"By the end of the two-year period, 94% of participants reported they were housed." A million pilot programs show the same thing: when people are given enough money to afford housing, homelessness ends. Other supports matter, but housing comes first. Not policing. Not moralizing. Homes.

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court is going to hear West Virginia's effort to ban the state's only transgender athlete, 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson. Win or lose, I need your help making sure Becky knows she's a hero for standing up for what's right

But Pepper-Jackson has more than the 4 kilogram weight of the shot used in high school girls’ shot put on her shoulder as her case enters the nation’s highest legal arena.

“I feel very nervous, but I know that someone has to do it, because letting these awful laws and bills just stand is not something that should happen,” Pepper-Jackson says in the video. “I want other trans girls to know that they are not alone, and that I’m doing this for us. … I really want them to have hope.”

Lmao apparently people near me are freaking out about a non binary teacher And I am watching the entire community come together to dunk on the much smaller group of transphobic dipshits and it is DELICIOUS The local newspaper even snarkily wrote about them and I am CRYING

- A group of fully grown adults
collapsed into emotional rubble this week after encountering a teacher title that did not personally receive their approval. The incident triggered mass Facebook posts, legal threats, and a community-wide reminder that the people screaming "kids are too soft" cannot emotionally survive one new word.
Parents immediately announced they were pulling children from music class, threatening lawsuits, and demanding firings, all because children accepted something calmly, politely, and without a meltdown.
This response enraged adults, who had worked very hard to be upset.
Children processed the situation in under 30 seconds.
Adults have now entered day three of spiral posting.
Several parents described the issue as "dangerous" and "immoral," words they apparently reserve for situations involving tambourines and basic respect.
One adult warned that children might ask questions, confirming the real horror is not gender, but curiosity.
The fragility on display has been remarkable. These are the same adults who mock participation trophies, complain about snowflakes, and brag about "how we were raised." That upbringing, it turns out, produced people who short-circuit when reality fails to match their Facebook comfort zone.

Experts note that not one child reported confusion, distress, or identity crisis. However, dozens of adults reported being personally wounded, spiritually attacked, and victimized by the existence of a teacher who did not cater to their feelings.
At press time, children remained fine. Music class remained fine. The school remained fine. Only the adults were broken, trembling before the terrifying idea that the world does not freeze until they approve it.
Community Note: If you would like to counter the noise, the district needs supportive messages reminding them that calm, inclusive adults still exist and that children do not need to be rescued from basic human respect.
The
encourages these parents to locate
the nearest mirror and ask themselves why a second grader has more emotional stability than they do.
