Not sure if you have been following this story (Megyn Kelly has touched on it), but a female high school basketball player recently refused to play when she realized there was a boy playing on the opposing team and she also went up to the boy and told him she knew he was masculine (I am not sure if she said man or boy). The school proceeded to sanction her for harrassment, and the case has gotten a lot of local and some national media attention. FAIR has stepped in to support the girl. One of our members informed us in today's peer-support group that a local podcaster has interviewed the girl and the boy, and he was able to provide a link to the latter (it sounds like the former is paywalled).
Here is the letter FAIR wrote to the Office of Civil Rights asking them to investigate this case: https://www.fairforall.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Civil-Rights-Complaint_Tumwater-Schools.pdf
Someone shared this with me who said it had been circulating in the Hasidic community. Will likely offend a lot of people these days.
Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry. She is blissfully clueless about politics and seems to be completely unaware of the culture wars. Working with her is a breath of fresh air. If you need a mood lift, I encourage you to watch this video we made together. Happy 4th, everyone! Wishing you fun/love/peace on this holiday. :) www.fionablueberry.com
Mamdani in office combined with a new MetroNorth train between NYC and upstate is very concerning for teens.
Don’t like abortion? Don’t get one.
Don’t support gay marriage? Don’t get gay married.
Don’t support sexism? Don’t be sexist. Oh…wait…that’s a system and you can’t separate yourself from that. And you also have to abide by whatever we say is sexism and therefore suffer the consequences of being in the system you did not choose.
