Hardest thing to digest about the blowback to Talarico's recent comments, is the idea that he will gain more votes than he will lose and if Talarico loses, it will be trans folks fault. The centrist's response is radicalizing even more. Both can't be true. trans rights or else!

"You just have to convince people." Dawg, there are a dozen conservative websites dedicated to spreading lies about trans people and billions in election spending. I just had to croundfund an outpatient surgery and I'm one of the biggest trans writers of our time.

What did I learn last night? If you want your city to win a long denied championship then you need to elect a democratic socialist! #mayormandami #knicks

Won't the SAVE act disenfranchise a lot of MAGA voters? How many of them have a passport or still own their birth certificate? I think this might be a talking point to peel off some Republicans from supporting it.

I don't want Epic Wars. Epic movies are cool. Epic video games are great. Having your friend say Epic when you land a really cool trick is amazing. But a hard NO to Epic Wars.

It sure would suck if ICE was always stuck in a traffic jam caused by minor fender benders on all streets leading into and out of their current operating areas. They would be stuck just sitting there while wreck after wreck after wreck got cleared.

Trump ruins everything! I can't even feel relief from the fact that Dick Cheney has left this mortal coil because Trump is so much worse that Cheney actually seems reasonable in comparison

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone that's upset by what's happening in the USA just went downtown every night to meet other people that were also upset. Definitely not a protest, no one's in charge, we could call it an accounting or even better an assembly of like minded folks. In ATX, see u at Capitol

I deleted TikTok from my devices and deleted my account. Now that the US government is about to gain full access, I can no longer safely trust the app or algorithm. With the Chinese, even if they were collecting every scrap of data from me, they really couldn't do much to me personally, the US can

I miss that brief moment after I started transitioning and feeling confident about who I am. when men leered at me, I feared only sexual violence. I just realized within the past few days, 2 men leered at men and I couldn't tell if they wanted to kill me or fuck me. #translife

Thanks @alyssamerc.bsky.social for ruining the plot to of one of my must anticipated movies of the year. The one I spent the past few months avoiding all hype because I wanted to be surprised. It's still opening weekend! And I work Thursday through Monday.

The part of Textgate that bothers me the most is they are not supposed to be doing government business on Signal. This means there are more Signal threads and that they are actively trying to hide what they are doing from the public.

I have started to live as if I'm going to be dead within a year because I will never be taken to a camp and camps are inevitable. So, I started to lean into it by checking things off my bucket list and partying like the world is about to end. Don't get me wrong, I do hope I will see 2027.

Trump's political philosophy seems to be if you don't talk about it, it doesn't exists. Don't talk about race and racism doesn't exist. Don't talk about gender and sexism disappears. Rinse repeat

I just watched an anti-trans #TikTok live where they complained about transhumanism, which is actually a thing and has noting to do with being transgender.They think they are being smart with big fancy word. And end proving his little they comprehend about the world. #transgender #transandproud
