Upside down cat, but now with color.

Reading about how intersex athletes have been treated is so fucking horrible. The countless lies and human rights violations. The discrimination and how it’s ruined the lives of so many people is so awful. There has been no apologies from any athletics comptetions or organizations. They have blood on their hands. Just a tw for intersexism and mental health issues and suicide in the next paragraph because it can get pretty heavy.

Annet Negesa, who was a middle distance runner. She was suddenly barred from competing due to her hormones. No one told her why. She was then told she needed to take medication to lower her testosterone, then what she was told was switched. She was lied to about a surgery that she was told was like an injection and would let her compete again. She woke up with scars and had had a gonadectomy. That violation of basic human rights and medical ethics combined with inadequate postsurgical care basically ended her career. She deserves justice. She deserves apologies from the Olympics and everyone single doctor who was involved in it, and compensation and the promise that it should never have happened and will never happen again. She. Needs. Justice.

Pratima Gaonkar needs justice. She was a rising track and field star. After forced sex verificatiom she killed herself. The way media and news treated her after her death was disgusting. She deserves and needs justice. Her family deserves justice.

Santhi Soundarajan had her medals stripped and was treated as an outcast after forced sex verification showed she had androgen insensitivity syndrome. She was treated as an outcast, her gender was mocked. She’s spoken out about how much discrimination she’s faced, and how badly she’s been treated. She now works as a coach, but was barred from competing. She deserves justice.

Caster Semenya deserves justice. Francine Niyonsaba deserves justice. Margaret Wambui deserves justice. Barbra Banda deserves justice. Beatrice Masilingi and Christine Mboma deserve justice.

The racism and intersexism and horrible human rights violations and medical abuse these women have faced for the supposed crime of being intersex and good at a sport is horrible. They deserve justice, but the organizations that perpetuate these atrocities don’t seem to care. It’s so fucking horrible.

crazy how India can have the largest labor strike in world history and it doesn't even make the news in the US. it's almost like they don't want us to know we can demand better working conditions

Nearly 250 million workers start strike in India

New Delhi, Nov 26 (Prensa Latina) Nearly 250 million Indian workers, from the construction, banking, manufacture, and service sectors, are s

250,000,000 people participated in India

For reference that'd be ~75% of the US population

That many people working together for fair labor laws

And most of the western world hasn't even heard about it

[sassyabrahamlincoln]

1 out of every 30 people in the entire WORLD participated in this strike and you haven't heard about it

4x more people participated than the number of people in the world who have tested positive for covid and you haven't heard about it

This should be a massive story. Why haven't you heard about it? Theres a very specific reason.

Companion piece of that one drawing I did of Mika as a kid. Eventually I decided it was a good idea to edit in the kanabo I drew on the other one–I meant for it to look closer, and I wanted to establish scale for the differences in her height from her look as a youngster and what she looked like later.
