#or politics

Want some good news? Here's an article from the March issue of the Southeast Examiner, a local Portland OR paper. It contains a regular column by our state rep, Bob Nosse, with the following paragraph:

"No bills that target transgender people for discrimination will even get a hearing [in the current legislative session]. Those were sent to the committee that I chair, where they were quietly allowed to die without a hearing."

This is good news from trans allies within the LGBTQ+ community and OR legislature (Nosse's husband of many years is often mentioned in his columns).

I love that you’re being a very level headed voice of excitement and reason in the wake of EVERYTHING, but also I feel like you just said recently you were stepping away from politics? Am I imagining that or did you decide to come back?

Aha. I did say it. I keep trying to do it.

And yet.

AND. FUCKING. YET. Things keep fucking happening. No more. Nobody wants any more.

Can't leave cause protocol so just standing in a parking lot, waiting for something to happen

Trump voters on tiktok are EXTREMELY mad about the following:

They just found out what tariffs are

They just found out what denaturalization is

They (particularly black and Hispanic trump voters) just found out that other trump voters are racist

Leftists and liberals don't want to be their friends (they are furious about this)

Leftists keep telling them they hope they get what they voted for (they are really mad about this too)

Make the most of the next two months

Get all your vaccines

Travel while we have a functioning DOT

Read and buy books on feminism, anti-racism, pro-lgbt

Attend drag shows

Don't skip any of your classes

Read and buy history books

Find your out-of-state networks

Learn to carry cash

Get birth control solutions

Support the Biden/Harris administration

Postpone large purchases and save money

Be careful of what you say online, like un-ambiguous attacks against the incoming administration, especially in spaces that contain your full name or personal information

Feel free to add on.

if you're feeling powerless right now—and god knows I am—here's a reminder you can donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds, the Trans Law Center, Gaza Soup Kitchen, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, and hundreds of other charities that will work to mitigate the damage that has been and will continue to be inflicted

life continues. we still have the capacity to do good, important work. that matters
