Oh my god, I love Heartstopper, but it makes me ugly-cry at least once per episode.

I was talking with @taedryn about how the high percentage of caring, accepting people in that show paints unrealistic expectations when compared to reality.

Young Alice could have really benefited from watching that series, and I *know* a *lot* of my friends could have too. I see so many people I knew in the show's characters (and for almost every member of the cast, I've pointed at the screen and said "I dated someone like ___ in highschool").

Anyway, now that I'm all tear-streaked and it's nearing 1 AM, time to go crawl in bed.

Goodnight Fedi-fam 💞
Thanks for being good folx 🫂

From the article: “For LGBTQ+ people, building community isn’t just a phrase, it’s a way of life,” HRC president Kelley Robinson said in a press release. “Local politics shapes our lives just as much as state or national politics does. Mayors and city councilors who take LGBTQ+ inclusion seriously build stronger communities, and in turn, their cities thrive.”

In my opinon Transphobia within the LGBTQ community is being exploited by those outside the community on social media via the use of trolls and disinformation.

From the article: "To fully serve the LGBTQ community and make America truly representative, we need to start by examining the prejudices within our community. Both political organizing and the LGBTQ community began with people who today may identify as transgender. However, trans women and men are often neglected by those who set political priorities of our community, if not treated with outright hostility and prejudice. This blog will focus on historical and ongoing prejudice towards transgender men and women by cisgender gay men, lesbians, and bisexuals."

Throwing it back a few weeks to this amazing party with over a hundred friends who met through a charity. A fantastically spooky Halloween party that took place in a 14th century hall.
Many thanks to everyone for this, it was truly one of the best things I've done in a long time.
