Reminder: Before you disrespect a racist on their passing, remember they may have family members and friends who love them. You should disrespect those people too.

Well, folks, my latest Wired column is live. It's about the urgent need for publicly visible displays of trans joy and resistance, and how popular social media platforms provide every incentive to suppress it in favour of terror, despair, and doom.
Having seen so many of my fellow trans people afraid that no one is noticing the far-right's attacks on trans rights, or that no one is speaking out or fighting back, I felt it was time to push back on the algorithmic doom.
Because, really, don't we all need more singing robotic bunnies in our lives?
Spoilers for Picard Season 3, episode 10, but it's funny, you should watch this....
@dolari EXCELLENT.

Forgive me friends, I had to. Spoilers for Picard Season 3, episode 10.
@Momentrabbit take good care of yourself.
@socketwench if you ever really want to try it, i would be happy to send you some genuine Imo's-brand crusts and provel--NOT to imply that Imo's is the superior provider of STL-style pizza; that's a misconception. but the goods they sell in grocery stores here are more than adequate for home pizza-crafting.
@socketwench you need a thin, cracker-like crust, provel cheese (not provelone, provel! it is its own thing!), and a willingness to cut the pizza into squares rather than triangles; regardless of how unnatural it may seem. and toasted ravioli on the side.
i have no defense for my home state of #Missouri, i did not know that this was going to become one of the battleground states for trans rights, abortion rights and the right to bodily autonomy.
i will only say that, like in every state in flyover country, there are plenty of marginalized folks here who are doing their damndest to survive and organize under the thumb of christofascist authoritarianism. yes, there are plenty of bigots and assholes too, but if you visit you will find flourishing areas of culture, beauty and vibrance that stand in direct opposition to fascism and hatred.
please don't lump us all in with the bastards. we're doing our best here. i promise if you give us the benefit of the doubt we won't even be mad if you don't like St. Louis-style pizza (but you should still try it at least once, seriously).
Regular reminder that #forcedpregnancy is rape and slavery, and all prosecutors, cops, judges, and law makers taking away that bodily autonomy are active rapists and slavers.
Treat them accordingly.
