Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

anyone in public life take note: any kind of pivot to the center, such as, " oh, let's make some rules for the ice agents that they'll have to follow! " is going to age like milk. are you telling me they never had rules before, Cory booker? coming up a bit short there.

trans kids should have access to healthcare. same as cis kids. ANYTHING that their parents and doctors think would have a positive impact. Not complicated.

we are going to be paying out billions in reparations to people when we get on the other side of this mess. 90% income tax plus wealth tax is in no way too high a price for the billionaires who backed trump to pay.

The medication stockpile bill is the bill I had pegged this year as the most important kind of bill to pass given federal threats, with a short time window to make it happen. Washington passed the same bill earlier this year. It's so shameful for Newsom to veto this bill.

1. Yesterday, the press gave Gavin Newsom favorable coverage for signing pro-LGBTQ+ bills. Little noticed, however, was that he vetoed one of the most important ones: a bill allowing trans people 12 month HRT stockpiles, protecting them from federal threats. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

Weird how Robert Redford and Ozzy Ozborne had zero people calling them pieces of shit after they died, by the simple virtue of not being giant pieces of shit

the "where are all the protests against trump" people became the "these protests against trump are bad optics" people so quickly you may have missed it

the narrative is everything!

One thing that I'm increasingly coming to believe is that stories are going to be central to what comes next. Stories of the harm done. Stories of the great things achieved by government in the past. Stories of valor kindness and quotidian simple resistance.
