This is what drives me fucking insane as a trans woman. Because on the one side, you have a ton of cis people saying things that are just blatantly incorrect because they don’t understand just how much HRT changes your body, especially if you start young. To give you an idea, I started at 19 and the movement of my…

Are we going to pretend that the power of money to buy a shit-ton of ads has nothing to do with fucking Bloomberg’s rise? Because let’s be real, that’s what this motherfucker is doing, buying the election.

I say this as someone who is a trans reader and longtime commenter here: this article does not really help to advocate for trans issues. The idea of “variation exists, therefore it’s fine” does not adequately address this issue. A better set of arguments is:

I 100% believe these girls who were born as boys identify as female and are trans.

Even while I was hesitating clicking on the article in the first, I still ended up being utterly baffled by the really twisted logic here. And before anything else, I still have not seen a definite or, to be honest, even indicative research on what is the benefit, if any, of transathletes have in their sports,…

It’s a perplexing leap between candidates with drastically different policy proposals, and little more in common than gender and party affiliation. White women in New Hampshire abandoned a progressive candidate who has advocated for free public college, medicare-for-all, and the end of cash bail for a moderate who…

Whew lawd I knew the comments would be good, lololol. Lawd the hand-wringing here is really somethin’ special.

Bernie is the only one who can beat Trump.

The way that CNN and their correspondents or talking heads or whatever the fuck you call them have responded to this story has really helped turn me full conspiracy theorist. Like the woman on CNN earlier, who talked about Benjamin Dixon (the guy who brought this audio to Twitter’s attention) by basically saying “he’s…

So in doubling down in this idiocy that Bloomberg, who is attempting to literally buy his way into a nomination, is not an oligarch you not only return this motherfucker to the top ten but you put him at the top 3?

For a variety of reasons, I do not think what is happening in Iowa is not a conspiracy, and a vocal segment of Sanders supporters are uniquely prone to believing absurd conspiracy theories. BUT, the events of the past few days are tailor made for conspiracy, and it’s easy to see how Sanders supporters see one here.

I said this before this started and I’ll say it again now. If Impeachment increases the chances of him being defeated in 2020 it was a smart move if it decreases the chance of him being defeated in 2020 its a stupid move. As its November 2020 that matters, today was never going to have a different outcome. Right now,…

The real irony is that Biden was the candidate who put this “rigged” narrative out there.

Three or four months ago, I couldn’t have told you, between Biden and Buttigieg, who I wanted least. Now, it is clear. If it comes down to Biden and Buttigieg, I would donate to Biden, phone bank for Biden, plaster my car with Biden bumper stickers, anything to prevent Buttigieg from being the nominee. He is such a…

It feels wild to have some hope but here I am, tearing up and having hope. The idea of everyone in my family being insured, the disability rights plan...fuck I did not want to be this invested because the disappointment is so soul crushing.

It really is something to see a bunch of establishment, third way Democrats, who have overseen some pretty stunning losses of power and influence, panic because a couple of viable candidates are *gasp* reviving a brand of New Deal populism that saw Democrats wield at least some significant amount of power in one form…

sounds like a fun party

That “I put a black boy behind bars for life over an accidental killing” is a significant part of her answer to “how have you helped black communities?” says an awful lot about her career in the first place, little of it good. And if he’s behind bars on some bullshit to boot, that should be the end of the line for…

I think part of the reason she’s doing this is because if Sanders wins the nomination and then goes on to win the presidency, then it somewhat - not entirely, but somewhat - vindicates the “Bernie woulda won” crowd. So I think she’s trying to doing what she can to put her thumb on the scale against Bernie, in the…

Its amusing seeing blue check twitter demand Bernie denounce and shut the Palestinian woman up.
