Is it homophobia, sexism, or a lesbian thing?

Have you ever looked at a character on TV and thought “They’re just like me”? Maybe it’s because you look similar or because they act like you. Maybe they share your problems and insecurities. 

 According to the Williams Institute, 3.4% of women identify as queer and those women. Recently, shows featuring queer people have become more popular, giving these women a chance to see themselves represented. And that would have been the case if there wasn’t a trend of shows starring queer women getting canceled with little to no explanation.

 It seems the reason why this is happening can quickly be narrowed down to three possible causes: homophobia, sexism, or a specific target set at queer women.

New bill would fund wildlife rehabs

STROUDSBURG, Pa. — Every day, Wilderz at Pocono Wildlife near Stroudsburg takes in injured or orphaned wildlife.

A juvenile great horned owl is one of the newest residents receiving treatment after coming in infested with insects and unable to lift its head.

The center relies on volunteers and donations to help these animals.

State Representative Tarah Probst hopes to change that with House Bill 1522. It would help fund licensed wildlife rehabilitation centers throughout the state. 

“Everything they do besides their time costs money, and you know you can’t rely solely on donors. You just can’t, Volunteers are hard to find right now because, Lord knows, people are working two jobs to make ends meet. So this is something that the state can afford. They should take care of it because it’s our native species,” said Rep. Tarah Probst, (D) 189th District.
