It was never about protecting kids.

Yesterday in Utah, Senator Escamilla called Republicans bluff by making them vote on banning teenage breast implants in an anti-trans healthcare ban.

All Republicans voted against it.

Utah Republicans Exclude Cis Teen Breast Implants From Trans Care Ban

In current legislative fights over gender affirming care, it is clear that Republicans only intend to target transgender people. This amendment vote proves it.

This is bad.

A new anti-trans bill in West Virginia would ban "transgender exposure to minors" as "obscene matter."

It would add to a law with a 5 year prison term, and to ALL laws around minors in WV.

It must not pass.

New WV Obscenity Bill Would Jail People For "Transgender Exposure" To Minors

This anti-trans bill goes a step further than anti-drag bills and outright bans minors from being "exposed" to transgender people.

thinking about middle aged gay love is like we have a future and we have time lycaonswolves replied: my mother divorced my father when i was 7. it wasn't because she was gay, though she did discover this later (another reminder that it's okay to find out who you are at 40, at 50, etc, and also for who you are to change) but because she had thought he was the great love of her life and he turned out to be a shitty person my mother married my ma when i was 11. i think they do have a great love. i think they love each other the way you can when you're middle aged -- having seen the world, being able to see each other's flaws, knowing themselves. they see each other in full, and they love each other and the world for it.
they dance on the street to buskers (very embarrassing when you're twelve; very cute when you look back on it as an adult). i shit you not -- they pass me their purses and dance on the sidewalk, laughing. i thought was something that only happened in movies. my ma makes my mother eggs every morning because my mother can't cook for shit. my mother presses my ma's work blazers for her because my ma still can't figure out how to work the new iron. when it was warm, high-school me would wake up on the weekends and wander downstairs to find them sitting in the backyard in the sun, drinking coffee together and splitting the newspaper in a surgical, exact process since they'd worked out who wanted which sections years ago.
my mother is happier than she's ever been. my ma, too. there is a future out there for every gay person who's always known they're gay., like my ma, and for everyone who figures it out later, like my mother there's time. they're growing old together. i cannot express to you how much they are leading happy lives, loving each other, with a huge family surrounding them. i cannot express to you how much they have this beautiful future that they are living and willive i want you to know, if you don't have any older gays in your life: they're out there. and they're living these full, happy lives. sometimes i look to my moms and i think i want a life like yours. and looking at them makes me believe i will get it

#ThisWeekInFacsism returns for a roundup of antifascist action and analysis!

As far-Right and GOP attacks on the #LGBTQ community continue - new white supremacist and neo-fascist groups are forming out of the chaos of the post-J6 terrain.

We do a deep dive on these new groups - some of which are rejecting explicit calls for racial supremacy and embracing an authoritarian politics centered around religion - while others return to embracing the swastika - and some even are recuperating anarchist calls for 'mutual aid!'

Includes a roundup of recent antifascist resistance and much more!

This Week in Fascism #133: Communities Continue to Mobilize Against Anti-LGBTQ Attacks as New Fascist Formations Emerge

Welcome fellow antifascists! Since our last column, much has happened. After Elon Musk took over Twitter and quickly moved to align with the far-Right by removing anarchist and antifascist...

A terrifying bill was just dropped in the late night hours in Oklahoma that would medically detransition all trans people up to age 26.

I called this would happen months ago - states are moving towards outright elimination.

#UK folks, there's a petition to keep protection of transgender people in the equality act by not amending it.

It's pretty scary being #trans in this country at the moment, and we could use your help to protect our rights. #Queer folks and #lgbtq friends and allies, please support.

Feel free to share broadly/openly with others. Steal, boost, repost your own. Let's get 100k signatures, please.

Howdy! Here's a brief #introduction repost since I just moved to scholar.social. I am a Black, queer and trans social worker and PhD student at Dalhousie University (Halifax, NS), so sciences.social seemed like a good fit. My research is about how anti-Black homophobia serves to limit access to health and social service care for Black gbtq+MSM in Canada. More info about me here! 👉🏾 https://www.vincentmousseau.net

Hello et salut! I ditched the Zuckerverse a few years ago and I'm working on leaving Twitter too, but I'm still interested in the inspiration of an online art community! I found my way here with the help of some friends, including @ray. Pleased to be in a truly community owned space! #MastoArt #lgbtq

Last year I started to really get into more complex backgrounds. Especially urban areas, perspective and less "natural" sceneries were what I wanted to challenge myself at. So I drew my #OCs (as I always do) in their natural surroundings - a modern urban city filled with #graphicdesign puns and references!

I think I actually got some kind of coherent story out of it - completely unplanned!

Warm steamed buns to go - who would be able to resist? A short trip to the local Seven-Magic to get some snacks was definitely not on the To-Do list of CMYK-chan but alas. Some Vector brand Chips spontaneously landed in her grocery bags just like some pop-up gum and glyph shaped fruit gummies. Her girlfriend was in a snacking mood and who would CMYK-chan be if she would refuse her girlfriends secret weapon: her puppy eyes.
"Hurry up you slowpoke! We're gonna miss the train!" RGB-chan yelled, grabbing CMYK-chans hand. The metro to Kerning Road is about to depart, passing through Crop Square and Pixel Street. The sun is about to set, engulfing her girlfriend into a warm atmosphere as she sprints towards the closing doors.
Tapped out - that day way way too long for CMYK-chan. She sunk half asleep onto her girlfriend RGB-chans shoulder while riding the train back home. The sun is setting through the train window, shinining onto the skyline. Every day is just made better spending it with your partner. ❤️
