Note to USA folks, ❗trans folks especially❗.
A passport is:
- Fundamentally useful
- A federal ID
- Recognized in most state/local level contexts
- *You can change your gender marker on it through pure self ID, with nothing medical required*. "X" is an option. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/need-passport/selecting-your-gender-marker.html
- Normally 4-6 weeks to process (faster if u pay extra); that means if you apply for one this week, you easily get it before Jan 20.
- Lasts 10 years
Perhaps apply for one (or renew it, to reset yr 10 years) soon.

Please, please if you live in the US immediately stop using period and pregnancy trackers.
Don't put in another piece of data. Delete it.

@lochnix If you don't have it in you now, it's your turn to rest and rebuild. I'm sidelined from protesting because of terrible PTSD, and I do feel useless and empty at the moment. But we all have other skills. Can you support the panicky and suicidal with kind messages online? Plan a game night to help other protesters meet and recover and get a break? Cook a struggling person a big dish of pasta?
If you were out marching, and talking to politicians, you're prob already a decent person. The way you spend your energy now *will* be a force for good in the world, even if it doesn't feel like a direct hit on some Nazi's nose.
@holyramenempire @lochnix @quite1enough It is a good thing to give your number to your neighbors, meet them and make some time for them. They (or you) may be targets soon, and the community we build now, will be stronger the sooner we make it.
@alice You as well. Lets try to make tomorrow better.

“They want you to feel powerless and surrender and let them trample everything and you are not going to let them. You are not giving up, and neither am I. The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything and everything we can save is worth saving.”

@broadwaybabyto Wearing a mask in public used to be sketchy, now people just look at the like, ugh. You don't need to have your face on cameras all day

A simple & powerful act of resistance is to PUT ON A MASK.
Many folks couldn’t wait to abandon COVID mitigations and policies - tossing people like me to the wayside and making society completely unsafe.
We already have mask bans in the U.S. Normalize community care now!
@littletranspunk I don't mind at all and I will be working on some more recent and updated things soon. This has been very important to me for a long time. I know a lot about random internet security, though I am not a professional. It is just passion.
@littletranspunk I hope I didn't come across thinking that income was your thing. I didn't think so at all
@hilljam this is real!

I want to be sympathetic but the current round of "we lost because you suck" is just tedious, pathetic, and hard to make excuses for. And that's just here on Mastodon between people who seem generally pretty decent overall.
