I kind of want to do family trees for Middleground, but the Carr/ Tellerman/ Harris/ Stratton/ Hogan family tree* would be a nightmare to create.

No seriously, 2/3 of the neighbourhood are distantly related by now. And we’re not even at Gen 3.

*(Joe Carr and Komei Tellerman are married. Joe has a son- Timothy- with Christy, who has three kids with Remington Harris. Andrew, one of them, is engaged to Komei’s adopted daughter, Brittany (née Parker). Christy’s son Timothy has married Ivy Copur’s plantsim offspring Poppy. Ivy also has an alien daughter, Cressida. Cressida’s father, Pollination Technician, has also fathered Pao Hogan’s alien twins, Castor and Stella. He also has a kid with his wife Andrea, a boy named Rufus. Got it?)

If you are 18+ and LGBT, GET OUT AND VOTE ON NOVEMBER 6TH. TRANSGENDER RIGHTS ARE IN DANGER.

The Trump Administration is planning to change the legal definition of sex to- “male or female, unchangeable, Unless by genetic testing.” Aka, trans people would be completely erased. They would have no rights towards discrimination, changing their gender, or even presenting as trans in general. If you aren’t planning to vote or you’re on the fence, PLEASE, for the love of god, get out and vote. We have to protect our community.

Trump Administration Eyes Defining Transgender Out of Existence

guys?? please. seriously, please vote. if you aren’t 18 or in the US, please signal boost this or other posts with resources on how to register.

if you’re not already registered, check and see if your state allows same-day voter registration. don’t have same-day voter registration in your state? check the in-person registration deadline for your state. some of them are much closer to election day than the electronic or mail-in deadlines.

IT IS NOT TOO LATE.

and if you don’t care about trans people (like so many anons have been super willing to inform me) please at least take intersex people into account. about 1 in every 100 people are born with bodies that differ from the accepted standard for male or female. this is their literal, actual biology, so no matter how you feel about someone identifying with a sex other than their “birth” sex, we have to accept the fact that there is more going on, BIOLOGICALLY, than just “male” and “female.”

I don’t usually reblog politics-related stuff, but I think this is a very important topic (and not only because I major in Gender Studies). Gender is NOT fixed at birth. There are always variables in everything. It’s the way evolution works. We humans like to categorize everything to fit into binary standards that we think suit our narrow mindsets, but this will always exclude someone or something. No matter how limited our categories/way of thinking are, nobody is going to stop evolution (and I mean that in the broadest term, not just biological) from happening and people need to accept that and move on and live their lives and let others live theirs the way they want!
And if you don’t know about a topic, please do not simply dismiss it/ have a negative opinion on it, but educate yourself, read about it, until you truly understand the thing you are thinking to be against before claiming to be.

Dad: Why?
Me: Blasting „I kissed a girl“ in a room full of 80+-year-old devout small-town Catholics might not go over very well…
