Okay just to recap on pride month the supreme Court decided it that A affirmative action meant to undo the systemic effects of racism is illegal because it is a form of discrimination and B discriminating against LGBT people is legal so long as you are doing it for religious reasons
Two days into pride month and some nut job vandalized the family services building for flying a pride flag
Well it's about that time again and conservatives have been waiting the entirety of military appreciation month for it
That one time of the year where they all cry about how there is no military appreciation month but there's an entire pride month
One thing to remember as Republicans continue to try and ban drag queens is that they still can't tell the difference between drag queens crossdressers and trans people
A perfect example of conservatives calling the LGBT groomers actually just being bigotry it's not about protecting children it's about making sure children don't know that they can be LGBT

INDIANA IS WORKING ON ITS OWN “DON’T SAY GAY” BILL
as someone who lives in indiana this TERRIFIES me.

I feel like US conservatives went from a 3/4 to 7 on transgender people over the course of a year and a half.
Basically, if this passes, the state Florida will take away your children if you are transgender or one of your children is transgender (as the bill notes it will take away cis children if they have a trans sibling).
Absolutely monstrous.
Sex resides within the reproductive system
Gender resides within the nervous system
The nervous system
Bad news about Andrew tate he does not have cancer he was making it up for pity points, also he's a pedophile
Here are two fun facts for you
The legal definition of insanity is one's inability to distinguish reality from fantasy and according to the DSM-5 trans people exist and it is not a mental illness
In short if someone says science say trans people do not exist or that it's a mental illness they are insane
On the other hand if all they say is that they don't think trans people are real they're just a standard bigot
Let's take a second to appreciate there are now studies proving that for many work sectors a 4-day work week is better in every measurable way

A report on transgender women athletes in elite sport has found that if UCI [Union Cycliste Internationale] rules are adhered to, there is currently no substantial evidence of any biological advantages for trans women competing in elite women’s sport.
It found there was little evidence that biomedical factors related to male puberty such as lung size, bone density and hip-to-knee joint angle predict an unfair advantage. But some evidence that social factors like nutrition, training and access to equipment do.
These are just some of the key findings listed in an 86-page report titled Transgender Women Athletes and Elite Sport: A Scientific Review, which was published in late 2022 and commissioned by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES), an ethical sport advocacy non-profit with a vision of fair, safe, accessible, and inclusive sport for everyone.
The inclusion of trans women in elite women’s sport has been a hot button issue of late with high profile instances such as Emily Bridges’ attempt to compete in the UK sparking concern and upset on all sides. While the inclusion of trans women has led to protests by those who worry that cis women (the term for women born anatomically female) are at a competitive disadvantage at some U.S. races.
However, the report concluded that “the fears that cis women need be protected from trans women in elite sport are unsubstantiated and misplaced.
"What threatens women’s elite sport, for cis and trans women, is not trans women, but is rather misogyny in the form of underfunding, non-parity in participation and leadership, inequitable sport space allocation/access, and a range of sporting opportunities not afforded to women (cis women and trans women) in equitable ways.”

The simple truth of things is that if the United voice of a community cannot sway you away from buying a single game you do not care about that community and you do not get to pretend you do
