Tomorrow, on October 1, the biggest transfer of wealth from the working class to the wealthy hits a critical milestone. Many of the provisions from the Big Ugly Bill will go into effect, harming hundreds of thousands of Michiganders in order to create tax cuts for the richest people in America.

Beshear really has been a light in the darkness on trans issues. He's not perfect, but he's been remarkably consistent on telling other Dems that they need to continue standing up for us. It makes me wonder if he has a trans person in his life.

Trans people are not only "already dead" but we are also apparently a "trolly problem". You know, theoretical in nature and not really a problem for those who have already decided we only exist to serve them.

When Third Way says that Dems should hold off their anti-trans strategies, you know things are changing. The organization tends to be more centrist, and they are noticing the same thing the far-right is... the Republican anti-trans campaign cycle is NOT working this year.

There are times where it is easy to become discouraged and those are the moments where fear might direct action. Something I learned is that those are two different mechanisms. Be discouraged, be afraid, those are valid feelings. But don't let them consume you. Do the things despite the fear.

Please stop citing how small the trans community is in relation to every other community. I get how this is a way of explaining how we little danger we pose.

Every time the cis people of the LGBTQ community feels threatened or inconvenienced, they throw trans people to the lions. And every time they do that they lose more of their rights to the lions they keep feeding us to. We won’t be gone, a genocide didn’t remove us, we will remember your treachery.

It is a political ad run by Republicans against a Democratic candidate that is a complete lie. Children should not get permanent sex change surgery even if a parent wants them to and there aren't any doctors who would perform that surgery.
