The spirit of Diogenes is alive and well

In opposition to all politicians who are attempting to criminalize the existence of and supporting of trans children. Supporting trans children is not child abuse, it's vital. Trans children need supportive parents and communities in order to survive and thrive. Parents who support their children are not criminals--and neither are trans children.

(Image description: five images with black backgrounds and black text inside white boxes; the text in the images reads 1) "Supporting trans youth is suicide prevention not child abuse", 2) "Supporting trans children is good and respectful parenting", 3) "Access to transition related healthcare saves lives", 4) "Trans youth need supportive parents, educators, healthcare providers, and communities to thrive", 5) "Support parents and caregivers who support their trans children".)

COVID is slowly becoming a “third world” disease. While first world countries are hoarding vaccines, having doses for populations many times their size, third world countries can’t get any because pharma companies want to sell to the first world countries first. Even then, first world countries will receive them first. While rich countries recover from COVID, they will forget about the pandemic while many other countries live the absolute worst moment of the pandemic without being able to vaccinate their population.

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. As a Holocaust Historian, I have specifically devoted myself to working on the history of women and gender in the Holocaust, and bringing those histories ever-closer to mainstream historical memory.

So, I’d like to link you all to a few pieces of writing I’ve done on the topic. An 11-part post series about Vladka Meed, a Jewish woman who smuggled explosives into the Warsaw Ghetto in preparation of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. A profile of Hannah Szenes, a Hungarian Jewish paratrooper who worked behind Nazi lines in services of the SOE (Special Operations Executive, same as Peggy Carter and Noor Khan).

A thinkpiece about how we misuse the memory of Anne Frank.

An assessment of how Holocaust memory is shaped by male experiences, and an analysis of what we miss through this centering of the male experience.

HELP URGENTLY NEEDED.

see that forecast? our central air conditioning just broke down.

me and my roommates have six cats between the three of us, and it's going to be a couple of days before we can get it repaired.

repairs are going to cost $2000 and we've had to get hotel rooms to keep the cats (and ourselves) at a safe temperature.

PLEASE help if you can, and please share this.

So proud of my mother for doing her own research after I sent her that meme. A sign she hung in her car window.
