Apparently I have too much time on my hands, because I’ve gone and finally finished a short story. 😇
“State of Correction” is now up on my Ko-Fi (completely free to read):
-> https://ko-fi.com/post/State-of-Correction-U5G826QY95It’s a dystopian little tale about trans people, authoritarianism, resistance, and the stubborn human refusal to abandon one another in the dark.
It’s angry. It’s bleak. It has rifles, rain, drones, government oppression, and things like that.
So, you know. Light bedtime reading. 💜
If you enjoy my writing, do have a peek, and perhaps buy the chronically under-caffeinated enby a coffee while you’re there. ☕💜

CW: CW: transphobia, fascist rhetoric, homophobia
Transphobic gay men are betraying us.
Not because gay men are somehow required to agree with every political position held by everyone under the rainbow. Disagreement is perfectly fine.
What is not fine is standing shoulder-to-shoulder with people who want to strip another queer minority of their rights, dignity, history, and humanity.
And that is exactly what some transphobic gay men are doing.
They rewrite Stonewall as though trans people weren't there. They erase trans women and gender-nonconforming people from queer history. They suddenly treat people who have been fighting alongside queer communities for decades as dangerous interlopers who somehow wandered into their movement.
And then there is the language.
“Biological males.”
“Men in dresses.”
“Groomers.”
“Predators.”
“Degenerates.”
“An ideology.”
“An invasion.”
“Protect the children.”
Sometimes they even start borrowing the vocabulary of outright fascists: talking about “purging” people, “cleansing” movements, “defending society” from supposedly dangerous minorities, or portraying trans people as some sinister ideological conspiracy infiltrating queer communities.
And when you point out what they are doing, there comes the inevitable:
“But I'm gay!”
Yes.
And?
Being a member of a persecuted minority does not grant you a magical certificate of moral superiority. A gay man can be transphobic. He can be racist. He can be misogynistic. He can support fascists. He can participate in the persecution of another minority.
Queer history has never been a morality play in which everyone wearing a rainbow automatically becomes a good person.
And that is precisely why this makes me so angry.
Because gay men know what it feels like when society decides that you are disgusting. They know what it means to be called unnatural, diseased, dangerous, corrupting, perverted. They know what it is like when politicians turn your existence into a public debate and strangers feel entitled to tell you that you shouldn't exist.
And yet some have apparently decided that the correct response to surviving that experience is to help inflict it on someone else.
That isn't courage.
It isn't “critical thinking.”
It isn't “protecting gay rights.”
And it certainly isn't solidarity.
It is the oldest trick in the fascist playbook:
First, decide who belongs.
Then decide who belongs less.
Then decide who doesn't belong at all.And I have absolutely no intention of helping anyone build that staircase.
Trans people are part of queer history.
We fought at Stonewall.
We cared and nursed during the AIDS crisis.
We marched alongside other queer people.
We loved, protected, cared, and fought with and for our connunity.
We are not an embarrassing footnote to queer history that can be edited out because somebody suddenly discovered respectability politics.
We are part of the family.
And when someone tries to erase us from queer history while simultaneously describing us with the language of fascists, I am not impressed by their rainbow credentials.
I'm looking at what they do.
What they do tells me what they stand for.
And I will stand with the people being thrown under the bus.
Every. Single. Time. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

CW: CW: transphobia, anti-trans rhetoric, political hate speech
I really need to stop reading all the trans-exclusionary stuff. It makes me angry. It makes me depressed. Frankly, my nervous system has filed a formal complaint.
Unfortunately, I also feel the need to document it. Screenshots. Dates. Names. Statements. The whole miserable little dossier.
Because one day, when the political weather changes, some of these people will suddenly insist they were always on our side. They will say they supported trans people, that they were merely asking questions, that they were always fighting for equality.
And I will remember.
Not because I enjoy keeping score. Not because I want revenge.
(I do enjoy both of these things, but...)
But because history has a nasty habit of being rewritten by people who know perfectly well what they said when it mattered.
I will not let that happen. Neither should you.
For future historians. For accountability. And because apparently somebody has to keep the fucking receipts.

Bamby Salcedo — three decades for trans Latina survival, $15M secured in California. Sarah McBride — 17 trans-rights bills in 16 months. Three HIV non-progressors holding viral suppression without antiretrovirals. The work does not wait.

#Introduction I seem to write these too often, but here we go again…
Hi my name is River and I’m a 36 year old #trans woman,
My pronouns are She/Her They/Them,
I began to #transition 24 months ago (HRT for 12 months)I’am #Bi / #Pan depending on how you define it (Personality is key, but I have the right hormones now so I sometimes have “needs”)
I’m radical about #TransRights , I’m a #QueerAnarchist , and I describe myself as a social liberationist because #TransLiberation is also liberation for all, for when one person does not have #bodilyautonomy no one does.
I am strongly #antifacist this includes terfs incase this confuses them, you can’t be a #feminist and take sides with the patriarchy!
I’m a #Vegan for animal rights/ecology, and I love to cook.
I am an avid reader and watcher of #SciFi , I like most things but have a leaning to Utopianism over Dystopian fiction, the world mirrors the worst corporate nightmares as it is. Escapism does not always have to be as dark.
I sometimes struggle with my #MentalHealth ; I suffer from an #anxiety disorder, as well as #cPTSD , and I’m a #CSASurvivor .
I have a #ChronicPain condition from a slight spinal stenosis (L4-L5) This sometimes can limit my mobility.
So this is me and I have begun to take some time just for myself; to explore my identity, I spent too long pretending to be someone I could never have been and who I really did not want to be.
So I am excited for where this journey will take me, and I look forward to sharing my experiences with you all.So if this seems not to be the most boring thing in the world to witness my second adolescence, then feel free to follow me, or boost anything I might say of value.

Criminalizing the lives of marginalized people is not an unfortunate accident but the very purpose of the ruling majority's laws. The purpose of a system is what it actually does, not what those who profit most from it say it's supposed to do.

"Be gay, do crimes" is a statement that makes explicit what is already implicitly understood, that the law in cishet society criminalizes the existence of queer people and we will find neither protection nor justice under their laws.

Queer people should be a threat to the whole oppressive and exploitative social order that cishet people have constructed to enrich themselves at our expense. We should strive to dismantle that oppressive system, not to elevate ourselves within it.

The anarcha-queer hears that cishet people see queer people as a threat, and the anarcha-queer says "Good. We are."

"Be gay, do crimes" has the same DNA as "ACAB" and "Pride Was A Riot. "Be gay, do crimes" is a direct challenge to pinkwashing and rainbow capitalism and assimilation into cishet society that requires queer people to be silently and invisibly queer. "Be gay, do crimes" is a refusal to make our queerness non-threatening to cishet people.

More people need to know that "be gay, do crimes" isn't just some ready-made marketing slogan to plaster across tee shirts and coffee mugs. "Be gay, do crimes" is a queer anarchism rallying cry.

I support trans rights but more importantly I support trans wrongs 🏳️⚧️
In any authoritarian power structure the law exists to criminalize the existence of marginalized people, providing a veneer of legitimacy to our oppression. Our real crime is being trans. We may as well do other crimes too.

I’m radical about #transrights,
I’m a #queeranarchist, for when the politics of the Left begin to drift soft right, they cease to represent anyone but themselves, the time has come for real change.
I describe myself as a social liberationist because #transliberation is liberation for all,
for when one person does not have #bodilyautonomy no one does.
I am strongly #antifascist this includes terfs incase this confuses them, you can’t be a #feminist and take sides with the patriarchy!2/5
