First non-binary mayor “of any city, anywhere” wins election at the age of 22 in Wales

crossdreamers:

Here’s a great story from Pink News:

Owen J Hurcum, 22, has been elected mayor of Bangor in  Wales, Great Britain, making them the “first ever openly non-binary mayor of any city anywhere”.

Over at twitter, they published the following comment:

“When I came out two years ago I was so worried I’d be ostracized by my community or worse. Today my community elected me Mayor of our great City. The youngest ever Mayor in Wales. The first ever openly Non-Binary Mayor of any city anywhere. Beyond humbled, Diolch Bangor“

Owen, who identifies as genderqueer, agender and non-binary,  thanked fellow councillors for their support when facing online abuse.

BBC reports:

Despite being “difficult” and “disheartening”, Owen said they found the stupidity of some of the abuse they received funny.

“They may say I have low testosterone or I am effeminate or I look like a woman,” they explained.

“I am like, ‘oh my God, you are trying to insult me by calling me feminine, even though I am explicitly telling you that I have feminine traits, that I want to celebrate because I am non-binary?’

Baby elephant thought man was drowning and rushed to save him

HE JUSTA BABY 🥺

A baby the size of a truck 🥺

I love elephants so much.

When I was in Nepal, I went to an elephant sanctuary and saw this little guy. The little bundles of grass in his front of him were “sandwiches”, brown sugar and salt wrapped in sweet grass, and he was swaying from side to side while he ate, like a little food dance.

Reblog for someone to make you a dozen sandwiches for this weekend’s little happy food dance.

We just knew.

As a reminder, this is what she looks like:

Also I hope everyone knows that Miette was fostered before she was adopted, and her foster mom loved that little kitten so much and always hoped she’d gone to a good home. this tweet got so popular that she recognized Miette and reached out to her current mom, and was able to share previously unseen baby pictures

You mean, she saw Miette was kicked like the football and did nothing to help put Mother in jail for a thousand years? I am appalled.

her!!!

Baby Miette!!!

I really hate those stupids posts that are like:

“What about REAL monster girls??? Not just weird humans?? like real huge MONSTERS??

With giant sharp claws and big sharp teeth?? Where are those???”

You’re thinking of bestiality. You want to fuck a T-Rex.

If it passes the Harkness Test, I’m down.

For the uninformed:

This isn’t an item or even a game mechanic but I think y’all know you need the Harkness Test at some point or another in most campaigns

here’s my issue with the harkness test

The takeaway here is that Scoobert Doo is a fuckable monster

look, the harkness test isn’t whether a monster is ATTRACTIVE, it’s whether fucking the monster is UNETHICAL. “do I find scooby doo hot?” is a separate question from “IF I find scooby doo hot, would fucking him constitute bestiality?” 

questioning myself after making this

Steve Buscemi was in Spy Kids 2??

That’s your big takeaway from this post??
