I wish people had longer memories so that Democrats who flip to attacking us because they have no actual beliefs would be punished for it but the electorate has the memory of a moth.

Yet another Democrat has released an ad decrying "boys in girls sports." This Democrat is NY-21's Democratic candidate for congress, Blake Gendebien. You can watch his full ad in our latest story. He joins several other Democrats releasing similar ads this cycle.

NY-21 Dem Congressional Candidate Blake Gendebien Releases Ad Decrying “Boys In Girls Sports”
This corresponds with a modest, but growing, trend: Democrats are capitalizing on anti-trans hysteria, or otherwise leaning into Republican narratives on so-called culture war issues.

So yeah, if you suppress all knowledge of queerness, then on some level, you do end up with fewer openly queer people. You get to have more miserable, self-hating stunted people instead. YAY YOU WIN. If you just want us gone, then yeah, that's a victory condition.

The "social contagion" thing drives me screaming angry. When I was young I had no clue trans ppl existed. I'd never met anyone trans. I saw cruel caricatures in pop culture occasionally. When I realized trans was a thing someone could be, it hit like a lightning bolt. My life felt newly possible.

What's happening is that Republicans are priming Democrats and Democratic voters for more violent forms of transphobia. They're manipulating people into caring about something that is most likely never going to affect them.

This is true. In 2016, I got into an argument with a gay man on a menswear forum. I've since made it my mission to make every man dress gay, thereby destroying his ability to tell who is actually gay and, ultimately, his chances of finding love. I built my social media following to achieve that goal
Someone on Twitter writes to me: "People should follow your advise if they want to look gay."

This is from American Samizdat on Facebook and discusses the sociological history of the word "woman" and why it has never been about biology.

The Invention of “Biological Women” (Part One: 1608 – 1950)
THIS IS NOT MY PERSONAL WORK! I've made a copy here to be easy to reference. The work in question goes to American Samizdat, on Facebook. All credit and copyrights belong to that author. I'm making a copy here so I can always find it. I will be making a copy of Part Two when it becomes available but the history of the word "woman" is fraught with sociological connotations and has had nothing to do with biological sex most of the time.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

how about some good news: new cat just dropped!!!!
a photo of a small, spotted wild cat, with orange fur and brown circular markings, staring up with big golden eyes.Meet the First New Cat Species Discovered in 100 Years

A small, spotted tiger cat from Bolivia may just be the beginning of a wave of new small cat species.

This 10-year-old male tiger cat is the first of his species (named Leopardus tilcayo) known to science. He is approximately 18 inches from head to end of body and weighs only 3 pounds, making him smaller than the average domestic cat. This video was captured at the Senda Verde Animal Refuge in Bolivia’s Yungas region, where he currently resides.
