Currently neck deep in the overhaul of Three Ways, catch up with the posts and a short story on my site tmshannonauthor.com
- there's so many people who are pushing newsom with this kind of, sick satisfaction. that they're upsetting trans people, thinking they can extort us into voting for a candidate that will be actively harmful towards us with the threat of fascism looming overhead.
- it's been just over 7 months since I broke my ankle and I'm finally able to jog down stairs and walk at gay miles per hour again (w not too much pain!!) 🥲🥲🥲
- "Though Stonewall became globally known, Compton's shows us the truth: trans women of colour have always been at the heart of queer liberation."
- A future that includes Black trans women is a future rooted in dignity and truth. Their right to exist is absolute. Ending injustice begins by honoring that truth and refusing to let it be ignored.
- Black trans women deserve economic stability and opportunity. Poverty is not a personal failure but the outcome of discrimination. Fair access to jobs, education, and resources is a matter of justice.
- Injustice thrives on misinformation. Lies about trans lives fuel fear and justify harm. Challenging these narratives is essential to protecting Black trans women and affirming their humanity.
- Injustice exists when Black trans women are excluded from conversations about justice itself. Movements that ignore them reinforce harm, even while claiming progress. True justice cannot be selective or conditional.
- SFT, so true! Let's stay focused, beyond all distractions! #ReleaseAllEpsteinFiles unredacted! #Impeach, #Remove + #Jail the treasonous adjudicated-felon-in-chief pedophile-protector-in-chief ConDon + all his enablers! We #Resist 🗽💙🍀🌏🙏🌻🫂🌥️⛅🦋🐝🐦🐿️🌈💕
- the transgender urge to leave humanity behind and become a cryptid
- yeah they're running the same playbook on autistic and adhd ppl as they did on trans ppl. if only the shitrag guardian had stood up for trans kids instead of publishing medical disinformation, paranoid conspiracies, and an editorial advocating for conversion practices.
- Fascinating study, casting much doubt on the ubiquity of the "overdiagnosis" myth www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
- Injustice exists when institutions refuse to learn. Schools, workplaces, and healthcare systems must change to meet the needs of Black trans women, not force them to adapt to harmful environments.
- I wish I could meet my queer ancestors and show them what we have now. it kinda still sucks but omfg if only they could see the blessings we DO have
- Centering Black trans women strengthens everyone. Their liberation challenges systems that harm many others too. When the most marginalized are protected, society becomes more honest, compassionate, and fair for all.
- The medical communities, bowing down to pedophiles, who are citing the “safety“ of the very children they intend to harm with cis supremacist rhetoric that flies in the face of science, logic and reason. Should tell you the very real danger, trans people are in.

- Glitter is just gay sand
- Black trans women deserve lives filled with safety, softness, and possibility. They should be able to walk through the world without fear, knowing their existence is not up for debate and their presence does not require justification or defense.
- Black trans women live at the intersection of racism and transphobia, where harm multiplies. Discrimination limits access to housing, healthcare, and safety. These barriers are not accidents they are built systems that continue to fail and endanger them.

- Black trans women deserve peace in their daily lives. Peace in their homes, relationships, and bodies. The constant pressure to explain or defend themselves is a burden no one should carry just to be treated as human.

- This Admin so heinous. I lost so many friends, Black + White, Spring 1980, LA. I think about that all the time. So many became so thin all of a sudden. First person I knew who developed AIDs was Black. We were gonna meet up, then he was in hospital for 2-3 months. That summer, SO many gay pals sick.
- aids.gov has erased all information of its existence😡 so please don’t forget that National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day is on February 7th!

- Absolutely loathe what this social climate is doing to trans people.
- google dot com special gay tax rates google dot com how to file tax exemption for homosexuality google dot com Alvin and the chipmunks lore explained
- Omg Queer Eye working with this autistic person in this episode
- like the Stonewall riot was very important, not for what happened, not for who threw a brick or a bottle or if Stormé DeLarverie punched a cop or whatever but as a spark and a crystallization for gay organizing, like if Stonewall had been it there'd be no LGBT rights its the start not the end
- i muted the gay hockey show but it still shows up on my tl. please. ive had enough.

- People learning that TONS of pro wrestling fans are libs and lefties tonight once again, I see
- It didn't really come across in the anime, but I love the implication the Rock is a Lady's Modesty manga gives in the Bacchus arc that Rock Lady gave a room full of boyband fans their gay awakenings simultaneously with the power of Rock
- For containing your trans friend when they start acting out
- sometimes i remember the kingdom hearts fanfic i wrote in high school, where Marluxia is heteroflexible in that hes mostly straight but hes gay for Vexen...and then i think about how im Homoflexible in that im sapphic but i am obsessed with one dude (my husband)
- Casual reminder that the creator of The Annoying Orange is braver than ANY ICE agent thanks to her coming out as trans in a Smosh video.

- "yo this email shows epstein was violent about trans people" "heh, this proves trans men are privileged" "what? it implies intense violence against both trans women and trans men" "i can't believe trans men are now making it about them" fucking DARVO bullshit come on
- Melissa McCoul filed a lawsuit alleging Texas A&M violated her First Amendment and due process rights after firing her for teaching that transgender people exist.
- When it comes to my transition I find myself filled with bitterness, especially when I see how other trans people seem to have experienced their transition.

- I don't know why it's taken me this long but: growing up in the 80s and 90s sucked. Especially if you were queer or neurodivergent. I remember sitting through well-intentioned hour long lectures about bad things That Were Happening to me but I'd already internalized that Authority Figures 1/🧵
- Made it to Hawaii 🌈
- At the risk of activating the "if I scream at you enough surely you will change your mind" liberals. There is not one goddamn reason for me and other trans people to vote for a candidate that doesn't proactively defend trans rights and/or go on the offensive. No votes for collaborators.

- Streak? LOL it’s purposeful and to me it is a judgement on Gay actors. Think of the irony of trying to tell compassionate Queer stories asking for acceptance yet thru his casting he doesn’t have any. Gets me pissed off.
- I have finished the 93k word second draft of my gay basketball romance! If you like Heated Rivalry, and you like challenging religious dogma, than I think you would enjoy it. I will be looking for beta readers soon! #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #SportsRomance
