Legislatures Passed 550 Anti-Trans Bills So Far This Year – Mother Jones

Follow me if you like that stuff. I’ll likely follow back.
This particular RHPS crowd was way queer and way lit, with folks in drag posing down the aisles and doing Rockettes kick lines in the balcony. Plus there was the added fun of freaking the mundanes waiting to get into the TGIFriday's next door. And presiding over it all was Tim Curry's masterful smirk as he sashayed into genderfunk history. :heart_transgender: (2/2)

Today's stop on my Pride Month musical memory tour: when I was in college in Boston in the late 1970s, I got indoctrinated into the wonders of the Rocky Horror Picture Show via its long-running Saturday midnight showing - with excellent live Cast - at the then-beloved Exeter Street Theater in the Back Bay. Ahhh, the memories! (1/2)

"Hundreds of anti-transgender bills proposed in state legislatures are sold as measures to protect minors—such as Idaho’s Vulnerable Child Protection Act and Montana’s Youth Health Protection Act—but advocacy groups and doctors warn that the effect is exactly the opposite. So far this year, legislators in nearly every state have introduced over 550 anti-transgender bills—more than in the past eight years combined. ..."

"A federal judge in Florida told politicians and backers of a new law rolling back gender-affirming care in the state to “put up” facts or “shut up.”
In a preliminary injunction filed from Tallahassee on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle blocked a state law that would that prohibit the prescription of puberty-blocking and other hormone-related therapies for minors from applying to three of seven minors included in the filed case."

It appears I have made it to my Fishing For Compliments in Public Trans Era.
Don’t know if this is a thing, but if not I just made it one.
Went into Panda Express to assert my dominance over the miscreant girl who calmed me “Sir” a week or so ago, when I was feeling fragile, consequently triggering 3 hours of crying…
Instead I was helped by an adorable He/They who complimented my nails and made everything better.
Seriously though, why don't more therapists and psychiatrists that work with trans patients not start with a trauma-informed approach or refer their trans clients to trauma therapy?
I know @siege has discussed gender dysphoria as a PTSD response specifically, but the whole experience, from egg-cracking to living as yourself is shaped by the complex trauma most of us experience growing up in a world hostile to trans existence.
Why is it every time I hear a professional describe trauma (e.g. symptoms, experiences, care) that I realize they are literally just describing what every trans person I know lives with? 😅
Like, I was just listening to a webinar where they describe how trauma makes it hard to remember things in a linear fashion and we might make connections between things that happened at different moments and times because it all happens at once for us...wait, isn't that just Queer Temporality? 😅

Federal court judge rules:
"Dissuading a person from conforming to the person’s gender identity rather than to the person’s natal sex is not a legitimate state interest. The medical defendants have acknowledged this."
The ruling is 44 pages, but is worth the read. There are a lot of talking points.

Signed up for Will Bunch's newsletter after reading his takes on RFK Jr's campaign & Nicki Haley's comments re: #trans women athletes.
"Nikki Haley held a 90-minute town hall on CNN that the New York Times described as 'mild,' apparently because she was willing to say that Vladimir Putin invading Ukraine or praising North Korea’s dictator Kim Jong-Un are actually bad things.
"There’s a lot of words I could use for ratcheting up hatred toward our #LGBTQ youth, but 'mild' is not one of them."

I often woke up and lay there in the dark. Usually, this was about a quarter to four. "I'm the wrong person," I thought. "I'm living the wrong life in the wrong body."
To which, I would respond:
"You're a maniac, an idiot! You have a life–a lot of other people dream about a life–so full of blessings that your heart hurts!"
To which, I would respond:
"I know, still."

It's hard to be happy about this ruling because it's far too narrow, temporary, and likely to get overturned by an activist judge. It is a minor step in the right direction for #trans rights in FL, and a rebuke of the fascist governor, DeSatan.

I'm thinking about starting to take estrogen once I've finished my move and. idk. it sounds kinda scary. but it sounds possible to stop after a set amount of time before breasts grow in fully. but still it's like. hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
is this really what I want? I don't know. I really don't know but I do know I dislike myself, and many parts of myself, and I just don't associate with masculinity at all honestly anymore... i know it's not what you like and whatnot but it's literally like, I look at myself in the mirror and I don't like it. I just... idk. I dk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I am not donkey kong)

Need some assistance from other trans femmes or knowledgeable parties about breast feeding. Am not able to take domperidone because of an interaction with my psych meds. So I’ve been told grab a pump, and take 3000-4000mg of fenugreek a day.
For the record I’m taking 6mg oral estrogen and 300mg micronized progesterone daily. The drug that has the interaction is my seroquel which I use to manage anxiety.
Any babes been through this and have suggestions, tips, guides, supplies, or anything else that might help? Really appreciate it. Thanks.

Welcome to #TransTuesday! It’s Pride month, so that means we’re gonna talk about Target, and Dylan Mulvaney/Bud Light, and the Los Angeles Dodgers, and: RAINBOW CAPITALISM.
If you’re unsure exactly what Rainbow Capitalism is, what it basically amounts to is corporations posting rainbow logos and selling queer merch while otherwise stabbing us in the back.

