What is this feeling? Is this…..hope?

SCOTUS has granted a stay in Trump v. Orr, the trans passport case, meaning that the government will be able to once again deny gender marker changes to trans passport applicants. This is a terrible decision with horrifying consequences for trans folks. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

BLOCK THEM That’s all you need to do

#NoKings #NoKingsDay

Performative action is what got the Feds to finally admit AIDS was real, and the stories of that era moved the Overton window enough for Obergfell. (Hopefully we move the window faster this time) Performance is media-philic, and humans need to see things several times to fix it in their brains.

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

EVIL! EVIL! EVIL! We must demand protections for all Americans in all States against this ICE fascism. They are as evil as the Gestapo. Do not obey in advance. Make calls now! For ICE must be abolished! #AbolishIce 🤜🏿🧊🤛🏻 #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️🫂🌎 #Resist ✊️✊🏿✊🏽

I'm sharing this because it's important. Please make calls to every single Government authority to protect all Gender Affirming Care in the US. Here's how you can do it: (For Trans Rights are Human Rights) #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 #DoNotObeyInAdvance Sincerely, a UK citizen.

Contact your Government reps to fight this Genocidal rhetoric. This fascist ghoul mustn't be obeyed at all. Make calls to demand protections for all Trans Care NOW! We must be loud like we were for Jimmy Kimmel TIMES A THOUSAND! #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 #GenderAffirmingCareIsHealthCare 🏳️‍⚧️🫂

Sharing this because our freedoms are at stake. I love WDAS and Pixar but freedoms of expression matter WAY MORE! We mustn't give up. Call your reps, demand them sue and fire Brendan Carr for First Rights Ammendment Violations. (Even if they're MAGA, you must, your Rights Matter) #Resist

These Far Right ghouls are evil. Make calls NOW to demand Trans People get protected because this violence is EVIL! This Transphobia is getting out of control and must STOP NOW! All Transphobes are the ones who are evil. I hate them with a PASSION! #TransRights

This does explain why the right is viciously attacking and canceling people that post actual Charlie Kirk quotations. They know that the vast majority of people will be disgusted and horrified, and doubly so after seeing major media lionizing him.

So you didn’t see his good side, and she didn’t see his bad side. But one of these is far more dangerous than the other.

This post that a friend of my partner's shared on FB potentially explains the Kristin Chenoweth thing, and is frightening.

Political violence begets political violence. It must stop. I don’t recall Netanyahu and Vance sending prayers when Hartman and her husband were assassinated. Prayers are saved for provocateurs I guess.

if people around you are confused why chat control is a bad thing, ask them with a blank expression to hand you their phone or to print all their chatlogs for you so you can read all their messages "just to be safe" they should be fine with it since they "don't do anything wrong" after all

oh yeah before I forget, the kicker is that they want politicians (and persons they deem necessary or whatever) to be entirely exempt from this bullshit law, so y'know, rules for thee but not for me and all that fun stuff

I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste

them in cult of lamb-ish style #TeamShamura

Also, censorship campaigns are especially dangerous because they can actively interfere with attempts to organize against them, and whatever happens to follow. If platforms are allowed to decide what you can and can't say, regardless of law, what's to prevent them gagging anyone who raises alarm?

If you talk to queer and trans kids about the internet they will tell you that it’s full of issues and causes issues for people in general, not just young people—and that they probably wouldn’t be here today without it. It’s a lifeline. It’s the only LGBTQ resource and community many of them have.

support.stripe.com?referrerLoca... ahah whoops i dropped my link to Stripe's help and support website that you can use to contact a customer service rep hahaha silly me

Keep calling. Fuck the censorship and we will not stop until they feel the pressure and actually stop the censorship altogether. It’s not just NSFW art and content that’s being targeted. They’ll go after everything.

I'm not far from 50, and I also support this terminology. Look, and if the folks are trying overly hard to promote their AI image shit, we can call 'em Shill/Hack Artists, or Shartists, and they're promoting their Sharts.

So their "art" is just called "fart" then, right? Because I am also on board for this.

Well, I’m not far from 40 and I also support this terminology.

it's the vague use of wording that can punish anyone if it becomes squeezable to punish something if someone reports it as explicit. Like, it absolutely can make art that someone commissioned that's just a simple hypnosis piece get banned versus dogwhistles not get caught because "they're fine."

They're asking for feedback, as it goes up in two months. if you feel something is too vague or worded badly, There is a feedback form they have for this exact reason. No need to be completely doomer about the platform just yet. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

addendum: I do suggest that some clarification is added to this rule, that being "for reference, a quadrupedal animal with no ability to speak". thank you one commenter for reminding me of fansly. that helps a lot on the adverse reaction to this vague rules = abuse in the system, I see this now

these kind of terms and conditions are left wishy washy on purpose, as to do exactly that sort of thing when it's deemed convenient. (Like visa saying "illegal content")

corporations being able to control what kind of art we're allowed to see on the internet is bad

Put more pressure on PayPal and every other company who's doing this shit. Call them. Don't stop. You have the right to be angry at this. NEVER LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THIS.

commis for @theprinceice.bsky.social THE SONG WE COULDNT WRITE, THIS IS WHAT IT SOUNDS LIIIIIKE

🚨🧵🚨 Flood with calls to demand this get repealed NOW. It's not about protecting Kids, it's about control. There's millions of adults that enjoy cartoons, Nintendo games and many others. This is authoritarian, we MUST take action NOW! #SayNoToFascism #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️ #SayNoToAI

🚨🧵🚨 Awful! Please call your MPs, demand them to repeal the Online Safety Act. What Starmer said is an absolute lie. It's not about protecting Kids. It's about censoring LGBTQIA+ content to eradicate Trans People from Public life, like 1933 Germany. Take action ASAP: #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️ 1/15

Please share. We need to contact our MPs to oppose ASAP, censorship is NOT OK. Kids SHOULD be protected, though this censorship will be used to awfully hurt LGBTQ+ individuals more. (Even if they're Reform, you still must because Trans Rights are Human Rights) #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️ #SayNoToFascism ✊🏻✊🏽✊🏿

Someone put together an awesome Google Doc with as much info piled together as possible docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Side note, do not LITERALLY harass the customer support. Use the script and at least pretend to be not angry, show some annoyance maybe but the peeps manning the lines are just there for a 9-to-5

actually harassing their phone lines is a very effective way of doing this. Clogs up their system and is INCREDIBLY expensive to deal with. Nothing more effective than loud and annoying people yelling in your house, as is proven.
