I had well over ten years of highly-curated playlists on Spotify, and I thought it would be sooo hard to move. IT WAS EASY. And I got to leave a bitchy note to them on the way out.

Cis women in anti-trans religious communities are literally fucking medically transitioning, and the NYT buries this fact 1000s of words into the article.

Just got a call from a lovely but very nervous Dr, who advised I wouldn't be routinely screened for breast cancer because I'm not indicated as being "biologically female" on the central NHS database and my biology wouldn't indicate I'm at risk. My records have been altered, which is upsetting.

It's impossible to separate Hegseth's vision of "warrior culture" from his storied history of violence against women in his life, fundamentalist faith in the patriarchy, and his own pathetic insecurities. I have zero faith he won't entangle us in wars to validate his own flailing gender identity

Pete Hegseth has used his many perches—from Princeton to the Pentagon—to agitate for a kind of trickle-down masculinity.

You know how software devs use “boilerplate” for reusable starter code? I propose we use “sloper” from now on, partly because it’s more accurate to the metaphor and partly because it dispells the faux-masc vibe of the former.

they’re kidnapping trans women and forcing them to choose between male detention centers, where theyll be tortured, sexually abused and forcibly detransitioned, and leaving her whole life behind via self-deportation. but please go on with your “reasonable concerns” about trans rights

9. I hope McBride finds principle. I hope that one day, instead of offering cover for those pleading for permission to let us drown, she stands firm and claims the legacy her position demands. We need someone who doesn’t flinch when the battle for rights turns against us—but rises to meet it.
