I know supporting #Eurovision is complicated, but last year gave me so much hope as a non-binary person. Sadly the world is worse today, but I hear that rebellions are built on hope so stay hopeful. Queer joy is a protest.

Also serve kant.

pete.news · Finding that Eurovision 2023 non-binary joy in 2024Eurovision at home in 2023 felt special. 2024 broke that, but the past few days have given me hope. How? Why?

I laid down the line in the sand, half expecting someone to walk out. Thankfully, they didn’t and my message was delivered in no uncertain terms. Although the 20 students were a bit stunned by my frankness, I relied on the respect earned from last semester, especially the few who thanked me for creating a “safe space.”

hello from a park shelter where I was waiting out the rain after doing parkrun pictures.

Glad that I took my ski pants and umbrella and followed the run director's advice to take the pictures from a shelter!

The LGBTQ community and our Allies must challenge this decision.

"On Thursday, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk — a far-right federal judge in the Northern District of Texas with a record of aligning with the GOP’s most extreme legal positions — issued a ruling declaring that Title VII no longer protects LGBTQ+ people from workplace discrimination. The decision directly contradicts the Supreme Court’s landmark 2020 ruling in Bostock v. Clayton County, which held that discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity is, by definition, sex discrimination. Kacsmaryk’s ruling marks one of the most alarming judicial rollbacks of LGBTQ+ rights in recent memory — and sets up a direct legal challenge to one of the foundational civil rights protections for queer and trans people in the United States.

"The case was brought against the EEOC by the state of Texas alongside the Heritage Foundation, a central force behind Project 2025 — an aggressive right-wing policy blueprint that explicitly calls for rolling back LGBTQ+ protections in federal law. In siding with the plaintiffs, Judge Kacsmaryk pointed to the Texas Department of Agriculture’s current employee policy, which requires “employees to comply with this dress code in a manner consistent with their biological gender,” specifying that “men may wear pants” and “women may wear dresses, skirts, or pants.” The ruling also upheld the department’s policy banning transgender employees from using restrooms that align with their gender identity.

"The judge reached a verdict that Title VII only protects “firing someone simply for being homosexual or transgender,” but that it does not protect transgender or gay people from “harassment”

The Ace of Pentacles is a potential harbinger of abundance and opportunity. The seeds of potential are there, and it's time to nurture them. The presumed goal is to build a foundation of trust and reliability. There isn't any timeline obviously, as any reading this general can't be specific.

Now, what does it mean when you are bound by such a symbol? Being partially held in place and freedom arrives only once it has been relinquished? Or maybe it only needs to be claimed by someone to unleash one leg from its confinement? :neofox_3c:

Here's a star futomomo. It is indeed a bit sloppy. I did the whole thing one handed as a challenge :neofox_floof_cute:

While I'm not going to commit to any sort of post timing, I am getting comfortable taking pictures of myself again and that is a prerequisite for these posts. :neobread_heart: :bunhdheart:
