He’s done some imperfect things, but still so much better than most politicians

I wish we would see more politicians dare speak this clearly.
Instead of being wish-washy and talk about trans rights being “complex”.
Just watch this and grow a spine.

It’s also quite a wonderful defence of disabled people and disability rights, arguing that life holds value even if it looks different from the norm.
Like, maybe that’s obvious, but still worth pointing out I think.

I’m not exaggerating when I say that I almost teared up watching this.
It’s fucking rare to see a politician talk about trans rights like this.
It’s extremely refreshing.

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...

i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: i don’t think most people are aware of just how extreme Rowlings views and actions are

Keira Knightley was "not aware" of 'Harry Potter' boycott when she joined audiobook cast for JK Rowling series: "I'm very sorry"

I haven’t checked out Cat Sebastian yet, so that’s going on the list!!

Have you seen that “Heated Rivalry” is getting turned into a tv show? The trailer came out the other day and it looks good. 👀 And… eh… heated 🔥🥵

The hockey ones are my faves too! I have read “Gravity”, it’s great!
If you haven’t, you gotta read LA Witt’s books, especially “Rookie mistake” and “Scoreless game”! Oh and all of Rachel Reid’s books!

Also, for some trans rep I really like “The Prospects” by KT Hoffman (baseball, not hockey tho)

I think I’ve read like 4 of their books! They’re really good!!! Like you say, both the emotional and physical parts! And the character work in both those parts!

sorry to be like this but it looks like ManuclearBomb is permanently detonated on this site, so this will be my full-time account - still trying to find all my moots!

Y'all know you need more Marxism-Leninism and Gendry-Cheenism in your life

It is very uncommon here, about 4 deaths per 100 000 births, but it does still happen.
My heart is breaking for her family, especially her husband who is a wonderful person and now has to take care of a newborn (and a toddler) while grieving.

Thank you. ❤️ I feel sort of in shock and very sad. And so very sad for her husband and children.

I’m sort of in shock, but I wanted to write something.

The world has lost a wonderfully kind person, and her family has lost even more.

Nina. ❤️💔
