I don’t know if anyone else has pointed this out yet, or if you remember/already posted. But Nex Benedict died a year ago today. I’ve seen you post about it before when they actually died, but not very many people have been posting about it today that I’ve seen. Can we bring them up again? They’re already being forgotten!

The State department has changed LGBTQ to LGB.

If you claim to care about trans people now is a good time to show genuine ally ship.

chernobylwaters

And I mean being an ACTUAL ally.

I don't mean sexualizing us or watching trans porn.

I don't mean treating trans mascs like "uwu soft baby boy" and trans femmes as "yass queen girl boss".

I don't mean expecting praise for using the right pronouns and using incorrect ones when "they're a bad trans person".

I mean ACTUAL SUPPORT.

Donate to trans shelters or organizations. DON'T out us to people we aren't out to. Go to protests if you're able, FIGHT ALONGSIDE US. Don't bring us around people you know are transphobic or dangerous, the list goes on. The LGBTQ community is ALL of us not just some of us.

Trans people who are documented as trans on government documents are currently not able to get passports - whether or not they accept their passport being issued as their birth sex, any indication that you're trans on a document that can be accessed by the government is being used as reason to deny a passport.

This is incredibly alarming. Even agreeing to be labeled as your birth sex is not sufficient. They want to deny trans people the ability to leave the country. Any possible reason for this is horrifying.

We need to rally now. Protect the entire community, do not allow them to throw any of us under the bus. None of us will be spared, they're just coming for the most vulnerable people first, and soon enough the most vulnerable people will be YOU.

URGENT! Supporters needed to attend important and legally decisive court case for nonbinary people in London tomorrow morning (9:30am Tues 21st Jan)

Ryan Castellucci, who is challenging the UK government to follow its own rules and grant them a nonbinary gender recognition certificate, is in court tomorrow morning.

This is a huge case. Ryan has a really good case and good representation, and if Ryan wins then it would be a decisive and dramatic step in the direction of nonbinary rights in the UK.

Ryan is asking for supporters to attend tomorrow (Tuesday 21st Jan), at 9:30am. The location is Court 63 at The Royal Courts of Justice in Central London. (Search for CA-2024-000474 here.) Dress smartly, and behave quietly and respectfully.

If you can't attend, please consider reblogging this or sending it directly to anyone in London. (You should be able to watch a live stream here.) Please also consider donating to Ryan's crowdfunder.

Harvard's Secret Court: The Savage 1920 Purge of Campus Homosexuals

William Wright

In 2002, a researcher for The Harvard Crimson came across a restricted archive labeled Secret Court Files, 1920. The mystery he uncovered involved a tragic scandal in which Harvard University secretly put a dozen students on trial for homosexuality and then systematically and persistently tried to ruin their lives. In May of 1920, Cyril Wilcox, a freshman suspended from Harvard, was found sprawled dead on his bed, his room filled with gas--a suicide. The note he left behind revealed his secret life as part of a circle of (cut young) homosexual students. The resulting witch hunt and the lives it cost remains one of the most shameful episodes in the history of America's premiere university. Supported by legendary Harvard President Lawrence Lowell, Harvard conducted its investigation in secrecy. Several students committed suicide; others had their lives destroyed by an ongoing effort on the part of Harvard to destroy their reputations. Harvard's Secret Court is a deeply moving indictment of the human toll of intolerance and the horrors of injustice that can result when a powerful institution loses its balance.

WHY ARE YOU MARKED RED ON SHINIGAMI, WTF DID U DO

i cant even post moths anymore. because of woke

mossybogwitch

you might be marked red on shiningami eyes because of the moths actually! Or more accurately the butterflies. I filter posts based a some key words including “terf” and consequently anything with “terf” in it gets blocked such as “butterfly,” “waterfall,” and “monsterfucker.” Like so:

The post in question is reblogged by my girlfriend from my own side blog that has “butterfly” in the title

hellsitegenetics

that is quite honestly the funniest thing ever

Here's a tumblr post I found with additional information about what's been happening.

Just a heads up someone who @'d you recently (404shcats) is red on SE and likely a TERF. Thought you should know, stay safe broski -Recoil H

Here's another relevant thread

refresher for anyone who hasn't heard 🙃

I'm rather embarrassed to only be finding about this now considering the earliest complaints I found with limited searching date back to a month ago. Needless to say, it has become fully unreliable, so it's time to remove it.

Deviating from my usual posting content to share this, since I'm under the impression the Sky community is trans-friendly and thus may or may not be in the audience of people who use Shinigami Eyes.

As the person above me mentions, this not just a fluke. I had a look and the Firefox review page has very consistent comments noting discrimination against the non-binary, intersex, transmasc, and people of color. I dug around a bit more and found some similar complaints dating from around 2 months ago (potentially even 6?)

THIS IS SO SO IMPORTANT!!!

nihilisticvaginas

Part of the harm of invisibility for transmen is being bombarded with a million "emergency HRT" resources by a hundred different well meaning groups and absolutely zero of them mention testosterone. If they do it's basically a footnote. Testosterone is necessary HRT medication too, believe it or not. It is harder to synthesize and it is federally restricted and I think that's EVEN MORE REASON TO RESEARCH AND LINK EMERGENCY TESTOSTERONE HRT‼️

Readers, make sure you have all your favourite Ao3 fics downloaded.

Writers, make sure you have copies of all the fics you have posted on Ao3.

I don’t want to be alarming, but things could get really bad really fast. OTW shared this today on Twitter, and I'm a bit worried about it 😅

Ao3 is a non-profit organisation. If they have to start paying taxes, I have no idea what will happen.

I'd like to remind everybody that this isn't just about A03 or civil rights organizations. This could be applied to any 501 organization. That includes churches, schools, museums and library support organizations. All sorts of support organizations like soup kitchens or places like goodwill. Those are all non-profit organizations and they all have a 501 status. This is a threat to every civil organization we have that is meant to help the public.

So please contact your representatives. Please look this up on Twitter and click the link so you can call your representatives and voice against this. Because there's a hell of a lot more at stake with a bill like this than just ao3. People's lives could be at risk.

The House will vote THIS WEEK to determine whether the incoming Trump administration will have the power to shut down non-profit organizations with no due process.

Congress has already tried to fast-track this legislation once and failed because of the onslaught of calls to their offices. We can’t let them do this quietly. Congress giving Trump the power to crush dissent and target organizations fighting for justice is a betrayal. Tell your representatives to vote NO on this dangerous bill!
