NWSL fan base and players proving their mettle this week — now your turn NWSL and NWSLPA — and reinforcing why it's the league I follow closest.
Trans people belong everywhere. And attacks on trans women consistently hurt cis women of color. WE are bound up in each other's struggles.

Data point for fellow US passport holders with an X gender marker:
Yes, the passports are still valid for travel amid the preliminary injunction against the regime's anti-trans policies.
However, on October 14th the software systems were updated to only process M or F, so nonbinary folks are being sorted into a binary during border crossing.
And as I learned today on updating my info with TTP, we can no longer use Global Entry.

Blood Lines is a simple yet surprising story of three generations of Métis women and their discovery of family through estrangement. It was written, directed and acted by Indigenous women who all speak the Michif language in the film. I found it enjoyable and somewhat relatable, even though I know less about this side of my family.

I stopped shopping online at Target when it stopped being supportive of the LGBTQ+ community. So when Target announced layoffs today, I looked to see if the press mentioned this.
Reuters, 2nd paragraph: "The move, unveiled by incoming CEO Michael Fiddelke in memo to employees on Thursday, comes at a time its share price has lagged rivals and the company has faced backlash for pulling back from its diversity, equity, and inclusion policies."
https://www.reuters.com/business/world-at-work/target-plans-lay-off-1800-employees-wsj-reports-2025-10-23/
CNN, 3rd & 4th paragraphs: The layoffs, which come ahead of the critical holiday shopping season, are the latest sign of struggles at the Minneapolis-based company. It has been been reeling from slumping sales and fierce blowback to its retreat on DEI programs.
Its decision to end some of those initiatives angered supporters of diversity and inclusion policies, who felt blindsided. Target had staked out a reputation as a strong corporate supporter of DEI.

In Waterloo Region last week, there were threats of violence made against multiple 2SLGBTQIA+ events, at least some of which ended of being cancelled over safety concerns.
Undeterred by this hate, the Waterloo Region 2SLGBTQIA+ community is holding a Public Pride Dance Party! It's on Monday and starts at 5:30 at Waterloo Town Square.
Here are details, gleaned from Spectrum's account on another social media platform:
"Come out and show your love and support for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community with a public dance party. This event will be a family-friendly expression of joy. Come with your brightest colours on, and ready to move. When hate gets loud, we get louder!”
I’m guessing that allies would be welcome! 😀❤️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
