Plain Simple Natalie 🏳️⚧️♀️✡️🐱👩🏻💻🖖🏻👋🏻
I'm just Nat. I'm everyone's favorite middle-aged, baby trans, nerdy liberal loudmouth. No, I'm the OTHER trans Natalie from Maryland. HRT 08/21/24. She/her.
- Big tech constantly reinventing public transit is getting very old
- I disagree with this. I think it does matter whether people believe that trans women are women and trans men are men. It's not an abstract philosophical question. It's a basic acknowledgement that trans people are real. Why would people accommodate us if they think we are not real?
- Like what kind of question is this? It literally *does not matter* whether or not people believe trans women are *actually* women/trans men are *actually* men. None of that matters. That's a philosophical question, completely irrelevant to whether the law should make accommodations for trans people.
- A truly Herculean effort to avoid pronouns here
- Needless to say, this is ridiculous.
- Find someone who loves you as much as an introvert loves cancelling plans
- "This is a politically unpopular argument. We should just allow it. Who cares about sports anyway?” Did you not read what I wrote? This isn't actually about sports at all. It's about whether it's acceptable to discriminate against us because we are trans. It's about whether we are women.
- I appreciate defenses like this but my argument is much simpler: If trans women are women, then we should have the same rights as other women. We shouldn't be discriminated against because of how we were born.
- It's difficult to get a woman to understand gender identity when her bigotry depends on her not understanding if.
- None of these MAGA ghouls deserve a moment of peace ever again chicago.suntimes.com/politics/202...
- I'm late to this joke but has someone checked if the US Navy recently increased its insurance coverage?
- Another Navy jet falls into sea, marking fourth major mishap in months wapo.st/4dlyTda
- This sounds like a job for @ifbookspod.bsky.social!
- Trump found the one basic economic policy lever that Congress left unprotected and is jerking it up and down like the petulant toddler he is.
- Crypto is just an MLM for incels
- Jews started saying "next year in Jerusalem" during the Passover seder centuries prior to the advent of modern Zionism.
- If your response to someone suffering due to bigotry is to say "you deserve it," then you have more in common with the bigots than you might think.
- Star Wars is science fiction and is superior to Star Trek
- EVEN CONSIDERING THIS SHOULD BE AN IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE
- It's about fucking time!
- BREAKING: Federal judge in Vermont orders that Rumeysa Ozturk be released from detention "immediately" and on her own recognizance with no travel restrictions. More to come at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com
- Happy Friday to everyone except my ingrown toenail
- The more I think about it, the more it makes sense to me that the reason why Trump won is that Americans are very very stupid
- Fine, we'll start our OWN army for trans people With blackjack and hookers And unbridled rage
- Be wary of talking shit about trans people on Bluesky We run this place with wits of steel
- I'm feeling good today! Of course, a storm is supposed to move in this afternoon, so I am bracing for impact...
- It's natural that we think a lot about whether we "pass" as our affirmed gender with others. But obsessing over it is not healthy, nor is being excessively fatalistic about it. We should try instead to focus on making ourselves happy with how we look and feel.
- PSA: Donate to your local Planned Parenthood if you can. They do such important work for the community and many of them are struggling for funding. www.plannedparenthood.org
