gatetossing: hurling the gate at passersby and attempting to capture them, regardless of whether they wanted to pass through the gate

I’ve never seen a single episode of the pitt but I do think that kind autistic woman should fuck the twitchy drug guy who has the eyes of an abandoned shelter dog

the joy of working with middle school aged children is that, regardless of how long you've been doing it, they will always find novel ways to annoy and confuse you, which is okay because that's the natural state of the middle school aged child. anyway suffice it to say that for the past three weeks of school my 6th grade class has been greeting me at my door by lining up outside of it, playing the national anthem, and saluting me as i walk in.

they've gotten the kids from the spanish class next door to join in. their dedication to the bit is exasperating yet commendable.

oh cool the UK government covered up a spike in trans youth suicides after they restricted trans care.

A Freedom of Information request to the National Child Mortality Database reveals that 22 trans children under 18 died by suicide in England

Not meaning to be snarky here but british trans people have been reporting on this for ages and it's only really making a splash in the US now that erin reported it. I'm glad that she's taking on the morally necessary international perspective but we've been pretty fucking loud about it. I just sometimes feel like americans don't appreciate that everyone else keeps up with your news out of necessity but the reverse is much rarer.

Trans Kids Deserve Better, the under 18s direct action group that do legitimately more than the vast majority of cis or trans adults, vandalised the NHS headquarters with bloody handprints and "release the trans suicide youth report" because they knew just from being trans kids that there was a massive spike that wasn't coming through in the numbers

TransActual and the Good Law Project have reported on the suicides quite extensively, doing FOIA requests and doggedly pursuing the people responsible who have repeatedly tried to cover it up with no real answers for even the incomplete data that could be accessed which disproved the claim of no rise in suicides. I don't remember which weeks it was now because it was so long ago but on Red Planet we've talked about this several times and keep an ongoing update on Wes Streeting's war on trans kids.

There has been extensive reporting in outlets even as liberal and wet as Pink News about clinic wait times, bolstered by the data accessing and reporting by QueerAF, WhatTheTrans and others.

Even Erin's article is largely just repeating what the Good Law Project's press release said. She hasn't done anything wrong there to be clear, it's just the lack of people broadly paying attention to this story has been a little frustrating is all. The UK getting treated like the 51st state is ingrained by reactionary political currents like the anti-trans movement and it needs to be called out very loudly especially when children are literally being killed by it.

I guess it would've been cool if more people believed the kids from TKDB and reported on it a lot sooner is all. I hope the links are helpful to people

Like there are so many things about this that are not just violent but insulting and dehumanising that will be easily forgotten if nobody is paying attention until it's a story deemed worthy of americans.

Wes Streeting indefinitely extended the ban on puberty blockers the day before what would have been Brianna Ghey's birthday. He was doing it in early November 2024 so that everyone would be too distracted with the US elections to care, and it worked. A sense of international shaming of Britain for being so transphobic was impossible because US elections sucked all the air out of the room

The relationship between the UK and US is actually a very core part of what is being done to us here and I don't want to leave that unsaid.

i think peak historical fiction is when there is a random ass major historical figure but as a comedic relief side character. like geoffrey chaucer being a naked gambling addict in a knight’s tale or leonardo da vinci being cinderella’s fairy godmother in ever after. like. nothing can top that.
