Happy Bi Visibility Day! I'm bisexual. I'm attracted to folks of my gender (gender queer) and to everybody else (folks who aren't gender queer).

I am somehow, someway, a queer elder now. I've had the privilege of being able to safely be out as bisexual for 28 years, and yes, that's a privilege. People will ALWAYS try to invalidate us. Don't let them get into your head, loves.

I can't speak specific to Chantal's experience, but I know survivors who felt so traumatized and violated during their time in such institutions that the forced-medication alone triggered rape flashbacks. Sane people have no idea how bad this shit gets, and how much these places get away with.

This month's @motherjones.com cover is astounding. Reposted with alt text:
Cover of the September-October issue of Mother Jones Magazine: a white background with the words "50 years of fearless journalism" in black print, centered above the name/logo of the magazine in large Bright Red. Below that in black, the words "the southern strategy — jim crow was dead and buried. Then came the Roberts court."

And then, framing those words, there are two sets of robes: to the left, the simple black robes of the Judicial Branch of the United States Government, as a Supreme Court Justice might wear; to the right, the white robes and hood of the KKK.

A white person's hand with cuff of business suit and shirt visible, reaches into the scene from the right, poised to grab the Klan robes.

My absolute, rock-bottom standard for trans allies right now is that when they see a post from a trans person saying that they can't vote for some anti-trans Dem & they're sick about all this, you offer a shoulder to cry on instead of a lecture on electing Nazis. That's it. That's all you gotta do.

wait fr??
Governor Abigail Spanberger quietly ended a rulemaking process initiated in the waning days of former-governor Glenn Youngkin's administration. The rule would have limited transgender students' ability to play sports and use facilities.
But Spanberger said over the weekend the rule is now dead.
Governor Abigail Spanberger told a crowd at Virginia Pridefest Saturday she was moved by the story of a transgender child and the issues their families face.
"And I tell you I burst into tears because of the fact that I want to make members of the
LGBTQ+ community know that you have a governor that values your community," Spanberger said from the Pridefest stage.

A painting of a striking, slender woman facing us directly and looking upward, from the shoulders up. She has dark, purple-black skin, large hoop earrings, and is wearing a bright orange top. Her round sunglasses reflect a gradient from orange to red to purple, and the sky behind her grades from a dark blue-green to a pale green at the horizon. Her hair is a perfectly round black afro, the silhouette of which is filled with stars.
