1. In yesterday's primary elections, anti-transgender Democrats found out the hard way why you don't throw transgender people under the bus.
Two anti-trans dems lost their primaries, including one that cast the deciding veto override vote, in blowouts.

Not my project, but I'd like to boost the Trans Rights Readathon. I'd like to see higher participation among indie trans authors and readers this year, since there's increasing pressure to remove trans people from the public eye transrightsreadathon.carrd.co
A concrete demonstration that this is about disenfranchising trans people-- their right to free movement and their right to vote-- not about gender at all.
The fourth Trans Rights Readathon is coming up this month! From March 17-31, folks around the world are reading trans books to (and this is important) raise money for trans rights activism
When you're making your reading list, don't forget lesser known indie authors who could use the boost!
the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light
Fun fact, US passports did not have a gender marker until 1977, when a rising trend in unisex fashion started freaking the government out.

I just became a recurring contributor to eqks.org
I especially urge my fellow cisgender men to step up and support your neighbors. Now is the time.
Does anyone have *personal* good experience w. any trans relocation orgs, before I tell people to send them money.
I have had a not-great experience last year (just general total unresponsiveness - I know people are overloaded, but a "sry we're overloaded" would've been nice.)

You, an individual, cannot "fix" the whole world. You can act at the scale of your life. You should act at the scale of your life.
You absolutely want this!!!!!!
Today, @mnaflcio.org, union members, and other Minnesotans marched to call for an end to ICE in our communities, justice for Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, and investments to help workers and neighborhoods recover and rebuild. Minnesotans demand accountability now. #ICEOut
I really appreciate this question. Thank you. You can help us by spreading the word through your networks. There are bound to be NYC residents in those networks. We need them to take action.
Seeing guys claim that AI is *already* intelligent and capable of original thought really gives the game away. It’s not about waiting for the technology to miraculously become better, it’s about convincing you it’s something that it’s not
According to an organizer, “all signatories are full-time employees, and nearly 30% are Google Cloud workers.”
Days after covering a protest last week, I realized I had been shot with a new so-called "less-lethal" munition that the LAPD is using more commonly at protests: the FN303. This week, Chief McDonnell said that officers used the FN303 because a judge banned the LAPD from using 40mm launchers.
NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.
This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.
Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.
Wait wait wait, this "drawdown" is because sheriffs agreed to break state law to help DHS with nazi crimes on the stipulation their legal costs are covered when people rightly say hey fucko thats illegal? This isn't a drawdown, it is just replacing some DHS goons with regular cops
2000 agents are still here. Woke up this morning to horns and whistles down my street -- panic jumped out of bed ready to run outside, but the cars were being pursued. ICE is still kidnapping people, still getting stymied at every turn, still brutalizing observers because they know they're losing.
Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.
We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...
Tear gas is banned in international warfare, yet classified as a “riot control agent” that law enforcement can use for crowd control.
“It just doesn’t work well, and it hits the weakest people the most, and causes the most complications in them,” an anesthesiology professor at Duke University said.
Thank you to everyone who demanded freedom for Liam. We won’t stop until all children and families are home.
Huzzah! We love to see communitea love like this!
We are now out of whistles, but will restock for Sunday’s whistle kit party. Donations of kit materials have been generously often and are most welcome!
It is absurd that Starbucks is still allowing ICE agents into stores.
Other businesses have updated their guidance to protect workers - why hasn’t Starbucks?

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.
Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”
"CBP stays at the border" might sound like a win, but keep in mind that this is what "the border" means to them www.aclumaine.org/know-your-ri...
The people of Minnesota did that. Not Schumer and Jeffries, not Walz and Frey, not the standard-bearers of decorum. The People.
