It is important to see this sort of straight talking, precisely because of the executive order last week that conflated criticism of the government with terrorism.

Give folks their flowers No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier "They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

I just called Chuck Schumer’s office and, for the first time EVER, a person answered, who then politely entered my complaints into their call log. This tells me two things: 1) They’re not getting enough calls over there, and 2) If you want to yell at Schumer, today’s the day. (212) 486-4430

cis people, you have to show up. right now. we do not have the numbers, but you do. we are talking about suicide. that's what this headline is. taking away HRT will increase trans suicides. i and so many others are dead without it. don't let us die without trying to keep us alive. call, please.

Former IDW Sonic comics editor, by the way. Help them out if you can!

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

A huge win for trans people in California: the state legislature passed five bills protecting our rights! Now it's time to call on Governor Gavin Newsom to sign them. Contact him before October 12th: transfamilysos.org/action-neede... #TransRights #TransYouth #TransCalifornia

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

Bad news: I got laid off from a project and rent is still late, I'm afraid I'll receive an eviction notice soon. I managed to pay part of it last month but we're still struggling.

Steel clashed with scales as the beast roared, shattering windows. Towers crumbled, fire devoured streets. The knight leapt from a rooftop, blade drawn, plunging toward the dragon’s gaping maw, the city’s fate balanced on a single strike. #dnd #ttrpg #gaming #mtg

Beast Fables - Lindwyrm Facial Variations Pt. 2 While Lindwyrms are famous for the might and awe they inspire, domestic crocodilian lindwyrms are colorflul and flashy. The most dangerous ones however, might just be those that lurk in the darkest caves... #worldbuilding #fantasyart #creaturedesign

While he doesn't care for the Earth and its inhabitants, Gormaru isn't keen on sharing a planet with invasive creatures, much less with other U.T.A Monsters. So to stay alive, remember, be you defenders or destroyers: Do not pose a threat to his slice of territory. #kaiju #oc #ocsky #monsters 🔥

Kitten update! They were moved to a new, bigger enclosure today and did really well! Not a hiss or a wail at all! They're not as friendly now, because they're still adjusting, but I can fit inside the enclosure now, so they're learning I have legs or whatever

Everyone's personalities are becoming more obvious. The brown one is the lover, though not today, because of the big move. The grey one with the white nose is the most sus. Mama still just stares at me like she wants my soul to keep, but we're getting there.

On this day in 1998, 27 years ago, Pokémon Red & Blue were first released in the US. These games were adaptations of Pokémon Red & Green based on the Pokémon Blue engine and brought the franchise to the west! www.serebii.net/rb

Still growing, still getting less sus of humans, still need homes!

Something to celebrate the new trailer, I'm so glad the Toruk has returned! #avatar #avatarfireandash #torukmakto #scifiart

Alright I didn’t check bluesky till this evening. Re: Frankie, I feel like my answer to a question was wildly misinterpreted. I think seeing her as trans is awesome, I see the connection when ppl talk about it, and I have also never in my career been against hcs, why would I start now?

I’m sorry if my reply came across as too short or casual an answer. It may not have been my intention but it’s an absolutely valid and awesome interpretation to see Frankie as trans. I love seeing what people take away from stories and that will always be the case. It’s the beauty of fiction!

HERE IS HOW TO CONTACT YOUR REPS ABOUT ANTI-TRANS BILLS (both email and phone): bsky.app/profile/auts...

If any of you have energy to call your dems. Tell them how this shit will hurt you and how you'll spite vote them out in the primary if they do this. If you're a cis ally call on our behalf. Please.

10. Lastly, EITM is an award-winning media outlet covering LGBTQ+ issues every day. You can subscribe to support our journalism at www.erininthemorning.com/subscribe.

9. If these anti-LGBTQ+ provisions make it through, they would lock some of the harshest restrictions on trans people into federal law and hand Trump a stronger platform to target trans rights nationwide. Only if Dems stand firm for their trans and queer constituents will this outcome be stopped.

8. Last year, Dems passed an anti-trans provision in the NDAA with full control of the Senate, refusing Tammy Baldwin's vote to strip the anti-trans provisions. www.erininthemorning.com/p/37-democra...

7. The NDAA is one of the biggest fights this month - it includes a total ban on tricare coverage for gender affirming care at any age, and saw several Democrats cross party lines to pass it. www.erininthemorning.com/p/anti-trans...

6. The Financial Services and General Government bill follows suit, barring coverage of transgender healthcare for federal employees and their families while undercutting D.C.’s protections for transgender care coverage. bsky.app/profile/equa...

5. The Commerce, Justice, and Science bill carries its own slate of riders: a ban on funding transgender surgeries in any federally owned, leased, or used facility, and a prison placement ban that would force transgender women into men’s jails. docs.house.gov/meetings/AP/...

3. Though Trump frames the fight around “transgender surgeries” and sports, the provisions buried in the appropriations bills go far beyond that—and could devastate transgender people nationwide.

2. On Tuesday morning, Trump took to Truth Social with a rambling post announcing he would refuse to negotiate unless Democrats “agree to the principles in this letter.” Those “principles” included a slate of anti-trans measures—from bans on transgender healthcare to nationwide sports restrictions.

1. Trump has dug in on anti-trans provisions in the shutdown fight this morning, cancelling a meeting with Dems unless they cave on trans people. His post to Truth Social is a clear indication that Republicans are making targeting trans people a priority. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I haven’t seen a lot of cis people I usually see pushing for calls, etc. doing so about these rules provisions, which would devastate trans people nationally. Calls need to be made to all electeds and a firm stance taken ASAP, with ten times the fervor of the Kimmel/D+ event

“Trans people and autism never existed when I was younger” no you just absolutely refused to acknowledge the existence or feel empathy towards anyone or anything outside the safety of the status quo

Silent Hill f is downloading and Hades 2 isn’t unlocked yet, so now I get Susie wishing me well wishes.
