This is heartbreaking and so representative of the way that I think we (specifically queer folks) become so embroiled in wars of righteousness online over conflicting needs that we ruin each others' lives. "Community" is not trying to destroy and demand total obsequience in conflict.

trans people are by and large the working class. we get paid less than cis people overall (trans men make less than cis women, and trans women make less than everyone). we face housing and job discrimination. when will the conmentariat get this into their goddamned heads

I feel it’s crazy that nobody outside of trans people and REALLY invested allies seems to know that the internal trans refugee crisis is one of the biggest internal refugee migrations the United States has ever experienced.

what's crazy to me about this is that there are Indian and Asian students at every flagship university in Texas because that's who lives here and gets into our top colleges. It was like this a decade ago!!!

But that feeling of a shared bond among all Americans in the early weeks after 9/9/1999 is something I’m so glad I got to experience. Because it’s the thing that I think we’re missing the most today.

this is sort of a separate point but this is also why i love Audrey's shirts. I think it's honestly more provocative these days to attach the statement specifically to oneself, to insist that it's the kind of preference one can have, without making it a proclamation over all trans-kind

while i think the "grunge's Kid A moment" thing is a bit much, No Code is definitely an underrated and compelling album in a lot of ways if you've never heard it. me and @lastyearsmodel.bsky.social did a podcast episode about it a few years back btw kitschfork.podbean.com/e/15-better-...

truly? honestly? i love bubsy 3d. i liked bubsy 2 as a child so the character doesn't bug me too much and i just really love exploring those surreal, textureless, abstract worlds. if i was trying to beat it, maybe i'd hate it, but i love just going around it.

in my experience the house parties were closer to Superbad than any of this, but more than feeling old this post just makes me reflect on how long lockdown was and how important even 2 or 3 years can be when you're young — that's practically a lifetime.

If you listen really closely you can hear Eddie Vedder yell like Waluigi at the beginning of Evenflow. But it'll really get you to thinking when you realize that Evenflow predates Waluigi by many years. So it's probably more appropriate to say that Waluigi sounds like Eddie Vedder.

I mean it wasn't all sunshine and roses — trans women were still a major joke, there were murders, etc — but it really says something about where we're at now that the 90's would seem idyllic.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

Probably controversial but legitimately the worst show I've ever seen was REM in LA during the Around the Sun tour. Stipe started with a bold "i know you wanna hear the hits but we're hear to do the new stuff" and the rest of the night was dirge after boring dirge. We left before the encore.

I think a lot of people who obsess over Disco Elysium should spend less time litigating its legacy and play another game, like Norco, which is a masterpiece that not enough people played.

the fact that the average person just does not give a half of a shit about trans people and what is being done to us daily (and what is being threatened) is really really really starting to wear me down. just total apathy, even from the people that purport to care

both parts of this matter: this would be a near ban in all states; there’s a runway here where fighting back helps hold up falling sky for trans kids. every day matters. & if you’re like “it’ll be fine—they’ll just wait til after trump” i want you to recall what happened to *your* body from 14-17.
A near ban in all states
Both supporters and opponents of transgender rights agree that, taken together, the forthcoming rules could make access to pediatric gender-affirming care across the country extremely difficult, if not impossible.
The care is already banned in 27 states.
"These rules would be a significant escalation in the Trump administration's attack on access to transgender health care," says Katie Keith, director of the Center for Health Policy and the Law at Georgetown University.
"I think it's really, really important to note that nothing is changing immediately," she explains.
"These would be proposals that would go out for public comment, it would take months for the Trump administration to issue a final rule, and then, if past is prologue, we would see litigation over whatever the final rules are."
