Argentina JUST PASSED a groundbreaking gender identity bill!!!
From now on, people will be able to change the name and gender on their ID without needing psychiatric permission or any body modifications. Furthermore, anyone who does want hormones or surgery will be able to access them for free through the public and private health system.
It was passed unanimously today by the Senate
UNANIMOUSLY
Argentina is just getting more awesome by the year. Countries that aren’t Argentina need to take note.
WAY TO GO ARGENTINA!
Resident buzzkill here, but Americans should take note. This is what it looks like when nonthreatening, socially progressive legislation is used to distract people from serious subversions of civil liberties.

Tree, Line Series by Zander Olson
“This is an ongoing series of constructed photographs rooted in the forest. These works, carried out in Surrey, Hampshire and Wales, involve site specific interventions in the landscape, ‘wrapping’ trees with white material to construct a visual relationship between tree, not-tree and the line of horizon according to the camera’s viewpoint.”
Recently opened, thru June 29:
“Hypnotherapy”
John Brill, Llyn Foulkes, Pablo Helguera,
David Lynch, Jill Spector & Aleister Crowley
Kent Fine Art, 210 Eleventh Ave., NYC (bt W24th & W25th Streets)
a group show that “gives David Lynch fans a chance to revisit the iconic filmmaker’s alarming artwork a year after his solo turn at Jack Tilton. But that’s only one, conspicuous though it is, of its strengths. What really matters is the opportunity to experience a museum-quality exhibition that approaches the pitfalls of latter-day surrealism with as much intelligence and refinement as this one does.“
