The film is written, directed, and co-stars Hitoshi Ozawa, a legendary Yakuza actor who is a villain in Yakuza 0, who got his fellow legends involved. This was his passion project inspired by one of his best friends, a trans woman, and he worked with the community for representative casting.

This I'm going to have to recommend as a trio since they are so closely connected. These stories feature Galaxy and Dreamer, two of DC's new trans fem characters written by trans fem authors to be read in the order shown here. They are fantastic, unique, and beautifully depicted additions for DC.
Cover to Galaxy: The Prettiest Star featuring Galaxy with long teal hair, red skin, pointed and connect halo horns wearing a trans pride shirt sitting with her adorable corgi.Cover to Bad Dream featuring Dreamer upside down, eyes closed, with stars and plants glowing around her head.Cover to Galaxy: As The World Falls Down showing Galaxy flying through the air in her superhero outfit of white and pink with flared skirt.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

This is what happens when you get loud and demand Dems not drop trans people. We CAN get orgs to realize this. But we can’t stop with Kaptur. She’s the worst but not the only one. There is NO acceptable anti-trans vote or statement or ad from a Democrat. None. GET LOUDER!

Siiigh...hopefully after the election something Trans related will trend for reasons that don't make me sigh, groan, angry and/or frustrated. In the meantime, keep reminding our Dem candidates to stand up for us and keep being our trans selves because there is no better way to tell them to f@#K off

This is such a good take on Trans Athletes, both in how to fix this problem and the historical similarities. If there are physical traits that give edges or cause safety concerns, then divide up sports by that (like weight classes). www.youtube.com/shorts/8dijv...

The image is of a four panel comic.
In panel one, we see a man sitting at a restaurant table. He is sweating. He says "Y-you have beautiful eyes".
The second panel zooms in on the man's face. He says, "I'm sorry. I'm just so nervous."
In panel three we see that a biblically accurate angel is sitting on the other side of the table.
In panel four we zoom in on the angel's face, who says "BE NOT AFRAID".

Iowa Dem. Gov. candidate Rob Sand was confronted at a rally yesterday over anti-trans positions. A constituent asked if he would walk them back. He refused to, and in fact said he supported sports bans. Another constituent shouted "COWARD!" in the background. Subscribe to support our journalism.

...this is like the third time "Debate of Dem's support on trans Americans" has popped up on Trending in the last few days, and I'm already so tired. It probably will pop up more in the weeks to come, but god some of the takes. A lot of strawman arguments on there, and it's so frustrating.

I'm quoting this, not to pick on Jay. They are spot on. More cis allies need to be asking this question. Because when trans people ask it, we're tsk tsk'd and chided for putting "purity tests" in front of progress.

As someone who is Trans and pretty politically involved (I do a decent amount of volunteering, and am a member of several Indivisible chapters)...some Trans discourse here over the last 24 hours here on Bluesky have been...rough. Not sure I should be weighing in but here we go. (deep breath)

There's a big difference between withholding your vote from certain Dems and advocating for not voting unless a candidate is perfect. And, let me also say: If you do decide to withhold a vote for a Dem, go out and vote. Leave that race blank, but vote otherwise.

As someone who grew up in New Mexico, this is the stupidest, most irresponsible, hilarious thing. Do it, coward. I want to see an executive order and you go there insisting people call it that. I want to see Apple/Google engineers debate on what to call it on their maps, like idiots.

This is beyond stupid. The whole point is that you: Present: See this awful, selfish old man and dislike him. Past: Find out he wasn't always this way, and what lead him to this (where you MIGHT begin to sympathize a little). Future: You see the consequences of living such a selfish, mean life.

This one hurts, and is way more personal to me (though unfortunately not super surprising). Iowa has a special place in my heart, I went to college there and it's where I started getting really involved politically (Obama's 2008 run, I was a precinct captain during the caucus).

