This is a post on Jill’s blog. She has one of the most outstanding blog I have ever had the privilege to read in my life. But as grand as this story is and it is grand no questions asked, I wonder if the feelings directed to those different might be able to be used for another group of people, desperately struggling for their own rights.

Non-Binary Student Nex Benedict Dies After Being Beaten in High School Restroom
Libs of TikTok’s Chaya Raichik Threatens to Sue Critics Blaming Her for Partial Role in Teen’s Death
Stephen Miller Is Excited
Again Ten Grain at Mock Paper Scissors has written an important post every one should see and understand. This is what these cult maga want, they are complete racist bigots. Notice that they never talk about stopping immigration from Europe or Canada. tRump once whined that we needed more people from Norway to move here, but I ask why the hell would they? They openly praise the idea of concentration camps for the undesirables, which means anyone who is not white straight cis and Christian. Hugs. Scottie
Jon Stewart on Tucker Carlson’s Putin Interview & Trip to Russia | The Daily Show
One thing that Jon did not point out. While Tucker was going on how low the prices are in Russia, the price for the small amount of groceries he got which he claimed was a weeks worth … really small eaters there, was over half the monthly income of the average Russian. So Tucker blew half the money the average Russian earns on one week’s food alone. I think as hard as things are in the US, we still have it better. By the way, Stewart’s comedic timing and ability is still spot on, I think. Hugs. Scottie
Let’s talk about Oklahoma vaguely….
What Beau is referring to is an N.B or transgender teen who was brutally assaulted in a girls’ bathroom. Notice that the attacks on trans and non-binary people in bathrooms got much worse at the urging of right wing hate preachers / politicians. Notice it is the rhetoric is always that trans people will hurt your daughters, but the facts show that is wrong. It is the trans people being hurt by cis people. For needing to use a toilet. I did not post the quote but in the first article it mentions Ryan Walters, Oklahoma’s superintendent of public instruction, is facing intense scrutiny over his ties to Chaya Raichik, the figure behind the far-right Libs of TikTok hate account, and for their outspoken stance against transgender rights.

The grandmother, Sue Benedict, told The Independent that her child had been the subject of months of intensifying bullying that began earlier in 2023 after Oklahoma’s Republican-led government banned transgender students from using school bathrooms that align with their gender identity.Benedict told their grandmother that they and another trans student had fought the other students in the bathroom, according to the Independent. The teen told her they’d hit their head on the floor. “Nex did not see themselves as male or female,” Sue Benedict said. “Nex saw themselves right down the middle. I was still learning about it, Nex was teaching me that.” https://news.yahoo.com/oklahoma-transgender-student-dies-allegedly-125629309.html

What is nonbinary?
A nonbinary person experiences their gender identity and/or gender expression outside of the binary categories of “man” and “woman.” Other words may be used by nonbinary people to describe their gender more specifically, including agender, bigender, demigender and pangender.
Some nonbinary people call themselves transgender and consider themselves part of the transgender community, while others do not.
“Nonbinary is an umbrella term that encompasses many different ways to understand one’s gender,” according to GLAAD.
What is transgender?
Transgender describes a person whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth.
A person can be transgender without having gone through a transition — the process in which a person brings their gender expression and/or their body into alignment with their gender identity. A transition can include a social transition, legal transition and medical transition.
What is cisgender?
Cisgender refers to a person who is not transgender, and whose gender identity aligns with the sex they were assigned at birth.

Police investigating after 2 men seen on camera urinating on pride flag, saying anti-gay slurs
Once places of higher learning were about gaining knowledge, acceptance, and tolerance, learning to live with other young adults. Widening one’s horizons. But that was before red state legislators tried to force hate into the schools at all levels, including higher education. White fundamental Christian white supremacists are pushing for more open intense deeper racism and no tolerance for anyone not straight cis and regressive right wing. Hugs. Scottie
Columbus police are looking into the incident as a hate crime, in which one of the men can be seen urinating on an LGBTQ+ pride flag in front of a home.COLUMBUS, Ohio — Columbus police are looking into a hate crime that happened last week near The Ohio State University’s campus last Thursday. Two men were caught on camera saying homophobic slurs and vandalizing a pride flag in front of a home in the Weinland Park area of Columbus.
“It was shocking but not surprising,” Sarah, who lives at the home, said.
Surveillance video from the home’s front porch showed the two men approaching the front door. One of them pulled down his pants and started urinating on the LGBTQ+ pride flag on display on the porch. The other man appears to be taking a video of his friend with his phone. 10TV blurred the faces of the men in the video because they have not been criminally charged.
“There’s honestly been a whole range of emotions, there’s been some fear, some anger,” Raven, who also lives at the home, said.
The man wearing blue can then be heard yelling homophobic slurs as his friend laughs.
He then banged on the doors before taking off running.
“I decided to post something online and the police found us,” Zoe, who lives at the home, said.Columbus police officers arrived at their home within a couple of hours of posting the video online on Sunday. An LGBTQ+ liaison who specifically handles hate crimes joined the officers,
Zoe, a mother of two, said she shared the video to set an example for her kids, who are both trans.
“I’ve got a 12-year-old and a 14-year-old and we’ve had the gamut of school experiences… This isn’t something that they should expect as normalized in their life,” Zoe said.This incident is also taking a toll on their family.
“Honestly, I’ve been a little more anxious, I’ve been checking the camera feeds, I’ve been looking outside more I’ve been more cautious,” Raven said.
“We all fear that this might just be the start of things and it could get worse,” Sarah said.They hope that sharing their story spreads awareness about the threats they often face from the people in the community.
“None of us are looking to ruin these kids’ lives,” Sarah said.This family said they simply hope it can become a lesson learned.
“Not just that what they did was wrong but why it was wrong and how much it genuinely hurts people,” Sarah said.They added this incident won’t stop them from keeping their pride on full display, for themselves, their kids, and their community.
“We’re not looking for trouble, we’re not looking for a fight, but we are looking to uplift our community and be a safe space for our community,” Kieve, who lives at the home, added.Police have not said if they have identified the people in the video, but they said they are investigating the incident as a hate crime.
In the video interview, the homeowners say the police came to them after they posted the video themselves on social media. Maybe one of our sleuths can find that original UNBLURRED video?
The news report said they posted it to Reddit I checked the post is easy to find. The videos are blurred only on the crotch. This photo was posted of the two men.
