If you – as a cis person – ever find yourself litigating with a trans person whether something technically counts as deadnaming or not, just stop. https://hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/111659816370739044

I have been offline for the past few hours and really do not appreciate how @mekkaokereke has used his platform to dogpile me for a pretty banal objection to something he said.

Do better.

@mekkaokereke You invoked transphobia in the first place?? Can you show me where I said to be polite to racists? Or where I cried? Are you just here to demean and diminish trans people who aren’t useful to your cause?

@jenigrant @mekkaokereke You’ve been out for two months, get back to me when you’ve been harassed out of a job and then we’ll litigate what is and isn’t transphobia

@emilygorcenski oh so like a right to bear gays

I for one am shocked – shocked! – that cramming another lane onto the 101 while getting rid of the inner shoulders didn’t work https://sf.streetsblog.org/2023/04/12/not-a-surprise-101-freeway-widening-shows-negative-results/

Senator Feinstein has missed 60 of 82 votes this year. Her absence from the Judiciary Committee has put an indefinite hold on all judicial nominations.

She must resign, and Newsom must appoint a replacement who would not seek a full term, like Barbara Boxer or Jerry Brown. https://jezebel.com/dianne-feinstein-is-mia-and-her-absence-is-holding-up-1850323457
