I’m not trans. As far as I know, my kids aren’t at the moment. Nobody in my family is. None of my good friends are. I don’t prescribe medication for gender affirming care. I don’t specifically treat folks for gender dysphoria. So why do I give a fuck?

You don’t punch down. There’s no transgender machine producing trans judiciary and trans politicians and trans PACs to come for my cisgender. There are trans folks being discriminated against, outed, beaten, jailed, and killed. I hate bullies.

As far as I'm concerned, you have three options:

1. Not watch the new Harry Potter.

2. Watch the new Harry Potter but shut up about it.

3. Admit to watching the new Harry Potter and be judged.

There is no fourth option. I think you should do number 1, but you're a grownup and I don't have access to your router, so it's not up to me. But understand that if you do watch it, you need to either shut the hell up or brace yourself. Because I am not here to make you feel ok about it.

Swedish billionaire Roger Akelius has donated 800 million SEK ($76 million) to support children in the Gaza Strip, matching a 400 million SEK allocation from the Swedish government.

This brings the total aid package to 1.2 billion SEK ($114 million), to be distributed through UNICEF. The funds are specifically designated for a five-year program focused on re-establishing education and child protection.

The initiative aims to fund the operations of 400 schools, covering teacher salaries, meals, and supplies, while providing essential psychological support, clean water, and vaccinations for traumatized children.
