as trans women flock to minnesota, providers are struggling to keep up with demand. waiting lists are months or years long, and many of us worry that our healthcare will be made inaccessible or downright illegal in the coming months.

our soon-to-be co-op for gender affirming care is growing quickly, and could grow even faster with your help! please chip in a few bucks to any of our open collective tiers and/or boost this post to help out trans women who are getting facial hair removal or preparing for bottom surgery!

Got myself a gender-affirming household device today — the BBQ Scrub Daddy!

As can be seen in the product images on the packaging, it is:
- Water Activated!
- Protected by heat-resistant ArmorTec STEEL™!
- Designed for heavy duty scouring
- Exclusive Materials to control my scrubbing power!
- Integrated bottle opener for that cold brewski I definitely have earned now, after cleaning up my own mess

There's even a small cut-out in the box where you can touch the sponge and FEEL THE DIFFERENCE before purchase.

Sure, hoping it's a nice scubber for the grill, but man, do they go overboard with assuring me this is a super masculine product for real men. Thinking this is probably a subsidiary of #EagleTactical

(And oh, that "water activated" feature is the fact that if you soak it in water and directly use it on your hot grill, it WILL produce steam. Cool.)

The fucking DAY I get contacted to set up surgery consultation for gender affirming surgery is the same day the U.S. House passed an anti-trans bill that would ban federal Medicaid funds from being used for gender affirming care services. The inhumanity of it all is exactly how fascism works. 🙄😭 #trans #genderaffirming #lgbtq #transgender #medicine #healthcare

-- lip/cheek/other filler
-- anti-aging treatments

Looks like the American Association of University Professors agrees with me!

#AAUP, Allies Sue over #Trump Policy of Arresting and Threatening to Deport #Students and #Faculty for #LawfulSpeech

"The national AAUP; chapters at #Harvard, #Rutgers, and #NYU; and the #MiddleEastStudies Association today filed a lawsuit seeking to block the Trump administration from carrying out large-scale arrests, detentions, and deportations of noncitizen students and faculty members who participate in #ProPalestinian #protests and other protected #FirstAmendment activities.

"We believe that the administration’s ideological-deportation policy violates the First Amendment by targeting constitutionally protected speech that Americans have a right to hear and engage with. The policy has created a climate of fear and repression on campuses around the country. We are represented in the case by the #KnightFirstAmendmentInstitute at #ColumbiaUniversity, #AhilanArulanantham, and Zimmer, Citron & Clarke LLP.

"Following executive orders issued by President Trump in January, the federal agencies that enforce immigration laws have arrested and detained several people associated with U.S. colleges and universities, including a legal permanent resident, on the basis of constitutionally protected speech and association.

"Today’s filing argues that the ideological-deportation policy has created a climate of #repression and intense fear on university #campuses, 'terrorizing students and faculty for their exercise of First Amendment rights in the past, intimidating them from exercising those rights now, and silencing political viewpoints that the government disfavors.'

"'The Trump administration is going after international #scholars and students who speak their minds about #Palestine, but make no mistake: they won't stop there. They'll come next for those who teach the history of #slavery or who provide #GenderAffirming health care or who research #ClimateChange or who counsel students about their reproductive choices. We all have to draw a line together—as the old labor movement slogan says: an injury to one is an injury to all,' says AAUP President Todd Wolfson.

"'The First Amendment means the government can’t arrest, detain, or deport people for lawful political expression—it’s as simple as that. This practice is one we’d ordinarily associate with the most repressive political regimes, and it should have no place in our democracy,' says #JameelJaffer, executive director at the Knight First Amendment Institute."

#VivianJennaWilson on Being #ElonMusk’s Estranged Daughter, Protecting #TransYouth and Taking on the #Right Online

In Teen Vogue’s special issue cover story, the estranged 20-year-old daughter of Elon #Musk talks about the 'cartoonishly evil' #Trump administration and being a young #TransWoman today.

March 20, 2025

Excerpt:

"Wilson’s vibrant life, full of possibility, underscores the lifesaving power of #GenderAffirming care for young people. As a child, Wilson struggled through #GenderDysphoria and the attendant mental health issues it often causes. She’s horrified by the wave of #AntiTrans legislation targeting young people like her. In the US, her peers are being demonized by the right, and are left undefended by Democrats. One of Trump’s first executive orders upon retaking office attempted to bar federal funding for health care providers that perform gender-affirming care for young people under 19; multiple federal judges have blocked the order from taking effect for now."

Conservatives are cherry pickers. They cherry pick the Bible, they cherry pick scientific research; basically they cherry pick *anything* that confirms their existing worldview and beliefs. Alas, this is the definition of confirmation bias. It’s what fascists have done all along to enforce their morally bankrupt and evil ideology. #lgbtq #trans #medicine #healthcare #science #genderaffirming https://www.advocate.com/politics/trump-hhs-transphobic-website#toggle-gdpr

Defense Secty #Hegseth has both halted all #genderaffirming medical procedures for active-duty service members and frozen all promotions for #military with "a history of #genderdysphoria ."

This is what prejudice and hate, draped in the American flag, looks like. The same memo promises that military #trans folk will be treated "dignity and respect," when the whole rest of the memo is about anything but.
