I need to GET OUT of Florida.

I am desperately trying to get out ahead of whats to come. I know some understand the severity of the situation but some don’t. There are TWO major REPUBLICAN presidential canidates (Desantis and Trump) that are running for election. Their supporters are largely the same base with some differentiation. They have been radicalized for the past 2-3 years. They also believe that the election was stolen. They are ANGRY and think they deserve vengeance. Things are going to get bad in the US, most importantly the LGBTQIA+ community. The hate train towards the trans community has already started.

IT IS NOT SAFE TO BE TRANSGENDER IN A RED STATE.

I’m not exaggerating the same audacity they had to storm the capital the same audacity they will have to harm transgender folks just trying to exist. The smear campaign started last year. Calling us gr00mers. Now it’s a narrative. To the point we have to be on the defensive. Nothing about this is right. That is why I’m begging. I have to be out of Florida before the midterm elections. PLEASE. I need to reach an LGBTQ inclusive safe haven. I put alot of research and concluded Pennsylvania will be the safest place for me to live FREE and just…exist

I am happy to announce I received $20 in donations. I’m extremely grateful . One step closer to my goal.

If 1995 people can donate just $4

If 4000 people can donate $2

I can leave before it’s too late. Thank you for reading this long

We need everyone's help right now to protect the rainforest and Indigenous People

The Amazon Rainforest is under a massive threat. I know you've heard this a million times, but this is different. There is a piece of legislation that will decimate the rights of Indigenous people of Brazil, who have been protecting the rainforest. It's unfathomably bad. It has majority support. And they're voting tomorrow. As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."

The thing you can do—and I know this sounds overly simple—is sign this petition—and tell your friends to do the same: SIGN HERE.

As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."

Again, this bill has majority support. You may be wondering, why will a petition signed by people who don't live in Brazil make any difference? Because it will give those opposing it political air cover. It will show the world is with them.

But we need a LOT of signatures.

Please do this simple act and spread the word.

Did you know that after they switched to blind auditions, major symphony orchestras hired women between 30% to 55% more? Before bringing in “blind auditions” with a screen to conceal the the candidate, women in the top 5 major orchestras made up less than 5% of the musicians performing.

[shwetanarayan-deactivated202504]

so I believe it was actually more complicated than that, in interesting ways. Because at first, when they did blind auditions, they were STILL hiring more men.

…Then they put down a carpet, so that high heels didn’t clack on the floor,  and BOOM women were suddenly getting hired.

The testers didn’t even know that’s what they were picking up on, which just goes to show how tiny of a cue it takes for misogyny to kick in.

[isaacsapphire]

The case of blind auditions for orchestras and how it dramatically changed the gender makeup of orchestras is a very illuminating example of gender bias, and an interesting possible way of countering it.

[small-witch-big-hat]

You can be sexist without knowing it. You can be racist without knowing it. This is not a moral failing; it is a moral imperative to remember that you are fallible, and take steps to limit the damage your squishy ape brain’s foibles can cause.

So I've seen this circling in both TERF circles and in trans circles...

"Stop saying this is a genocide against trans people, that's disrespectful to Jewish people!"

First, it is perfectly accurate to call something a genocide when politicians are openly saying at rallies "transgenderism must be eliminated". That is calling for genocide!!

Second, there is more than one way to commit genocide; it doesn't just mean "forcing them to wear symbols, rounding them up and murdering them in camps". Genocide includes inflicting great harm to a group of people with the intent of erasing them from existence. Many different groups of people have had genocide committed against them, including the indigenous people of the Americas.

Denying trans people the right to transition, making it illegal to talk about trans people in school, forcibly detransitioning trans people, forcing them to live in the closet, forcing them to be sterilized in order to transition, labeling "living with a trans person" as child abuse so you can take away their children, and making it illegal to openly identify as trans, are all acts of genocide. They are all designed to destroy trans people.

[spacelazarwolf]

te/rfs will whine that calling the trans genocide a genocide is “disrespectful to jewish people!!!!!!!!!!” and then call traits that many jewish cis women have, like larger noses or stronger eyebrows, “male traits.” like don’t pretend y’all care abt us as if half of ur rhetoric isn’t recycled antisemitism.

[pissditching]

calling what is happening to trans people in the south an attempt at genocide: correct and ok. it's going to get worse if we don't fight back now

comparing it to the holocaust: not ok and also i'm fucking blocking you.

no genocide is the same. not every genocide mirrors the holocaust. using the deaths of jews, lgbt people, disabled people, and poc during the holocaust as your "gotcha" card every time our rights are in danger today proves you know nothing about the history you're talking about.

You are not superior to the person who is nonverbal. You are not superior to the person who needs a carer. You are not superior to the person who wears diapers. You are not superior to the person who can't manage a job or an education. You are not superior to the person who is intellectually and/or cognitively disabled. You are not superior to the people in psych wards and group homes. You are not superior to the person in the wheelchair. You are not superior to the person on disability benefits. You are not inherently superior to any of these people just by virtue of being more capable in comparison. Leave your ableism at the door or don't enter

Since posts can run for a full week I wanted to see how this spreads

[maximumsunshine]

For it to spread, it needs reblogged. Reblog for science yall! Let's help OP!

For the record, this is not just shitty for anyone who needs wheels to get around.

This would be HELL for my cane.

I don't use forearm crutches, but I suspect it would also be hell for that type of mobility device.

Same for walkers.

Same for anyone with limited vision.

Almost every single instance of hostile architecture meant to gentrify a place or keep out "undesirables" ends up hurting disabled folks too.

And that's intentional. Because disabled folks absolutely fall under the "needs extra time/care", unless the companies can get away with it

Wtf is the problem with skateboards to begin with

[lesbiansandgayssupporttheminers]

Skateboards let people have fun outside without spending money (except occasionally on upgrading the board). Oh, and some people just hate teens congregating for any reason.

[theconcealedweapon]

Adults complain that "kids never go outside nowadays", meanwhile the reason is because adults would harass them whenever they do.
