If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Ugh Jon Stewart vehemently declaring Star Wars fans are “never gonna get laid” is so fucking annoying.
All wrapped in there is pathologizing fandom, bullying nerds, misogyny, and more all in one stupid tired trope.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

I know this is a joke but setting up therapy can be a gigantic pain in the ass fr.
I’ve been trying for months. And no I’m not doing any of the online ones. I’ve tried them and they didn’t work well for me and BetterHelp in particular is known to sell personal info in violation of HIPAA.

The thing about this is, is this is how born-rich people *already* do it - whether it's making art, or starting a business, or whatever they successfully do. They already know it works.

My #disability story might have taken a really interesting and different turn! My district may have done something really cool to help me and I need to do a little bit of due diligence before writing about it, but if I can I’ll be doing so from a very different perspective. 🤞🏽

When you’re chronically ill, your world can be quite small.
People abandon you when you become disabled. When you can’t hide your pain.
The isolation can be just as hard as the illness… but please know you’re not alone.
None of us are ever alone. We are all fighters & this community has your back

The problem I have with this is the assumption that people don’t care. People do care, a lot, and that takes a toll so they turn away because they feel impotent to affect that huge problem when there are a million smaller problems right in front of them everyday.
Judge Young then proposes that maybe Americans just don't care because there aren't many immigrant Palestinians among us and Gaza is far away. He then concludes this section with a robust defense of WHY people should care about what this admin is doing, which I'm reproducing in full.

![Here's why: The United states is a great nation, not because any of us say so. It is great because we still practice our frontier tradition of selflessness for the good of us all. Strangers go out of their way to help strangers when they see a need. In times of fire, flood, and national disaster, everyone pitches in to help people we've never met and first responders selflessly risk their lives for others. Hundreds of firefighters rushed into the Twin Towers on 9/11 without hesitation desperate to find and save survivors. That's who we are.
