Reclaiming the past: was Kurt Cobain trans? https://medium.com/@dr.ow.sy/reclaiming-the-past-was-kurt-cobain-trans-6386d3e20bad
While we don't know there's certainly a lot there, from Kurt saying they wished they had breasts to saying they identified and felt more comfortable with women and over and over again saying they did not identify as male and also saying they thought their soul was gay.
Honestly I have wondered this a lot myself, and I think there are two reasons I spent my entire "masc" era in grunge attire: it was the clothing that most abstracted away the sense of self, and there was something about Kurt in particular that I felt a lot of attachment to. So maybe I'm projecting. But I have long wondered so myself.

@cwebber I wasn't a huge Nirvana fan, but their death hit me hard. I was just like, no. I wish you hadn't done that, Kurt...

@cwebber i also really like this piece of writing on the topic, which touches on how one reason this topic is so important to trans people is *because* kurt never explicitly identified as trans. we as a community *know* that we’ve lost siblings who never had the chance to realize who they were, because so many of us can see how that was almost us. and assumptions of “cis until proven otherwise” erase that.

Ma che fine hanno fatto quei portachiavi che si illuminavano quando partivano le chiamate?

@OKdad I already got my daughter to be completely turned off by Barbie dolls at age 3, totally rejecting them (after I explained to her that they have impossible dimensions that do not exist IRL and if a real woman looked like a Barbie she wouldn't be able to engage in a lot of fun sports, because she'd be too frail). Gotta do the same with Big Tech tools

NSO Group has spent at least $7.6 million to lobby in Washington D.C., according to this report.
And it's gonna continue to pressure the U.S. government to get removed from the blocklist it was put on in 2021, in an attempt to get into the U.S. market.
NSO has hired a lot of people for its lobbying efforts.

@Lognormal_guy I think as long as the personal and monetary incentives persist, that content will unfortunately continue to thrive. SO! **IMO** on the micro-level: talk to kids about this stuff and be honest about your feelings and concerns. And on the macro-level: challenge the incentives—the algorithms and the platformers. which is what I think @_elena is attempting to do!
