Their name was Nex Benedict.

Nex Benedict, not whatever name the news keeps saying.

Nex used He/Him pronouns according to friends, not whatever the news keeps saying.

Nex was the victim of a hate crime. Nex's death was because of a hate crime. Nex's death was not an accident, it was a hate crime.

Don't make me tap the sign

Nobody left behind bitches. Nobody thrown under the bus for our benefit.

Get your intersectionality fucking right.

A lot of you genuinely believe intersex liberatuon comes second hand to trans liberation and that trans people matter more. Intersex oppression is just an additive to trans oppression and shouldn't be a main focus. And I'm getting sick of it. I am sick of intersex people trying to make ignorant peritrans people listen just to be met with a bs analysis of oppression about how we "all suffer" so it [intersex oppression] doesn't really matter.

Perisex trans people need to realize intersex people are a minority in their own right and the oppression we face is not transphobia misdirected.

I know I said I would only be talking about Palestine this week, but I need to talk about this as well.

This is somewhat political and also a personal rant.

I stated on @crystalsandbubbletea (My main for those who are unaware) that I am a minor with ADHD, Autism, and possible anxiety who is part of the LGBTQIA+ community and is also Indigenous American (Ponca Tribe). Why am I mentioning this?

Because of the 'Kids Online Safety Act', AKA 'KOSA'.

If this bill gets passed, I will be unable to post Legacies or gain access to the things that inspire me to work on Legacies. I created Legacies because I wanted people like me to have a series to relate to, I also created Legacies to debunk multiple harmful stereotypes.

Here comes the personal rant part:

When I realized I was part of the LGBTQIA+ community (I was approximately nine years old at the time), I tried so hard to find pieces of media I could relate to, specifically media with queer neurodivergent non-white people. Unfortunately I didn't find that much media that covered those categories.

Fast forward to some time later (Specifically when I was fourteen), I ended up deciding that I can make a series that people like me can relate to. After multiple rough drafts in my brain, and multiple scrapped storylines, I came up with Legacies, a series that starts off as an alternative history of the world and then eventually becomes a piece of fanfiction. I eventually decided the first protagonist would be a nonbinary polyamorous lesbian living in the Ottoman Empire, and after some more time, I decided their name would be 'Alex Adil Emre Yukime'. I then started planning the second protagonist, this protagonist would be Hungarian-Palestinian that's nonbinary, polyamorous, trixic, demisexual and demiromantic (Note: All the arcs Berat is in takes place in the 2500's).

I was ultimately satisfied when I finalized the storyline, and was happy.

(Rant ends here)

Unfortunately that happiness wouldn't last long when I learned about KOSA. If KOSA gets passed, Legacies will be unable to reach it's targeted demographics, and that will mean all my hopes and dreams were for nothing.

I won't be the only one affected, many more people will also be affected, specifically LGBTQIA+ youth. We will be unable to find anything LGBTQIA+ related because it will be flagged as "Not safe for minors". Trans people are already facing censorship (Looking at you, Tumblr staff) and this bill will make it worse.

So please, call and email your representatives, and tell them to not let KOSA pass. This bill is censorship and censorship is a form of facism.

Edit: I kept feeling a disturbance in the force and I finally figured out why. I forgot one of my favorite screenshots:

edit 2: I found this one from earlier today iirc it was too long to get the name in the screenshot and I forgot the name of the user but very relatable

Never forget that we wouldn't have our rights without black trans people.

If you're a 'LGB without the T' person then you're a goddamn hypocrite. There is no sugarcoating that.

Remember Marsha P. Johnson and the many other trans people who fought for LGBTQIA+ rights.

⚠️HELP I HAD A STRAIGHT DREAM😭😭😭😭⚠️

[saaraahka]

Sometimes I think about 11yo me wearing bra and panties for the first time and how i just felt it made so much sense and made me feel like a freak but just at peace with myself. Fast forward a year to when sometimes I would wear while going to school with all the mixed feelings. If only i could understand then that me being myself would also lead to so much more pain and bullying and shame for even trying to exist and how it would effect the rest of my life in a mostly bad way. It still to this day majes me so sad how the only thing ive wished for my entire life have been to be just like any other girl. Yet it always been so very clear ill never be.

As I said I would @runningheadless part 1 of the post I refered to. I plan to share part 2 (which will be less laughing at posts and feelgood posts I found while scrolling the g witch and sulemio tag) as a wrap up since the poll happens to end on Suletta/Sulemio Sunday(s) tomorrow.
