a painful haunting dark post punk ballad, the kind The Birthday Party or Bauhaus would have killed to have released, written after the tragic murder of the 15-year-old greek student Michalis Kaltezas, who was shot in the back of the head by a cop on this day in 1985, during the demonstration for the yearly commemoration
of the Athens Polytechnic Uprising of 1973, a date which marks the beginning of the end
of the Greek military junta of 1967–1974.
The statement was written in response to a leaked government memo, which said the Trump administration was planning to classify gender based on a person’s birth genitalia. LGBTI rights activists have said the move will effectively ‘legally erase’ transgender, gender non-conforming people.
The statement asserts that inclusivity and diversity are important for businesses, and that systemic discrimination is harmful to both the transgender community, and to business productivity. It goes on to call for full inclusivity for full legal equality for transgender, gender non-conforming and intersex people.
The number of business to condemn the move by the White House now includes 49 enterprise businesses and 73 small and mid-size companies.
The businesses to have signed the statement collectively have over seven million employees, and have a collective annual revenue of more than $3.2 trillion.
✨✨ Ali was having NONE of it. Her vocals were better, Jem would just have to get over it. ”Showtime Syn…DEL!? AIEEE” — and with a soul shattering crack of thunder, Queen Sindel appeared, dragging a hassled Dazzler away whilst Jem crashed to the ground. “Truly outrageous… pah! You are pathetic and weak!” she goaded. Jem was sure to wedge a pink pump in her Netherrealm, make that both of them in fact. ✨ ✨The scrap you never thought you’d see, but always secretly wanted.

Exhibit #18256 in the “cis people use the word tranny against trans people of all birth assignments” argument: one of my students called me a “fucking tranny” today because he didn’t like me enforcing classroom rules.
