as algorithms increasingly determine individual workers' pay, independent reports like this that reveal the impact on workers are crucial. amazing work led by @powerswitchaction.org and GWR that I was VERY happy to help with and contribute to!

language in the gender EOs sneakily frames having ID inconsistent with your birth sex as fraud. it now might be enforced for visa holders attempting to enter the US www.erininthemorning.com/p/marco-rubi...

A new state department cable, meant to target transgender athletes, indicates a potential broader application to all transgender visas, which it states must contain "sex at birth."

I think what’s going on here that these people are trying to find some true binary relating to biological sex. Genital morphology won’t do it. Sex chromosomes don’t do it. So they’ve retreated to gamete size. I think the use of large and small cell is also a hedge in this direction, not prudishness.
Excerpt from Trump executive order:

(d) "Female" means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

(e) "Male" means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.

The Teamsters will launch the largest strike against Amazon in U.S. history beginning at 6 a.m. EST on Thurs., Dec. 19. The nationwide action follows Amazon’s repeated refusal to follow the law and bargain with the thousands of Amazon workers who organized with the Teamsters. Let's fucking go! 🔥

The real trap here is that the Republicans have made defending civil rights seem like a frivolous thing and a whole lot of liberals are falling in line. Even if it was a culture war, so what? This would be a war worth fighting. What are we even doing here, people? Get it together.

This isn't a culture war. This is the only trans congresswoman, ever being bullied through the press and legislation, and having only 1 of hundreds of colleagues stand up for her. They can do more than 1 thing at a time. Defending her will not take so much effort that they can't do their jobs.

My job keeps me in almost daily contact with members of civil society. These are people working tirelessly to defend people’s rights & ensure the government doesn’t just ignore defenseless communities. This bill genuinely frightens them. Call your reps. (It matters.) Tell them fuck this bill.
