Using slurs like ‘adult virgin who owns electric car company’ is hateful language that will no longer be tolerated. https://t.co/ACivzk71e3

Elon Musk announced that he will restrict the term "cisgender" on twitter, declaring it a slur.

This is a recycling of anti-gay tactics, which declared "straight" a slur.

"Cis" has a long history, and I examine it here.

I'm often asked "But does ABA 'work'?".

Oh it works, it smashes your autistic childs esteem & moulds them to mimic neurotypical behaviour whilst in constant fight or flight.

PTSD for life & no awareness of rights or autonomy.

Susceptible to grooming.

Is that what you want?

He’s been impeached twice.
He’s been indicted twice.
He’s been found liable for sexual abuse & defamation.
He’s under investigation for attempting to overturn a legitimate Presidential election, both federally and on the state level.
And despite ALL of this - there is STILL a very strong chance that the Republican Party will once again put Donald Trump at the top of their ticket.
Let that sink in.

@KimberlyEliseC @StacyCaySlays Being trans is not a choice. It's who they are. Transitioning their body is the choice that many can make.

The Nebraska teenager who was arrested for using abortion medication to terminate her pregnancy is facing two years behind bars. Her mother, who provided the abortion pills, is looking at eight years in prison. A woman in South Carolina was arrested for abortion. This is scary.

This isn't L&D, this is a hostage situation. #AbortionIsHealthCare

"Hogan says she was threatened with arrest if she left the hospital to seek care elsewhere, and she was kept there until she gave birth to her stillborn son in a hospital bathroom"

The whole "queer people are groomers," thing is a lie. It's made up. It's called "scapegoating." It's what Nazi Germany did with Jews. If you believe that shit you are being brainwashed by fascists. End.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Friendly reminder: donald trump has been criminally indicted, found liable for sexual assault and is currently under active state and federal investigations for plotting a coup, inciting an insurrection, interfering in an election and stealing, hiding & then lying about the whereabouts of classified national security documents.

Oh yeah, and the Durham findings don’t “exonerate” shit.

Happy Monday.

On May 24, 2022 in Uvalde Texas, an 18 year old walked into Robb Elementary School and shot and killed 19 children and 2 adults.

Two days ago in Houston Texas, a man paused his dinner date to shoot and kill a fake parking attendant.

Last night in Cleveland Texas, 5 members of a family (including an 8 year old child) were shot and killed by their neighbor after they asked him to stop firing his gun on his front lawn so their baby could sleep.

So when Republican lawmakers in a state where it’s easier to get AR-15s than books about Black history say their abortion ban is about being “pro-life”…
They’re full of shit.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans are accusing the trans community of ‘waging a war’ on women.

Meanwhile:
In the state of Idaho - the Governor signed a bill into law which prevents young women from exercising their constitutional right to travel to get the legal abortion care they need.

In the state of Florida - if a victim of incest or rape is impregnated by her attacker, she has to provide documentation to “prove” her assault in order to become “eligible” for an abortion.

In Texas, women are being forced to risk their own lives before being allowed to have an abortion. In many cases, waiting until they are SEPTIC before a doctor will help them.

In the state of Alabama, a woman who is raped and impregnated by her assailant cannot legally seek an abortion at all, and any doctor who helps her to get one, can be punished with a life sentence in jail.

So yes, there is indeed a war on women.
And Republicans are the ones waging it.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

If you’re making the case for why 12 year olds should get married, I don’t wanna hear a goddamn word from you about how the left is “grooming” our children, you child endangering, book banning, library defunding, rollin’ back the clock to the 1850s, what the hell are y’all overcompensating for, self-serving, crisis creating, hypocritical freaks.

[Lakota Man @LakotaMan1]

No, this isn’t Trump’s future prison or his handcuffs. These tiny cuffs and this “Modernized jail for the incorrigibles” were for Native children at the Carlisle Indian Boarding School in Pennsylvania.

This is the U.S. history people like Ron DeSantis—don’t want you to know.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans in Florida want to stop girls from talking about their periods in school.

In Idaho, they’ve rejected a bill that would have funded free menstrual products in public school bathrooms.

And in Virginia, the Governor has made sure authorities could issue search warrants in order to seize a young girl or woman’s menstrual data.

All of this, while they seek to criminalize abortion & deny a woman’s access to contraception.

If this isn’t an all-out Handmaid’s Tale style assault on women and girls, I don’t know what is.

"Don't you remember when the shooter came to my school, like at Uvalde?”

My face went white and I stopped folding laundry. “What are you talking about?” I asked my eight-year-old. (1/5)
