kosa. DO NOT IGNORE/SCROLL PAST

!!!TW/CW MENTIONS OF ABUSE, SUICIDE, HOMOPHOBIA, AND TRANSPHOBIA!!!

this is what im getting from kosa:

kosa is a bill that will make it so that minors will have to use their parents id JUST to go on social media, which means they are making a kid get their parents id JUST to go online for a little. they are also making it so that artists are shushed and lgbtq+ stuff is also being shushed. this means that MANY fandoms and other stuff containing lgbtq+ stuff will have to be 18+. it also means that PARENTS CAN SEE EVERY LITTLE THING THEIR CHILD DOES ONLINE. not only is this removing boundaries between kids and their parents, but it also means that this could HARM THEM MORE. IF THIS GETS PASSED, THEY CAN NOT SEEK HELP. THEY CAN NOT EXPRESS THEMSELVES FREELY. they will basically have to "tiptoe" while being online if this gets passed. i am angered by kosa, because this means that a LOT of fandoms i am in will be 18+, including moomins, which is literally one of the most wholesome and subtle lgbtq+ shows. i am pretty pissed off because of this, and there's less than 10 minutes until it strikes 12 AM here, which means that soon it will be the day that kosa is voted on AGAIN. please spread the word, there is not much time left. it is fine to reblog this after 12 AM, as long as you reblog before it is voted on.

No more closed doors for Russian transgender people

Severely impacting transgender lives, Russia's new law stops trans people from changing gender markers, getting affirming surgery, or access

In July 2023, the State Duma passed another law banning all aspects of legal and medical transgender transitions in Russia. This legislation renders it impossible for individuals to legally change their gender marker in documents, pursue gender-affirming surgeries, or access hormonal therapy. Furthermore, for Russian authorities, banning transgender transitions is a "question of national security".
