R&R is proud to run Sarah M for NPC at this year’s DSA Convention! Sarah will be a strong Marxist, anti-imperialist voice on the NPC. She is running to help DSA lead the fight against Trump and launch a socialist party — read more here! reform-revolution.solidarity.tech/sarah-for-npc 🧵

The people who went with “Sarah McBride will actively collaborate with the destruction of transgender rights” turned out to be right. Incredible that this is our first representation in congress.

Once I finally move out, I am going to become insufferable*. *Will maybe wear a skirt and have feelings about it.

BREAKING On Monday, Popular Information broke the news that the NIH had frozen virtually all grant funding in violation of 2 federal court orders On Wednesday, NIH leadership distributed a memo, acknowledging that its funding freeze was illegal and directing staff to resume issuing grants.

as ever

all this will do is keep more kids missing. this administration is being targetedly evil towards trans people to try and erase us. anyone with common sense or compassion or with the actual goal to find missing and exploited children should rail against this every single day

This inspiring quote was just asking for a background. Quote from The Transfeminine Review, @thetransfemininereview.com ‬

NEWS: The Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition is calling for a *general strike* in Philly on Super Bowl Sunday as part of a week of action to protest Trump’s brutal crackdown. “That means immigrant workers stay home and immigrant customers stay home, too.” whyy.org/articles/phi...

Solidarity with all people suffering from the deeds of the powerful they couldn’t have stopped. Blessings on all who suffer. Blessings on all who relieve suffering. May the world grow gentler in this lifetime.

Just wait until Trump uses the same mechanism he is using to attempt a national trans ban to do the same with a national abortion ban, mifepristone ban, etc.

“should trans people flee, should we stay?” idk chat, i think about the horror stories of my family who decided to stay and fight. they are all dead. every. last. one. many great-great aunts and uncles ended up in the camps and not a one of them were lucky enough to survive. not one.

What really fucks me up about this is that I realized I was trans almost eight years ago to the day, during this exact same spot in Trump’s first term. The idea that this could have happened not now, when I’m 23 and coming into my own, but at 15 while alone and incredibly vulnerable… Nauseating.

make yourself hard to kill.

My new essay comic, Antisemitism in a Time of Genocide, is now up at Le Monde Diplomatique in France. I’ll thread the 8 panels in English here, and link to the French at the end.

NEW: 328 cannabis workers across New Jersey are unionizing with UFCW.

I swear to God, I will live to see 330 million Americans unionized in my lifetime, or I shall die having fought until my last breath to make it a reality. Unionize Everyone - Abolish Bosses.

My new story, going behind the scenes at the NYT is finally live! Huge thanks to @billiejsweeney.bsky.social as well as @kellymcb.bsky.social, @petrinkae.bsky.social, and @shoeleatherkate.bsky.social for chatting with me on this.

In the time I’ve been out the state of trans politics, and thus trans lives, has shifted dramatically from a state of progressive optimism to near universal dismay and panic. It has not stopped us from transitioning, but it has senselessly killed far too many. Keep them in your hearts this TDoR.

no, we can’t just brush them off. republicans are writing discrimination into law and calling us freaks and groomers. if all democrats ever do is “brush off” attacks and can’t offer any substantive rebuttal, whose message dominates: the party talking about us constantly or the party who never does?

Standing room only at our monthly DSA Cincy general meeting! DSA is growing more powerful every day! #socialism #DSA

A great crowd! Very happy that I got to attend.
