AT is a trans woman, one of the more well known in the UK, who's acting career is taking off. This is the trans awareness thread.
Seems like they did the yearly post on the Stellantis w 68k followers account, not Jeep w 8m. Jeep just added it to their story. .
and that post is still full of hate. it’s proof that shrinking your company’s commitment to Pride doesn’t appease the bigots. and it shows the community that you’re not really committed to us
Yea in the past I kinda respected them doing it, knowing it would piss a lot of people off, even if I know it's just marking for them. But pushing it to the smaller account this year showed their true colors.
Ahh there it is. Most of their posts have less than 100 commnets, but like clockwork, this one is pushing 4k. I'll never understand why people care so much about others.
One thing I’ve noticed in some of those posts is that A LOT of the negative comments are Middle Eastern and Indian accounts.
Maybe controversial but I don’t really care about corporations social media presence or the comments on it as such. Corporations should shut up and pay taxes
Beloved local trans musician was murdered in Minneapolis. This is fucking awful. https://m.startribune.com/police-pe...-victim-of-violence-in-minneapolis/600375976/ Spoiler MINNEAPOLIS Woman charged following discovery of car she crashed on I-90 with Minneapolis murder victim in backara Tsai — Provided by Steven Seuling By PAUL WALSH , STAR TRIBUNE June 25, 2024 - 11:41 AM A 32-year-old woman was charged Tuesday with a felony following the discovery of a Minneapolis murder victim's body being found in a car the woman was driving when she crashed on a southern Minnesota interstate over the weekend. Margot G. Lewis, of New Liberty, Iowa, was charged in Olmsted County District Court with interference with a dead body in connection with the death of 35-year-old Liara Tsai. The criminal complaint makes no mention of whether Lewis or someone else killed Tsai, who worked as a techno/electronic DJ at various events and also was active on behalf of the trans community. Lewis, who was arrested about 7 a.m. Saturday at the scene of the crash on eastbound Interstate 90 south of Eyota, appeared in court Tuesday morning and remains jailed. Court records do not yet list an attorney for her. ADVERTISEMENT The Southern Minnesota Medical Examiner's Office identified Tsai on Tuesday as the victim but has yet to disclose how she was killed. A Minneapolis police officer's report filed Saturday night classified Tsai's death as a case of murder, noting that the weapon involved was a knife or other "cutting instrument." The complaint noted that a deputy at the scene saw large wound to her neck around the carotid artery. Minneapolis police became involved in the case Saturday afternoon when the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension requested that officers do a welfare check at Tsai's home in the 700 block of E. 16th Street. Officers searched the residence and saw "a scene indicating violence," a statement from police read. According to the complaint: A deputy sent to the crash scene saw the subcompact car — owned by Tsai — in the center median and Lewis sitting in a folding chair that was provided by a bystander. The deputy determined that Lewis was speeding when she hit a guardrail that surrounded the pillars of an overpass. ADVERTISEMENT The deputy opened the car's passenger-side back door and saw Tsai's body on the folded-down seat. It was wrapped in a bed sheet, blanket, futon-style mattress and a tarp. She was cold to the touch. "It was apparent [to the deputy] that the death ... was not a result of the traffic crash," the complaint read. Upon her being booked into the jail, Lewis "did not respond audibly to detention staff or investigators," the complaint continued. Steven Seuling, who stages events and would hire Tsai as a DJ, said the two of them spoke on Friday ahead of her being scheduled to work an event Sunday at the Pourhouse in downtown Minneapolis. ADVERTISEMENT "She said a friend was coming to stay with her," Seuling said of his friend for the past six years or so and added that she moved to Minneapolis from Iowa last winter. "I checked in with her by text on Saturday, but she didn't answer, which was very unusual for her." When the time came for her to play [Sunday] and she didn't show up, "we were really freaking out. It was very unlike her not to be there," he said. Seuling described Tsai as "community and trans activist. She was very, very much more than just a DJ." Police are asking anyone with information about the death to call CrimeStoppers at 800-222-TIPS (8477). Tips can also be submitted at CrimeStoppersMN.org. All tips are anonymous, and information leading to an arrest and conviction could result in a reward. ADVERTISEMENT Paul Walsh is a general assignment reporter at the Star Tribune.

I believe the U.S will have it's first transgender Olympian this year. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna159741
I wish Against Me! was still touring - I managed to see them in 2016 and it was an incredible show. Transgender Dysphoria Blues (where the last song "Black Me Out" if off) is an absolute banger of an album.
ended slavery before the US. Got a woman president before the US. Did this. Has socialized medicine. Remind me which is the shithole country.
Very unrelated but seeing the thread title pop up randomly reminds me of how we had infrastructure week once a month from 2016-2020.
received this today and likely will have to help present to staff before school starts. living here is so demoralizing. i’ve worked with kids in the past who absolutely would have been harmed in some manner by family if i were to out them. Spoiler
Childhood depression and suicide rates are already bad enough. So let’s just encourage these kids to keep everything bottled up and hidden because that’s extremely healthy.
Every trans woman I know is into some combination of crystals, witchcraft, or astrology. Including friends who were not into those things prior to transitioning. Is there a reason for this?
honestly, from my experience those are just sort of basic things women are frequently into. but for trans women specifically, those are very feminine-coded interests. so i think it makes sense for people who are newer to expressing femininity to gravitate to things that are overtly feminine.
