The Baftas honoring the best films of 2023 will take place Sunday. Since the first ceremony in 1949, no Black women have won the award for best actress. This story from Variety underscores the considerable work that remains regarding the UK’s “persistent issue with embracing diverse performers.” https://flip.it/8mI8jb

Hi Fedi Family,
In 2008 Californians voted for Prop8 that defined marriage as the union of one man and one woman in the California constitution. While this was defeated in courts this draconian Prop8 language is still in the California constitution. Justice tHomas and the right wing SCOTUS is openly hinting at destroying precedent and trampling rights. If they overturned Obergefell - the Prop8 language in the California Constitution will act as a “trigger law”, raining havoc on queer families like mine across California.
Please spread the word to vote “YES” to repeal Prop8 (2008) from the California constitution in Nov 2024. Talk to your friends, family and colleagues about it.
Boosts appreciated.

Is being ‘woke’ a badge of honor?
Historically, the word was used as a warning to be aware of racial injustices.

Gabby Petito went missing in the summer of 2021 and was later found to have been murdered by her fiancé. Her disappearance generated enormous publicity, which at the time was described by activists as "Missing White Woman Syndrome," where white crime victims get more attention than non-white ones. Now, Gabby's family and the foundation they created in her honor are campaigning for every missing person to get the same level of publicity as she did. Here's an interview from People magazine with her father Joe.
For the first time in Japan, a local government recognized same-sex spouses on a residence certificate as a common-law marriage. Now, it looks like other governments may follow suit in a move that could pressure Japan's central government to act on marriage equality.

#Introduction
1. Reality is the only morality. I reject all symbolism and emotion.
2. I know good people from every religion, tribe, race, culture, ethnicity, and social class. To protect each group, ethno-nationalism is required.
3. All of our environmental problems can be cured through Half Earth.
4. Natural Rights > (human | civil rights).
5. Eugenics is necessary to ensure genetic health.
6. People need some positive transcendent goal or they are merely reacting to fears and appetites.
I oppose #DEADS:
* #Democracy
* #Equality (#individualism)
* #Atomization (#dualism, #multiculturalism)
* #Diversity
* #Socialism

I think it's time for a re-introduction!
Hello fediverse! I am an admin for Veganism.Social, VoIP engineer, sim-racer with @ethixracing, gamer, foodie, and long-time ethical vegan. I'm originally from South Florida, but now living in the Orlando area as of 2020. I'm usually not a very social person, but I'm trying to change that! I want to make a difference in the world, and one person cannot do that alone, so connecting with others is essential.
My political and ethical views are all centered around equality, compassion, and environmental protection. I am anti-capitalist, but I also understand that it's impossible in the current state of society to avoid participating in it. So I try to make the best decisions I can with the options given to me in order to minimize the harm it causes.
Humans and animals all over the world are facing troubling times, and thinking about it has taken a massive toll on my mental health. Now, I am trying to focus my efforts on things that I can change, rather than spreading myself too thin and not helping at all. This doesn't mean I'm ignoring all of the other suffering, but simply trying to prioritize based on what is within my reach.
Thank you for taking the time to read, and if you feel like we have something in common, give a follow! I look forward to meeting like-minded individuals and organizations that seek to make the world a better place!
For a bit more info about myself and my sim-racing efforts, check out this interview I did with @veganeasy last year.

#DEI must change. Respecting free speech means recognizing that everyone has the right to express their opinions, regardless of race, religion, or ideology. #Equality #HumanRights

CORRECTION POST ON CANADIAN LGBTQ HOTLINE FAKE
However, the number listed, 1-877-330-6366, does not connect to a Canadian government service. It connects to Trans Lifeline, a nonprofit, peer-led support line that has served both American and Canadian transgender people since 2014. No new Canadian hotline has been created for LGBTQ+ Americans.
