I was just removed without explanation from Ben Shapiro and TPUSA’s event at UT Austin. TPUSA apparently circulated my photo to security, which was waiting to kick me out as soon as I got in.

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

As someone who's lived here their whole life, has a lot still to do here and does not want to actually be forced out of their home, I really fucking hope we can change trajectories here this year.

I would also like for my siblings that live differently, more loudly, more radically than I do to have the same freedoms and rights as I should have. I am not an exception or a model tranny for cohering in the ways I do. There is and should be no “correct” way to “deserve” rights as a trans person

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

Another study on youth transition that find that about 97% of all youth who says they're trans turn out to be. Only 1.1% who start HRT stopped it for any reason whatsoever. This is, like, the fifth youth transition study that I'm aware of, and all of their results have been identical.

The point of legislated dehumanization is never just the law itself but the creation of a climate in which institutions become more timid and companies more cautious. Erasure of a people under capitalism arrives first as a thousand risk calculations.

On the fourth of July, 1980, about fifteen trans women went to one of the most upscale public swimming pools in Milan, took off their tops, and started lounging around. It was a Friday, and the height of the summer vacation, so there were plenty of families with young children around. 1/

What's gutting about this is that Juniper seems to have had a family who supported and loved her, she was in a community that has been explicitly welcoming to trans people, and a man still murdered her. She was living the life so many trans people can only dream of, and it simply didn't matter.
