do you have any good queer news? I'm a queer person and hearing all the shit thats happening across the world is making me bummed out

I do! All of this is from LGBTQ Nation's excellent good news tag

^Article date: July 6, 2023

"Only two months after its formation, the “No SB 180” initiative had succeeded at making the city of Lawrence, Kansas a sanctuary city for LGBTQ+ people. Last week, in a unanimous vote, Lawrence became the first city in the state to declare itself as such.

Ordinance 9999 bans the city and all of its employees from collecting or releasing information on a person’s “biological sex, either male or female, at birth” and from helping with any investigation, detention, arrest, or surveillance “conducted by a jurisdiction with the authority to enforce Senate Bill 180, as enacted.”"

^Article date: July 28, 2023

"A federal judge has told a group of anti-trans parents to mind their own business after the group filed a lawsuit challenging an Ohio school district’s bathroom policy.

The attempts to meddle do not “pass legal muster,” he wrote in his ruling, saying that the group has no reason to sue.

“Not every contentious debate concerning matters of public importance presents a cognizable federal lawsuit,” Judge Michael Newman wrote, denying their petition to stop the Bethel Local School District’s policy that allows a single transgender middle school student to use the restroom that aligns with her gender identity."

^Article date: August 8, 2023

"The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the independent federal agency responsible for administering civilian foreign aid and development assistance, has released its first-ever “LGBTQI+-inclusive” policy since its founding in 1961.

The four-point policy is meant to serve as a blueprint for USAID staff and partners around the world to champion LGBTQ+ and intersex development and the human rights of all queer people through the agency’s work, said Jay Gilliam, USAID’s senior LGBTQI+ coordinator, in a video explaining the policy...

In simpler terms, the U.S. will try to improve diplomatic relationships with other countries by investing in locally-led LGBTQ+-inclusive programs that are shown to positively impact communities in need."

^Article date: August 3, 2023

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit has ruled in favor of three transgender students who were forbidden by their schools from using bathrooms matching their gender identities. The circuit court upheld a lower court’s preliminary injunction that said the schools have to let trans students use facilities associated with their genders...

The case involves three trans boys in Martinsville, Indiana and Terre Haute, Indiana, who need access to the boys’ room at their middle and high schools...

The court took into account the fact that Title IX bans discrimination on the basis of sex in schools that receive federal money, which is most of them. Citing the 2020 Supreme Court decision in Bostock v. Clayton Co. that found that job discrimination against LGBTQ+ people necessarily takes sex into account and is therefore prohibited under Title VII, the appeals court ruled that the trans boys are likely to succeed in their case and that preventing them from using the correct bathroom while the case works its way through the court system could cause irreparable harm.

^Article date: June 21, 2023

"A federal judge has ruled on the side of trans rights after a conservative group tried to overturn an Ohio school district’s anti-bullying policy.

The national conservative group Parents Defending Education (PDE) tried to get a preliminary injunction passed on the Olentangy Local School District’s prohibition on misgendering trans students. The policy includes students, teachers, and parents and it applies to out-of-school hours and social media as well."

There's literally a bunch more I wanted to include, by the way! Tumblr just stopped being able to load them. Going back to add a few more in the reblogs now.

I know it feels like everything is against us right now. But I promise you: that is not true. The bigots and bastards may usually be the ones moving faster (in large part because they suck and don't care about democracy or due process at all),

But in the end, we are going to win. I promise.

coumba samba and gretchen lawrence shot by alex arauz ⋆

[hiskillingjar]

Since you were asking for questions to distract you:

What is one thing you have been DYING to share about Echo, Lawrence, Ren and/or Strade? Literally just use this ask to go on a rant about whatever/whoever you want 💛

*fiona apple voice* what the hell, sure.

long post so under the cut. general headcanon dump for ren/fox, law and strade be upon ye. echo is included.

ren + fox 🦊

can't speak japanese (think this is canon) and feels weird and traumatised about it. makes an effort to learn after strade's death, and by fox age, he's fluent.

