hey everyone at the end of june, i was fired from my job as retaliation for reporting my boss to h.r. for outing me to a new hire. not coincidentally, i was let go the day before iowa's law removing civil rights protections from trans people went into effect.

If there WAS a Christian afterlife (and not to insult any of you, but that's one of the more ridiculous ideas of an afterlife system) My paradise would be designing torture rooms for people who've hurt children and animals.

It’s likely that this happened to them, in which case, again, this should be much bigger news. We can’t just disappear thousands of people without notifying anyone

*googles what to do after you moved to the place you've sworn for years you'd unalive at if you ever got to that point, partly because it being four hours away from where you lived was an intentional choice to make the plan harder to execute & partly because it is genuinely where you want to die*

So, a university president fired a professor because they taught a course that discussed there being more than two genders, and now the university president is being fired for not having fired the professor quickly enough, is where we're at.

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

Whether it’s Republican politicians joking about the murder of Melissa Hortman or Democratic politicians expressing their condolences after the murder of Charlie Kirk, both parties have a extreme rhetoric problem.

I see this as an aspirational statement, I guess - I, too, would love to live in a country that political violence found no home in. But I am a trans woman, and I am subject to political violence every single day, and have been subject to political violence for going on a decade plus now.

you don’t have to have a take on everything but i will say for the record that gavin newsom’s “continue his work” post is one of the more disgusting things i have ever seen considering that the dead man in question wanted at least ~2.8 million americans eradicated & believed empathy was a sin.

A handful of folks breaking out the “But he did important work!” equivocation in the case of Charlie Kirk, like he’s a great civil rights leader or even a long-standing representative or something, rather than a guy who took every chance he had to be hateful, is very strange!

Wild. The political murders of legislators in Minnesota were “killings.” The shooting of Kirk which cause is unknown is an “assassination.” They bend the knee without even being asked.
