Trans people are nonetheless confronted with stigma, discrimination, intimidation, and harassment in many Muslim-majority societies. [Source]

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people in Indonesia face legal challenges and prejudices not experienced by non-LGBTQ residents. Traditional social norms disapprove of homosexuality and gender transitioning, which impacts public policy. [Source]

Now I admit I’m a cis white man from ‘Murica, and my understanding of foreign affairs sometimes lacks, but it looks to me that transgender people get the shit-end of the stick in both Indonesian and Muslim cultures.

…a Muslim transgender woman…

Pretty sure this is the actual reason.

Try search for a video and finding a non-YouTube result. Yeah, Pinterest and YouTube suck, but so do our search engines.

Governments are like the people. They tend to react only when it’s them that gets hurt. Until then, it’s thoughts, prayers, and “stop buying coffee”.

Officials are now reviewing the Tesla sales data to determine if any irregularities occurred during the program’s final days.

8,600 Teslas 4 Locations in 3 days (one reported 1,200 sales in one day) $43 mil in rebates ($4 mil in one day)

Let’s be generous and say the cheapest Tesla is $40k before any rebates. That’s $344 mil in sales, with an average of 2,150 Teslas per day.

I’m pretty sure it’s obvious there are irregularities.

It shows. They won’t necessarily have memories of this — being so young — but you are shaping their very core personalities, and that’ll last a lifetime.

In store my passkeys in my password manager, which has a desktop app to access passkeys. What are you using that you have to always use your phone?

 

Why you should know: The ‘a’ vs ‘an’ conundrum is not about what letter actually begins the word, but instead about how the sound of the word starts.

For example, the ‘h’ in ‘hour’ is silent, so you would say ‘an hour’ and not ‘a hour’. A trickier example is Ukraine: because the ‘U’ is pronounced as ‘You’, and in this case the ‘y’ is a consonant, you would say “a Ukraine” and not “an Ukraine”.

Tip: when in doubt, sound it out(loud).
