Tierra Walker died at 37 from hypertensive cardiovascular disease with preeclampsia at 20 weeks pregnant after Texas doctors denied her a life-saving abortion. Her family is now suing Ken Paxton and others, calling Texas's abortion ban unconstitutional. The lawsuit is the first of its kind.

niche subtweet but the kennedy center is actually really cool and had a lot of programs to make it more affordable to attend AND used to have free concerts every day that they also have online with smaller artists and it makes me sad seeing people blow it off ):

Only $85 to go! Sincere thanks to those who have helped make a dent 🙏🏾💜, but I still need the rest by 4PM today.

Please share if you can.
Ahaha FUCK. I miscalculated when setting up my bill payments and I'm going to be $100 short tomorrow when they hit. FML.

I hate asking, but if anyone can help in any way at all, please know I'd be incredibly grateful.

trans people are by and large the working class. we get paid less than cis people overall (trans men make less than cis women, and trans women make less than everyone). we face housing and job discrimination. when will the conmentariat get this into their goddamned heads
i think it should be more commented on that jacobin put out a 57 page report that basically says candidates need to moderate on social issues, in particular trans rights
