A Pride Month personal announcement from FYML’s redguard
Happy Pride Month! I have some personal news to share.
I’m proud to say that I am coming out as a trans woman. My name is Melinda. My pronouns are she/her/hers.
There’s a particular quote from Lenin that has always appealed to me. According to Romanian poet Valeriu Marcu, he said this during a conversation at a cafe in Zurich, Switzerland, shortly before the Russian Revolution began. Perhaps it’s apocryphal or embellished, but it has the flavor of something Lenin might have said:
“I don't know how radical you are, or how radical I am. I am certainly not radical enough. One can never be radical enough; that is, one must always try to be as radical as reality itself.”
I have always tried to hold myself to that standard politically. But personally it was another matter. Until last year, I hid the “radical reality” of who I am even from myself. But now I’m finally ready to share it with the world.
Several things converged last summer that forced me to seriously reckon with my gender after a lifetime of denial. That denial was rooted in an abused adolescent’s attempt to survive in a time and place where there were no words for what I was, and no chance of being accepted. I did such a thorough job of burying the real me that by the time I went to New York in my late teens and was befriended by trans revolutionary Leslie Feinberg, I had no clue that I was trans myself.
Flash forward three decades. What I realized in 2021, after several months of intense introspection and learning, was that I needed to acknowledge my truth – first to myself, and then to the world. I received advice from other trans people to take my time before coming out publicly. Everyone’s situation is different, but for me, this was good advice. It gave me the opportunity to begin transitioning, practice coming out to people one-on-one, and get some experience living in the world as my new, fuller self.
I hope that by speaking about this, it might help others like me to see that they are not too old to embrace their own “radical reality,” whatever that may be. More than ever, the world and especially the youth who are under attack need us to raise our voices.
A trans sister and comrade recently told me, “You picked a hell of a time to come out.” It’s true. The situation for trans, non-binary and gender-nonconforming people in the U.S. today is grim and increasingly dangerous. But for me, the hardest part has been resisting the urge to shout it from the rooftops during this awful “trans panic” and ongoing legislative attack on trans kids and youth.  
I know, too, that consciousness and acceptance of trans people varies in different parts of the world, for many reasons. But if you value my political writing, my activism, my solidarity with Donbass and other struggles, understand that none of that will change. 
It’s always been my conviction that the best way to grow solidarity is to show solidarity, and I believe that is true for LGBTQ2S people in the U.S. Our existence has been exploited by U.S. imperialism as a bludgeon against other countries, while the rulers here fight tooth and nail to deny us every hard-won right. 
The truth is, our struggles need each other. We are all part of the same historic, diverse, multifaceted global struggle of the working class against capitalism and imperialism.  I'm committed to doing whatever I can to help unite our class in the fight to elevate us all.
I’m very proud to be part of the Socialist Unity Party, a communist organization in the tradition of Sam Marcy, Dorothy Ballan and Leslie Feinberg, which has always been in the vanguard of trans liberation and LGBTQ2S solidarity. My name, pronouns and appearance may change, but my commitment to the revolutionary victory of the workers and oppressed will not.
Thank you for reading. 
Solidarity forever,
Melinda Butterfield (redguard / formerly Greg Butterfield)

At least I can be a little more cheerful knowing brendanicus is on hiatus since he was caught being stupid on main, and now zvaigd has deactivated after years of spewing misinfo and lies to an audience of willing idiots. Fingers crossed that apas, d2a, fyml, and their entire circus follows soon

A Trump supporter who shot an unarmed anti-fascist protester was released by Seattle, Washington police without charge. Meanwhile, at least six journalists arrested by the Washington, D.C. force face up to 10 years in prison and $25,000 fines on felony “riot” charges for covering protests at the presidential inauguration.
Massive protests were held throughout the country on January 20, the day on which Donald Trump was officially sworn in as president. In Seattle, the date coincided with a public speech by far-right provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, an editor of the racist website Breitbart.

Belle Madame cougar de 38 ans
https://www.mature-coquine.fr/femme-nue-cougar.html
Depuis toute jeune, j’ai toujours été très bonne à tout. Je suis une bonne amie, super intelligente. C’est tout à fait normal, que devenu plus âgée, j’attire tous les regards sur moi.Autrement dit, aujourd’hui, je suis encore meilleure qu’avant, enfin je crois. Je pense que c’est quand même vérifiable. Il suffit juste que tu aies envie de connaitre la fille que je suis. T’inquiète, il n’y a pas besoin de relation suivie pour nous.Tout ce qu’il faudrait, c’est juste une bonne soirée bien enflammée. Qu’est-ce que tu en dis ? Autant te dire une fois, que je suis vraiment bonne. Donc tu risques de bien apprécier le moment.Vu que moi-même je suis en manque de cela, je crois que nous deux on passera vraiment un excellent moment. Mais pour cela, il faudrait que tu veuilles toi aussi passer ce moment avec moi.Alors n’hésite pas à me répondre au plus vite. Pour ma part, j’ai hâte de te lire. https://urlz.fr/fYMl

North korea could bomb every country in the world and tankies like fyml could celebrate how they're "destroying imperialism".
