“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

U.S. citizens — and most other folks who can visit Canada as a visitor — can come over to Canada for up to six months at a time. For trans women in the U.S. in particular, this fact may be worth taking advantage of immediately.

At a moment when trans people around the world are under attack from right-wing institutions and politicians, and Palestinians of all identities are resisting Israeli genocide, apartheid, and occupation, we join together to build safety and justice for all, including queer and trans people.

Today RFK and co. removed the COVID vaccine from the CDC's recommended immunization schedule for children and pregnant people. This is junk science. COVID puts children and pregnant people at higher risk for ER visits and hospitalizations, and Long COVID can cause chronic health issues for anyone.

Right wing politicians fully know that people will migrate, know that trans people will exist, know that sex work will happen, know that many people use drugs, know that the planet is burning.. Point of criminalization, dehumanization & denial is not actual beliefs - its cruelty to create precarity

Pierre Poilievre just stated that he would DEPORT anyone on a visa for "antisemitic" protests. Holy fucking trump 2.0. PS...... antisemitic is in quotes because the question was about pro Palestinian protest, NOT antisemitism.

Good summary of evidence about the bird flu strain recently found in cattle. It's concerning because this is the strain associated with death of man in U.S. and severe illness in B.C. teenager. Adaptation to cattle (mammals) is concerning.

People who don’t include disability liberation in their understanding of social justice will never make sense to me. Like what do you MEAN you oppose sexism, racism, and classism, but the minute the lived reality of that oppression starts showing up physically, all your energy just evaporates?

The Glorious Revolution is going to come mostly from care work being done outside the purview of the current system. The anger is VALID but please do not prioritize/fetishize violent action: most of what we need right now is how to get folks food, medicine, necessities, & luxuries without the state.

It took the Nazis 29 days to dismantle democracy in Germany. And from what I can tell, the Trump/Musk administration is poised to do the same in less than two thirds of that time.

Everything I've noted is crystal clear to most Black folks. Before the election and since. You don't see most us running around like the sky is falling. That's because we've been on this express train back to the racial nadir period for a minute... We're frightened too, but most of us are PISSED.

This needs saying. Within living memory it was literally illegal to be trans in public. Within living memory queer communities faced a horrific genocide. Within my lifetime anti-queer violence was far, far more widespread. People fought anyway. Do not assume all is lost. We do not have the luxury.

You need to understand that in 11 days, Trump has advanced anti-transgender policies to near genocidal intensity. Passports have been denied. ID documents confiscated. Banned trans medicine from those <19y. Essentially banned trans people from using bathrooms. This is the beginning of a genocide

This barrage of attacks on trans rights & personhood is intended to terrorize, divide & conquer us. Under siege, the tendency toward panic, paranoia & blame is intensified. So is the reflex towards apathy & dissociation. Neither will save us. We need to be emotionally centered & engaged

Not to be that wellness girl, but as the increasingly terrifying war of annihilation on trans people and many other communities continues, it is absolutely essential that we continue to practice the skills of spiritual & emotional resilience, if only to keep from turning on one another.
