Like not to be a bitch but so much medical care regardless of if it’s gender care or not is “lets see how much you can withstand suffering before we apply a solution“ instead of actively working to reduce suffering first by working to find a solution that the sufferer can manage.
I just find it difficult to fathom that anything beyond “I know my body and how i feel in it better than you“ can be rationalized unless youre some kind of control freak, bigot, or predator.
This is gonna be a spicy take but I feel like the investment in multi-income source production workers and choices is the biggest make or break for a multitude of indie show productions even beyond wrestling, but there’s a distinct resentment that this work is well…labor someone has to do.
1. Diversifying your sources of income. At the end of the day, your ticketing can only bring in so much. Do you monetize your streams or VOD source? Do you have merchandise in house and pushed online? Do you monetize secondary content like reels and video posts?

“why are these queer kids buying up merch and making gay art of a franchise owned by a Trump voter” because they were raised in an environment where consumption *is* viewed as a valuable personality.
I think a lot could be said about how fandoms are very much structured to be consumerist without any critical analysis of capitalist production, and how this is the logical end result of that.

I was in a doctors office for one and we were fine but we had a lot of folks who were working in the office who lived in Belmont who experienced that 16 year old tornado and they were having a bad time
The National Weather Service confirmed a second tornado touched down in Northern Arizona last week. These are the first to hit the state in nearly 16 years.

shout out to the asshole on here who has stakes in ATProto who was begging people to not to think about the prosecution of Meta over their clear interference in the political economy. We’ll get you too buddy.
Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

In 2005, Time Magazine did a cover story on “The Battle Over Gay Teens.” It’s the same handwringing we see now from “concerned” adults on behalf of young people. “Kids are disclosing their homosexuality with unprecedented regularity–and they are doing so much younger.” time.com/archive/6596...
Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

democrats think its cheating to actually promise (and do) things people want to win elections, and doing GOTV efforts
It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.
