Trans Youth Suicides Skyrocketed In UK After Care Drawdown; Government Covers It Up A Freedom of Information request to the National Child Mortality Database reveals that 22 trans children under 18 died by suicide in England in 2021-22 alone.

In an alarming development, it appears the UK Government covered up a massive spike in trans youth suicides after restrictions.

Then covered it up again when caught.

Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country.

Another Study Confirms Trans Women Have No Advantage in Sports. I Hope We Can Move Beyond Conversations About "Fairness" The argument that trans-exclusion keeps athletics “honest and fair” is just another boogeyman thrown up to make trans erasure from public life easier and quicker.

'study confirms findings from several other studies performed over the last few years that trans women have no biological competitive edge or advantage over their cis counterparts in sports and athletic competitions.'

I have never been SO PROUD to be a MINNESOTAN, and also SO ASHAMED to be an AMERICAN in my life.

I'll tell you about some of my simple dreams. I wish I could take a hot shower instead of having water poured all over me. I wish I had a door for my room. I wish I had a wardrobe instead of leaving my clothes on the floor. I wish I had a normal window.

In some countries, the same Russian Houses that lead these 'educational programs' also recruit people to fight in the war against Ukraine. It's colonialism wrapped in anticolonial language.

Russia attacks energy infrastructure in 'several regions' overnight, energy ministry says #Ukraine

This is one hundred percent true. Government programs that provided aid and subsidies, and were de facto white-only, were popular across party lines and widely accepted before the Civil Rights movement.

When open discrimination in their application was outlawed, the pullback began.

Any country that agrees to pay anything (let alone $1 billion) to join the Board of Peace is endorsing plans to replace the UN with a much more problematic replacement and is placing a final dagger into the post-WW2 order.

No matter how you feel about that order today, this needs saying.
