The full House of Representatives will vote this week on the most extreme anti-trans bill ever brought to a vote. It’ll be reported that the bill only bans care for trans minors. But it would *criminalize* the care — doctors would face up to a decade in prison.

also im not the first person to say this but I think it’s weird and racist how many ppl are theorizing that Manousos is going to desire violence w zero characterization that supports that assumption

Stealing a screenshot from this thread without the spoiler because it really does sun up my feelings. Carol isn't perfect. This show would *suck* if Carol hit all the notes correctly to tug all a mass audiences' heart strings. The viewer needs to meet the show halfway

there are so many garbage pluribus takes soaked in therapy language. like truly people are so lost in the sauce i hope i never meet any of them

im listening to Cameron Winter Heavy Metal again and god. how did he pull out all the most sick vulnerable feelings and string them on a piano like that music.apple.com/us/album/dri...

shoutout to walgreens for keeping both my HRT and SSRIs from me at the same time. i feel really good rn

ME: I've never dated a cenobite before. I'm not sure, who pays? CENOBITE: Your panic is exquisite. ME: I wouldn't mind going dutch…? CENOBITE: I can taste your pain on the air. A shiver of electricity. I am going to hold your head down on the floor and open your skull from behind. ME: I'll just pay.

I have 300 pages of library books left and the hold just came through on a 450 page medieval horror epic

it’s really cool that i can’t share group access for an excel sheet with my very large project group without emailing hundreds of people. what great functionality

(company wide email) ok this was maybe a dream but if you get a slice of ham in the mail, just toss it out. i had to do it or they weren't going to let me start in the super bowl even though it's in my parents backyard, which i think is ridiculous, but i had to do it because my tv was deflating fast

back on lexapro

Importantly, this wouldn't have passed without Dem support. There was enough of a split within Republican ranks that if Dems had voted against the bill it would've been doa. Giving Trump a blank check to warmonger *and* passing an anti-trans measure was a choice.

tapping the sign that says “fascists objectifying trans people isn’t a funny hypocrisy, sexual violence and fetishization are used as a tool of subjugation by fascists against marginalized groups”

every cis person who responds to the bill trying to defund trans healthcare with a joke abt politician viagra: shut the fuck up shut the fuck up shut the fuck up shut the fuck up oh my god

I am extremely happy I transitioned. It makes me feel like a real person, and I can love and live more freely now. The only drawbacks to transition are sanction from society, and it is a concerted effort. Transitioning saved my life; if I die it is because the establishment chose to kill me.

this is so real. I get that it's mad fucked that they made us do the wrong puberty the first time, but we can't allow ourselves to be trapped by the past. I also get that it's mad fucked that a lot of people are gonna see us as a type of quirked up woman, but we can't agree with them.

“just go up to people” isn’t useful advice when what youre worried abt isn’t just getting rejected but also having it thrown in your face that you look like a woman and you cant really “good vibes” and self-confidence yourself out of that one

I love the club and this is no one’s fault but I only get hit on by lesbians and it would be cool if that could change. like not to rain on anyone’s parade but it would really butter my muffin if people saw me as a man. that would be really nice

i swear to god my voice dropped a little more over thanksgiving. i have to reevaluate my karaoke repertoire.

discogs and bandcamp are blocked on my work laptop for “”security reasons”” im being persecuted

You know, there are a lot of good ways you can push back against anti-transmasculinity. Transmisogny is not - and will never be - one of them. If that’s your weapon of choice: you are my enemy. 🔨

I need everyone to look up what "v-coding" is to understand how absolutely horrifically trans women in particular are treated in prison even w/ the existing protections. W/o even marginal protection it's only going to get worse from here on out. This is a targeted transmisogynistic hate campaign.

The DOJ released a memo--the day after World AIDS Day--ordering prisons to enable the rape of incarcerated trans women. The State Department also banned recognition of World AIDS day. Prison rape, on top of the lifelong trauma, often leads to HIV transmissions. It's not hard to do the math.

Spend five minutes talking to someone who has survived what these policies were designed to stop and you’ll never be the same again. PREA is imperfect and often weaponized, but it’s often the only protection trans/intersex prisoners have. Everyone involved in this should never know a moment’s peace.

who needs the epstein files when trump's doj is explicitly trying to get more trans kids raped

Trans women continue to be maligned as predators and invaders even as regimes basically make it legal to rape us.

do I need a man or do I need a space heater? the answer is both

overwhelming biological imperative to SNUGGLE

Look I've been suicidal & not only that I've come to terms with the fact I'll always struggle with suicidal ideation. Those feelings crest & peak & people commit the act opportunistically at a low, when if they'd stuck around they'd see they felt better just a bit later. So yes ChatGPT is killing.

"trans men encouraged to detransition by transphobic institutions" is not news, nor is it some kind of "gotcha," nor does it expose anyone's hypocrisy. transphobic institutions are actually quite consistent about wanting trans people to detransition. that's where the transphobia comes in.

everything fucking sucks but i have boredoms super roots 9 on CD coming in the mail so like it’s fine
