I think I was about 9 when a substitute teacher let us watch a movie, and when it turned out he’d accidentally taped over it decided to let it run anyway. He finally turned off Predator after the scene where they discover the bodies.

The foot in the door
four frame comic. each frame has the text on top in white. first frame shows jk rowling. second frame shows trump and erdogan in suits doing thumbs up. third shows the istanbul landscape. fourth shows Talarico giving a speech in front of the podium. text reads:
"protecting the children"
has become the foot in the
door of fascism.
last weekend (sept. 12th-13th),
under the pretense of "protecting
the children," trump's turkish
bestie erdogan led a massive
anti-lgbtq crackdown.
in an extraordinary esca-
lation, legal proceedings were
announced against 160 people.
about 50 activists have been
arrested. associations and
homes have been ransacked
across the country.
so when we hear people who
are supposedly our allies use
the same language as erdogan,
we owe it to our turkish
siblings to call it out.

Australia Post is a government service, choosing to support transphobia. Shame on the management team who approved this dreck.

I’ll believe the Mouse actually wants to stand up to these goons when we get a canonically queer or trans main character in an animated feature.

Census forms asking my assigned sex at birth instead of my current legal sex. Do I commit a crime, or do I have my data incorrectly classified as a man?

1. Amnesty International has withstood threats from death squads and dictators. But it could not stand up to JK Rowling and the anti-trans movement she finances. It has apologized for calling those groups "anti-rights" after legal threats. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Steve Buscemi: How Do You Do, Fellow Kids?
Alt: The “How Do You Do, Fellow Kids?” meme. A clearly older man (Steve Buscemi) attempts to pass himself off as a teenager, with a backwards baseball cap, a red hoodie over a grey t-shirt emblazoned with a logo for “Music Band”, and carrying a skateboard. The text reads “How do you you do, fellow kids?”

My biggest problem right now is that every politician thinks it's politically expedient to throw trans folks under the bus, when in actual fact it's a huge win for both human rights and the voters you want to convince you're going to represent them kindly Could be a lesson to learn there, Doc!

So when will Swimming Australia debunk the disinformation behind their eligibility rules? Or is that protecting cis athletes from accusations of transphobia is more important than protecting trans athletes from actual transphobia?

“Meet me in the middle,” says the unjust man. You step forward, he steps back. “Meet me in the middle,” says the unjust man. Bigots are dead set on eradicating us, by laws, by social pressure, and if necessary by force. And when they succeed they’ll move onto a group you might actually care about.

This is what conservatives like Nationals MP Alison Penfold want to implement in Australia, forcing trans people to choose between humiliation and threats to personal safety, or exclusion from society. I want to make clear. No matter your reasoning, voting for bigotry makes you a bigot.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

t4t rep?
A classic “elf on a shelf” toy, next to a handmade doll. Both toys have red and white striped leggings and Santa hats. The doll has a crocheted skirt and a green top with a white scarf, whereas the elf toy has a red coat and a black belt. The doll is significantly taller than the elf.

So sick of tech bloggers and youtubers who seem to only use they/them pronouns to avoid correctly gendering trans women. You clearly spent a lot of time reading her extensive research on a niche topic, but you couldn't spare 5 seconds to observe the "she/her" in her bio?

Something I find completely alien as a concept is to hear someone from a different background pour their heart out about issues affecting them and their community and think, “wow, I don’t want to hear about this, goodbye.” How could anyone react that way? #comics #trans #transgender

Potentially silly idea: An OS-level setting to make USB keyboards go through pairing like BT ones do. Once a keyboard is paired, it gets whitelisted by VID/PID, serial if available, optionally by port) This would make rubber ducky attacks harder, since they’d have to match the existing keyboard.

The IOC made the decision to re-introduce gender policing for the 2028 Olympics. Here are the facts.


4 frame comics, where we see scenes from the 1936 olympic games in Berlin : the Berlin stadium, 5 women holding hula hoops in the shape of the olympics logo, athletes doing an obstacle course. the last frame is the 2028 Los Angeles olympic logo. the text reads :
the olympics have seen various
forms of gender policing since
the games of 1936 in nazi germany.

it was introduced as a way to
enforce the gender binary by
disqualifying people with inter-
sex characteristics or atypical
gender expression.
naked parades in front of a
jury, gynecological inspections,
chromosomal testing, certifica-
tions that only richer countries
could issue... these were all
attempts at gender policing by
the olympic committee between
1936 and 1996.
one after the other, these
practices were outlawed. they
were all found to be flawed,
misleading, humiliating, discrimi-
natory, racist, misogynistic.

since 2003, strict guidelines
have allowed intersex and
trans women to participate.
despite 20 years of inclusion,
there has only been one trans
woman who competed, not
winning any medal.

yet, we just learned that the I.o.C.
was looking into bringing back
gender policing to ban intersex
& trans athletes, in time for the
nazi germany olympics of 2028. 
oops, I mean united states.

Every year, January to April, people accuse me of fearmongering in my reporting. Every year around this time, bills pass. And without fail, every year, the ratchet tightens. And now Idaho just passed a bill that could put me in prison for years—for washing my hands in a bathroom.
