I hope people who might not have been as invested until the Macklemore presser (oh thank you) are tuning in. This is HUGE before the midterms. WTAH
A minor detail is missing from the headline.

Macklemore posted on Instagram today and he shared a phrase that a friend shared with him (in Arabic translated here) "There is no thanks for a duty". This is a motto to keep. For no money or fame in the world can replace integrity. #macklemore #endgenocide #notantisemetic
Kinda hard to for @Patriots owner Robert Kraft to make the claim this was about fighting antisemitism and not protecting Israel when Kanye still gets to play stadiums after ‘HH’ but @macklemore doesn’t 🤔

There's something extra exhausting about the expectation from cis people that trans people should be nice and acquiesce quietly, when a lot of us have lost friends in recent years, have been fleeing homes or are helping out friends fleeing or trying to keep them afloat after being ousted from work..

Note to assholes....
If I were in Texas I would grudgingly vote for Talarico, even though he's proven himself to be a cowardly little shit.

But I also sure wouldn't lecture trans people on being justifiably mad about him being a cowardly little shit

I won't be ashamed at my death to say what I stood for, who I stood for, and how I fought like hell for my community.
Our kids and grandkids are going to ask us who we were during these dark times, and for some of you the answer will be "the guy who had opinions about which vulnerable people we should let them kill"

If folks on here want to pretend that the only thing Talarico said was about sports, that's fine—it's also not true.

He would ban gender affirming care for 17 year olds. And I'm sure many of you haven't tried to figure out how to keep a trans kid from killing themselves, so you don't get it
Talarico says he would vote in favor of a national ban for transgender surgeries for minors

I can’t say everyone (cause I can’t be) but nearly everyone can be bought. Disappointing does come close #talarico

The DOJ is claiming 61 transgender athletes in Jeff Co, but records show male participants on girls’ teams were team managers and mascots, not athletes. They also confused a cross-country roster in which the same coach oversees separate programs for boys & girls. Dhillon at her best. MASCOTS! lol

Always a trailblazer, in 2013 she wrote in an Advocate op ed that trans people “should be celebrated, not questioned.” One person I so would have liked to have met.
Thank you, Gloria, for fighting to make this world a better place for women and LGBTQ+ people — at work, at home, and in every community.

May her memory be a blessing.

The architecture of anti-trans panic is built, in part, by parents who refuse to accept their kids as trans and then become anti-trans pundits.

On Valentines Day this year, women across the UK sent us messages of love, hope and belonging to share with the trans+ community.

We post them again now, because we want trans+ people to know that in these difficult times you are seen, valued and never alone.

They will. And these young people won’t forget. It won’t cause a backlash on queer people, it will result in a revolution as these young people grow up. They will make sure it doesn’t happen again. I believe it.
