this bill is legitimately a three-alarm fire. if they manage to define trans existence as explicit then there is nothing stopping them from genocide. i need every single cis person talking about this, calling their reps, getting out in the streets.

βThe state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.β
Some thoughts on the world order the Trumpists are attempting to create.
Thereβs a simpler way of saying this:
Donald Trump is using every tool and dirty trick at his disposal to extract as much wealth from the American people as possible in as little time as possible and skirt any consequence.
I hope Roy Cohnβs toasty wherever he is.
News you can use, from the @wired.com security team (who are the best in the biz).
They asked technologists, activists, aid groups, and cybersecurity experts for guidance on how to organize and collaborate in an age of surveillance. Hereβs the result:
