People need to be allowed to keep their ID cards
I hope everyone is aware of the threat to đłď¸â⧠ď¸trans Kansansâ IDs. If I had a Kansas ID, Kansas would ask me to surrender my ID. It’s nonsense. There’s never been a reckoning. Anti-trans moral panic is hotter than ever.
We need to talk about the Heritage Foundation âenchiladaâ

How Trump self-scored 36 points on LGBTQ rights â and why itâs a failing grade
The administration has done nothing whatsoever to support LGBTQ rights. The Trump administration has done nothing whatsoever in favor of LGBTQ rights. Don’t repeat its lie to the contrary. It causes pain and stress.
Republicans say: Make it hard to divorce again
The Party of Trump wants to stop your divorce. Independence? For whom? The Republican Party wants to end no-fault divorce. They want everyone to be married with children. This threatens everyone’s right to exit a bad marriage.
Transphobia is a bellybutton mirror
On the Tucker ânâ Carlos Show, insights from Naomi Kleinâs âDoppelgangerâ. We have to stop copying historical patterns of hate and cruelty. I try to reflect the world in ways that are good and true, not through a pipik-mirror.
