very funny that i still think of tumblr as being relaxing because sometimes I’ll come on this site and my eyes will immediately be assaulted by a string of words that even monkeys with typewriters would be sent to hell for and I’ll just have to deal with that

I just saw a Twitter thread talking about transphobic legislation in Florida and the persecution of trans folks in general. There was a discussion about the state trying to forcibly detransition trans youth, and prevent both medical and social transition. Someone asked how the government could possibly regulate social transition, because "it's not like the government can regulate people's clothing choices."
I don't want to hate on this person, because I know that you don't know what you aren't taught, but it's just another demonstration of how vital it is for queer history to be shared.
Anti-cross-dressing laws exist to this day, and were actively enforced in the United States within living memory. [source] The Stonewall Riots happened in direct response to a police raid on the Stonewall Inn--and the police were raiding, as they often did, with the specific intent to arrest people wearing clothing that didn't "match their sex." [source]
Many schools and workplaces already police the way people are allowed to dress and present themselves, perfectly legally. There are endless articles discussing the ways Black people have their hair policed, people of color are targeted over their cultural clothing, women and girls have their clothing regulated by sexist dress codes, and the way trans people of all genders get targeted by strict uniform policies. Here's an article from 2020 that also talks about the need for legal protection of Black hairstyles in schools & the workplace. This is an article about a March 2022 dress code controversy over a nonbinary teacher. I could easily find more stories like this by quickly browsing Google.
I don't intend to panic-monger, but the government absolutely could get to the point where it's regulating queer people's clothing choices, because they have done it before. We have come incredibly far in an incredibly short amount of time, and there are government officials still in power who remember, and miss, the times when they could have us arrested for not dressing according to our assigned sex.
It's not some vague "what if?!" scenario, it's something that has very real, very scary precedent in the United States legal system.

[Image Description: Two photos from an opened sketchbook. The photos are taken where the sketchbook is vertical. The first is of a page that has washitape lining the two pages. "LOVE" is written in between the two pages in red. All around the word are various written out quotes, and pieces of paper that either have quotes or song titles. There are squares made out of paint chips as well. The second page is also lined in washitape. Along the right side, vertically, HOPE is written in orange. There are various quotes written on this as well, some written on colorful pieces of paper that have been pasted onto the page. There are various circle and heart cutouts placed in empty spaces on the pages. /end ID]

[Image Description: Three photos of sketchbook pages that have cut up paint chips in them, with quotes written next to them. On the first page: Next to a dark-reddish purple the quote reads, "Judas: Why did you me good enough...so that you could've loved me? Stephen Adly Guirgis". Next to a orangish-red it reads "And love isn't a fact. It's a hunch at first. And then later it's a series of decisions, a lifetime of decisions. That's love. Welcome to Night Vale". Next to a dark blueish green the quote reads, "Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story. There is not other version of this story. Richard Siken". Next to a dark pink the quote reads, "ORESTES: This was always going to happen. She's been dead since the beginning. Aeschylus". On the second page: Next to a dark yellow, "People speak of hope as if it is this delicate, ephemeral thing made of whispers and spider's webs. It's not. Hope has dirt on her knuckles, the grit of cobblestones in her hair, and just spat out a tooth as she rises for another go. @CrowsFault". Next to a brighter orangey pink, "Is that all you want to be? Liked? Wouldn't you rather be passionately and voraciously desired? Margaret Atwood". Next to a blue-green color the quote reads (with each sentence alternating in color as if it's a conversation), "What were you before you met me? I think I was drowning. And what are you now? Water. Ocean Vuong". Next to a mellow yellow, "And yet if a bee lands on my shoulder // I think I should let it stay a while, let // the wind, thick with honey, caress us. Ieva Dapkevicius". On the third page: next to a light dusty pink, "I know what I want is impossible. If I can make my language flat enough, exact enough, if I can rinse each sentence clean enough [...] if I can give myself enough white space, maybe I could do it. I could tell you this story while walking out of this story. I could - it all could - just disappear. Maggie Nelson". /end ID]
i'm sick so it's craft time <3 each quote is matched w the color it reminded me of the most out of my recently acquired lowe's paint chips

[Image Description: Two photos taken from a sketchbook. The first image is writing in blue marker. it says, "let me stay tender-hearted" in light blue, and descending it says, "despite" in all caps, three times. Each "despite"is a darker blue than the first. The second photo has two cut out pictures pasted into the notebook, one is of a sunset sky, mostly orange, and the other is a cowboy on a horse, wrangling a cow. The sunset is in the left top corner, and the cowboy is in the bottom right corner. In the top right corner it says, in brown-red marker, "the undone cowboy writes to his sweet heart". And it says, "silas denver melvin" in the bottom left corner. /end ID]
