Hello! I still badly need work in narrative design or game writing etc. I’ve been in games for 20 years and I’m responsible for the mobile smash hit Lily’s Garden. I will take on full-time or contract work but I really need to pick something up soon. Please get in touch if you have/know of something
This is why I was so glad when Durbin announced he was not running for reelection. The party needs fresh, energized ideas.
I'm not in her district, but I was really pulling for Kat.
Zendaya and Hunter Schafer walking hand-in-hand down a white aisle scattered with flower petals. Zendaya, on the left, is wearing a relaxed, oversized grey suit over a patterned button-down shirt, paired with dark sneakers. Hunter, on the right, is wearing a dramatic, light blue draped two-piece gown with sheer, skin-toned paneling and high slits. They are framed by dense, romantic floral arches filled with pink, peach, and white roses.
God damn Hunter Schafer....
Worth the effort.
designated hate group—the Society for Evidence-based Gender Medicine, or SEGM. The organization has been denounced for promoting conversion therapy practices and manufacturing the scientific facade for the Trump Administration’s state-sanctioned war on transgender children.
Please consider sending a letter to tell the Pediatric Academic Societies to remove a hate group-affiliated panel from their meeting.
The conference’s sole panel dedicated to transgender health care will be stacked exclusively with academics who have been tied to a Southern Poverty Law Center-
This is untrue … “newsroom leaders have spent significant time engaging with critics”
The nyt has spent significant time dismissing and silencing it critics.
It now engages in full-on political ops, run by its pr office, that is aimed at intimidating its critics
Of course he did.
"The NYT again failed to take responsibility for years of coverage so inaccurate and biased the Trump administration, the Supreme Court, and lawmakers in states considering anti-trans legislation have cited it multiple times to justify unprecedented laws and rulings against trans Americans” - GLAAD
Yes! And Alpha Flight to a lesser degree.
Just a quick reminder folks that I am moving out a bunch of old Flip-Mats from my collection and you can pick them up for cheap. Plenty of buy-now options left and quite a few auctions still at minimum or no bid!

That sucks.
I've got plenty of experience with them (most of it problematic), but for the life of me I can't figure out why they would do that. They were pretty good about updating my name in their system.
"He's a man with a woman's shadow
He's a man out in West L.A
And I hate to tell you this
But I love the way you kissed
Him yesterday
He never gets the girl he wants
Because the girl inside him haunts
The living room
And the dressing room"
I guess I should have realized sooner why I liked the song.
they are calling it the perfect summary of the "keep men out of women's sports" movement
Cute necklace too!
The most telling part of this is that questions about the gender binary and sexuality are not new.
People (Western people in this example) have been talking about gender/sexuality for several millennia. (Not that the ancient Greeks were paragons of virtue) They can't pretend these ideas are new.
I saw him open for R.E.M. in 1989 and I've been hooked since.
As a transgender man told lawmakers, “Every single day when I’m out in public, I have to decide: Do I feel like going to jail today, or do I feel like being attacked"
For a Boise family of medical providers, Idaho criminal trans bathroom ban was the last straw This year, Idaho Legislature approved trans bathroom ban, forcing teachers to out trans kids to parents, and re-banning LGBTQ+ pride flag displays by government
The Devitts have seen the Idaho Legislature and the governor approve a wave of anti-LGBTQ+ bills in recent years. Michael and Dr. Angie Devitt, both medical professionals, watched their trans daughter, Eve, testify against a bill years ago that outlawed gender-affirming care for minors. But this year’s criminal transgender bathroom ban — described by advocates as the most extreme in the nation for extending to private businesses — was the couple’s last straw. So early this month, Michael Devitt notified patients that his practice, Focus Physical Therapy, would shut down at the end of August as his family prepared to move out of Idaho. “Obviously, this law is a disaster for families like ours,” he wrote in a letter. “We can no longer take a road trip across our beloved state, or even enjoy a family night out at a restaurant, or a movie, without running the risk of Eve being charged and sent to a prison merely for using the facilities.”
A family of doctors in Idaho with a teenage trans daughter describes their decision to close their practice and leave the state after the governor signed a law last month threatening her with a felony charge and five years in prison if she uses any women's restroom

It is very appalling and sometimes quite frightening to see how trans-exclusionary feminists have allied with rightwing attacks on gender. The anti-gender ideology movement is not opposing a specific account of gender, but seeking to eradicate "gender" as a concept or discourse, a field of study, an approach to social power. Sometimes they claim that "sex" alone has scientific standing, but other times they appeal to divine mandates for masculine domination and difference. They don't seem to mind contradicting themselves. The Terfs (trans exclusionary radical feminists) and the so-called gender critical writers have also rejected the important work in feminist philosophy of science showing how culture and nature interact (such as Karen Barad, Donna Haraway, EM Hammonds or Anne Fausto-Sterling) in favor of a regressive and spurious form of biological essentialism. So they will not be part of the coalition that seeks to fight the anti-gender movement. The anti-gender ideology is one of the dominant strains of fascism in our times. So the Terfs will not be part of the contemporary struggle against fascism, one that requires a coalition guided by struggles against racism, nationalism, xenophobia and carceral violence, one that is mindful of the high rates of femicide throughout the world, which include high rates of attacks on trans and genderqueer people. The anti-gender movement circulates a spectre of "gender" as a force of destruction, but they never actually read any works in gender studies. Quick and fearful conclusions take the place of considered judgments. Yes, some work on gender is difficult and not everyone can read it, so we have to do better in reaching a broader public. As important as it is, however, to make complex concepts available to a popular audience, it is equally important to encourage intellectual inquiry as part of public life. Unfortunately, we are living in anti-intellectual times, and neo-fascism is becoming more normalized.

He added: "I believe very strongly that women's wards should be for biological women. What do we do about tha biological female who is a trans man, looks, sounds, presents, lives, his life as a man is biologically female? We wouldn't put him on a women's ward. That would be degrading for him and humiliating And cruel.
Wes streeting admits what he is doing is "humilating and cruel".
But only for trans men (that look and sound man enough).
Perfectly happy to inflict cruelty and humiliation on trans women.

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than:
Tesla
Southwest
Disney
Live Nation
HP
United
PayPal
CVS Health
Palantir
Citigroup
PG&E
3M
That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax.
It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.
Guster at Gallagher Way this summer? I'm off to secure my tickets! @brianrosenworcel.bsky.social
Eric Swawell all over the news. Epstein files, not so much! Gonzalez not at all. Should they be mentioned in the same sentence, or same point? Yes!! All 3 are related, in they involve abuse.
A screenshot of a Hollywood Reporter politics news article. The headline reads, "Dave Chappelle Knocks Republican Party for “Weaponized” Transgender Jokes: “That’s Not What I Was Doing”" The subheadline states, "After being called out for transphobic jokes, the superstar comedian told NPR that Lauren Boebert and other Republicans are politicizing his humor." Below the text is a photo of Chappelle in a black tuxedo speaking at a podium, with a caption noting he is accepting the President's Award at the 2025 NAACP Image Awards.
No, that's exactly what Chappelle was doing and it's why trans people criticized him for doing it.
"I can't believe they would say most of the same things I was saying on a bigger stage". What a load of bullshit.
