Wir sind besorgt! Denn dieses Wahlergebnis verheißt auf vielen Ebenen nichts Gutes, einige Beispiele haben wir aufgezählt. ABER: Wir sollten uns davon nicht entmutigen lassen. Wenn wir als starke Zivilgesellschaft auftreten, wenn wir uns auch international zusammenschließen und noch besser vernetzen mit Gleichgesinnten, zum Beispiel mit anderen Klima- und Menschenrechtsgruppen, können wir gemeinsam viel bewegen.

Even now, coming out can be hard, and that's in countries where #LGBQ+ people have rights!
The fight for #TransRights is far from over.
@skykiss Leonard Leo's six corrupt, biased & rebellious SCOTUS agents, working to scrap every SCOTUS precedent & ruling based on Reconstruction Amendments — especially the Fourteenth Amendment — like eg Roe v. Wade, Obergefell v. Hodges etc., are simply misplaced on the Supreme Court of the United States.
And they're exhibit A, that lifetime tenures for justices & judges do in no way guarantee judicial independence — which Leonard Leo, Catholic Knight of Malta, Federalist-Society-éminence grise & dark-$billions juggler , on top of it intentionally broke by putting 5 of the 6 majority justices on the bench, and surely not, because they are alleged to be angels of impartiality.

A new portrait of American teenagers in crisis - #POLITICO
In 2021, 1 in 5 high school students said they witnessed violence in their communities, and 3.5 percent said they carried a gun. Nearly 9 percent of students said they’d been forced into sex in their life. A third of female students said they had considered #suicide in the past year, and over 13 percent said they’d attempted suicide.
A sweeping series of surveys of U.S. high school students released Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have an urgent message for parents and policymakers: America’s kids are in crisis.
> Broadly, the national survey, which is conducted biennially, revealed two important shifts in high school student demographics: Just over 49 percent of respondents identified as being part of a racial or ethnic minority group, compared to 48.9 percent in 2019 and 46.5 percent in 2017, and about 25 percent of students identified as #lgbq compared to just over 11 percent of students who identified as lesbian, gay or bisexual in 2019 and 10.4 percent in 2017.
Black female students were more likely than white female students to report having attempted suicide, and American Indian/Alaska Native and Black male students were more likely to report having attempted suicide than white male students.

Young Joe, an artist & illusionist, is smuggled out of Nazi-invaded Prague to join his cousin Sam in New York, just in time for the start of the comic book revolution. There is a brilliant girl, many sleepless nights drawing superheroes & the struggle to get his brother out of Prague. And there is what happens later. And later. A wonderful & compelling novel. Highly recommended.
