Please don't add me to any starter packs without asking first My goal is to be as kind as I can, but still curb-stomp racists, bigots, sexist, & anti-LGBTQIA+ jerks, & fight for abortion rights #MMIWG2S **A follow back isn't an invitation to DM.**

WV Senate passes 2 bills: 1 prohibits drag shows as “adult cabaret performances” on public property or where minors cd see them; 2 wd charge trans people using right locker rooms with indecent exposure as sex offenders. Most WV Dems backed both measures.
A graphic titled Trans Rights Readathon TBR. Book covers: How to be a Good Girl by Jamie Hood; Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl by Andrea Lawlor; Death and the First Idea by Rickey Laurentiis; Simplicity by Mattie Lubchansky.
I'm reading these books, which is what I want to do anyway! Here are some titles on my TBR.
If you need ideas to expand your reading, TRR has got so many lists: transrightsreadathon.carrd.co#resources
I'm matching donations supporting Trans formative Schools. Send me your donation receipt & I'll kick in the same amount.
And most importantly to me personally, I am matching donations to Trans formative Schools, which provides after school programs for kids in NYC. They also show up every time those kids are under attack.
I'm matching up to $1000. DM me your redacted receipt!

About: The Trans Rights Readathon is an annual call to action to readers and book lovers in support of Trans Day of Visibility (TDOV) on March 31st. How to participate: read and uplift books written by and/or featuring trans, nonbinary, 2Spirit, and gender-nonconforming authors and characters. Donate and fundraise for trans aid organizations in your community.
#TransRightsReadathon begins soon. It's a decentralized event, which means you don't have to sign up or do anything in particular, you just have to love trans people and trans books. Here's what I'm doing this year 🧵

My best friend’s sister, who CBP has been telling us different stories all day about, her phone just got turned back on. She is a US citizen born in Evanston. They said she was never detained at O’Hare after telling us she was, they said she was not transferred to Broadview, and now she's in a detention facility in WI.

Here's the Fund Me Friday thread for this week. Post your mutual aid below and I'll do my best to repost throughout the weekend.
Let's try to get some needs met this evening.
“Providing the homeless with a place to live may seem like a high taxpayer cost. But the alternative, it turns out, is more costly, research shows. Subsidized accommodation could actually be a bargain for the public, in purely economic terms.”

Hey, so, reminder that Tennessee Republicans are introducing a bill that would kill women who get an abortion.
I dug up the MAGAs names, numbers, emails, & a script to use when calling them. Men—we need to step up. Act. Inundate them. Shut this trash down ASAP.

Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.
NEW: Over 150k Texans this week faced deliberate voting barriers driven by Republicans’ decision to switch to precinct-only polling places.
Why did Tuesday’s primaries descend into chaos and punish so many voters? As one GOP official behind the effort put it:
“Because we can.”
New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.
Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google.
My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence!

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
Oh, marvelous! I sure am. Thank you so much.
Here's a feed if you're more into that: bsky.app/profile/alex...
1. The New Hampshire House has passed a public building bathroom ban that says it is a violation of the state civil rights act for a trans person to "assert" their identity gives them access to a bathroom.
It bans them from public bathrooms across the state.

Same here, but I did Love Medicine first, then Tracks, and have read everything of hers I could lay hands on ever since.
She's my favorite living author. Her works take up a whole shelf and then some.
(William Faulkner is my favorite who's passed away.)
again, proof that transphobia is a fascist social contagion
"Raul" is pruning grape vines in Madera. "The work's physically exhausting. I earn 31 cents per plant and must keep a steady pace throughout the day to make enough. The repetitive cutting and bending causes my arms & hands to cramp as I do this work for hours on end." #WeFeedYou
All because they want to wipe out trans adults but can't without a moral panic. "They take your kid, they change your kid" is the oldest conspiracy theory in the world. Can't have a dictatorship without a genocidal foundation.
I'm sure the proverbial crowd-pleaser question, 'do you know who I am?' goes over well there. 🤭
I hope they detain him for that as a starting point, and it gets worse for him from there.
If you know anyone in Rochester let them know that local MAGA villain Kevin Lockhart is doing DoorDash to try and scout out illegals to report.
I don't really use starter packs myself, but using this as a list for a jumping off place for research, or more dependable info might be good.
@jeffsharlet.bsky.social, maybe helpful for you and your students?
