Incredible news.
Missouri officially passes Amendment 3, codifying abortion rights into law.
This is despite anti-trans attacks against the amendment, stating it would allow "sex change surgeries on young kids," a common Republican line against abortion rights amendments.

This story got drowned out by the elections yesterday, but I want to make it clear to everyone.
A decent sized city in Tennessee has banned public homosexuality.
This is the kind of law we have not seen since the 70s. It’s straight out of Orbán and Putin’s government.

We are under the spell of a social panic - a particular social dynamic that demands a demon, a punishable entity upon whom societal anxieties can be projected. Trans people occupy that role at this moment in time. Make no mistake. They mean to disappear us from society.

“I’ll mask if there’s a disabled person”
Yes because every time a disabled person steps into a supermarket they hold up a big megaphone and shouts “everyone put on a mask!” and everyone just happily takes out a mask which they always bring with them just in case and puts it on

The University of Arkansas Pine Bluff which is an HBCU has been underfunded by $330.9 million over the period from 1987 to 2020.
With Arkansas’s current budget surplus was sitting at $1.161 billion they could easily write a check to UAPB to fix that.

Allow me to be clear, I am not “ruining the School of Education/the Univeristy’s reputaion”, they ruined their own reputation when they decided to bully, denigrate, and create a hostile work environment for Faculty and Students of Color. I am merely elevating and highlighting.
