We've reflected on our actions since Tasmania's Electoral Commission claimed our latest HGA breached the Electoral Act, and decided to make amends by editing the video to comply with Tassie laws. We hope we can still be allowed to visit Tassie one day. Link to video in replies

also yeah if you're upset that nsw police have been uninvited from the parade, can i suggest you read the report of the special commission inquiry into lgbtqi+ hate crimes, which found that officers in the force were โ€œindifferent, negligent, dismissive or hostile"

On Saturday night we shared Lotus the bandicoot, and said if we hit $60k by Sunday we would share the Lotus celebration face. We are at $68k and smashed that goal by $8000 by Monday! Lotus the bandicoot can't contain himself. Keep up the great work team! pozible.com/profile/project-โ€ฆ

ashton kutcher co-founding a campaign to end child trafficking but writing letters of support for his serial rapist bestie is such a great encapsulation of the way people love to fight against their imaginary idea of what abuse is but not what it actually is
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis wrote letters in support of Danny Masterson ahead of his rape trial calling him a โ€œrole modelโ€ and praising his โ€œexceptional characterโ€ decider.com/2023/09/08/ashtoโ€ฆ

For the first time, a randomized controlled trial has been published regarding gender affirming care. The treatment group receiving care saw a 55% reduction in suicidality, compared to 5% of control. I detail the results in my latest article. Subscribe to support my work.
