Clarence Thomas is not a biology expert Sex is bimodal - it's why intersex people exist Sex is mutable - it's why HRT works Transness is innate - it's why we have existed throughout human history and across cultures He and the court are the ones who lie

Bad news, America.

Sorry is today July 4th? I didn't know because I was too busy being a homosexual Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

100 years ago.

This is a favorite of mine this time of year as well, but in 2026, I find myself thinking of Douglass’s 1894 speech, “Lessons of the Hour” - teachingamericanhistory.org/document/les...

Just here to post this again like I do every year, not only because Douglass was one of the founding philosophers of American liberty but because I am so moved by the kids Frederick Douglass’ descendants deliver “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July”

Not for nothing, but if these people had read more Frantz Fanon and Paulo Freire, they might've seen the data center backlash coming and taken steps to avoid it. …But, then, if these people had read more fanon and freire, a whole bunch of shyt would be real different, these days.

taylor and travis should donate money to all the bars and restaurants in the MSG area who were forced to close down during a super busy tourist/world cup weekend because of their stupid wedding

Trump's SNAP cuts are starving American children. In 12 states with available age data, 776,134 of the 1,670,011 people who were dropped from SNAP were children, which is 46% so basically HALF. This is truly despicable. 🧵

If people read Black abolitionists and Black feminists more carefully and with the rigor that afford to white male theorists, then lots more things be might be clearer to them.

500 of you have already signed up for this, which means 1) now Courtney is doing a second session & 2) $10,000 to voting rights in honor of a man who would *fucking hate that*

“Fixing their car” = intentionally bypassing emission controls Meanwhile, Trump is currently prosecuting someone for touching a pool

With trans rights under attack as never before, we need to show our support for the trans community. Will you join us? goodlawproject.org/s/d23a8a

America keeps trying to get me to go to her birthday party and I’m like no girl u need to go to the hospital

ICYMI Missouri very quietly passed into law the forced detransition of prison inmates as part of a Department of Corrections budget change in HB 2009. forcing someone to detransition is torture at best and murder at worst. guillotines.

If you pay attention to the news, you'll notice that a disproportionaly large number of the anti-ICE and "antifa" protesters who have been charged by the government are transgender. Talking more than 1/10 for a population that's at most 3/100.

It's not appropriate for cis people to say that trans people are too alarmed, or that certain trans writers are irresponsibly causing trans people to think the sky is falling. I want to take some time in this 🧵 to write personally about how my skies have fallen.

Happy Pride!

See you next Pride!

Hell yeah we are

How much more evidence do allies need to understand this is a campaign of genocide?

No different than the Nazis kicking off their fascism by burning down Magnus Hirschfeld's Institute of Sexology and rounding up trans people It's genocidal language and intent

Not loving the word "eliminate" here, tbh

Not now four black eggs surfacing from the dark heart of the ocean

I wrote about the Supreme Court's latest disgusting anti-trans ruling. I wrote about it because I refuse to act like taking away constitutional rights and allowing legal discrimination is okay just because it's happening to people who don't poll well in a diner in Ohio. In @thenation.com

Every morning since Musk became a trillionaire I have logged On Here, seen good people asking for money to pay bills for things that should be free, and felt a rage I cannot describe.

we've been riding our initial wave of miles donations since February and reconnected over 100 families detained or impacted by ICE. our donors are starting to run out of miles. if you have 50,000+ miles and would be willing to book a flight for a person in need, please add your name to our list!

What

saw the worst thing in the world today

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

The use of the word “eliminate” in this context should really freak out more than just those of us he’s seeking to remove, to be honest. This should be a red flag so big that it’s visible from space.

I would suggest that pairing it with the word "insanity"—and in the context of Miller's DoJ memo taking the position to reinstitutionalize people—should immediately make people think about Aktion T4.

A study highlighted by @thefireorg.bsky.social finds that liberal arts students, including in those fields denigrated as "Woke Studies," are more tolerant of opposing ideas that those in more strictly pre-professional majors

Well what do ya know? “Students studying religion and philosophy have the highest average rates of political tolerance. The majors with the lowest average tolerance are preprofessional ones — fashion, marketing, and real estate sit at the very bottom.”

a) there are, like, single digit trans girls in sports in most states (sometimes literally one!), this entire thing is made up so that one girl who wants to play sports with her friends can't do it b) do not, under any circumstances, make policy based on angry sports parents

I feel like roughly 80% of the time I hear about something being done for “women’s safety,” it’s actually a conservative dog whistle for something that will put women in more danger.

The Supreme Court ruled that states may bar trans athletes from girls’ sports. The conservative judges’ written opinions were replete with transphobia — and even the dissenting, liberal position from the court failed to fundamentally uphold the rights of transgender athletes.

Are you a writer looking to troubleshoot a sticky project, learn a new medium, bring joy back to your writing practice, push past a block, or come back from burnout? I'm opening my books to a handful of new coaching clients! (1/)

Frog and Toad were sad for a while.

The fact that the birthright citizenship ruling was 5-4 also makes me want to throw up, by the way, and man that is a chilling excuse for a "win", but I will take it and just manage my nausea, I guess.

Yes, there are only a handful of trans athletes this will affect. Yes, it's also true that this will be used to attack non-gender-conforming cis women in sports. "Certain people do not have rights in certain cases" is a nightmare SCOTUS ruling & no one should need convincing or elaboration.

"It's just sports," "It will only affect a few people," & "It'll also be used against cis women" are, IMHO, all equally not-great takes on today's SCOTUS ruling, just different angles. The Supreme Court ruled it's okay to discriminate against a certain class of people. Full stop. That is a horror.

Shot in the dark perhaps but I’m looking for researchers who are studying the trans mass migration happening right now, in terms of folks moving from red states to blue … Information here but please reach out if you’re willing to interview: www.sandyernestallen.com/announcements Reposts welcomed!

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

my god

So, in Alberta, you have to show a confirmation of female sex in order to register your daughter for youth sports. Nothing required for boys. It has been associated with a decrease in registration for girls participating in sports. No change in boys. edmontonjournal.com/news/local-n...

let's be clear: Trump tried to exclude people with disfavored ancestry from citizenship at birth--a brazen effort to restore an antebellum white supremacist legal order that the 14th Amendment *already repudiated* and 4 Supreme Court justices said LET'S DO IT ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/birth...
