hi you may want to read this if you live in the US and are a trans minor, supporting a trans minor, or are a teacher/school official for kids k-12.
soooo... from what i just read in horror on whitehouse.gov, it's essentially going to be illegal moving forward for teachers to support trans kids in any way, shape, or form.
it sounds like this includes school counselors assisting with students' transition with things like using their correct name and pronouns, or just counseling them through their transition at all. not sure if this means school officials will just be completely silenced on this matter or essentially be forced to .. force kids to de-transition or stay in the closet.
it sounds like any school official definitely will be forced to deadname and misgender trans youth in school, and face legal repercussions and/or lose their jobs if they don't
here's the excerpt i found about this in the executive order "ending radical indoctrination in k-12 schooling" on the official whitehouse site:

so yeah basically. i dont know. im terrified for our trans youth in america right now.
im in shock and not really able to give any advice right now other than if you are close with a trans youth please support them, check in on them, keep them safe.
remind them that life is worth living and there are people out there fighting for them. if anyone has any other insight or advice please feel free to add to the post.
and yeah just please stay safe out there bc shit is getting scary. to all my trans siblings of all ages i love you. please keep living, even if just to spite this nasty motherfucker.
gen z we gotta stop TALKING about revolution and just DO IT. i know we're screen kids and the internet is a large part of our lives but the only way to get the people in power to listen us is meeting them at their level in the streets and fucking shit up. they don't care what we're saying on the internet. remember in history class saying how we would've killed hitler given the chance. well now is our chance.

Fuck hostile architecture, I want unhostile architecture. I want benches to be designed to be as easy as possible to sleep on. I want little places for pigeons to nest to be purposefully put on buildings. I want people designing public spaces to think about what they'd be like to skateboard on. I want "Please loiter" signs. I want people to be kind. I want...
Was working on a panel and then suddenly I decided to live vicariously through Tails and have him address the important things in life.
The ancient greeks were right about one thing, at least.
