So after the terrible week that we've all had as trans people, let's do something to uplift ourselves. I'm challenging all of you to post a thirst trap or just a “I'm proud of myself” photo in the comments, and let's share some love with each other.

My heart breaks for trans folks in Kansas who are being notified by the state that they need to immediately surrender their drivers licenses. Failing to do so and driving with a now invalid could lead to arrest, charges, and revocation of driving privileges.

I’ve never used a scene name in my 37+ years in the Leather communities. And I don’t see a need to do that with my BDSM coaching/mentoring clients. But now……I’m contemplating adding a platform based income generating account and I’m thinking I should have a name for those purposes.

45 years ago today, Toronto police raided four gay bathhouses, arrested nearly 300 people and sparked such fierce backlash and protests from the city's queer community that it resulted in fully consecrating the Pride movement in Canada. A dark and ugly moment that yielded generational change. 🏳️‍🌈🇨🇦

“Gay ideology” usually refers to gay people being visible, expressing our identities, forming communities, fighting for our rights, etc. Now “gender ideology” evokes similar in relation to trans folk. And when LGBT people become an “ideology,” our humanity degrades and we become targets for erasure.

McBride and her ilk think that taking an incremental approach will work. The reality is - that never works. Trans people need to treat our lives with the same urgency that we approached the HIV/AIDS crisis. We didn’t apologize for our demands because our siblings were DYING. Just like now.

“In controlling trans people’s freedom of identity, the establishment is sending a warning shot to all of those who dare to live a life outside of prescribed gender roles and expectations. Freedom for trans people, ultimately, means freedom for everyone.” Freedoms for all of us require solidarity.

If you are a young trans person and have seen today’s massively wrong SCOTUS decision, do not give up. If you can, get yourself to a safe state. If you can’t, find ways to disrupt the systems where you live. And remember - we exist. We have always existed. We will always exist.

this, from Thomas, is another example of the transphobes citing *the effects we want* as negatives and excluding any and all context. "Irreversible changes to the vocal cords" is what I WANT out of T. The Cardio risk is in line with cis men. Same with the cancer risk. It's all bullshit.

Prescribing such high doses of testosterone to girls induces “hyperandrogenism,” which can cause increased cardiovascular risk, “irreversible changes to the vocal cords,”
“clitoromegaly and atrophy of the lining of the uterus and
vagina,” as well as “ovarian and breast cancer.” Id., at 772–
779. Giving high doses of estrogen to boys induces “hyperestrogenemia,” which can produce similarly severe side effects including, among other things, increased cardiovascular risk, breast cancer, and sexual dysfunction. Id., at 779–
781. And, for girls and boys alike, “it is generally accepted,
even by advocates of transgender hormone therapy, that
hormonal treatment impairs fertility, which may be irreversible.” Id., at 520–521; accord, W. Hembree et al., Endocrine Treatment of Gender-Dysphoric/Gender-Incongruent

The targeted shootings of Democratic politicians in Minnesota is a stark reminder of why we protest. Does it remind you of anything? Putin killing Navalny or any of his political rivals? This is an attempt to silence the majority of people who oppose this regime. 1/2

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people. Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

I miss the 70’s - 90’s Prides blatant, in your face, sexuality of it all. One of the things that sets us apart from the cis hets is our rejection of puritanical shame over the entirety of who we are. I’m not ashamed of being trans, queer, poly, & Leather. I’m PROUD as hell. #Pride2025
