KOSA is now in red alert priority. Please contact your representatives, dem and gop alike, and demand they oppose KOSA We need to turn out in numbers against this!

also if your senator is Rand Paul: definitely give him some positive reinforcement cuz he was the only GOP to break from the rest and vote against the bill. the more repubs we can tear away from bad policies, the better. for those with Fetterman + Catherine Masto tho, fucking yell at those losers

most of the time we're yelling at these dorks cuz we're trying to steer them away from bad behavior, but when they do the correct thing (in this case, opting for a govt shutdown rather than just swallowing everything the GOP wants them to) we SHOULD give them some positive feedback

when you make your calls today, continue to hammer that trans healthcare cannot be thrown under the bus for the sake of business as usual, and that KOSA must be opposed however, additionally, if your senator voted against the funding plan, I think you should tell them "thank you".

Steve Scalise (202) 225-3015 scalise.house.gov/contact/offi... Mike Johnson (202) 225-2777 mikejohnson.house.gov/contact/ yes it works!! We were able to stop KOSA last year because of the House GOP not supporting it

Are you kidding me right now? This is the last thing we need. KOSA is back no thanks to Senator Blumenthal who is working with the GOP and bringing in Republican Senators to convince the House to support it. Please, CALL GOP House leadership and tell them to keep opposing it!

Please call your reps about KOSA today. Especially if they're Republican. This is THE priority

I think @acvalens.net really nailed it on stream the other day, it's pretty apparent that Bsky just hates the userbase they ended up with. They didn't get the people they wanted, so they'd prefer that we leave. They'd rather tank their success than keep their users because they resent who they got.

As a matter of self-respect in the face of a really antagonistic leadership, I’m going to revert Bluesky use back to announcement / update posting No more active presence, just posting relevant news & updates I just can’t in good faith use this site actively anymore. Staff is so disingenuous

An attempt will be made... Day 1: Tomboy Using @lekroox.bsky.social 's #bonktober69 List!

❗ Quick reminder that age verification on Bluesky is fully client side! Meaning you can easily get around it! More on it here! gist.github.com/mary-ext/6e2... #bluesky #age #verification #bypass 👇 Repost so people who need it will find this post! 👇

Today your voices were heard. We will need to be loud throughout the shutdown and continue to put pressure: No anti-LGBTQ+ provisions in the final negotiated bill. Only clean bills that don't throw trans and queer people under the bus. Kicked butt today y'all. Good work.

Again, please PLEASE don't listen to cis journalists saying that this isn't an emergency. The more pressure we put on Dems now, the more trans people we can potentially save.. Don't give up because some white cis guy said it "isn't so bad." Please listen to the trans people asking for you to call.

#SaveSpeech The vote on Chat Control is in October, I believe, and there's only 7 countries opposed. But there's a whole lot more that are undecided since this all started. I know it's felt a lot like 1 step forwards, 2 steps back. But keep calling and mailing, please! Fightchatcontrol.eu

Haunted by the ghosts of #sENFtember day 30: Ghost hands! getting that 2am glass of water is taking longer and longer lately... 👻 #sENFtember2025

#sENFtember Days 25, 26, 27 and 28

OHIO: know your rights! This message from bluesky is a LIE! You, an individual, are NOT required by the law to verify your age. Bluesky is required to have you verify your age IF it detects that you are in Ohio. if it does not detect that you are there, YOU DO NOT NEED TO VERIFY! vpn use is legal!

The Governor of North Dakota knows the age-verification law he signed doesn't work. He doesn't care. Porn is still easily accessible online, including to minors. Meanwhile, North Dakotans trying to access Bluesky are forced to show their papers.

So I was working on something special with Kneesocks but the program seems to have glitched out. She dosent seem to be happy with the current situation at all. Part of @retropunch.bsky.social SENFtember 2025 list, hope yall had fun^^

remember to contact your representatives and yell about these bills and issues! its so easy, trust me!

