Kim Reynolds, Steve Holt, and Pat Grassley have done such specific, direct, and unforgivable evil to me and everyone i love in Iowa, and i will work every day of my life to ensure they have no joy, rest, or peace.

i have actual confidence and real joy in life and my heart 🖤

not that it matters, but the ICC considers this to be a war crime.

I strongly suspect we were once again key for a "progressive" campaign to gather political capital but aren't worth spending any of that capital on for... reasons. We are expected to build a bridge to a brighter tomorrow with our broken bodies and corpses because allies don't even see us as people.

white girl stuns by ordering assassination in perfect chud

Insane. The anti-trans movement wants an absolute right of parents to control their children, from the kids' religion to their gender. The state must obey the parents. Except when the parents want to affirm their children as transgender. Then the state can do whatever the fuck it wants.

Today, US & Israeli forces bombed the Gandhi Children’s Hospital in Iran’s capital of Tehran. Nurses supposedly risked their lives carrying newborns to safety from the rubble. I’m having trouble finding more reporting about this, but here is at least a blurb from Reuters:

I’m actually not sure we can come back from “prediction markets for war crimes”, as a society. I think this might be it for us.

Torturing trans women prisoners by executive fiat, and doubling down on said torture as soon as they attempt to fight back. This is what trans genocide in the USA right now looks like.

this is an increasingly bad look for mamdani open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

Transphobic laws and their famous Clarity strike yet again

will Jane Schoenbrun go 3/3 on making me dissociate for several days after watching their movie?

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

i was once too broke to move from one apartment in a building down the hall to another post-breakup. moving isn’t cheap or particularly fun &, by and large, trans people aren’t doing great economically. 401,000 trans people fleeing their governments should be considered a fucking national emergency.

how do like 15 women i know *all* have a story about this too?! what is happening?! (we know what is happening, but still...)

i think bad things need to happen to a lot of people, actually

you can take hormones for a while without it doing anything significant and you’ll find out pretty soon if they’re right for you or not. just fucking take them you pussy

"tapering plans" for HRT is a death sentence if you've had gender-affirming surgeries, like I have with my orchi, because your body will just wither away and die without hormones. Unspeakable evil. Demonic shit. You don't hate these motherfuckers enough.

the only place this should happen is academic conferences

I don't think anyone on here actively wants Gavin Newsom to be president. In fact I think they're just saying the name of the last guy they saw on TV who seemed half smart and could string a functional sentence together

This bill includes criminal penalties and a bounty provision. It also authorizes the state DMV to strip trans people off their current drivers licenses.

the world order effectively letting the palestinian genocide occur with no real objections has effectively dropped the formalities around pretending to care about genocide in the post-ww2 era and so the 21st century will be marked by more genocides & attempts to depoliticize them

A Virginia court agreed to allow a Marine and his wife to adopt an Afghan girl living in Afghanistan. Then the couple tricked the girl's family into evacuating to the U.S., and when they arrived here, stole the child. The Virginia Supreme Court just endorsed the legality of this.

i think trans surgeries for youth are worth fighting for actually. i dont like that cis ppl have determined the overton window on this issue for us

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

The US cutting off oil to Cuba is truly one of the most depraved acts it is possible to imagine. Hospitals will close, food production will collapse, people will starve. It is urgent for US citizens, and every sane person, to oppose this barbarism with all their might.

really horrified by the continued and escalating strangulation of Cuba by a global superpower that has absolutely no reason to do so other than pure spite

please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota. people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.

still thinking about the leaked Paper Kingdom song 'Bike Thief' and it's implications. least most transgender band ever. damn.

it is surreal that, for the second time in my recent life, Kim Reynolds and her legislative ghouls are trying to make a bill about me and my hot friends and the hot girl stuff we do in Iowa City. www.legis.iowa.gov/legislation/...

The president of the ASPS is a huge Trump supporter if you're wondering why they shifted positions now to align with the Trump Administration. He's donated substantially to Trump and Ted Cruz. This was a political decision. www.fec.gov/data/receipt...

O cool The hypothesis that the elite were trying to segrigate trans people from society purely to keep us as sex slaves was real, but only for trans women since they see trans men as undesirable for sex and want them eliminated which is EXACTLY THE POLICIES AND RHETORIC WE'RE SEEING HAPPEN RIGHT NOW

I’m not allowed to safely use a public bathroom because a literal island of pedophiles said trans people might be sketchy. … and somehow that’s barely a sliver of the things that happened thanks to a literal island of pedophiles making stuff up.

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks. They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

dont let a few ICE agents leaving mn fool you. nothing on the ground has changed yet. this is a way for them to distract and give a scapegoat so the rest of the world will turn a blind eye.

once had a guy in my seminar sit through my lecture on UPIC and then come up to me after and ask if i ever wore collars...

what's it called when you're a fujoshi but for your friends finding love and joy and happiness?

This isn't capitulation they just believe this shit. Beneath the grand pronouncements liberalism and social democracy both are based on the violence of the state; the maintenance of border and race and class and gender by men with guns Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Tomorrow morning's subcommittee on HF2121 (Don't Say Gay k-12) was CANCELLED about 7:15 this evening. I assume that it will be rescheduled. It may have only been cancelled because those who support the bill will all be in Clive tomorrow for Pres. Trump's speech.

well there's MPD arresting protesters again with a fuckin' tank so I guess the mayor really just talks big eh

i hate living in the second act of CABARET. i miss living in the first act of CABARET

why are these never directed at white trans men

need to stop comparing myself to people who have been on HRT for more than twice as long as i have. i'm actually doing fine.

This is the sort of thing that defines fascism more than most other aspects. The installation of secret police to monitor everyone for suspicion not of doing anything wrong, but of being the wrong kind of person.

homophobia won smh

Caleb Williams have you seen episode 5 of Heated Rivalry?

Being terrible on trans issues is always a tell. It never fails.
