Trans and queer writers review thirteen essential queer books (that weren’t covered by the New York Times Book Review during Pamela Paul’s reign).
THE US GOVERNMENT HAS ARRESTED HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE, AND ATTEMPTED TO DEPORT SOME, WHO WERE BRAVE ENOUGH TO PROTEST THIS GENOCIDE WHILE YOU SAT AT HOME SUCKING YOUR OWN DICK.
My husband got Covid like two years into the pandemic and it took him a solid six months or more working with a personal trainer to regain his cardio capacity and stamina.
Some folks treated me like a naive child for believing we had the money to cancel a portion of student loan debt
on the bright side i can't imagine losing a democratic primary against ilhan omar as an ICE lawyer is much work at all
And like so

we told everyone this but some people named "jesse singal" and other idiots were like "we're going to pretend to be shocked when it happens later thanks" i hope they eat glass and live
1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.
An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.

Please do read @floralashes.bsky.social's paper on this.
Also, make no mistake - if the NHS plans this, they already have decided what result they will get, and it means they intend to/have been tasked to end *all* UK trans healthcare.

now the Ayatollah is scoring off me, oh that's it
when the most prominent meme about a minority is that the attempted suicide rate approaches half of the *surviving* population of that minority, yeah, they know what they’re doing when they target us.
