Now is a good time to remember that LGBTQ people are among the most targeted by violence.

Allies, these organizations are on the front lines. Please support them.

During the Progressive Era organized sports for kids were seen as a means of democratization and assimilation … for white immigrants. Organized play and playgrounds were rarely offered to Black youth. So sports have historically been used to divide, as they are being used now.

To emphasize a point Snitty makes in her thread: Excluding trans kids from sports is about cutting them out of public life. The lies people pushed about "fairness" were a thin cover for anti-trans bigotry. For most athletes sports are about socialization. They're taking that away from trans kids.

The great-grandson of Wong Kim Ark, whose 1898 case established birthright citizenship, reacts to today's SCOTUS decision:

"He was one man, only a cook, and yet he stood up for what was right... Today's ruling shows that his victory remains as important now as it was in 1898."

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.

Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars

The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.

Why aren't we doing this?
