As of this morning 4,500 Starbucks workers are on strike. Don’t cross their picket line. No Starbucks. NO Starbucks gift cards!

i really want folks to understand that the point of all this stuff is to prevent trans people from living normal lives. it really is as simple as that.

The reason they're so focused on trans teens is that people who transition younger typically blend into society better. To the extent that they're willing to tolerate our existence in society at all, they'd rather we be easily identified by our appearance/voices/etc.

In other news, notorious porn site *checks notes* D&D Beyond is now requiring age verification. Excuse me while I cast Bigsby's Jerk Off Motion as a ritual.

You know, some days I sit and think about how absolutely wild it is that we've built a society where we don't provide a place for people to even sleep at night without having to pay for it, and that we've somehow made it seem like that's normal.

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

people who have been criminalised in the uk for their action for palestine are in hunger strike week number 5+ and at high risk for their health. The UK government is pretending not to know about them and refusing to talk to them. Please share to increase visibility and pressure.

Disney once sued a daycare center for having painted copyright-protected characters on their walls.

Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups. This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.

A new article already?! Yes, I wrote this because I'm tired of having to type it out to stupid dudes on the internet who won't shut the hell up.

I am no longer making allowances for cis people who are “just confused by the whole ‘trans’ thing.” Either you oppose a hateful, capricious authoritarian regime choosing to target a vulnerable minority group for horrifying violence, or you… don’t. And if you don’t, you’re beneath contempt.

Des was arrested and accused of moving anarchist zines from one place to another and needs our help.

That autistic feeling at the end of a high-masking day when you have to repeatedly shake the residual overstimulation and memories of awkward social interactions out of your head like an Etch-a-Sketch

Introduce yourself with five concerts you’ve seen multiple times. The Cure Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Franz Ferdinand VNV Nation X Japan

Every year around this time, I ask folks to consider doing something in support of Native people. This year, please join me in supporting the Native Organizers Alliance as they build grassroots power, defend Native voting rights, and equip our people for collective struggle through skill-building.

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

BREAKING: Protesters both in and outside the annual Fenway Health Gala decried the LGBTQ community health center's recent decision to end care for trans youth and young adults. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

I was just thinking about how TOYS deserves a cult following but doesn’t seem to have one. It’s got a banger soundtrack, clearly neurodivergent characters, and addresses conflict and violence in ways that seem prescient as fuck now. Legit deserves a Criterion release.

I'm really excited about this episode, Stardusts! It is a continuation of an awesome conversation catalyzed by the incredible @chanda.blacksky.app that began IRL at the STLV TREKtivism panel. We talk about how The #StarTrek future is fundamentally incompatible with capitalism.

A dear friend is a SBux union leader; Corporate uses cruel tricks against employees who try to unionize. She shared with me how they intimidate employees. a store manager told a single mother working 2 jobs if she unionizes he'd cut everyone's hours & make sure the other employees hate her.

star's gonna miss the window to confirm her bottom surgery 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

New awareness campaign

this ruled so hard i got it installed

the mtg/linguistics/trans nerds have translated "death before detransition" into phyrexian.

hey um if this doesn't get 2500 fatter in 3 days, star won't be able to do her bottom surgery

Every year, Halloween comes and goes, and I get bummed I didn’t plan anything ambitious. But someone recently said to me, “it’s the one day of the year you’re allowed to be weird”. Being a normie seems like a much sadder existence than being mildly disappointed one day a year.

Protest tomorrow at Fenway Health at noon over abandoning trans youth. If you're in Boston, come out and support.

“some people abuse SNAP” your soul is rotten

transphobia should be as disqualifying as a nazi tattoo. if you can understand why a nazi tattoo is a reason to not pledge to vote “blue no matter who” early you can understand why I hate you for screaming at trans people all day every day.

Your ability to eat should not depend on your productivity Your ability to get healthcare should not depend on your productivity Your ability to get housing should not depend on your productivity Saying “be more productive!” To those who are struggling devalues human life. It aids fascism.

My two young kids and I use SNAP for groceries, and if you'd like to help us out a lil bit for November (which is also when my birthday is), my Venmo, PayPal and CashApp handles are all @ politicsoftarot 💜

I was asked for a statement for this @nytimes.com story about X gender markers on passports. My statement is: the story of how anti-trans sentiment became so powerful in the United States over the last year is a story for which the New York Times needs to take responsibility.

Hey @edmarkey.bsky.social, my senator. Can you please teach out to Fenway Health and see if you can get them to restore the trans youth care they just ended? Your words are great and we need your action too.

accompanied a friend to a small rural demonstration today & despite all the flag waving it was nice to see folks get together. this was my last-minute contribution 🖤
