Mimi @mimihansford.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Just putting it out there, if you genuinely believe you're a good trans activist despite using disgusting pejoratives against a trans person over a disagreement, you're either reaching hitherto unseen heights of ignorance, or are so self-involved it borders on sociopathy. 130
Reposted by MimiMarty Hades 🔥💀 @smartypantsmarty.com · 03/06/2026This is a Jess O'Thomson appreciation post. I get that people are scared and frustrated, but abusing Trans+ advocates online is fucked up. I’ve endured it. Jess endures it. So many people doing this work endure it. It’s quite unhelpful to have that to endure alongside everything else. 824740

I'm close to many trans people who are or have been homeless and SNAP being exempt from work requirements was often the only thing that kept them from going hungry. it's exceptional cruelty to target them. 126872
