Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced a series of actions yesterday that could essentially ban gender-affirming care for youth all over the country. The most significant move is a proposed rule that says hospitals providing this care cannot receive any Medicare or Medicaid funding. (x)

hey y'all this is open to public comment for the next 54 days (from 12/25/25). If you have a minute, go make some noise.

IF YOU SEE ANY PAINTING BY "EMILE CORSI" ON HERE, DO NOT REBLOG IT THINKING IT'S REAL AND FROM THE 1800s. IT IS AI-GENERATED AND EMILE CORSI IS NOT A HISTORICAL FIGURE

examples:

And if you love the vibes and wish you could find something similar painted by a real person, let me introduce you to John William Waterhouse, on whose work the AI was definitely trained:

Please don't call yourself a tranny you know that word isn't meant for you

Well who is it meant for, then? The cross-dressers? The kinksters? The ones who don't pass? The sex workers? The "ugly" ones?

Maybe it's for the rude ones, or the "loud" ones, or the ones who never came "out", past their middle-aged years and slipping on nice stockings under their khaki trousers, putting on a bit of blush in the bathroom mirror and then quickly washing it off again before anyone can see?

Maybe it's for the "traps", the beautiful ones who keep it secret and don't tell you until after the third date, when you can stab them to death for the crime of being human and plead "Gay Panic" at the trial to get off scot-free?

If we're going to call people "tranny", but not the ones like me, then who exactly are you thinking of?

If anyone is going to be called a "tranny" then I'm sticking with them, and I'd sure as hell rather be on our side than yours

"🥪" is shorthand for "🍞🧀🍅🥬🍞"

love when a mother asks if they have ever done anything to hurt you. ma'am, you will literally never be ready to have this conversation

disabled people are often in permacrisis

bebsi-cola

there's never enough money each month. there's always an unexpected illness. new symptoms pop up or old symptoms flare up. meds have to be managed always and refilled constantly and any refill has the opportunity to go wrong. any regular care has the opportunity to go wrong. any mistake can send your health spiralling. it's always "i just need to get through this bad patch" but as soon as one ends another begins. another crisis begins in the middle of the last crisis. managing one thing leaves another thing to be neglected until that becomes a major issue and has to be managed asap and the cycle starts anew over and over and over

alsoooo a big, big, big digital security lesson that you absolutely have to understand while making recommendations is that if your protocol is too complicated or inaccessible, even if it's somehow perfectly invulnerable, then people will start taking shortcuts that are way fucking worse.

ok, proton handed payment info over to swiss authorities, who then helped the fbi. if you start indiscriminately fearmongering about all proton services because of it (and implying that they can send more info than they have) then what are people switching to? people have to use email. not everyone is going to switch to tuta mail or whatever. but even if they did, they have paid plans too, which would likely be susceptible to the same issue. and if they decide, fuck it, there's no point, i'll just go back to using gmail instead, that puts everyone at way more risk than continuing to use protonmail.

it's also fine and good to say that people shouldn't be putting incriminating stuff in any emails. but we don't know that the fbi tracked them down through incriminating emails. they knew somehow that the account was associated with the stop cop city protestors, which could've very well been because their handle was stopcopcity at proton dot me or something. (i don't know if that was the case!) and then the payment information associated with that account was used to track someone down.

like the whole idea is that we have to break these cases down piece by piece and then come up with easily actionable recommendations that protect most people like 80-90% of the way, because that alone will make it much much harder for others to compromise them. and then there are various additional levels of precautions you can take based on the sensitivity & admin level of what you're working on. like. that's what digital security for orgs is.

and this is kind of a tangent but. you especially need to be prioritizing a risk mitigation approach because flock & ring cameras exist lmao. regardless of whether you use any consumer technologies at all, if you live in the US, these things are tagging your license plate & other visual attributes of your car. using facial recognition on drivers & passengers & pedestrians. aggregating all that data to track your movement like on a map. what are you going to do? not live in a city? not drive a car? not leave your house?

no. you have to be aware of what these security risks are and how to manage them depending on what actions you're taking.

[ID 1: a tweet by miauravilhas with an image of a cat laying on its back with all four legs up, on the ground right next to a wet floor sign. The tweet, translated from Portuguese, reads "Poor thing, he slipped because he can't read."

ID 2: same image but the graphic of the person falling on the wet floor sign has been replaced with the image of the cat on its back. End ID.]

Nonbinary people are so cool I wish our rights were taken seriously haha

stillhereandstillqueer

Genuinely though it is so frustrating that nonbinary rights and exorsexism are not treated seriously at all, even from within the queer community. It sucks that there's not even an option for an X gender marker in so many countries, including in more progressive queer-friendly ones. It sucks that if enben want to get gender affirming care that we're advised to lie about our gender (or lack thereof) in favour of a more binary trans identity lest we jump through a million extra hoops on top of the million already in place for binary trans people to prove we're serious in order to get the care we want/need. It sucks that in most cases we're still forced into some kind of binary and I wish that the issues we deal with were acknowledged more.
