It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Small, tiniest of wins that is still part of a greater loss, but Brown has announced that it will not restrict trans people from bathrooms in academic buildings after readers met with Brown officials. It’s still a shameful capitulation. But at least there’s that.

This is Chachamaru. After much contemplation, he has decided that yes, you may have this dance. 13/10 (TW: chachamaru_pug)
a teeny pug puppy rises from a sit on a rug with a brown and beige checkerboard pattern. his booty is lifted but his right front and back paws are touching. he’s offering his left front paw in a blurry extension to the person’s outstretched hand before him, and he’s concentrating very hard on the interaction. he might be a little nervous, seeing as how he literally has two left feet. his tiny eyebrows are wrinkled and everything.

Twitter post/pohoto from JK Rowling who sits on what looks like yacht, taking a puff of what looks like a cigar.  She holds a cocktail close to her face and looks smug as fuck. Text on tweet: I love it when a plan comes together. #SupremeCourt #WomensRights.Text on screen: our.moral.imperative British billionaire JK Rowling has posted several gloating tweets today after the UK
Supreme Court ruled that only 'biological women' legally count as women, excluding trans women from legal protections and safeguards.
Rowling's vicious smear campaign against trans people in Britain has been going on for several years now and has played a major role in cultivating the extremely hostile and toxic environment that exists in the country towards trans people, particularly in the name of liberal 'feminism'.

Wide-ranging interview addresses how Trump presidency has upended certainties over EU-US relations A group of Serbian students completed their epic 1,300km trip from Novi Sad to Strasbourg, France last night, getting a red carpet welcome as they got there. The campaign sought to draw the EU’s attention to on-going mass protests in Serbia against alleged corruption after 15 people died and several were seriously injured when the concrete canopy of the newly renovated train station in Novi Sad, Serbia’s second largest city, collapsed.
