I was not involved in the making of that article, all I do is report on Brazilian news and culture. All I can say is, I'm disapointed and irritated with that article.

I assumed it was about reporting on what was happening to Tara, I was wrong and I will not partake on the HALing.

A Letter to the United States People, From Latin America
It doesn’t matter if it’s the US or the Middle East, it’s all about control– of a country’s politics, of a country’s resources, of a country’s strategic importance.

Minnesota Court of Appeals expands legal precedent for faith-based discrimination.
Broadly, this new precedent could mean that any faith-based organization now has free license to discriminate based on internal policies. It remains to be seen if this will remain state-wide precedent or be elevated to a SCOTUS case.

Brazil- Queer rights group in Brazil receives threats of attacks.
The far-right isn’t inevitable but these threats are part of their standard playbook. What we need is to organize so the right-wing bad actors don’t win.

Academia Slaying: “What Puppygirls Know? The (in)Human Pedagogy of a Trans Feminine Style”
The tools of academia can be used for joyful things- rather than just for reinforcing or changing the system. They can reflect the joy of, for example, “Barking and Ripping Things up and Just Freaking it.”