Jargon alert: When a judge "enjoins" a law, that "injunction" prevents the state from enforcing while the case is underway.
This means that the judge has found that the claimants are likely to ultimately succeed on the merits of their case and should be protected from further harm.
This is a very good sign. Medical care can continue for #trans youth in #Florida. Coupled with the judge's very strong statement on injunction, it signals a positive final decision.
BIG WIN for #trans youth! U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle has enjoined Florida's ban on youth affirming care. A choice quote from his decision:
"The statute and the rules were an exercise in politics, not good medicine."
The ACLU's case challenging #Indiana's ban on youth affirming care goes to court on June 14.
"But in response to the threats to your stores, you did something that we in the community cannot do. You see, we can’t simply pull our identities and our lives off the shelves. We can’t just take the rainbow flags down, hoping these monsters leave us alone.
In fact, we know they won’t….
Bullies are the same the world round, and they must be dealt with the same.
You cannot give them what they want, because they will only come back, demanding more."
George Takei tells Target,
"Welcome to our lives.
LGBTQ+ people are facing attacks and threats as never before. Our identities are being erased from classrooms, our gatherings and festivals are being targeted by armed militias, and our children are being singled out and denied life saving, gender affirming medical care."

Alright, so here's the GoFundMe link for my friend's escape from her abusive situation at home.
None of this money is for me, excepting repaying things I might need to advance her for now. All of it is going to Yuzu's Life Starting Fund, as she's going to need clothes, and housewares, and toiletries, and you name it. So anything you can spare to help her out will be a great boon.
Oxfam Pride advert branded ‘hateful’ by anti-trans activists for making ‘terfs’ look like terrible people | indy100
"A generation and a half ago, the ideological forefathers of these same people were telling America that dangerous blacks were luring innocent young white children into lives of sex and depravity, with jazz music and the innate sexuality of Black men.
Just twenty years ago these same people were telling the world that gay marriage would lead to people marrying ducks and goats.
They always fight this battle, because it’s all they’ve got."
"To follow the rhetoric of anti-trans leaders like Ron DeSantis and right-wing propaganda outlets like Fox News, the push for transgender acceptance is corrupting the souls of the innocent, brainwashing innocent kids through rainbow t-shirts at Target and drag show clips on TikTok."
Oliver Willis writes that the current war of the right on trans people is a new iteration of an old war against any group the right finds convenient to demonize at the moment.
He writes,

"When the Guardian reported concerns raised by an anonymous former EHRC employee about its stance on race, their name was leaked to the Guido Fawkes website. Under questioning from a parliamentary committee, the EHRC wrongly suggested the Guardian was the source of the leak to the rightwing blog."
Is this why the Guardian has been taking an obvious step back from their usual transphobic reporting? It's gone from full-on to peep.

“Hey Lucía! What’s that you are working on?”
“Oh, this? It’s just the *Application to Change the Name and/or Sex on a Record of Live Birth to Support Gender Identity*. Thought I’d work on it while I’m painting my nails, between coats…”
“Well jeez, what’s been holding you back?”

▫️ " Stripped of our labels, most people turn out to be easy to like. (Irshad) Manji argues this might be the best way out of our polarised age – not to look for purities in others, but pluralities. We are all more than one thing"
▫️ "In these days of algorithmic overlords, getting to meet people whose politics, economics, experiences or general demographics don’t neatly match your own feels as liberating as it is rare"
▫️ "... the first of many open conversations. The sort I suspect most people crave"

It is sometimes really interesting to observe how long a thread goes on and what impact it has.
The thread about Quantum Electron Dynamics (QED) / Quantum Physics seems not to ready to die ... or sleep.
But then again, I am happy I got a chance to refresh a lot of the stuff that I read/did over the years in order try to explain some of the beauty of the quantum realm.
But, it sometimes creates weird thoughts and sentences what with chatting in another thread about trans issues, coming out of a lovely person, German politics, ... Having to correct "... you know the trans realm is fascinating. It is so far away from our macro Universe. What is most important is really to understand that words can mean something different for the quantum trans realm than for the cis macro universe... Look at this photon: always transitioning through spacetime at the same pace..." ... Wowowowowow... waitaminit - waitaminit...
I am looking for a new instance to move to, preferably octodon.social but need an invite. I rarely use this account so I’d would like to go somewhere I will be more active.
If anyone has other ideas for general *anti-everything bad* instances that are currently open or if I can get an invite to octodon.social please lmk!

same goes with misgendering lol, you misgender me once ever and the relationship is like never the same. I don't really get misgendered offline unless I'm out (people usually assume she/her): and when I do it's very rarely deliberately or when friends have just not seen me as a full woman so it accidentally slips out, and I just can't accept even the latter, even if it's accompanied by "trying". Sorry, but no
Tbh, I used to waste my time doing this! And you know what I thought back when I did that? That nobody was out there who was better, and so I had to be patient like that and always do that! It wasn't until I said fuck it that I actually had room in my life to meet people who were better. Took a bit but, so worth it

There are plenty of people who know enough about trans people where I'm just not going to waste my time walking someone through the basics in friendship after friendship, or much less even an acquaintance or something. People can either be with the program or they're not ready to be in my life and they need to do their own research on how to interact with trans people
