Two Black trans women were killed within two weeks in Chicago.
Activists are begging the city to take the crimes more seriously โ and to stop misgendering the victims.

@NeutralGena
they made an exception bc they want her to be cyberbullied more :/ Itโs her storylineโฆ RealityTV is like this some timesโฆ
@T0M1EC0RE
@evil_female
she started to lose the point but then she caught it again: itโs about living a good healthy life in community ๐ 3 meals a day. share when you can. itโs not about hormones itโs about respect and health and kindness. thatโs how I hear her.
I'm so happy
@TamishaIman1
drew the spotlight to some of our drag legends who passed on rpdr tonight ๐ฅบ I hope everyone remembers to celebrate the LGBT icons of our past... they're our history ๐ฅฐ
yellow pikmin: hup. hup. hup. okaaay! hup hi wahoo.
red pikmin: hooray! hup hup he hoo he hup hup hiyeeaaahh!
blue pikmin: Oh, darling. That isnโt a problem at all. Thank you for trusting me, you are in my heart always.
what's fucked up to me is that being kind, talented, and among the best in her field wasn't. enough. I'm so mad at the inequalities that prevent black people from receiving adequate health care. rest in peace chichi. I'm so sorry ๐ lots of love to everyone who loved her

@normcharlatan
she said โcovid doesnโt affect kids so we should reopen the schoolsโ in the same publication- hereโs an overview from vox from last year
@CWBChicago
thatโs my friend and they were not a woman (nonbinary). I am so sad. they had a lot of life ahead of them, and they did not play around with hard drugs. they liked witchcraft and computers and books. they helped people get into technology. this is heartbreaking ๐
listen. Iโm bi so lgbt stuff is for me. but also I am a hag. I come by it honestly. I inherited it from my mother (a theater kid who had lesbian energy). I love annoying gay ppl. and I always will. Happy pride
@MagnoliaPearl
I do that too... sometimes it's important to recapture the magic of mundanity through those eyes. on my commute I heard some teen tourists enthusing about how Cool it is that some people ride the train everyday, and it made my life a little better

@justsayessence
some people donโt want their kids to see a lot of things that are benign (eg someone wearing religious clothing). nick is covered appropriately - demanding anything more than that is asking WAY too much from other people and curtailing their freedoms! :/ I think youโre wrong here
@BenInLDN
thanks to her friends for talking about her and sharing her memory. memorializing her life publicly is a beautiful gift for a friend that young people shouldnโt have to give. Iโm so sorry for her loved onesโ loss. trans women and girls deserve better.
she passed away around 1:30 today, without pain or fear, next to a sprig of her favorite food. who can ask for a better goodbye? please remember her as a chirping bird who loves to kiss
@on_peaches
in sigourneyโs post she said not to send hate, but in your reply you spoke ill of her competitor- I saw you in her replies earlier harassing her a bit, too. thatโs not fighting misogyny or supporting sigourney- thereโs a lot of better options for that! ๐

itโs not, itโs AngelMamii speaking flawless cantonese, disconcerting her husband, before she turns into a dove in a flash of light and flying out the window
berlin is like my home and it was one of their favorite clubs too. I know closing on a saturday is a big deal, but I am so glad that the team gets to rest and reflect on our friend who has passed.
letโs always stand up for black lesbians and keep dancing another day โค๏ธโ๐ฉนโค๏ธ
Darling Spike passed away on Monday night. He was my late mother's beloved pet bird and he was there for me for years. He was funny, smart, beautiful, and the best communicating bird I had. The words he knew showed his loving life: "I love you," "sweetie beet," "good bird."
@chrissychlapp
I started having allergic reactions but it turned out not to be my makeup- try patch testing your makeup products on your arm or neck to figure out which product is the problem child, and take a break for just a few days!
confession: I just canโt get into celery. She has nothing going for her: Nothing. People say sheโs an it girl but thatโs a lie. Celery has rich parents and thatโs how she got where she is today
just told my coworkers that carly rae jepsen is my favorite musician and had to explain that "no, the call me maybe girl wasn't a one hit wonder, she went on to become a critical darling and emotion was one of the top 5 pop albums of the decade!!!"
I think soon it will be very passรฉ to say โtouch grassโ. get used to the following alternatives
- log off (simple but a tad quotidian)
- go fly a kite (retro!)
- dc yourself (aggressive subtext)
- the sun doesnโt know you (Intense, but long to say)
please listen to a few minutes of Zolaโs speech on black trans womenโs importance and then use it to energize yourself as you find ways to materially support black trans women ๐๐ค๐
@forcedmasc
I genuinely believe that a lot of societal ills would disappear if people overcame their disgust response toward ugliness. โew that person is uglyโ segues right into โso iโll treat them badlyโ and itโs vile
my friend essence
@justsayessence
is a hardworking person and one of the best siblings I know! she is raising money to become the guardian of her younger sister- I contributed what I could and I hope you give what you can too ๐
got eliminated at bff last night โฆ went from bestie ๐ to worstie ๐
thanks to toto and vanity for having me, thanks to my PERFECT mentor irregular girl - so grateful to learn from you and strengthen our friendship. Iโm now able to say ... โIโm kinda good at dragโ ๐
