Transgender people will always exist, because cis people can't stop making us. ✨🏳️‍⚧️

THREAD: How Ronald Reagan Broke America 1/ You want to pinpoint the exact moment things in this country went to hell? Here it is. 👇 Ronald Reagan. 1981. The year the grift went mainstream. Let’s break down how he sabotaged your future. 🧵

Disabled people can’t “just move” to escape fascism. Moving requires resources, money and health that most of us don’t have. Many countries won’t accept disabled people, especially if they have universal healthcare. People are trapped, so we must fight for them.

Well there's your problem. HD Big Twins shifters have an issue with the shift lever or arm getting loose and the splines wear. Fortunately this is not a difficult repair. I picked up the parts yesterday and repaired it today.

Rest In Power ✊🏼

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

You, too, can send me a dollar for every day in September because it's my birth month and this Virgo findom will always be spending your money better than you

"Who would have predicted this?" - Black women did. - Trans people did. - The *entire* disability community did. - The anarchists did. - Post-Evangelicals did. "Well why didn't I hear them." You did. But you disregarded us as "extremists" and "alarmists". And you are still calling us that.

trans people: these laws are fucked, these are going to cause so many problems for us. it's getting really scary every time: and trans people are only 1% of the population! imagine how much worse this is going to affect cis people! wont someone please think of us when discussing your oppression

From D. L. Mayfield:

how can terfs call themselves "radical" when most of them dont even own a fucking skateboard

Madison Carstens, a transgender woman from Seattle, was attacked by six men in a transphobic hate crime on Sept 2. She suffered a ruptured eardrum - that may have permanently damaged her hearing - and a severe concussion that will keep her out of work for weeks or months. Do your thing, fam. (1/2)

I'm back in the Hampton Roads for the second to last time. There are cleaners scheduled for the place we moved out of.

5/x: The expectation that despised minorities forgive, but that whites are entitled to Shylock's justice, is a double standard that hurts us, desperately. Indeed the entitlement to rule and the Manichaean view of race too common among white people have brought us to this fascist moment.

so my roommate may or may not have fucked us on securing the new place idk yet they haven't gotten back to me and im uhhh kinda scared! so uh! thanks for any help you can give

i got so annoyed when i opened this app that i was simply compelled to post ass to distract myself 🙃😤 actually support an nsfw creator -> allmylinks.com/anarchadykeism

Ok so I’m going to need to move by the end of October and have no prospects or savings or social circles.

I get the line that Sarah McBride needs to walk. I do. I may not be in Congress but believe me when I tell you there's a similar line in a courthouse. But you don't need to take AIPAC money or support genocide or honor a racist in order to walk it.

one of the cruelest things about normalized transmisogyny that it almost feels taboo to talk about is how often children are cut out of our lives. i adore children and they love me because i treat them like real people. but i almost never get to interact with them solely because i’m a trans woman.

It blows my mind. There are more non-white trans people than white trans people in Memphis!

I even ran into this attitude in a hyper-specific manner in my IT work life: management considering anything that was not the exact languages and server software packages to be entirely unrelated. E.g. that having experience with C, Perl, etc., was of no value for Python programming.

1. Telling trans people that even if Democrats won't protect us we should be selfless and vote for them to protect other people is a shitty thing to say. Asking for our rights and calling out Dems when they won't support us doesn't help fascists. Tell Democrats to support and defend us instead.

Seriously, if you're questioning your gender you probably should experiment and see what is right for you. Ignore the hate. Live your life.

Charlie Kirk was vanillafied by the same lab that brought you Mayor Pete and Sarah McBride

IN THE FIGHT AGAINST FASCISM PORNOGRAPHERS HAVE YOUR BACK DO YOU HAVE THEIRS?

this goal is still at $0 btw

Apropos of everything, because it cannot be said loudly or frequently enough, anybody who has a problem with trans people can get fucked.

the road to American fascism was paved with "If they want to protest they should do it somewhere that doesn't inconvenience normal people"

$50 left on my goal bt let’s make it $100 because I’m so beautiful and you’re so generous 🙌🏾 ko-fi.com/maniacbitch

I think the problem with rallying around the most privileged when they've been targeted is that it never trickles down. they're touted as examples for "all of us" but it's not actually true.

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

Yeah, I'm sure the right's going to leave trans people alone now that Sarah McBride voted to honor Kirk

the pro-mcbride case right now appears to be “condemning political violence is crucial for trans people right now” which can generously be read as “If you’re nice enough they won’t come for you” and less charitably “If you don’t go along with this you will be assumed a threat”

I'm considering the pool for when the right begins claiming that McBride voted against it anyway.

it really leaves a bad taste in my mouth seeing a bunch of white trans ppl hash out how we should feel about sarah mcbride’s vote on the charlie kirk bill while ignoring that he wasn’t only a transphobe but also explicitly a *white supremacist*. jfc

"Sarah McBride couldn't vote no because she(and by extension all trans people) would be called violent extremists!" Trans people are being called violent nihilist extremists already because Charlie Kirk was publicly exsanguinated by a fire-arms enthusiast whose roommate may be trans.

I sometimes wonder if I might have enjoyed makeup and dresses if it hadn't been made into a matter of "if you aren't ready to wear that then you aren't trans at all as this is the definition of being a woman and required for you to get letters and prescriptions" by cis gatekeepers.

Every so often I'm reminded of the way so many trans people absolutely leapt to the defense of my first wife when I spoke of the ways she abused me because "she's an ally! You need to be nicer to her."

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

In an unsurprising turn, it would seem the attitude of many white Americans seems to be that kidnapping POC and disappearing them and unjustly persecuting transgender people is fine, but they draw the line at their tv show being cancelled. www.theatlantic.com/culture/arch...

I think it's becoming clear that if you like indie creators, you're going to need to support them any way you can. And that doesn't mean money, just spreading worth of mouth can be powerful as well.
