okay, I’ll bite. What’s media

media is when one guy is chasing another with a knife but a tv camera zooms in so it looks like the guy with the knife is being attacked by the guy who’s actually running away. that’s media.

Christ that’s fucked up. Is anyone doing anything about this?

YOU KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS

Discussions of trans women in sports often focus on elite/professional sports which honestly I find it hard to care about but the more common scenario of “we’re going to legally ban a high school girl from playing sports with her friends because she’s trans” is just profoundly evil

i remember when utah's (republican) governor ended up vetoing a law banning transgender students from playing high school sports when he looked at the numbers, and there were only four trans students in the state playing sports at all. he released a clumsily worded but surprisingly compassionate statement about the decision.

I must admit, I am not an expert on transgenderism. I struggle to understand so much of it, and the science is conflicting. When in doubt, however, I always try to err on the side of kindness, mercy, and compassion. I also try to get proximate, and I am learning so much from our transgender community. They are great kids who face enormous struggles. Here are the numbers that have most impacted my decision: 75,000, 4, 1, 86 and 56.

75,000 high school kids participating in high school sports in Utah.

4 transgender kids playing high school sports in Utah.

1 transgender student playing girls sports.

86% of trans youth reporting suicidality.

56% of trans youth having attempted suicide.

Four kids and only one of them playing girls sports. That’s what all of this is about. Four kids who aren’t dominating or winning trophies or taking scholarships. Four kids who are just trying to find some friends and feel like they are a part of something. Four kids trying to get through each day. Rarely has so much fear and anger been directed at so few. I don’t understand what they are going through or why they feel the way they do. But I want them to live.

of course, it didn't amount to much. they overrode his veto. it's just so cartoonishly evil. an entire state's political body so desperate to terrorize this one little trans girl.

I’m making a map/flowchart for the spamton sweepstakes website

I’m doing this because I plan on guiding my friend through the website for the first time and I think it would be easier to have everything in front of me so I don’t forget anything. problem is, I’m having a hard time connecting everything that I know is there, and suspect I may be missing something as well. hope this chart makes as much sense to you all as it does to me! I will definitely be prettying it up later for other peoples sake. let me know if im missing something, or if the answer to these white ovals genuinely is just “you have to be aware of them and type them in yourself”

when i was a kid there was this guy in my neighborhood named Jerry. he was 100 years old for my entire childhood. his house was up on a hill and he had a big porch he sat on all day from sun up to sundown. his front door was always open if it wasn't too cold out and there was a big old fridge/freezer right inside where he kept orange crush in glass bottles and freeze-pops.

kids were allowed to walk right into his house and get treats from the fridge but the rule is we had to sit on the porch while we ate the popsicles or drank the pop and this is how he got us to listen to him talk about random stuff all day.

if parents needed to find us bc we failed to come home when we were supposed to they called him and he could send other kids out looking for us. it'd be like in the creek some other 8 year old would tell you "hey your mom called Jerry. youre supposed to be home."

if you were home sick from school and your parents worked he'd watch you for free & everyone looked out for him. i spent a lot of days napping on his couch when i was little.

idk i know i couldn't be a full-time parent so that's my ideal role in a community one day. old guy babysitter with a porch.

it's literally so easy not to spread or participate in harassment campaigns against trans women. just don't. try that for a while.

guy who sees an angry mob pursuing a single woman in the streets with pitchforks and torches : well I guess I just have to join them in case they're right this time

Every day we wake up to the same reality: destroyed homes, no safety, no stability, and needs that keep growing.
People think the pain paused… but for us, it never d
id.

Even with a so-called “ceasefire,” nothing has really stopped.
The explosions, the drones, the fear — the violations never ended.
And our suffering definitely d
idn’t.

We are so grateful to everyone who supported us while my sister was in the hospital. Thanks to your prayers and kindness, she is finally home and slowly getting better.🙏💗

But now, we are facing a desperate situation. Our landlord has given us only two weeks to pay the rent of $1,500 or we will have nowhere to go. The weather is bitterly cold, my elderly parents cannot withstand it, and my sister is still too weak to face any stress.😔💔

We don't know what else to do, and we are turning to you with hope in our hearts. Every single donation, no matter how small, will help us keep a roof over our heads and give my family safety and warmth. Please, help us today , your support can save us from the streets and give us hope in this very difficult time.🙏😔💔
