Trump blames Synagogue shooting on the Synagogue for not having “better protection”. You know, instead of the white supremacist shooter who yelled “All Jews must die!” with an assault weapon and killed jewish people. 

Lets not forget last year he called the nazis in Charlottesville “very fine people”.

Looking after his own kind.

Fucking vote. Go out and vote. 

This is absolutely disgusting and horrifying. Try your absolute best to vote and please protect Jewish people.

Here’s a list of Jewish-specific mental health resources, because I know how taxing this is on us.

dear americans who can vote.

hello friendly trans english boy hitting you here. you may have seen that president trump is considering making the gender on your birth certificate UNCHANGEABLE from birth. meaning trans people cannot adjust the sex to their correct one.

this is a big risk for any trans person across the world but ESPECIALLY the ones in america. it creates problems with them going into their correct toilet (their gendered one), same-sex groupings on school trips, same-sex schooling and so many other things. this is a massive problem.

if you are of voting age PLEASE the trans community URGE you to vote against this law. a trans person should be able to adjust the sex on their birth certificate, it is a human right for EVERYONE of every single race or grouping to be accepted. this is discriminatory. keep trans rights in tact. help trans youth. they need you.

thank you.

I may not be American, but please PLEASE VOTE.

god this is a big ask but I really wish there were like….. a site where you could plug in your state/district/whatever and tick some boxes on issues you prioritize and then the site would give you a rundown of the potential candidates in your area and where they stand on those issues in like….. clean simple bullet points. gimme the cliffnotes, I literally do not have the time or energy to comb through god knows how many articles and shit to figure out who to support, just tell me what their stance is on X, Y, and Z, and that’s gonna have to be enough.

There’s BallotReady!

It goes through who’s on your ballot and explains things like that based on your address. 

this is really great. it gives you bullet points on what each candidate has said and done on each issue.

very illuminating, frankly, seeing the candidate’s own words and actions. for instance, under ‘defense/veterans’ the republican candidates almost always say something about a well-funded military, and the democrats almost always say something about getting veterans the medical care they need. makes it pretty obvious that republicans don’t care about soldiers once they’re done with them.

Vote411 is another good one.

Neat

today is the last day to contribute to the uk government’s consultation on the gender recognition act

notabuddhist:

you have until 11pm to have your say in support of trans rights in the uk

https://www.stonewall.org.uk/our-work/campaigns/come-out-trans-equality-0

stonewall have done a great job of making responding to the consultation easy and it’s a quick process to go through the form on their website. 

i am going to copy/paste directly from innesmck on twitter who put it as succinctly as possible:

(the images above say:

right now the process for gender recognition:

  • is exensive
  • requires medical transition
  • excludes many many trans people
  • can be blocked entirely if you’re married
  • requires providing evidence so a panel of cis judges can decide whether you’re transitioned enough

we need a gender recognition process which is:

  • free
  • straightforward
  • dignified
  • believes trans people
  • requires no medical documents
  • includes trans young people
  • includes non-binary genders)

if you want to be a good ally, this is one way to help. add your voice. don’t delay; do it immediately. tell other people and make sure they do it immediately too.