(also) after strade's death, he attends community college (by fudging a high school degree and upping the sob story of an abusive boyfriend) and gets a degree in coding :)

really struggles to eat vegetables and dairy. would only eat meat and carbs if he was left to his own devices

both of these make his not entirely subtle ED habits flare up, though, so he's kind of a bad eater. don't take him out for dinner, he'll overthink it for days

has a pintrest where he collects outfit inspiration ^_^

sort of self-conscious about his height but knows it's an asset in his younger years. starts wearing heeled boots as he gets older.

lawrence 🥀

can't watch movies or tv shows without disassociating. it makes existing as a human being sort of exhausting

had a crush on their guidance counsellor at school and fantasised about her raping them. felt immediately bad about it and had an OCD doom spiral that made them stop going to see her

generally sex and romance repulsed, to the degree that they questioned if they even had the capacity to feel those emotions at all

turns out, just super depressed

when they do feel romantic or sexual, it can be very overwhelming and intense. which is why they prefer to just. not feel it lol

struggles gaining weight but develops a bit of a gut as they get older. they're a little self-conscious about it.

has a few hang-ups about masculinity, queerness, gender nonconformity. their dad put some fucked up ideas into their head as a kid (which also explains their OCD)

has two broken molars and crooked teeth from not looking after them when they were younger

strade 🔨

coffee drinker. likes it strong but with two sugars. won't drink tea, thinks it's a bad use of caffeine

not a picky eater but won't eat vegetarian "fake" meat. he has like a visceral reaction to it. real dad core energy in that respect.

on the subject of dad core, totally does that thing where he'll walk into a room and just stand there watching tv for twenty minutes. has done that when ren watches anime. no sitting, just...standing.

yellow teeth <3 from smoking when he was younger (with the occasional cigar in his older age) and coffee drinking.

never broken a bone, but has a fuck ton of scars and scrapes. his back especially (from fucking ren <3)

has a few masochistic inclinations. likes a punch to the face, likes to get scratched up and beat up. it gets his blood pumping

very comfortable being a verse, but wouldn't sub for love nor money. ultimate power bottom when he's doing it

acab. really doesn't like police. like he knows how to chat to them and put on the charm and all that, but he doesn't trust them. acab.

echo 🪒 (that's her emoji) (also just facts I feel like sharing)

echo was named and based after echo and query, the riddler's lesbian sidekicks in the batman comics. i developed the two of them into a genderfluid domsub lesbian couple for a batman 2022 fanfic, and got so attached to echo that she became her own character <3

echo's design was partially inspired by trianon serious weakness, but more so that I miss having black and green hair lol. she also has all of my piercings :)

characters who also inspired echo are vikki from what happens next and beth from manhunt by gretchen felker-martin

echo works at fictional cafe that's a stand-in for st*rbucks because of their gender affirming care benefits.

when she and law first met at therapy, she thought they were a clocky trans girl. had absolutely no idea they were basically cis until they told her

her favourite video games are metal gear solid (of course), silent hill and yume nikki

she'd never ever tell anyone she likes anime (because it's cringe apparently), but her favourites are neon genesis evangelion and berserk. has a secret fondness for madoka magica too

echo has one (1) other friend who's a detransitioned butch nb called matt (they/she). echo bullied matt in high school, and they eventually dated but broke it off amicably. they play call of duty together on thursdays.

echo has fucked every woman in law and her's group therapy, and she hates it.

Post BC Babies

Last year, I played a BC with my sim Maeve. Olive won, Pierce ended up having an accidental baby with Maeve too, and I actually moved all the contestants to my lepacy save to see their lives after BC too. Some of them ended up having kids and I decided to share them with you!

Notes:

Thomas, Hugh and Lawrence are children of Lilith Delacroix (@forgottenhollowss) and Benjamin Schmidt from Appaloosa Plains. Lana Delacroix is daughter of Lilith and Flynn Hammond (@plumbob95) Yeah, if I remember correctly, Lilith and Benjamin split up and then she had one more daughter with Flynn, but Flynn was dating someone else.

Alaina is daughter of Flynn Hammond and Imogen Pelly from Appaloosa Plains.

Gretchen is daughter of Wren Burchett (@toxoplasmajuice). In my save, she's apparently dating Kyler. Son of Hector. Who is the son of Annie. Who is the daughter of two former BC contestants too. I love how everyone in this legacy is somehow related to a BC contestant, sometimes multiple ways.

TOU: Don’t change their genetics. Feel free to give them a makeover - new hair, new clothes, makeup etc. Don’t claim as your own, don’t reupload or use as a base for your own sims. And please, @ me when you post her, I’d love to see what they’re up to!

Paradise Lost or Faust?

Here again I am divided, but it's not so much the head and the heart this time. It's a matter of what we might call "thin" global vs. "thick" local attachments.

