This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first.

One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish.

Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my schoolโ€™s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didnโ€™t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I donโ€™t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points.

We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Sorenโ€™s participation in the girlsโ€™ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are.

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

Stop KOSA KOSA is a censorship bill that wonโ€™t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!

KOSA is being reintroduced today.

It's always been a dangerous censorship bill.

But in this environment, with Trump weaponizing every aspect of the Federal government to suppress speech he doesn't like, KOSA is a catastrophic attack on human rights.

We have to stop it.

I'm wretched and unpleasant and useless and uncreative and I don't even make up for it by being pretty and fuckable

No wonder I've never been part of "the queer community" (or any other community for that matter) in any meaningful sense, I have nothing to offer

Donate to Help me not be homeless., organized by Lynn F Hello, I usually go by Wisp or Lumi. I'm 30 years old. Since I was 21 my health took a tumble and I cโ€ฆ Lynn F needs your support for Help me not be homeless.

My partner made a fundraiser to try & help with our situation.

I'd mentioned before that things weren't going well & they've gotten worse. Our lease ends in May & we haven't been able to find new housing we can afford. If you can help at all it would be seriously appreciated.

things have gotten worse & the main lead on housing we had is gone. we still need a place but it's likely going to be harder to find something we can afford than it even was before. we really need your help
thank you everyone who's shared & donated, i can't express enough how much it means to us

they immediately gave her a lordship when this came out. might be worth investigating if there was a quid pro quo established ahead of time to find for the government's preferred position given how many ethical questions have been raised in peer reviewed reviews of the Cass Report.

in 10 years i have never made a consistent income from this work and i am tired of designers from huge companies moodboarding and parasitising my designs while i struggle to make a living.

15.05.2025 18:11 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 4328    ๐Ÿ” 520    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 22    ๐Ÿ“Œ 8

i don't have the resources nor the energy to spare to pursue this legally but i have lost count of the number of times a major company has deemed it easier to pay a designer to imitate or steal my work than to write me an email.

bungie is of course not obligated to hire me when making a game that draws overwhelmingly from the same design language i have refined for the last decade, but clearly my work was good enough to pillage for ideas and plaster all over their game without pay or attribution.

Perfect. Bringing out the big guns. I also heard the DNC utilized a childโ€™s prayer and the collective power of friendship to change the presidentโ€™s mind re: pulping habeas corpus. โ€œWishing on a shooting starโ€ was shot down by senior membership as โ€œprematurely aggressive.โ€
