My gay and trans identity isn’t a little magic saltshaker
But it is nonetheless a favorite TV show, so keep tuning in! You can’t have someone else’s identity because you can’t be them. Even if you could have it, sprinkling their identity on your work wouldn’t guarantee cash.
The ‘But why do trans…?’ questions often just ask about being human
Of course humans will disagree with and disappoint each other. So where are we going together? What’s the ultimate goal of all our values, judgments, opinions, discernments? What’s the end game we’re playing? Where are we going with all this change?
You are not seeing things. You are seeing change.
‘Trans’ is very broad and it is a construct, and I am grateful to learn from this. The benevolent trickster walks the path of unfolding tricks. We are tricked. We are surprised. We leap. We are foolish and wise.
European medical orgs: Trans kids need access to puberty blockers
Organizations in three European countries recommend trans kids’ access to gender-affirming care. Therapists can’t help you get feelings & identities you don’t & won’t have on your own. For lots of mainstream medical orgs, this isn’t controversial.
Let me tell you something gorgeous about regret
We will begin but this path cannot end yet. We don’t know how to exist without the way it was. The well has never been so deep. We’ve just wandered into it again.
What will the Log Cabin Republicans say about the second Trump presidency?
I can hardly wait to find out. Maybe it will even find a way to benefit a gay person somewhere. Today is February 6, 2025. A few things happened since Trump was inaugurated on January 20. Log Cabin is telling us that he loves and respects LGBT people.
‘Jurisdiction’ isn’t ‘child custody’
Though if it were, I’d say we should go look for the trans kids in custody. Republicans are mad about this. Perhaps they should take up their complaint with the trans kids they believe Tim Walz has shipped to the moon.
The Texas Republican Party believes in UFOs but not in trans people
What are you willing to believe ?In making trans people more visible, the Republicans intend to label us as ‘fake’ and force us into the closet. This is a Republican cover-up.
The Texas GOP platform is riveting(ly bad) political reading
I could not tear myself away from it. The Texas GOP’s “Temporary Platform and Resolutions” packs in a huge amount of religious superiority, prejudice, and self-contradiction.
January 6 — and transphobia — make some people feel empowered
They enjoy the illusion that they’re the deciders. Post-2020 Trump supporters believe they have the power to decide how others already voted—and, if they don’t get their way, they’ll force it.
Why the Republicans chose Mike Johnson
He’s been made House Speaker because he’s serving their goals. Their goal is patriarchy, white Christian nationalism, and unfettered environmental destruction. They will make elections obsolete if they can.
The biggest political donation in U.S. history is funding anti-trans laws
Anti-trans strategy isn’t invented by ‘concerned parents.’ It’s paid for. Laws against gender-affirming care aren’t the result of a concerned parent movement. They’re a well-funded political strategy.
