『ファーストボイス』鑑賞。 日本初のセクシャルハラスメントを巡る裁判を描いた映画。もちろんテーマそのものが意義深い上に、不可能(当時の価値観では)に挑む女性たちの訴訟劇という強い軸があるので最後まで退屈しない。 女性差別を描く辛い話でもあるが、逆説的にここ数十年の世の中の変化を強く感じさせる、希望に満ちた作品でもある。 いま現在も彼女たちのように、(セクハラに限らず)その時代の「普通」の価値観に取り囲まれ、バカにされながらも闘っている人たちがいる。それを心に刻まないとな、と思わせてくれる時点で十分すぎる価値のある作品。 movies.shochiku.co.jp/firstvoicemo...

AsiaPathの会議に参加してきました。 初めてタイで性別適合手術をおこなった84歳の医師がきていて、難聴で15年ほど人前で話さなかった、今日が人生最後の講演ですと言っていてみんなスタンディングオベーションでした。 タイといえば性別適合医療だけど、それも始めた人がいるからこその話でそんなに古い話でもない。初期のオペの写真からいかに技術刷新したか、性別適合手術は苦痛・悲劇・破産(お金がかかる課題はまだ残る)じゃなくて、ハッピーで健康になるためのもの、というのが最後のメッセージでした。

なおタイでは今年より一定の要件を満たす年2万人を目安にトランスのホルモン療法は公費助成されることに。無料です。年5億円ぐらいお金かかるので政治的にはめっちゃ物議を醸したらしい。ノンバイナリーも対象。 金銭的な面だけでなく、自己流でホルモンやる人が多い中で健康管理されやすくなるメリットもありそう。絵に描いた餅にしないように頑張ると現地の知人が言ってました。

岩手町のユースセンター「Miraito」を、ふるさと納税で応援できるみたいです。 Miraitoさんは、岩手町という人口1万人の小規模自治体でも、多様なこども若者が安心して過ごし、挑戦できる仕組みを作り、そのモデルを全国に届けようとしている団体です。LGBTの子ども若者の居場所「にじーず盛岡」の運営パートナーとしても大変お世話になっています。 日本の子どもが家と学校の二択だけではなく、他にもいける無料の場所があるのが当たり前という地域社会になってほしい、なおかつその場所がLGBTの子達にとっても楽しい場所であってほしいというのが遠藤の目指すところなのですが、

When I was in kindergarten, my mother let me watch Child's Play (1988, MPAA Rating: R) and I became immensely frightened by Chucky. So much so that when I didn't behave, my mother would say, 「あんた!いい子にしないとチャッキー来るよ!」 ("YOU! If you don't behave, Chucky will come [to get you]!")

Owls in Towels @owls-in-towels.bsky.social · 23h
4th of Owltober! Coda the Eastern Screech Owl, an ambassador at BeWild Reptile Rescue in North Carolina, is pictured shortly before getting his beak trimmed with the help of summer interns. Want to donate to BeWild? bewildnc.org/support-us/ Source: fb.com/752793290801... #owlsintowels #owltober 💛🦉
Coda the Owl is wrapped in a plain white hand towel. Owing (mostly) to the wrap, he is oval shaped and nearly a borb (where borb = bird orb). He's much like the Owls in Towels logo but with desaturated plumage and cat-like ear tufts. His feather are the "gray-morph" variant of Eastern Screech Owls, peppered and bridled with black texturing that looks like granite rocks or tree bark. He has short ashy-white rictal bristles and longer black "whisker" feathers about his long and thin pale beak that hooks over the towel edge. A handler has him in their palms the way one might hold a new-born. He has anime-eyes: a pair of slate-grey peepers looking up at the humans with an expression of innocence and trust.

The image is of a four panel comic. The title reads "Poltergeist".
In the first panel we see a woman with a worried expression on her face. She says, "stuff keeps moving around my house."
In the second panel the same woman says "I'm terrified. I can't sleep."
In the third panel we see a ghost holding a candle and a pillow that reads "live laugh love". The ghost is zooming through the house.
In the fourth panel we see the same ghost hanging up a frame and thinking, "home decor is my passion".

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a high school basketball game. The home team is down 9 points, and some players are looking discouraged on the bench. The coach points to a player just out of frame and says, “flippers, you’re in!” Panel 2: the away team attempts a deep 2-point shot, possibly to beat the buzzer, which is blocked by Flippers, a whale who doesn’t even have his arms up. Panel 3: the game ends and the home team excitedly crowd around Flippers, who won them the game. A player from the away team looks stunned, with his hands on his head.