I can see that Faust is the greater work. It's the greater work, among other reasons, because, as I said earlier this week, it explicitly resolves Milton's whole devil's-party dilemma by recasting its devil as the antithesis in a historical dialectic its God is glad to oversee, pronouncing finally that all who strive will be saved. It's greater in scope as well, its reflections on mythology and culture extraordinary in their sophistication. Its carnivalesque synthesis of classical and grotesque—of the Mediterranean and the North, of Classicism and Romanticism—already contains all the virtues we ascribe to modernism. But even in matters of pathos, in the tragedy of Gretchen, Goethe has Milton beat. Goethe is also hilarious, Milton humorless. Goethe can play all the notes, while Milton mostly has just the one: sublimity. The British and American Romantics all agreed that Goethe was the greatest writer of their time, and I don't see how it could be otherwise. Faust is lamentably underread today. It could be the greatest work of western literature in the 19th century, at least before the Russians.

And yet, I don't really read German—I taught myself the rudiments of the language once and can putter around haplessly on the facing pages of a translation thinking about this word or that, but no more—and I'm not deeply schooled, though I am shallowly schooled, in the German literary tradition. And I didn't read Faust until grad school. Whereas I've been living with Milton since I wrote my culminating high-school research paper on Paradise Lost, and I can feel his sublime language much more deeply than any poetry I have to read in translation. Furthermore, the whole tradition of English-language poetry after Milton comes in response to him, and in the most diverse ways, poets as different as Blake and Wordsworth, as Dickinson and Lawrence, replying to or echoing their puritan precursor. Poetry and prose: Moby-Dick comes out of Milton, and therefore the whole tradition of the Great American Novel. Frankenstein comes out of Milton, and therefore the whole genre of science fiction. Then there is nonfiction, Milton as one volcanic, perhaps unreliable, fount of liberalism. Areopagitica preceding the Second Treatise of Government and On Liberty, if not the American Constitution itself. If the author of Frankenstein's mother had not quarreled with Milton, to take another example, would the whole course of feminism have been different?

So in theory Faust, but in practice Paradise Lost. In the world at large, I know Faust is the greater book as I know that New York or London or Paris are greater than the city I live. But I still live in my city. In the world I live in, Milton is everywhere and inescapable, as Goethe is not quite.

If there’s one thing about the dwampyverse… they do an amazing job at creating characters and then picking out the perfect names for them.

I haven’t seen Milo Murphy’s Law (I will I promise), but man, these Two sure do look like their names

Maybe I’m just used to seeing these characters but man, even like Linda and Lawrence look like their names, or Susie Johnson, or even Gretchen in the fire side girls, you know? I just think it’s neat

Everything wrong with AYA in one post

Phineas says "friendzone"

Phineas is freaking tall

Baljeet is tall

Gretchen is tall

Ferbnessa

Erm, what did they do to Buford's hair?

WHY DO HALF OF THEM LOOK LIKE BOBBLEHEADS

Isabella isn't chubby, chubby Isabella with curly hair>>>>>>>

Buford is thin

What did they do to freaking Milly, not only is she not chubby but she became hilariously tiny like, why not Gretchen. Give Milly her chub back and never make Gretch tall again

that one atrocious line "wE aRe gUys, wE dO nOt tAlK aBoUt fEelInGs"

The fact that the line was said by Baljeet

Doof plot was great but his design is just his normal one with grey hair

FERBNESSA

No Jeremy, Norm, Monty or queen gal STACY

Buford and Baljeet are straight

Baljeet and Ginger's relationship is handled very badly

Adyson has been reduced to common teen girl

All the fireside gals were done dirty, design wise and personality wise

Please, what did they do to Buford's voice?

Why does Jeet still sound like he's six?

WHERE IS CANDACE?

The plot regarding Ferb, Jeet, Buford and the gals trying to get Phinabella together was futile

Everyone is OOC

Phineas and Ferb wearing shoes on the bed at the start of the episode

Ferb and Holly are the only two designs I am completly satisfied with

● FERBNESSA

The plot has a lot of holes, I will not get into that

the "sick with salmonella" line was funny af but should have not been used as a joke

WHERR3 IS MY GIRL STACY

Why are all of Phinabella's friends acting like Marinette's classmates, it is weird

WHY WERE THEY ALL CLAPPING, I'M DYING LMAO

Why is Candace's chin pointy, give her her round face back

Isabella disconnecting from the BYG killed my heart

Where are Linda and Lawrence

WHY DOES EVERYONE BELEIVE THIS IS THE FINAL EPISODE. GIVE "LAST DAY OF SUMMER" THE RESPECT IT DESERVES.

● FERBNESSSSSAAAAA

I would have preffered if this episode explored the life of ALL the kids and not just one ship

Tell me if I missed anything

[detectivedimplez]
