The thing I was thinking the most while watching Conclave was actually a classmate I had in uni who is a nun. She talked about the role of women on the church and how there should be a woman pope. And like, years ago she was given a scholarship to study philosophy in Rome, except she couldn't. Because the nuns had to perform all the domestic labor for the priests and the workload was too big, add to that stuff like how no one could leave the dinner table before the archbishop and he liked to talk so sometimes he would make everyone stay until late at night and ofc the nuns had to clean up after that, or when the priests wanted to give the nuns an easy day they would decide they would have a picnic, but the nuns still had to prepare their picnic. My friend just couldn't find the time to study, so she dropped her scholarship and came back to Mexico.

And Conclave does such a good job of making this work visible, even when if only Sister Agnes speaks, there is always shots of nuns working. For everything the priests do, it's always shown how the nuns make it possible. Benítez standing out early on for being the one person to thank them. The film ending on a seemingly unrelated shot of nuns walking.

It's a very poignant statement given how reproductive labor is often invisibilized.

Incarcerated trans women self-mutilate for gender-affirming surgery

Incarcerated trans women in New Jersey have been pushed to self-harm amid delays in necessary medical care

Article published: December 11th, 2024.

A trans woman incarcerated in a New Jersey men’s prison severely mutilated herself after waiting years for gender-affirming surgery that would create a pathway for her to move to the state’s only women’s prison. She is one of several trans women in recent years to resort to self-harm amid delays in necessary medical care.

[...]

The New Jersey Department of Corrections (NJDOC) contracts with University Correctional Health Care (UCHC) at Rutgers University to provide medical, dental, and mental health care for those in NJDOC custody. Valentina and other trans women have repeatedly criticized UCHC and NJDOC for what they say is substandard treatment, unreasonable delays, and opaque decision-making.

[...]

The dispute over the treatment of trans women in New Jersey prisons dates largely back to October 2022, when the state changed an internal policy to give corrections officials greater leeway to override trans prisoners’ housing preferences.

[...]

Other trans women, including Valentina and Belladonna, say the policy change—coupled with years long delays in obtaining surgeries that would alleviate officials’ concerns—was used to similarly relegate them to men’s prisons where they’ve face sexual abuse, harassment, and violence from both staff and incarcerated men.

[...]

According to ACLU attorney and expert on transgender rights Chase Strangio, courts have repeatedly found that denying incarcerated people medical care, including transition-related care, is unconstitutional—though the practice of providing that care remains a different story.  

“The government, once it confines someone against their will, cannot deliberately withhold needed medical care,” Strangio said in an interview with Them. “This basic constitutional requirement is being treated as controversial because the media and state and federal lawmakers have so effectively demonized transgender people … that the idea that the Constitution would protect us is itself seen as something bordering on a joke.”

recently got a blahaj and this image immediately came into my mind and didnt leave until i drew it. (dont mind me, i just hc that they combined their last names. and also that theyre both trans)(if you believe in t4t nrmt be my friend please /hj)

Dear compassionate souls, I come to you with a heavy heart, burdened by our story, our lives shattered by the ongoing onslaught of violence in Gaza. Since the beginning of October we have been suffering from terrible conditions and difficulties. Living in Gaza is terrifying during these times, bombs are constantly falling and our lives are in danger. Our house was completely destroyed and we were forced us to move from khanyounis to el mawwasi with minimal personal belongings. I am Ahmed Al-Agha, 25 years old, a graduate of media and mass communication from Al-Azhar University in Gaza. I was a volunteer in the Public Relations Department at the University of Gaza. Due to the difficulty of jobs in the Gaza Strip, I had to register for a professional diploma in culinary arts, but I did not complete it due to the terrible war. After my father passed away in 2021, life pushed me to grow up early and take responsibility for my family, including my mother (samah), my brother(omar)and my three sisters,abla 20years old,yomna17years old and jody 9years old. I dream of owning a small restaurant in order to support my beautiful family. Allow me to introduce you to my family, the very core of my existence: Samah, my great mother, an Arabic language graduate, a strong, courageous, compassionate, and extremely generous mother. She loves her kitchen utensils more than anything else, and becomes very sad if a plate or cup breaks. Her main goal in life is to gain her mother’s approval and the happiness of her children in all possible ways and to do the impossible for them. Omar is an accounting graduate from Al-Aqsa University in Gaza. He is an ambitious young man with big dreams. He loves going out with his friends and driving cars. He used to work for Atlas , but at the beginning of November the company's headquarters was completely destroyed, and he is now without work. Abla is an intelligent and educated girl,she loved children and reading novels, My mother depends on her to manage the household. She prepares us the best shawarma fattah in the world and many wonderful desserts. She studies English at Al-Aqsa University and dreams of becoming an English teacher, but her dream will not come true because her university was completely destroyed. Youmna is a wonderful girl, a student in the second year of secondary school. She has a leadership personality. She was a camp leader in the Association for Culture and Free Thought. She has a talent for drawing and participates in art exhibitions in her school and in civil society institutions. She loves drinking Nescafe and listening to music when she draws. She has courses in drawing. The characters: Her dream is to create her own art gallery and to study at the College of Fine Arts. Jody, my little sister, is 9 years old. She is smart and beautiful. She worked and dreams of becoming a model in the future and has the talent of acting. She participated in an advertisement for a bridal chalet and was the heroine of the advertisement. I felt very happy to participate in the advertisement. She suffered from severe psychological disorders at the beginning of the war after she saw several children dispersed as a result of the bombing of the house opposite ours. I try to maintain her psychological state by going together to the seashore and meeting her friends in the nearby tents and playing with them so that she is not distracted by the terrible news and scenes shown on the Internet. , the war has shattered our lives, leaving us without a safe haven or a place to call it home. We are human beings, just like you. We eat, drink, watch Tom and Jerry, love to travel, and love life . The only solution to save my family is to get them out of Gaza by paying an amount of 5,000 US dollars for each of the above-mentioned people to . If the money is available, it can get them out within thirty days. ‏Please consider that the above mentioned people are your family. How would you like them to be helped ? Your help, even if it is just one dollar, Im sure that it will never forget your help

When I saw this photo, I couldn’t help but think of Oliver Twist — the little boy begging for a little more food.

But this isn’t fiction. This is Gaza.

This little girl is real. Her hunger is real.

Just like the pain my son endures every day — he’s a wounded child, severely injured in an Israeli airstrike, and now trapped in this blockade with no medicine, no treatment, and barely enough food to survive.

I’m his mother, and I am begging — not for food, but for a chance to get him the urgent medical care he needs.

Please, help me save his life
