Hey, this newsletter that’s bigger than yours left Substack and is now making more money, even though some parts of the migration are tricky. There’s even starting to be a cohort of other writers you can talk to for tips, so make the leap! https://www.todayintabs.com/p/migration-report…

Resisting Anti-Trans Logic, part 2: #feminism, women and children.
An abridged adaptation #Trans Facts, from Resisting #Transphobia in Edinburgh, aimed at giving people the tools to recognise and correct misinformation when they come across it.

Me: Hmm, maybe I should look into Bun again and see how its Node.js compatibility is coming along.
Also me: I wonder who makes Bun…
Me, yet again: Ah, it’s a venture-capital funded startup called Oven (see what they did there?)
Finally, me: rm -rf ~/.bun
(Remember, kids: Venture capital is the fart that precedes enshittification. It’s best not to linger once you’ve caught a whiff of it.)

It became a Prince's first number one song, the biggest song of the year, and one of the greatest pop singles of all time. He …

I have a disability and I found a job I love. Social Security is making me pay dearly. | The Hill
https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/4563974-i-found-a-job-i-love-social-security-is-making-me-pay-dearly-for-it/

I have a disability and I found a job I love. Social Security is making me pay dearly.
Social Security penalizes tens of thousands of workers with disabilities each year by demanding they pay a debt that isn’t of their own making.

I have #LongCOVID, so my body is fucked. It feels like it is slowly dying on me. But the deepest damage the ongoing pandemic has done to me personally, is that it has made me lose my last shred of hope in humanity. The decrease in solidarity and the increase in ableism that i experienced, either because it was directed towards myself or because i observed it all around, in society at large, has sent me into complete despair.
The social contract has been broken, when the weakest no longer get protected. Which opens up the path for fascism to spread. And neither the radical leftists nor the feminists, who usually write solidarity, antifascism, yadda yadda onto their flags, seem to make the connection.
Never before have i felt so lonely, so utterly desperate. There is not one chance in hell that we can tackle the even bigger issues, like the climate crisis, inequality or migration, when we have failed to mobilize in order to combat the organized abandonment and slow murder that has been unleashed during this pandemic against our chronically ill and disabled siblings.
The radical leftist project has failed.
Capitalism and fascism have won.
But way too few even notice this.

Hey folks, just a quick heads up that the fundraiser for the Ugandan #LGBTQ refugees in #Kakuma camp in #Kenya that I shared then quickly deleted was apparently a scam.
Thank you to those who alerted me …

The full Trans Facts resource is here. It refutes around twenty of the most common specious attack lines used to deny #trans people's human rights and access to healthcare.
The fact I can even write "twenty of the most common specious attack lines" says something grim about the state of the discourse around trans people. There are plenty more where these came from, alas.
