We've raised $777 for the Trevor Project so far! It's the last week of Pride Month and we're going to keep the charity thing going for the rest of the month! I don't usually post stream links on my bsky but I'm doing it in case it helps with the charity thingy meow meow www.twitch.tv/plaaane

And the New York Times - which has obsessively covered minute aspects of the gender affirming care fight - chose not to cover this, or a major study finding anti trans laws increase calls to suicide hotlines, or many other stories that don't fit their agenda.

We're thrilled to share ChipNomad! ChipNomad is a powerful new chiptune tracker by @megus.org for retro handhelds (Anbernic, TrimUI) and desktop! Inspired by LSDJ & M8, it brings authentic chip music creation straight to your pocket. Grab it here: 👉 chipnomad.org #chipnomad #chiptune #tracker

It's Juneteenth! Black artists, share your artwork or mutual aid below. Everyone else, share or repost! Let's help people today!

✨JUNETEENTH MUTUAL AID THREAD ✨ Here’s a thread with Black folks you can support in celebration of #Juneteenth. Do some good - even if you’re sending $3 to a Black person to treat themselves to a dessert or a coffee! Circulate & give to at least one person in the thread if you have the means 💜

When marginalized people are rapidly losing rights, media is being taken over by authoritarian governments, and there are multiple factors forcing people (including children) into isolation, attacking our ability to use the internet and speak freely on it is a clear attempt to stifle resistance

Truly unconscionable HBO is going forward with that show. What a horrendous timeline we’re living in. If you have friends or family who still enjoy Harry Potter, it’s time to have a serious talk with them.

A lot of the “kids online safety” proponents actually are anti-LGBTQ extremists and fundamentalists who want kids to have less freedom and don’t care if that actually makes them tremendously less safe too

In this piece, a former USAID global health official explains the catastrophic human toll of DOGE's cuts to the agency.

My gosh, the things cis people think are perfectly fine to say to me

I've been a broken record on this for three years and I'll be a broken record for as long as that fucking website exists: X is a viciously racist far-right organising platform that ONLY WORKS because a huge number of centrists, lefties and progressivs cannot stop propping it up

I'm raising money for Trevor Project all month on my Twitch stream, and I made a little video to announce it www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU2k... You can find me on Twitch here: www.twitch.tv/plaaane

Celebrate pride by sending money to trans people in need. We’re one of the poorest demographics facing some of the highest employment discrimination and public life is increasingly being placed out of reach for many of us.

Queer Games bundles are one of the best ways to directly support LGBTQIA+ gamedevs throughout Pride month I'm not in this one, but there are some incredible titles, made by amazing folks who are creating real art & experiences with very little media support Link-thru also goes to a $10/PWYC bundle

Alright … I did this last year and I’ll do it again … This is for a WHT … Share links to things you want people to support with their dollars, this Pride … I’m thinking trans or queer creators / small businesses / causes … Subscribe if you don’t already: whats-helping-today.beehiiv.com

Here's how the Trump administration is chipping away at transgender health care access for adults With more than 30 interviews with trans adults, treatment providers, conservative activists and trans rights activists over the last two months. For @nbcnews.com: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

"This mass denial of care (and, in many cases, forceable detransition) was accompanied, predictably, by an explosion in the suicide rate amoung trans young people." Transphobia is deadly. I just hope cis people still possess hearts and souls sufficient enough to wake up at last and stop this evil.

Some of them have occasionally been honest about the strategy. Helen Joyce, 5/25/22: "We can't win this by saying you know there's 60 x million people in this country and we've got to persuade all of them or a great majority of them. We've got to get through to the decision makers."

Many trans Kansans whose licenses were cancelled by a recent state law now face a kind of poll tax: To vote, they’ll have to pay $16 for a replacement license with a gender marker that doesn’t match their identity.

I moved my HRT day to Friday so it wouldn't be on the same day of the week my mom passed away, so I wouldn't end up counting the weeks that way I've been on HRT most of my life, but I still look forward to it each week, I want to keep that as a positive thing I can feel good about

if you are a trans reader of mine and you struggle to explain to cis family and friends why you hurt so much lately I wrote this so you can send it to them. I feel like we know this pain intimately but I want everyone to understand it, because we are going to need help if it’s ever going to stop.

This is for a potential piece: Trans people, did you have friend(s) or your entire friend group abandon you when you came out and/or transitioned? I’m curious to hear others’ experiences … (Reposts appreciated)

This is heartbreaking, both in the beauty of her voice and the life stolen from her.

It’s been two weeks since my mom passed away I wish the world would take some time off from being unbelievably cruel but it doesn’t work that way

NEW: Seattle might declare a civil emergency to help LGBTQ (mostly trans) people fleeing red states, so I looked for a Texas angle. An organizer told me that Texas is #1 among trans people looking to relocate: "The baseline hostility to their existence is unbearable." www.chron.com/culture/arti...

fucking hell

"You can't be having all these trans women being murdered by men in the headlines when you're trying to convince the public that the safest thing would be for trans women to use the men's bathroom and locker room. "You run the risk of people seeing through the propaganda that way."

That's probably because they know they're partially responsible for her death and violent hate crimes against trans women go against their anti-trans narratives they are using to try to win Pulitzers

New — I spoke to parents whose kids are former patients of NYU Langone's trans youth health care program about the Texas criminal subpoena for their private health records. "I was furious. I was in disbelief. I was scared for my child's well-being." Read my full report:

Alright. A few weeks ago a guy on here complained at me he has had 'no choice' but subscribing to the NYT because he wants to stay informed. I wrote ... a long post responding to this sort of nonsense, full of links to outlets for folks to check out: whats-helping-today.beehiiv.com/p/news-is-br...

The ACTUAL story that's being mostly missed is this horrific era is the orchestrated attack upon the healthcare of trans people, especially kids, especially in red states, etc. The public's oblivious because the mainstream press has failed to communicate what's really going on. The apathy is LOUD.

The Pulitzer Prize Committee placed in their finalists an overtly eugenicist broadcast aimed at wiping out transgendered kids, if you want to know how well anti-trans propaganda is working.

"In the weeks after the policy was announced, hospitals across the country began abruptly scaling back or halting care for transgender youth, with dozens of health systems pausing treatments such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy amid fears of losing federal funding or facing investigation."

Trans people, I have a question, if anyone wants to answer. What's keeping your hope alive, lately? Share anything positive, I'd like to hear.

I wonder how many people are even aware these are slurs? Transphobes started using "Tim" to refer to trans women by a masculine name and likewise "Tif" for trans men, it's coded misgendering, as they'd regularly refer to us as Timothy or Tiffany to insult us. UK journalists using anti-trans slurs.

not conspiracy or exaggeration to say that the NYT has been actively complicit with the destruction of trans rights and lives and utterly unapologetic about this behavior ... and it's definitely not stopping at just us. my question is always: when will cis folks say enough is enough.

We live in a world where Pink News has been so awful when it comes to trans people that they are now on the Very British Bigotry blocklist.

meowww

wow, this is like a Legion of Doom of anti-trans researchers – spread the word!

I did post my run video for my hitless true crown 7-99 www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVpi... I was a little nervous about posting it publicly so it took me a little time. It's a stream vod so I talk a lot about various stuff, if I'm a little clumsy about it please go easy on me lol Very long video ...
