I am so tired of being a political punching bag. Trans rights are human rights. Full stop. If you disagree, you’re the problem. If you’re afraid of us…. You can leave. But we’re not going away. We’re not leaving.

I can’t begin to describe what it’s like to try and get thru my day, professionally and personally, while also having to pay attention to constant anti-trans rhetoric in the news because the Trump administration is actively trying to criminalize my existence. Just…add that stress on to everything.

which is exactly why more than anything we have to push back against any attempts at gun control. this is not the time to worry about fascists having guns because they already do and guess who will be taking yours?

Conservatives: The Holocaust could only happen because the Nazis barred Jews from owning guns to defend themselves. Also conservatives: We should ban the minority we're nakedly genocidal towards from owning guns to defend themselves.

Banning trans people from owning guns is a really REALLY significant escalation and I think the scariest part about it that's not being discussed at all is that the plan is to declare that trans people are mentally ill Moreover, ICE must be destroyed edition.cnn.com/2025/09/04/p...

I think it's important to note that Venezuela is saying this didn't happen. They've recovered no debris, and they contend the video appears to be a deep fake. Yet crucially, the US media is mostly avoiding reporting this, or examining the video. www.cbsnews.com/video/venezu...
