In light of some of the many things happening across the world this year, I thought this Pride Month needed a special illustration.
Happy Pride Month, may we all stay safe, look after each other, and keep painting our rainbows, no matter what. ππ³οΈβππ³οΈββ§οΈ

I already have a post somewhere I canβt locate that says exactly this but
No one hates women more than TERFs. No one is more misogynistic than them. They are white nationalist, conservative, trad wife adjacent sexist douche bags.
Iβll never get over this. Iβll never stop talking about it. Thereβs too much at stake for my trans friends, family, and all. Thereβs too much at stake for those who cares about liberation and bodily autonomy. Iβll always be calling TERFs out as long as they exist and dirty up feminism and as long as they are an especially virulent scourge HERE.
Ya know whoβs never made me feel reduced to my fucking menstrual cycle? Or implied my brain is fundamentally worse than a cis manβs? Or outright disparaged femininity? Or told me that I donβt understand feminism? Or showed up in the notes of my post telling me I donβt know myself? The trans women I know, follow, am connected to, and read.
Iβm not 20. Iβm not new. (Thereβs nothing wrong with being either of those things Iβm just not them.) But almost every time TERFs run away with my posts attacking me bc I hate their twisted views, they infantalize me and say I must not know anything or be a kid. Or that I donβt intimately KNOW ALREADY what their fucked up views are and have rejected them for good reason.
They hate that the truth is that me and millions of folks just like me have been in feminist spaces longer than many of them have been alive and because of said feminist exposure we are trans positive, inclusive, celebratory, affirming, loving, and solidarity oriented.
The linkages between the experiences of cis and trans women are obvious, overt, clear, and undeniable. Misogyny is misogyny.
Iβve been in said spaces since 2003 and have worked in feminist, girl serving and focused nonprofits since 2005. TERFs/their views make me feel disgusting, small, stuck, and hated. I donβt know how many trans folks Iβve known and interacted with in my IRL lifetime but itβs definitely north of 30 bc 2 of my closest friends (who Iβve known since my late teens) are trans and welcome me into their spaces and several of my coworkers are trans/nb. I canβt think of a single trans person online or IRL who has dismissed my lived experience or harassed me in my inbox like the TERFs here do. (I donβt know any TERFs IRL but maybe theyβre hiding. I was unfortunately educated by at least 1 in my under grad gender studies classes in the early 00s which began to cement my trans positive stance.)
ANYWAY I keep ranting and rallying on this stuff bc time and time again TERFs treat me like shit and trans women treat me like sisters. Itβs unhinged to see and feel this and watch trans folks face relentless attacks. Anti trans bias and violence dressed up as feminism is fucking wrong. It just is.
You know I will actually

My mom kept complaining that all of a sudden the Beatles are back and they're fucking everywhere and they're so obnoxious and were practically having an orgy in her garden under a cucumber leaf and that's when I realized she meant spotted cucumber beetles and not Paul McCartney
They should invent a method of asking for reassurance that nobody secretly hates you that doesn't make people secretly hate you.
this reply deserves to be here.
[Image ID: a reply reading: Try actively listening for assurance. I found I just missed it because I was so preoccupied with my own thoughts, but really today's assurance came in the form of my roommate offering to share the dinner she made. It came in the form of my coworker raising his eyebrows, impressed with my work. I found it in my father's hearty laugh at a gimmick I showed him. People won't sit you down and tell you directly; switch your overanalyzing from internal to noticing good things. End ID

they went off with this
@ruffboijuliaburnsides basedball
hot damn they really did go off with this
Reminder: this is Trump's America right now. This is a very anti-DEI, anti-queer moment in our nation's history. Lots of groups and companies who used to do surface-level Pride pandering are going to be quiet this year - even if they don't throw themselves fully behind the hate, for optics reasons - because the current administration is making supporting diversity less profitable and more ~political~. So groups and companies who look at the current state of things in the US and say "fuck you, we're supporting the queer community anyway"? Who are going out of their way to stand with us even when it seems more people are standing against us than ever? That means something. That's worth noting.
This year, even more than other years, the Seattle Mariners didn't have to do this. The Seattle Mariners wanted to do this.
The neighbours had no idea. The medical equipment came from eBay. But in a dark time for transgender people, these anarchist medics treated
extremely cool article you should read if you havenβt already
Members of the Goal Diggers, a non profit trans inclusive FC for women and nonbinary players, posing for photos at their "Let The Dolls Play" tournament held today in London, UK.
"Today the FA's ban on trans women playing football came into play. So our response to this message of division, was to show what unity looks like through our Let The Dolls Play tournament.
We came together as a grassroots football community and made it clear that trans women belong in women's football.
The tournament was a reminder of the immense power football has to bring about joy and the incredible strength of our grassroots community.
Trans women are women.
Let the dolls play.
π©΅π©·π€"
The club is selling shirts (manufactured at a Sedex-monitored workshop in Cairo that supplies fair wages as well as meals and transportation to workers) bearing the Let The Dolls Play slogan with all proceeds going towards Good Law Project's fund to support a legal challenge against the UK Supreme Court ruling endangering trans citizens.
we DO grow old and happy. btw.
And you find love and it stays with you.
Older women are so, so beautiful, and older trans women are no exception. Celebrate the beauty of our elders! Celebrate trans beauty!
I wanted to share some more of these, specifically trans women of color. The images I'm posting are from a project called To Survive On This Shore and it's an interview project. I am only posting a handful so it's so worth checking out!
This is Linda, 60
Alexis, 64
Helena, 63
Kendrah, 72 (!!)
Tasha, 65
It was deeply healing to me to discover this project. The site has selected photos and attached interviews and it's definitely worth your time. I didn't include any because the focus of this post imo is transfems but there are a lot of beautiful interviews with transmasc people too if you're interested! But that'll have to be another post π
for those interested, the photographer is Jess T. Dugan. The link to this particular project is as follows:

I hope I will live long enough to see a world where all trans people can grow old and be happy and beautiful
