the fact there's less than 10 trans women affected by the trans athlete ban directly isnt some gotcha the fact the ruling specifically says we are not entitled to title 9 protections in sports is going to be a precedence for just stripping it outright this is just the start

@autumnrain80 @vivienigma I just knew I needed more queerness in my life, but had no idea how to go about that. I raged about sexism, at home, in public. It was everywhere! I didn't realize these were the things that ultimately led to my "egg cracking." Once I was free of the marriage, it was obvious.

@autumnrain80 @vivienigma For me, I had never thought to question my gender - as AFAB, I questioned everything about why women had to be x, y, z. Still, even at age 4, I wanted kids, so I didn't question myself. At age 50, I met enby peeps & got it. My egg sounded like: Am I too gay to be married?

🏳️‍⚧️❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️ Did you all know that the entire ideological premise on which Gender-Critical "feminists" operate is based on Biological Determinism? Their entire ideological line of thinking starts with making a sweeping conclusion where they reject the legitimacy and humanity of trans women outright. They outright reject gender as a concept from the start. Then, and only then, do they hijack feminism and selectively interpret feminist scholarship in a way that actually supports their premise. The hateful and vitriolic rhetoric they use is just for fun. Alternatively, Most modern feminist theorists believe that sex and Gender are two entirely different concepts. For example, my entire feminist ideological and analytical framework is based on the premise of Gender Existentialism. It is heavily inspired by the feminist scholarship of Simone de Beauvoir, which is held in extremely high regard in Feminist Theory. I arrived at the specific line of thinking, having not made a sweeping generalized conclusion, and worked backwards. I tried to understand the systems of oppression in society, interpreted through the lens of Intersectionality, to arrive at my conclusions. Notice how my feminist line of thinking and my conclusions are based on the evidence and scholarship that I had available to me? Versus starting from a premise and working backwards. Gender-Critical Feminism, or more appropriately, Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminism, is not a legitimate form of feminism. Their theories, their ideological positions, are antithetical to the goals of feminism. It is not a continuation of the feminist intellectual project. I reject it.

My mom was a writer, & my world growing up was narrated in this fashion. There was the possibility of deeper meaning everywhere. She shied away from reality & specialized in fantasy, but I hope one day to honor her wisdom in the way I meet the world. Like @japan_nobunaga does.

USA. Anime convention, Saturday morning. A father is walking with his son. The boy is maybe nine, wearing a paper Goku wig and a foam sword too big for him. He stops in front of me. His mouth opens. He has forgotten how to speak. I am in full armor. I came here for a meeting

There might be sensible arguments to defend Elon Musk's wrecking of USAID, but claiming that the sudden discontinuation of long-running programmes for malaria, tuberculosis, ebola and providing nutrition assistance won't lead to a large number of deaths is unserious, at best.

what she did that made it so perfect? She said she gave me the "nonbinary neck," which is squared off but also rounded. Obvs. she is magic. In six years, she's the first person who understood me. 🥰

I finally got a haircut I like! I randomly checked into a quick clips place I've never used, and a transwoman met me at the register! She understood what I meant by "long, but not long; short, but not short." When she was done, she showed me the back. As I marvelled, i asked ..

@TristanGinger I hope you're right. I met one in my apartment complex, and I never would have known except I'm nonbinary, and (of course) gender came up. I thought we were vibing on feminism until she attacked trans women & said they were invading women-only spaces. FML.

@autumnrain80 Oooh, I'm a lot more anti-capitalist than anything. It's the root of so much suffering. If our election system holds, we can by clamp down on excessive profits, outrageous pay packages, and golden parachutes. I doubt we'll see a revolution tho.

If I'm breathing in & out, I am a bigot's worst nightmare. If I'm breathing in & out, I have been taking care of me. If I'm breathing in & out, I will extend help, a hug, a ride to a stranger. While I breathe in & out, no one notices, & nothing is happening. Still, I rise.

Breathing. Some days I am chased. Some days I am the one clinging. On both days, I keep breathing. There are nights I cannot laugh, and mornings I cannot speak. I wear a face nobody sees and call it surviving. The list of what I failed at today loops in my head until sunrise.

@stacycay @MsTiaHopkins That is so awesome!! I run for local precinct committee person for our local party, & it never occurred to me that my neighbors were voting for a nonbinary person! We are doing it!! Thank you, Stacy!! (I always win. We only need 4 votes out of thousands of people in a precinct.)

@japan_nobunaga Progressives lost the long game back in the 80s with the GOP southern strategy. Big business won then, too, & keeps winning. The GOP's push for "capitalism over democracy" is winning for now, but Dems are suckers, too. We need money out of politics. #EndCitizensUnited

I was once a trans child. I wasn’t planning on having a future. Now that I’ve transitioned my life is the best it’s ever been. I want every trans child to know that there is a future for them. Happiness is possible. And we’ll never stop fighting for your happiness🏳️‍⚧️✊

@japan_nobunaga A. Never. I have been to all the countries I thought I'd like better, and concluded I have to stay in the US and fix this mess. There's nothing like a familiar mess. Oregon.
