The man wrote a book literally titled β€œcis white gays.” I feel like that tells you all you need to know.

I'm sorry to remind everyone of the existence of hte worst magazine in America, but Kansas is literally taking away trans' people's driver's licenses, and the Atlantic has decided to publish a thumbsucker about whether effeminate boys are feeling pressured to transition

Also a shoutout to @erininthemorning.com and @marisakabas.bsky.social, whose amazing independent journalism played an integral role in this piece. I highly recommend becoming a (paid!) subscriber of both of them!

She’d Never Changed Her Gender Marker. Kansas Invalidated Her License Anyway. β€” Assigned A trans Kansas resident recently changed her name but not her gender marker on her license, fearing what Kansas may do if she did. The Kansas DMV still flagged her ID.

This story exemplifies this contradictory surveillance. A trans woman never changed her gender marker on her license, and yet her license was still invalidated under SB 244.

New from myself and @paisleycurrah.com -- Kansas's SB 244 criminalized compliance nearly overnight. It's also yet another instance where states try to claim we don't exist while simultaneously tracking us.

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
No. 25A810
ELIZABETH MIRABELLI, ET AL. U. ROB BONTA,
ATTORNEY GENERAL OF CALIFORNIA, ET AL.
ON APPLICATION TO VACATE INTERLOCUTORY STAY ORDER
[March 2, 2026]
PER CURIAM.
Before us is an application to vacate a Court of Appeals order staying a permanent injunction entered by a District Court on behalf of parents and teachers who claim that certain California policies violate their rights under the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment and the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The parents object that these policies prevent schools from telling them about their children's efforts to engage in gender transitioning at school unless the children consent to parental notifi-cation. The parents also take issue with California's requirement that schools use children's preferred names and pronouns regardless of their parents' wishes. The teachers object to their compelled participation in the implementation of the State's policies.

When the Ninth Circuit stayed the injunction, the parents and teachers filed this application seeking vacatur of the Ninth Circuit's stay pending appeal.
II
We grant the application and vacate the stay with respect to the parents because this aspect of the stay is not "justi-fied under the governing four-factor test." Alabama Assn. of Realtors v. Department of Health and Human Serus., 594 U.S. 758, 763 (2021) (per curiam) (citing Nken v. Holder,

TCS New York Marathon Donation

If you're feeling lost in the wake of Skrmetti, one thing you can do is give $ *directly* to trans people. I am raising money for @pointofpride.org as part of my NYC marathon-- 100% of money I raise goes directly to trans people. Our team is also the only all trans/nonbinary team for the marathon.

some helpful reminders:

-not all jews support israel
-criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic
-being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas
-arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment
-violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad

Definitely extreme endurance. In long distance cycling events (like 350 miles min) women frequently destroy the overall field. Lael Wilcox is a great (but far from only) example. Another interesting stat in these races is the % of women vs men finishers. Women basically always finish at higher rates

hello cis friends
this is what people mean by trans genocide

if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported

this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order

it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

The REAL reason so many Democrats are upset about entitlements (social security, medical, etc) fraud investigations is that they are using your taxpayer money as handouts to attract and retain ILLEGAL immigrants. Their future voters.
That's what it's all about.

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff β€œbecause the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

The SAVE act would not only disenfranchise millions of cisgender women, it would effectively make it impossible to for the vast majority of trans people to vote as well.

Today the @nytimes.com sought to whitewash its central role in laundering anti-trans falsehoods and turbocharging anti-trans attacks nationwide. My reporting showed that editorial leadership was aware of this depravity which is why this disingenuous piece can’t erase the scale of what they’ve done.

On May 10, 1933, Nazis burned the library of The Institute for Sexual Science.

The Institute was founded by Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld. Its community clinic pioneered healthcare for queer, trans, & intersex people.

The Institute was targeted & attacked as part of a Nazi government censorship program.

I *really* cis need folks to get very angry and very loud about what's happening to trans people. Please, call all of your reps, but also talk to other cis people and make them understand what's at stake. Tell them this is a 100 alarm fire for us.

Trump Administration Formally Blocks Trans Care For People Under 19 On Federal Plans The U.S. Office of Personnel and Management has formalized Trump's executive order with health insurance carriers.

BREAKING: OPM is instructing the largest federal employer health benefits program to exclude coverage for gender-affirming care for people under 19 in order to comply with Trump's executive orders, according to a document I obtained. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

At this point it should be incredibly obvious that the new presidential administration is obsessed with trans people and genitals and could truly give a flying fuck about the economy or whether anyone's children will live to adulthood

And the press should report on them like they are fucking creeps
