, 2 Members are calling for trans people to be institutionalized. Speaker Johnson & GOP leadership must reign in these extremist Members & put a stop to this rhetoric.

Play them down? That would suggest they’re actually talking about them in any substantive way in the present.

Dr. Susan Monarez: “I could have stayed silent, agreed to the demands, and no one would have known. What the public would have seen were scientists dismissed without cause and vaccine protections quietly eroded…I would have lost the one thing that cannot be replaced: My integrity.”

One week ago—with half an hour of notice given to the union, and in the midst of bargaining for our second contract—the National Women’s Law Center announced it would be eliminating 20% of staff, laying off 32 of our colleagues (including 21 members of our unit).

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

While I get the urges, it feels important to not undersell the administration’s power, just as it’s equally important to not oversell it. A few months ago the common liberal reframe was “they can’t do X, that’s against the APA” or similar sentiments.

Tragically fitting that the ultimate legacy of allowing fascists who hate our educational institutions to host unlimited speaking engagements on campuses for decades is the end of all speech at universities that fascists don’t personally agree with. Your student bodies warned you the whole time.

Please donate. Every donation I get will help me to afford an education that will further empower me to fight for my community.

Kandel compared Trump to Hitler in 2016 is really all you need

from my latest: "The trans-shooter myth largely began circulating in 2023 around the Nashville shooting, 'as the right began rolling back LGBTQ rights in earnest'... Two years later, and just a decade after the so-called trans tipping point, anti-trans harassment and violence is all the rage."

There will never come a day I'd choose to be cis. I would choose trans every time. The only thing I wish is that I had access to the means of realization and embodiment that I needed as a teenager. But I choose trans because so many of the principles I live by have been integral to my transness.

No matter what happens I’m so glad I got to be trans. I’m so proud that I figured out what was wrong with me and was brave enough to fix it. I’m so grateful I got to share myself with so many amazing people. I’m so blessed I got to look in the mirror and feel love for the person staring back.

This is in a sense, a core aspect of Mbembe’s Necropolitics