#SaveSpeech we have 15 days to to get enough countries to oppose Chat Control and block it before it will be voted upon [Oct 14th]. if you are in the EU, yell at your MEPs! Even if your country already opposes, REINFORCE THAT. And if your country is undecided or supporting? YELL EXTRA HARD.

wanted to post this for the finale too; my sketch page for the entire month of senftember. everything that i did this month started as a sketch on here (tho some changed after making their way to their own canvases). its really fun to see how the entire month looked in one place

#sENFtember Day 29 - Loose #sENFtember2025 #enf Combining Loose and Ghost Hands into a 2 part comic. Evelyn loosens the bikinis of Jessie and Alice and takes advantage of the situation to embarrass them! Find out what happens next in Day 30 - Ghost Hands!

#sENFtember2025 DAY 30: GHOST HANDS 🙌 👻 Bustin does NOT make Sylva feel good D:

this would prove to be some of the most important evidence of the spectral for generations. everyone has seen it at this point. — #senftember2025 - day 30 - ghost hands #nsfwart

I think that the worst thing that Trump did aside from all the authoritarian shit was give people, especially conservatives, permission to be their worst possible selves. They're no longer bound by morality or care about decency or their hypocrisy. Facts and kindness are the new counter culture.

I'll put this marker down now: if we go into a shutdown and Dems actually hold the line and don't immediately cave, their poll numbers will go up 90% of the reason their numbers are so low with non-Rs is they've managed exactly zero concrete opposition so far

Hanging free for #sENFtember day 29:Loose! "I tied it tighter, i swear i did!!" 🏐😭🏐 #sENFtember2025

Clang clang!

📣🐦‍⬛ real artists making cool shit! 🎨🌈 🧵(1/6)

and if trans people aren't enough for you to get up and moving (they should be, what the HELL is wrong with you!!) know that it's not just trans people who are on the line, even if they're at the front of it. this is just as much about human rights as much as it is about trans rights specifically

Heads up from Canada. There's a new bill that will expand surveillance and threatens privacy. If you're a Canadian citizen, contact your MPs and tell them to vote against Bill C-2. #SaveSpeech Find your MPs: www.ourcommons.ca/en/contact-us

Calling your local reps gets a LOT easier after you've done it a few times and it really does take less than a minute most of the time because the person on the other line is just there to tally up what you're saying. Think of the calls like a chore or errand and do them alongside those.

right-wing politicians, especially those in state positions, may be assholes, but they are also cowards. use this to your advantage

I don’t speak on this very often, but I urge you to call. If this goes through, it won’t just be federal funding that stops for gender affirming care. It’s federal money now, but insurance companies follow what they’re allowed to do and if they’re allowed to drop us, they will. Please call.

hi, cis folks! trans people need your help! the FY26 budget gets a vote by 9/30. GOP wants a ban on funds for ALL health services that provide trans care for ANY AGE. they're trying for other bans, too. we need you to call senators like chuck who don't get it: reps.fyi info & script in the🧵⬇️

American friends, I know life has been very overwhelming in the past few months, but right now is the time to act. All of our trans friends need you! CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES!! You can follow the script on the thread🧵! It will take you 5-10 min. We need to be loud: TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS

The stopgap measure being voted on today to try to avoid govt shutdown includes a provision that could strip ALL federal funding from any institution/facility providing access to any form of gender-affirming care, for anyone of any age. Call. We will grow old together.

I did not get through to Schumer’s office and left a message. But I did get a human being at Gillibrand’s office, so Dylan’s supposition applies there as well. New Yorkers, her office is at 212-688-6262.

1. There's a lot of confusion about this out there. Let me make it easier: There are two ways to keep the government open: The full FY26 appropriations bill for the entire year, and a continuing resolution to keep it open for a few months at current levels. Both are part of negotiations right now.

As someone who knows people who work in pink news: Do not trust pink news. Their entire business model is built around panic and fear for trans people and explicitly trans women.

"Oh but my congressmen is a republican/im in a red state" STILL CALL THEM. not just on this issue but ANY issue you care about! Contact your state and municipal level reps as well if you dont trust your congressmen to do the right thing. And ffs dont post doomer shit under people's call to action

Something I want to get better about: Don't repost panic / shitty news without a connected call to action.

KEEP IT GOING!

Everyone sharing and reacting to a PinkNews headline that Trump demands Democrats agree to a ban on trans healthcare to keep the government funded. It's a ban on federal funding for trans healthcare, which is bad but not a total ban, and we've known it was in the pipe for a year or longer.
