For SELF, I highlighted the trans kids who don’t make the news, whose stories might go otherwise unheard: the ones who are already out there playing on teams with their friends, winning and losing without incident.

What It Looks Like When Trans Kids Are Simply Allowed to Play Sports

NEW from me in Canadian Dimension:
Sylvain “Food Professor” Charlebois’ recent flirtation with climate denial is a natural pivot for a guy dedicated to defending corporate profit.

is this a safe space to admit that I always thought Penn & Teller were Simon & Garfunkel?

This year I started a series of artworks influenced by Picasso. I've taken elements of his style and used it to focus on topics he didn't, mainly Black women, with some African influences thrown in too.

not that i thought i was very smart to begin with, but man, trying to learn a second language in your 30s is certainly one way to humble yourself.

SCOOP: The Kansas newspaper raided Friday by cops had been investigating allegations of sexual misconduct by the chief of police at his previous job.

![excerpt from link: EM: So the backstory that we haven't told, because we don't wanna get in trouble, is that we've been investigating the police chief [Gideon Cody]. When he was named Chief just two months ago, we got an outpouring of calls from his former co-workers making a wide array of allegations against him saying that he was about to be demoted at his previous job and that he retired to avoid demotion and punishment over sexual misconduct charges and other things.
We had half a dozen or more different anonymous sources calling in about that. Well, we never ran that because we never could get any of them to go on the record, and we never could get his personnel file. But the allegations—including the identities of who made the allegations—were on one of the computers that got seized. I may be paranoid that this has anything to do with it, but when people come and seize your computer, you tend to be a little paranoid.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ejihld4sywvvqwe67cdkn4jq/bafkreia6voh4vd6xqohfa6zfzn56ifbrq3lsbbbkpgi4b32zt7x73ml2iu@jpeg)
