Section 230 is a law passed in the 90s that gave birth to the modern internet. Without it, the internet as we know it quite literally would not exist.
Gutting part of Section 230 is why there was a tumblr purge in 2018 which led to a domino effect of making the internet worse. This was written in SESTA/FOSTA.
Senators Dick Durbin (D) and Lindsey Graham (R) are introducing a bill that would “sunset” Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Section 230 is known as the “26 words that created the Internet.” It essentially allows websites to host users’ speech and engage in good faith moderation without being held legally liable for every post users make. Without it, platforms would have to choose between ducking lawsuits by pre-censoring "controversial" content or abandoning moderation altogether. Smaller, decentralized platforms like Bluesky, Mastodon, Signal, and Reddit would likely be tanked by lawsuits, while Big Tech companies like Meta, Google, and X would survive, solidifying their monopolies
There would be no more organizing protests like Tesla Takedown online, no more posting about abortion resources or trans healthcare, and no more independent media. With the Trump admin escalating attacks on immigrants, students, journalists, and protestors, we can’t afford to lose online organizing spaces and access to information. Tell lawmakers: hands off Section 230! (link below contains petition and more details on the law)
(I know it seems like pressuring congress doesn't work, but this is how KOSA was defeated 2 sessions in a row. IT WORKS.)
T Journey Journal Entry #3
Time Since Start: 5 days
Oily. I am nothing but oily. Like at this point I better be careful before the US tries to invaide me for “freedom”((: Usually if my mental health gets bad I know I can go one day without a shower and my hair and skin will feel fine. But now? I’m not sure that’s possible. There’s so much oil on my skin and face and hair that I’m sure later down the line I’ll have to shower twice a day. Not in the sense that I’m complaining by any means, I knew this was gonna happen I just didn’t know it would be the first thing to happen on T. Haven’t noticed much else besides continuing to feel more awake and all that. Although, have been waaaaay hungrier as of late, much to the detriment of the ingridient house Mamá and Mr. Tennessee have cultivated((:
Speaking of, hopefully talking about Mamá won’t be a part of every entry, but it does remind me of a comment she made at Christmas. Mamá being herself means Christmas is usually filled with more practical gifts, socks, chones, so on so forth, and one of those gifts were shampoo and conditioner. It’s a brand that works well for my hair but she threw in a comment about how my younger sister (who got the same type of shampoo/conditioner) and I had “gross oily hair”. Kinda threw me for a loop bc I’ve never heard her talk ab any of us like that. She meant it as a joke or throwaway comment but that was just, uncalled for.
T Journal Entry #5
Days since start: 22
Today was the first day I noticed a change in body hair, my arm hair is thicker. It’s not like corse or anything and it’s just the ones on my forearms but god I almost cried this morning. My body hair is legit black but it’s always been so thin no one ever sees it, I hope people start seeing it now:) Other than that I can feel my voice dropping. It’s happening slowly, but it’s happening nonetheless. I can tell it’s happening most often whenever I sing, which is cool bc it makes singing some of my favorite songs easier:D Still need to learn how to pitch down for Chappell Roan though((:
On other exciting news, there’s a cougar who’s flirting with me. Like, deadass older than my mom type cougar, throwing big hints that she wants me. Part of me is being a little narcissist and not complaining. The other part of me is asking why she’s flirting with a man who’s closer in age to her teenage son than her, but I fear the narcissist is winning. Thankfully, I am a man of many hoes and there’s this really sweet dude who’s like, so so sooooo down bad for me it’s damn near adorable. Like “awwww you want me to choke you and call you a good boy so baaaad<33” type adorable. I’m just glad I have sexual relations where I can be more dom, I’ve always felt more comfortable like that:))
You might find something like this on your property or along public forest trails. It’s about the same size and shape as a ketchup packet and smells like rotten fish. Believe it or not, this little packet protects you, your pets, and your family. The USDA drops these in areas (including Hamilton County) where raccoon-variant rabies has been known to occur. Raccoons find the packet and eat the contents, and it provides them with immunity to rabies. If you find one, simply leave it where it is, or, if it’s in an area accessible to a pet or child, just put on a pair of gloves and move it. Don’t worry, though— even if it was handled by a human or pet, it doesn’t pose any danger besides an unpleasant odor.

No because let’s talk about the fact the TERFs don’t want you to heal. Because if you heal then you won’t be the perfect little victim for them to leverage against trans women and the ~dangerous dangerous men~
Let’s talk ab the fact that TERFs only see AMAB on AFAB SA as real SA and when you try to change that dynamic at all (COCSA, Queer SA, etc.) all their arguments go out the window
Let’s talk about the fact that they don’t even care about the general wellbeing of women and only focus on keeping women hurt and scared for what? What do they get at the end of this fear mongering? It’s like cartoon villains who want to “destroy the world” and don’t have a plan for what to do after
TERFs want you misrebile, they want you hurt, they want to use you and your trauma as chess pieces to a “greater end” that doesn’t even exist
Most effective way to combat them is to have joy and heal. To live a good life. To not get sucked in the fear and misery because in the end it leads to nothing. Stay Trans, Stay Happy, Stay Safe
this is your thanksgiving reminder that the chinook tribe is still fighting for federal recognition, which means they are unable to access programs and resources. please take some time today to sign their petition and donate if you’re able to. and if you live in washington or oregon please write to your elected officials.

i feel like we as a digital society have forgotten the important rules of the internet
Don't feed the trolls
Never give out personal information
Anonymity is the best defense
Don't click suspicious links
Don't click popups and ads
Just because it's written doesn't mean it's true
You are responsible for your own experience
There is porn of everything, act accordingly
"its not safe for me to transition right now" girl have you read the news its not safe to drink milk or eat medium rare cheeseburgers or go in public without a respirator anymore stop making excuses lets get you some estrogen
