Going to a support-trans-youth rally tomorrow to combat this Parental Rights nonsense, trying to figure out a sign. I have two leading contenders.

Calling all Canadian activists! Trans kids in Canada are under unprecedented attacks by our Conservative politicians and by gender fascists! There is a planned “Million Child March” on September 20th being planned in several cities *in support of* taking away trans kids rights. We need to stop this from happening. Please share this bulletin far and wide and connect with your local activists to plan counter rallies! For the safety of organizers please do not include our names in screenshots or shares of this information. Thank you. 💖

Parenting advice needed : FYI You don't have to be a parent to give me advice.

So, here it is.

It's time for seasonal vaccines. We need Flu vaccine, and COVID boosters and pneumonia vaccine. The oldest teen is resisting this time around because of the way they react to the COVID vaccine is very intense, but only lasts no more than 24-48 hrs (fever of 101 degrees F, chills, body pain) . I forced them into it every time because of how vital it is and they are high risk and have to go to in person school which has no protection in place for COVID or flu. I'm too poor to pay them as an incentive. Do you think posting an Amazon wishlist list or a PayPal for them and asking the public to help me out with incentivizing their vaccines is a good idea? (I would close the fundraiser when their incentive has been given, I was thinking $20 seems fair) .

I would also have to do the same thing for the other 2 siblings even though they don't feel sick from the vaccines, they just are scared of needles and would be ticked off that they're older sibling got a gift and they didn't. So I'd need $60 total on PayPal ($20 for each child) or an Amazon toy for each kid.

Are there any other better ideas? What should we do?

In case anybody is on-board with rewarding (incentivizing) the teens for their seasonal vaccines

here's a link to the 15 year old's Amazon wishlist:

And a link to the 13 year old's wish list:

Tip: if you’re heading to the #SaskatchewanLegislature to protest the unconstitutional forced outing of #TransKids, pink and blue Bristol board and a white poster board can be quickly transformed into a #Trans flag with a box cutter and some glue!

The newest member of kiddo's friend group is transmasc. His chosen new first name, when paired with his last name, is the same as a Major League Baseball player who was briefly a star in the late 80's/early 90's.

I mentioned this to my kid, who mentioned this to him, and the kid was *delighted.*

Enter me and my find-anything-online skills and we have now procured this kid a Starting Lineup brand action figure of the player, and some baseball cards.

We have a bit of time before his birthday and plan to put together an entire package of Your Baseball Namesake goodies for his upcoming birthday.

It's good to be able to use internet nerd powers for good purposes.

We just met our kids' teachers at their new school tonight and our #enby 4th grader's teacher asked them to help her decide which pride flag to hang up. She wanted to make sure the kiddo felt included.

I legit started sobbing.

To those who say schools should stick to teaching “the basics”: There is nothing more basic than gender identity. Kids struggling with their identity and without support at home won’t be well equipped to learn reading, writing and arithmetic. And they are at greater risk of harm. #2SLGBTQIA #lgbtq #transkids https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-lgbtq-pronouns-schools-1.6950029

By saying “schools should leave LGBTQ issues to parents,” Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is telling trans kids they don't have the right to be their true selves, that they need to ask permission. Not every household is a supportive household, and abandoning those kids puts them at greater risk of harm. We know that is true. Anybody who chooses not to see that or to ignore it is complicit. #2SLGBTQIA #LGBTQ #transkids https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-lgbtq-pronouns-schools-1.6950029

Federal appeals court rules Kentucky can force trans kids to detransition. The chief judge said just because some officials disagree with the ban doesn't mean it shouldn't take effect.

"Every way was wrong" is about my experience as a closeted trans girl, how things felt "off" early on even though I didn't have the language to describe it. This is one of the darker ones.

„Wie könnt ihr euch denn sicher sein?“

Diese Frage habe ich mal wieder in Bezug auf unsere trans Tochter bekommen.

Kann ich nicht, denn ich bin nicht sie. Ich kann nur meinem Kind vertrauen.
Aber wenn ich sehe, das mein Kind, das Menschen Masse hasst, bei krach schnell überfordert ist und nur ungern viel läuft,

The #GOP, and the right, took their lessons spreading Islamophobia and are weaponizing their tactics towards #dragQueens and #transKids. #USPol

One thing that their earlier tactics didn't have were open militants, Qanon cults and total disregard to bad press.

This is what happens when the mainstream press placates hate, like the Tea Party, as they did during the Islamophobia phase of the GOP's war on truth.

There's a wealth of research showing that puberty blockers to be safe and effective. They are used “off-label”, which means they are used outside their licenced use.

Other "off-label" medication includes the contraceptive pill, which is a hormonal treatment used to treat acne.

Picture of a packet of pills. Text: Puberty blockers are not experimental, there’s a wealth of research showing them to be safe and effective. They are used “off-label”, which means they are used outside their licenced use. Children are commonly prescribed “off-label” medication. Other medicines prescribed “off-label” include the contraceptive pill, which is used to treat acne.

A New Bill Could Legalize #Kidnapping #Transgender Kids by Their Parents

A newly introduced bill Friday by #Republican state Senator #ClayYarborough in #Florida could let a parent kidnap their children and bring them across state lines if the parent believes that the child is receiving #GenderAffirmingHealthcare—or even if the child is simply "at risk" of getting that care.
