While MATURE is the one behind the whole “you need an ID to browse the internet” thing, THAT AND KOSA ARE STILL BAD
This just kills two birds with one stone. Boy, imagine a data breach. Yikes.
I don’t live in Kansas… but I’m an American of the Midwest, so that might be raising concerns for my safety against these kinds of bills.
DONT STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE! DONT STOP TAKING ABOUT GAZA!

Image ID:
You're only done talking about Palestine when we see a free Palestine.
Plain text:
Don't stop talking about Palestine! Don't stop talking about Gaza! Don't let them make you forget!!

Lawmakers can and will use this to censor information about Palestine let's be clear. This will harm queer kids
Also look up Fax Zero to fax your Representatives. If you have ideas for an Anti KOSA demonstration. Please let me know. And please forward it to @omarsbigsister on TikTok. Again she's done so much amazing work regarding this bill.
Also shout out to BypassCensorship.org for providing resource sin restrictive areas for people to BypassCensorship. Again if you have other anti censorship resources please forward them to me. Also look up Fax Zero to fax your Representatives. Thank you
JK Rowling has used her billionaire legal team to silence a Jewish woman for telling the truth about her contempt for trans victims of the Holocaust.
Scotland’s network of “freedom of speech” organisations, as per usual, have nothing to say about the use of wealth to gag critics of the wealthy.
However fast they race to condemn the LGBT+ community for saying the names of those who harm us. Statements at the ready to insist that transphobes no one wants to work with anymore must be given every possible opportunity to gain from their bigotry.
But it's not the billionaires who are being silenced, as our media breathlessly echo their every hateful proclamation.
It's journalists and activists forced to publicly humiliate themselves under the weight and the threat of billionaire legal teams or be driven into destitution.
We deserve better. Freedom of speech needs to mean something
The Streisand Effect strikes
This will swiftly become one of the primary things JK Rowling is remembered for. Trying to erase crimes of the Holocaust against trans people and then silencing Jewish journalists for calling her out.
With your help we can make sure JK Rowling is known as a Holocaust denier first, author of mediocre children's books second
Reblog for larger sample size!!!
Palestinian activists in Ontario are asking you to email your reps about Bill 166. The wording of the bill is extremely vague, but it seems like the Ford government wants to open itself the possibility to meddle in mental health services provided by Universities and to change their anti-racism policies. It is very likely - with the timing - that these policy changes are going to be saught to arrest / institutionalize Palestinians for divulge during therapy, or to deny them service altogether. They want to control University campus mental healthcare, something no other province does.
PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN ONTARIO! SIGN THIS LETTER!
need more women with swords giving me wisdom tbh
Hey since there isn’t a lot of trans masc love
🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️
This account is a trans masc safe space (I’m a trans guy myself)
Uh idk what else to say
I just wanted trans mascs to know they’re very appreciated!!!
Bonus:
That's the first tag we get. Now this:
Protect trans men isn't even a tag on this site. I'm sick and tired of trans men being excluded and ignored in every community. Look at trans men. Protect trans men or you're transphobic period. You only love trans women because of your fetishes. Support trans men too or you're literally a transphobe even if you say you love trans women.
I know it’s not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say
reblog if attacking fascism is really the hill you want to die on
this is literally like one of the most justified and honorable hills you could die on??? lol??
Quick someone reply with the gif™️
Always reblog this if you are cool
KOSA update:
For anyone who hasn't seen (me included lol), the verge has put out an article about KOSA and how its not as clear if congress will pass it now as multiple other bills are competing against it and legislators are struggling to decide which to back.
https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/29/24086559/kids-online-safety-act-schatz-tech-groups
One of the proposed bills is this one
In short, instead of making a bunch of tech bros surrogate parents on the internet, instead it would invest a ton of money into actually going after and investigating actual child predators, modernize the cyber tipline, and do research on prevention/ detection programs, among a few other things.
So please, if you're American, you still have time to call up your reps and tell them you're against Kosa, which is good, but giving them suggestions like this bill is better
If KOSA passes, I will die.
I am not being dramatic, I am not joking.
Maybe I won't physically die, but what will happen is any opportunity to be myself, to experience support, to escape my reality, will be gone.
I will be forced to live as somebody I'm not.
For all intents and purposes, I will be dead.
That in turn will lead to my already shitty mental health worsening.
I've been clean for over a year.
Please don't let this bill pass, I can't handle being in such a dark headspace again.
This bill is putting myself, and millions of other minors in danger.
How ironic.
Stop KOSA.
i’m collecting these
I don't see that anyone had posted this yet so I will. I didn't make this, just took it off of Twitter before making my exodus. As a tgirl I can sometimes feel insecure about my tummy shape. Finding this picture helped with that a lot. Now I don't feel dysphoric over my tummy.
Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.
We need to show these higher ups how much we truly value them.
is your blog a safe space for freaks, deviants, cringe failgirls, transfems you find personally annoying, transfems who are Loud and Opinionated, is it safe for all of us ?
if you are a just an absolutely fucked up strange and offputting tgirl PLEASE GODS PLEASE COME TO ME PLEAAASSE I NEED YOUUU
