Currently halfway through The Power of the Badge by @emayfarris.bsky.social & @mirya.bsky.social and can’t put it down. (1) How’s this not been written yet? (2) Sheriffs are essentially… little kings. (3) Autonomy + Authority (+ Trump) = this is about to get so much worse.

Being trans right now is being considered so insignificant that you're hardly worth defending while also so much of a threat that you're worthy of annihilation. It’s dehumanizing on all sides.

Too many LGBTQ “community” spaces are stuck in a cis/white-centered Daughters of Bilitis time warp but try to claim they’re channeling the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries. Toss in some buzz about business sustainability and you’ve got a real issue with exclusionary practices.

This is horrifying story about how Florida is attempting to detransition trans prisoners calling their identity a delusion.

My dissertation defense is in two days, so I downed a Celsius and now find myself lying face-down on my living room floor. I feel like the Grinch, wallowing in self-pity and staring into the abyss at 4:00 p.m. on a Wednesday.

Justice Jackson asks about a child who does not want to grow breasts. Notable that thousands of boys have cosmetic surgery to remove unwanted breast tissue from their chests.
