happy trans day of visibility🔥🔥🔥🔥

So uh…I know that today is Trans Day of Visibility and this website’s mods are pretty horrible to trans women but…

Over on Insta and TikTok, Mercury Stardust (also known as The Trans Handy Ma’am) has been trying to raise money for trans kids. Her account has been flagged by trolls and banned 11 times. Shes not giving up, but she could use some support. Please please go check out her accounts and consider donating to the 501c charity she’s supporting. Our trans siblings need us right now.

Link to her insta, since her tiktok is currently banned again: https://www.instagram.com/mercurystardusttopz?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

She does all types of helpful DIY videos for home repair and helps answer questions for renters. Please give her a follow. Send her a nice message. Please let our trans community members know we see them and love them—today and everyday.

On Easter weekend I re-watch Monty Python.

Funny what a little bit of Holocaust denialism will get you trending with.

Also, worth noting that calling it "Holocaust denialism," as Aye and Alejandra Carabello (and myself) have, is not hyperbole.

JK Rowling is denying that trans people were targetted by the Nazis, and promoting the tweets of known anti-trans activists screeching that any insistence that we were is "the LGBTQ+ lobby" revising history. That is, by a 2022 ruling on a case regarding similar tweets by the Regional Court of Cologne, (translation) "a denial of Nazi crimes."

She is, by German court precedent, quite literally engaging in an element of Holocaust denial.

In case anyone is unfamiliar with the Nazis' destruction of both gay and trans culture in Germany, Germany had a sympathetic gay and trans health clinic in the early 1900s. The Nazis destroyed it and burned literature studying homosexuality, gender noncomformity, and what we now understand to be transgenderness or transexuality. This took place only 3 months after Hitler came into power.

In addition to homosexuality, crossdressing was illegal under the Hitler regime even though trans people had (albeit limited) rights prior to his rise to power. And before anyone says it, the trans holocaust victims we talk about weren't misidentified crossdressers, drag artists, or gender-nonconforming people. One trans woman, Liddy Barcroff, died in a concentration camp for her "crossdressing" after telling arresting police “my sense of my sex is fully and completely that of a woman.” The queer community, all of us, suffered huge losses both in individuals and in education and understanding during the Holocaust. Denying any part of that is offensive and dangerous.

It's also important to add that the founder of that institute was Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, who was a gay Jew. This allowed Nazis to claim that Jews were promoting homosexuality to "destroy the family" and weaken the white race.

You know, pretty much exactly what Republicans are saying now, just in dogwhistles.

Touchscreens do not belong in cars

And gauges and dials should be gauges and dials, not screens

Door releases should have a direct mechanical link to a latch, not send an electronic signal to a servo

You should not have to have your phone alive to unlock your car

Most touchscreens have a temperature resistance of less than 40°C (104°F). They do not belong on cars, toasters, ovens and stoves, any kind of safety equipment, or any equipment that requires precision of operation to maintain safety. They do not belong anywhere near a working engine.

cars should neither explode nor drown people, ideally.

Goty

This was very lovely to wake up to. It's completely legit, in the replies people posted videos and pictures of the 'walk for El Vaquita', the fake protest to get El Vaquita desperately needed medical attention.

The comments in the tweet lead to celebration of a another Chilean comrade doggo named Negro Matapacos. And this is exactly the kind of education I want this month.

I love him. also

Hey y’all this is kind of important, I really hope this spreads, there is a man who is going to be killed on February 28th even when there is new evidence that there was a false testimony.

For those of you brave enough to make a phone call, here is the phone number of the Texan lawmakers: 866-233-2601

Move on has a recommended script to say when calling:

"I'm calling you as an elected official in Texas to urge you to publicly call on DA Greg Willis to delay the execution of Ivan Cantu on February 28. Recently, the DA's own office made a legal filing before the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals showing that the state's star witness falsely testified and the lead detective knew she was lying. 

"Even the jury foreman from Ivan's 2001 trial has spoken out to the press saying he doesn't believe due process was followed in Ivan's case given recent evidence that signals to the fact that Ivan may have been wrongfully convicted."

Everyone deserves a fair trial, but Ivan Cantu has had to spend 20 years in prison waiting for his shot at one. He has only days left to live—please take action now by calling Texas lawmakers before it's too late.

Thank you for taking a stand on this important issue. It is also particularly important that the Collin County DA hear from Texas constituents at this time. If you are a Texan, please share that information when you make your call.”

I have posted a link to the petition for those who want to sign it, and a phone number for those brave enough to call.

Please consider helping.

I hate this so much.

If you'd like to support musicians streaming rights and fair pay you should support United Musicians and Allied Workers (UMAW) who are actively working against Spotify and services unfair streaming policies.

This is a link to write a letter urging your state representatives to support UMAW & Rep. Tlaib's H.Con.Res. 102. Below is a link to their website with other ways to support them further!
