The poor woman that’s going to be voicing vriska needs to be preemptively put into the witness protection program
isnt it easier to just move to a blue state instead of moving countries? like theres plenty safe democratic run states in the usa...
i say this with love in my heart.
you need to read the news more, anon.
The (formerly) safest place in the US for trans people, Washington DC, is currently experiencing a military occupation and literally hundreds of federal agents and military on the streets disappearing anyone who “appears (or is)” homeless”, anyone undocumented (or Black/brown and in the wrong place/time), fucking smoking weed/cigs in visible spaces (weed is legal in dc, but federally not), and committing police brutality against people for small “crimes” or manufacturing crimes to arrest known Black/Brown activists.
DC went from one of the safest places in the US to really showing the fact it’s an internal colony of the US not truly subject to any “protections” when a fascist government decides shit is over.
A blue state won’t save you. If you can afford to get out now or have the connections to get out via cf or any other method, do it. If you want to stay and fight because this is your home, do it. But whatever you do you better decide fast because you ARE running out of time.
It's time to start again
90% of what people assume to be someone being "ignorant" about trans women is active malice. It's unbelievably condescending to get all shocked about how "I can't believe people would be that ignorant :(" when someone is talking about active malice that serves a specific social function.
Ignorance is when you don't know things. Treating us as predatory men is not a product of not spending enough time around trans women in order to be educated.
it's convenient to frame it this way though because then the malicious behavior becomes our fault for not educating / including the malicious person enough, and us responding in a normal way to obvious malice can be framed as a touchy self-fulfilling overreaction
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!
Do they know. Do they know that they’re predators. Do they even know.
and I say again any women's shelter that turns away trans women and mothers of boys is fraudulent and deserves to be cleared out for an agency actually willing to do the work

To put it bluntly, the only way to end homelessness is to house people or kill them.
That's it. Those are your options. Homelessness doesn't go away based on "crime crackdowns." You will imprison the unhoused, and when they are free, they will be unhoused again. Or they will die in prison.
When you burn encampments or force people out without their stuff, they remain unhoused or freeze to death.
After working with the unhoused, it's become abundantly clear that those who don't want to support them instead want them dead.
There is blood on the hands of every government and organization that controls the homeless population with force instead of compassion.
A couple of years ago we were all terribly concerned about the fact that a lot of American high schools are assigning such crushing homework loads that some kids literally don't have enough time to eat or sleep (and all this in spite of the fact that there's no good evidence that assigning homework actually improves academic outcomes at the pre-university level), but now we're hearing stories about those same schools struggling to stop kids from using ChatGPT to write their essays and suddenly It's The Children Who Are Wrong. Like, do you think maybe there's a certain level of cause and effect in play here?
"Okay, but what if both are bad" see, I don't think any framing that implicitly puts the school administration that thinks it's reasonable to assign thirty hours of homework per week and the student who has to choose between writing an essay the old-fashioned way and getting more than two hours of sleep tonight on equal ethical footing is productive.
going to break into the piracy discourse and argue that it isn't ethical to buy a AAA video game. you shouldn't give them your money. it's only ethical to play if you pirate it.

Please help rescue mentally ill transfem from becoming homeless
Hey all, I’m here posting this on behalf of a friend who, for the better part of this year, has been chronically unemployed, displaced and kicked out of one living situation after another.
She finally has a job and is set to finally start earning an income again, and I’ve been able to help her with finding a room to rent for the next couple of months until the housing she’s actually applied to opens up. But she only has until Tuesday (August 12, 2025) before she’s once again forced out of the place she’s currently staying
Please, if you can, help my friend get back on her feet. Any amount you can spare towards helping her cover her rent and utilities would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
