Happy Trans Day of Visibility #TDOV

Here’s a thread of pics of me hanging out, being Trans.

We’ll start with me sleeping through a football game w/ my dad and chilling in a kiddie pool. Little country-chunky-monkey James was trans, even then! 🥰

Then people will be all, “Why should we vote for you? What about when you caved on a weak deal and I lost my health insurance?” and they’ll be all, “See! This is why we lose!! You’re so busy attacking your own team! You must want fascists to win!”

Every f**king time with these people. And watch, they’ll concede on repro, they’ll hold the subsidies vote, which we’ll lose… then Dems will be like, “we’re proud of our hard work and efforts, this is why everyone needs to vote”

@Delta Hi, this is my content. I agreed to let you use it with proper credit. I’ve messaged and got not response. Please change “James S., Delta Customer” to what we agreed to in 2017 when this was taken: James Parker Sheffield

[James Parker Sheffield @JayShef]

@Delta Hey, this video is my content. The agreed upon terms were that you could use it with appropriate credit, which is James Parker Sheffield + my handle, not “James S., Delta Customer.”

@ATLJono ATL Dems aren’t helping much either, unfortunately.

[James Parker Sheffield @JayShef]

Who needs GOP enemies when you have Dem friends like Kathy Hochul. This is how we build toward losing in 2024.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

New York Governor Kathy Hochul is sitting on a pile of bills. She isn’t vetoing them, or signing them, she’s just keeping them in limbo.

All of them were passed by the Democratic Assembly and passed by the Democratic Senate.

But she simply isn’t making them into law. Thread.

1. 90% of Americans use the standard deduction and aren't able to deduct charitable contributions

So, tax deductions for charitable giving is mostly for the wealthy.

And the way that many wealthy people use the deduction has become increasingly divorced from its purpose

I miss the days when the most serious function of this site would have been to discuss Dolly Parton for the next 48-72 hours.

[James Parker Sheffield @JayShef]

But go ahead establishment Dems, pretend this issue isn’t going to cost us 2024.

Gov. Kemp's Leadership PAC fundraising off of "Cop City."
If you click through, the donation link uses an AJC headline as its letterhead.

[James Parker Sheffield @JayShef]

@ParkerMolloy Yep. Every wagon will circle in behind him and we’re going to have a repeat of 2016.

[Becca Peter @DefectiveBecca]

Wheelchair users have been trying for ages to raise awareness about their wheelchairs being broken so often when they fly, and the devastating impact this has on them.

@AmericanAir baggage handlers decided to give a demonstration of how much they enjoy breaking them 😡

[Hillary Holley @HillaryHolley4]

This happened while @BrianKempGA held onto a nearly $10 billion surplus.

[Vote to Stop Cop City @CopCityVote]

Before we even begin to comment on how inappropriate and against the City’s OWN published guidelines this would be if true, @DougShipman needs to confirm if the City Council gave permission to a city-hired law firm to begin verification of petitions behind closed doors.

[Dripped Out Trade Unionists @UnionDrip]

Why is it always "work more and take less" rather than tax the rich?

[James Parker Sheffield @JayShef]

This is truest of all true things

[James Parker Sheffield @JayShef]

Yeah… if we send war money to Israel at this point, not sure how we explain ourselves to the world

@oneunderscore__ How do I get that gig? I’m trans and willing to be retained 😀

[Krista Brewer @KristaRBrewer]

Why was he stopped? Why was he asked to get out of the car? Of course, he feared being arrested! https://t.co/xvN4rHb6BY
