BC’s disastrous snap election has put many minorities at risk in the province, including First Nations, Trans, and immigrants’ human rights. So where do we go from here?

This situation has also put Turtle Island/Canada as a whole, into high risk territory for Trans people. Given that all three provinces that offered most of the surgical GAC, under right wing governments. Putting other provinces and territories at risk as they relied on these provinces for such care.

Josh has ensured that Trans people have literally no one to vote for in Iowa. If you’re arguing to take away our healthcare, you’re telling us your intent to kill us. Many of us will not survive without proper healthcare. Our right to healthy lives shouldn’t be a f****ng political talking point.

erininthemorning.comIowa Dem Josh Turek Releases Anti-trans Ad Calling For A Federal Funding Ban On Trans CareThe impact of Turek’s proposal would be profoundly harmful for transgender people.

In good news out of Aotearoa (New Zealand), the high court struck down the ban on pubertal suppressants. Stating that this was unjustified discrimination, and of course pointing out that the science behind the care shows clear benefits.

This also comes at a time when an election has been called, meaning the balance of power between parties could change in a positive way. Be sure to enroll to vote by October 25th as same-day enrollment is no longer allowed. And vote by or on November 7th!

There’s zero justification for it. Any attempt at arguing against inclusion boils down to you not knowing the stats about assaults, nor the science behind transitioning, or that you want to repeat segregation against another marginalized group.

Democrats try the bold strategy of: “Hey what if we lost votes” in another spineless attempt to throw Trans people under the bus. Democratic candidate Annie Andrews knows better, but opted to use transphobia by calling trans women “biological men” in response to her campaign trailing behind

Democrats abandoning Trans people spells disaster. Not only does it harm countless trans people (if that wasn’t enough for you to care about it), it also affects the candidates’ chances of winning.

These candidates will still get attacked as if they supported us In the same way they will get called “socialists” even when they’re far from it. But DSA candidates have shown you win, and win big, when you stand by actual principles. When you stand by human rights.

The City of Paris is setting the example on not tolerating intolerance. After initially announcing the city’s Pride March happening on October 3rd, their post received a barrage of hateful comments. The municipality sent the comments to the courts and promptly deleted them from the post afterwards

“[…]So, your enjoyment of these shows, and continued support of these shows, is supporting my eradication.” “These people [Elon Musk and Rowling] are Nazis,” Wachowski continued. “They’re literal Nazis.” Couldn’t have said it better myself 👏

This directly harm trans youth and every single hospital that caves to this authoritarian regime should have to pay up to each and every family of trans kids in their state.

I will never vote for a Democrat that abandons transgender people. It's a cancer and I'll take the pain of a Republican over losing Democrats as a party and therefore losing our rights for an entire generation with nobody left to fight for us. We cannot reward this at all.

Iowa Democratic Governor Candidate Rob Sand becomes the latest to throw transgender people under the bus. In an interview this weekend, he told Politico that "girls sports are for girls," decrying Democrats for being too caught up in "culture war" issues. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Climate change is causing massive global issues and every government has a responsibility in trying to mitigate it. Yet the current government in Turtle Island/Canada is trying to skirt its responsibility by demanding the court strike down an effort by an environmental youth group.

That effort by Ecojustice would ensure our country update its regulations to meet its climate target. That’s it. And even this, the government doesn’t want to be responsible for.

I’m sorry, as if half of this country wasn’t just engulfed in smoke from devastating fires… Not to mention his constant attacks on First Nations and who the fires overwhelmingly affected. What a vile pos. I’ll put posts below on how you can help the people affected by this climate catastrophe.

We told you so? For years and years, we’ve told you repeatedly that going after Trans people, and more often trans women, in sports would ultimately lead to the destruction of ALL women’s sports. They are moving to now try to strip equal protections for women and girls.

lgbtqnation.comHeritage Foundation now targeting women's sports after SCOTUS' anti-trans sports ruling - LGBTQ NationProject 2025's architects say that Title IX and women's sports harm men's sports and "feminine graces."

“Yenor claims that the Title IX requirements should be altered to allow women to be excluded from some sports with different options offered instead.” Because apparently, sports are not “womanly enough” and takes away from ones’ duty to be a mother(aka be a walking womb for cis men to control).

This is my personal experience. Don’t take this as anything universal. There are as many experiences as there are Trans people. But I’ve just come to a point where even trying to remember what was before is difficult. I’ve always just been me, Alice, the woman you see and know here.

And even with screenings for levels, every body is different. Someone could be in the average levels, yet for their particular body, that could be too high and still cause those issues.

It’s why as trans people, we get constant monitoring of our levels and progress to determine what works for us (when we have proper access, something being taken away by this regime).

Trans Wonder Woman is such a badass inclusion and wonderful representation. While this specific instance is Nia Nal in Dream Girls # 1 (which has an explanation that I won’t spoil), I really wish we could have a mainline Wonder Woman series where she is Trans. And not just a special issue.

And while Marvel keeps shying away from proper inclusion in the MCU (2 minutes scenes they cut in movies), I have to hand it to DC for giving us some a few main and side characters that are Queer 💜

According to Wyoming, we don’t even have the right to defend ourselves… She was attacked and injured. All she did was take out her gun with the safety on and the man who assaulted her backed away. Yet SHE faces two felony charges? Not the people who committed an actual crime against her

slate.comDo Trans People Have “Stand Your Ground” Rights? Wyoming’s Answer May Be “No.”Albany County Circuit Court Judge Robert Sanford agreed with the prosecutor that there was probable cause that Kelver committed assault.

It’s Pride month, so I’ll be taking a note from Stormé DeLarverié, Sylvia Rivera, Marsha P. Johnson, and all those who instrumental during the Stonewall Riots and fought for Queer liberation unapologetically. We don’t tolerate “ugliness”, as Stormé would say, against any of our people. 🧵

We deserve to live freely like anyone else. Free from bigotry, from discrimination, from fear mongering at our expense, from fascists hellbent on our eradication. And we will fight anyone who gets in our way 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

This cowardly move only serves to remove any teeth actual legislation would’ve had. EU countries can simply ignore these recommendations (coming in 2027) so long as there are no real consequences for not following them.
