And also because this country doesn’t actually like women, so there will be no real consequences for this behavior. πŸ˜’πŸ˜’πŸ˜’

And like, I do not care about men’s hockey at all, but I watch basically every PWHL game (except Minnesota; boo transphobes), so I don’t think they’re showing up and I’m somehow missing it. I think they’re just not showing up. Because they don’t actually like women.

So like, it seems pretty clear that men’s hockey teams are inviting these PWHL players as PR, to say, β€œhey, look! We like women!” But they’re not actually SUPPORTING the women by going to their games or highlighting their accomplishments.

A thing I have noticed in the wake of the misogyny at the Olympics is that PWHL players are showing up at lots of men’s hockey games, usually with much fanfare by the hosting team. But what is NOT happening is men’s hockey players showing up at PWHL games.

Kansas informs trans residents their driver’s licenses become invalid on Thursday Some transgender Kansans said they had received the letters from the Department of Revenue. Others hadn’t by Wednesday evening.

Grace is a foreign concept to these people. 🀬

Remember that actions against transfolk are the tip of the spear

β€œPlease note that the Legislature did not include a grace period for updating credentials.”

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

Tell HHS: Hands Off Our Care Take action with ACLU People Power!

New rules by the Trump administration attempt to ban gender-affirming health care for trans youth across the country.

Today is the last day to speak up and sign our petition opposing these dangerous policies.

Hey if your kid is taking an online class that uses Honorlock proctoring, please PLEASE complain to the school.

It accesses the student's video, mic, and files, requires a photo of the student and A FULL VIDEO SCAN OF THE STUDENT'S ROOM for their AI.

If the Epstein files teach you nothing else!

AI simply cannot stand in front of a classroom, gesticulating wildly and writing semi-illegibly on chalkboards, both of which are key to building rapport and convincing your students you are worth learning from

Trump administration removes Rainbow Flag from Stonewall National Monument The Trump administration removed a large Rainbow Flag from a flagpole at the Stonewall National Monument, the National Park Service confirmed to Gay City News

Moving the Pride flag from Stonewall? This is how seemingly innocuous laws from this administration implement an insidious agenda of erasure.

BREAKING: The Senate just blocked a bill that would have renewed ICE's budget without real, enforceable changes.

This is a direct result of hundreds of thousands of people across the nation demanding that our Senators vote no.