A dark day for human rights.
four frame comic. first frame shows the logo of amnesty international. second frame shows jk rowling, smiling in the dark. third frame shows an empty classroom, with a pride poster almost falling from the wall. fourth frame shows a trans flag flying in the wind. text above all the images reads : 
on july 8th, amnesty Inter-
national uk published a report
titled “A Growing Threat: The
Anti-Rights Movement in the UK.”
it listed 117 orgs, including anti-
trans and anti-queer ones
backed by jk rowling.
the backlash was immediate
and brutal : rowling pledged
to cover the fees of anyone
who wished to sue amnesty.
the report was taken down
within 48 hours.
this morning (july 31st), amnesty
fully capitulated and released
an apology to anti-trans orgs,
which, it said, should not have
been "collectively labelled as
anti-rights". rowling
celebrated.
an organisation that
bravely faced fascist regimes
and reported human rights
violations for 65 years has caved
to rowling's power and bigotry.
it's a dark day for human rights.

AIPAC is 100% pushing pro Israel candidates, and is doing so in shady ways, but this is disingenuous and a bad take. Biss had TONS of attack ads from AIPAC run against him, hell more so than Kat. AIPAC's candidate was Laura Fine, who lost. She comes off as a sore loser, genuinely disappointing.

She lost to a guy AIPAC spent seven figures attacking and he proudly reveled in it. The one they backed came third. To call a Biss win "AIPAC bought" is grossly dishonest, and embracing it amounts to El-Sayed attacking an incoming Dem congressman who *agrees* with both of them about Israel & AIPAC.

In the IL-9 race, AIPAC supported Laura Fine who came third; Fine was not splitting votes with Abughazaleh, but with Daniel Biss, who ultimately won--and whom AIPAC also attacked. This narrative of hers may be good for clicks, but it's ahistorical and corrosive.

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica. 
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica. 
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

absolutely flabbergasting to see people who have so enthusiastically succumbed to despair. like okay denethor, but some of us are gonna actually face the armies of mordor in battle nonetheless.

The thing about Denethor is that he not only succumbed to despair, he wanted to ensure that Faramir succumbed with him. Similarly, a lot of people now are not only succumbing to despair, they're actively proselytizing despair, trying to convince others to join them in their hopelessness. Despair is apparently lonely and they want company in their self-immolation.

btw denethor succumbed to despair bc he was doomscrolling on the palantir. Sauron tweaked his algorithm so he only saw bad news, and he fell into the trap of thinking the world couldn't be saved.

Make a terrible comic you say? Sure, I don't think I can make anything else! #makeaterriblecomicday #makeaterriblecomicday2026
A picture taken with a phone camera, poorly framing a sticky note on a kitchen counter. Upon this sticky note is a BADLY drawn angry stick figure flipping you off, with a badly handwritten caption of "Amanda after I called her a 'Cutie Patootie'"...It could be considered, by some, to be a comic.Before thee lyeth a photographic image mine own hands have taken with a cellular camera, poorly framing thy sticky note laid upon a kitchen counter. Visible upon thy sticky note shows a vicious brute figure made of sticks, clutching a foam sword in her villainous clutches.  She threatens yet another figure made of sticks , made to represent myself, crying out "Noooooooo".

I am begging you. Please learn about stress/discomfort tolerance.
Practice raising it. You need this to survive. If someone online can ruin your day with a throwaway comment, you desperately need to understand discomfort tolerance and consciously, systematically build that shit.
Also! Stress tolerance is such an important skill that having a learning disability in that area is a major symptom of a whole lot of other disabilities/mental illnesses! Struggling with it is a huge part of life! It sucks!
Am I saying everyone with misophonia needs to listen to chewing noises all day? No. But you need to find ways to tolerate it enough that you don't treat others like shit if they make a mouth noise near you.
No, you don't have to read the fic with your trigger tags. But you do need to be able to handle scrolling past the tags without being upset.
It is hard! But not having it also makes you so so so easy to manipulate.
That grandma is racist AF because her mom raised her to be uncomfortable around black people and she never fought that discomfort. Trans people make so many cis people uncomfortable and that discomfort turns into bigotry real fast.
Letting your discomfort dictate your actions and beliefs about things is a great way to become a terrible person. Learn. Discomfort. Tolerance.
