Trans influencer filming in the women's room at Disney World is everything that's wrong with this selfish movement
If you're not perpetually online, perhaps you've never heard of trans influencer Lilly 'Tino' Contino.
Lucky you.
Unfortunately, if you are a waiter just trying to do your job or a woman in a Disney World restroom just trying to do your business, look out.
Consider this your creep alert.
Since 2022, Contino's 400,000 TikTok followers have witnessed his journey from hirsute man to linebacker dressed as a '50s pin-up gal — all while terrorizing unsuspecting wait staff for misgendering.
7 Trans influencer Lilly 'Tino' Contino posted a Tiktok series rating women's bathrooms at Disney.

Yes, there are curls, kewpie lips, facial feminization surgery (also chronicled) and crop tops. But when Contino speaks, the influencer's voice is lower than his regard for the hospitality workers tortured for his content.
But Contino, who claims to be a 'trans girl on a mission,' has an even more disturbing and narcissistic social media project: lurking in the women's bathrooms at Disney theme parks, snapping mirror selfies and rating the experience depending on if he was misgendered or complimented on his outfit.
Essentially, did the women affirm his identity?

Meanwhile, many of the photos show women in the background, sometimes with emoji over their faces.
One Tiktok post starts with an image of Contino in Minnie Mouse ears and a hair bow meant for a 5-year-old girl, taking a selfie that shows three women in the background. The caption: 'Ranking every women's bathroom at Disney World.'
The song on the post, 'When You Wish Upon A Star,' is the perfect encapsulation of this delusion that a dude can simply bibbidi-bobbidi-boo into a lady.

It's a Venn diagram of the worst the internet has to offer: infantilized Disney adults and performative trans content rolled into one.
'Got misgendered right before this pic so the vibe was off,' Contino wrote on one image. Perhaps being a man carrying a giant selfie stick in the ladies' room killed the vibe. Just a wild guess.
In another Disney video, Contino delivers a preamble about using women's rooms in Florida as a trans person. Three minutes later, the influencer gives blow-by-blow commentary including excruciatingly unnecessary detail about how he 'peed standing up.'
In another photo with a woman visible in the background, Contino's wearing Minnie Mouse ears decorated with the trans flag and flashing a peace sign. 'Got complimented on my fit and there was no line for a stall,' reads the caption.

Another says: 'had a friend with me so I felt safe.' The inverted victimhood is this influencer's entire shtick.
Contino is the one who is unsafe, you see — even while poking others, not for his security or freedom, but for content. Clicks.
It's all one big provocation.
Like Dylan Mulvaney, Contino's online persona is about being trans. It's also so trolling, so hyperbolic that, for a while, I simply assumed the idea was to paint the trans community in the most loathsome light possible. But it seems that Contino is that awful.

There's also an OnlyFans account — for only $8.99, Contino promises to shows 'everything' — with an eggplant emoji in the bio.
More proof that this dude does not belong in a women's bathroom.
While the demand for affirmation from complete strangers is bizarre, Contino's need to be affirmed by other women in the loo is dangerous.
But the influencer isn't alone in bathroom activism. There are also videos of trans activists having dance parties and sit-ins in ladies' rooms to protest Rep. Nancy Mace's proposed policy that Rep. Sarah McBride, who is the first openly trans person in Congress, use the men's room.
7 Another photo in Contino's review of the women's toilets in Disney shows women in the background.

It's as if they think toilet stalls are the next Greensboro lunch counters. But they are not.
It's awfully bizarre to fetishize a toilet and access to a place where women simply want privacy. We want to get in and out. We do not want some creep in Minnie ears taking photos and posting them for the masses like it's an act of public service.
But it's quite the opposite: a disservice to other trans people.
7 Trans influencer Lilly 'Tino' Contino regularly berates restaurant workers for misgendering — and posted this side-by-side comparison showing his former self.

This is why women don't want to simply open their spaces, no questions asked, for any Tom, Dick or Harry claiming to be Lilly, Dylan or Sally.
And why would Disney, which has loads of rules and regulations regarding inappropriate behavior and wardrobe, allow this invasion?
Contino can choose how he wants to live — posting 'spicy things' on OnlyFans and hassling waiters — but that cannot include using private women's spaces as the set for his perverted reality show.

The centrepiece of the Paris Olympics is making a comeback
A year after it captivated crowds during the Paris Olympics, a centrepiece of the summer Games is making a comeback. The iconic helium-powered balloon that attracted myriads of tourists during the summer Games has shed its Olympic branding and is now just called the 'Paris Cauldron.' It is set to rise again into the air later Saturday, lifting off over the Tuileries Garden. (AP Video: Oleg Cetinic)

Where to Eat, Drink and Chill in Kauai's Tastiest Beach Town
Before traveling to Hawaii for the first time, I spent hours browsing through Instagram and TikTok foodie posts. Gathering ideas for all the delicious meals I'd eat, I had high expectations for the food in Poipu Beach, located on the south shore of Kauai. As it turns out, this island's food scene impressed me even more than expected. From nicer, more sophisticated spots like Red Salt Restaurant to quick bar bites at Kalapaki Joe's, check out these best Kauai food and drink spots on your next visit. These must-visit restaurants in Kauai won't let you down. I love Indian food and will make a point to grab it during any trip. This tucked-away restaurant, "That Indian Place", has excellent food and will adjust to your spice preferences. I ordered the butter chicken (mild) and the chicken sagwala (mild), along with some garlic naan bread. The local atmosphere and outdoor dining patio really made this place stand out as one of my favorite spots to eat throughout the whole trip. Top menu items Mango LassiButter ChickenChicken Tikka MasalaChicken SagwalaPaneer Tikka Stop by Brennecke's Beach Broiler as you stroll along Poipu Beach for a lively, vibrant atmosphere. Locals and visitors alike know this top spot as one of the best places for food and drink on Kauai. While crowded, you can grab some phenomenal bites here as well as tropical-style frozen cocktails. I loved the desserts here too. If you plan on doing some appetizer or bar hopping along the main strip, definitely make this restaurant/bar a must-visit spot. Top menu items Seafood Pupu PlatterMango MadnessLava Lava FlowPineapple Rum Upside Down Cake If you want to try a Loco Moco, stop by Red Salt Restaurant, attached to the beautiful Ko'a Kea Resort. This spot served the best Loco Moco I had while in Hawaii. A Loco Moco is a Hawaiian favorite comfort food, made with white rice, gravy, a hamburger patty, and topped with a fried egg. It sounds interesting, but trust me once you try it, you'll want to order it time and time again. The ocean views from this restaurant also set the scene for a nice meal. Top menu items Lemon Pineapple PancakesLoco Moco Acai Bowl Unlike other islands with numerous national chains, Kauai offers a more locally inspired dining scene. This laid-back, down-to-earth island provides numerous options for fresh, local seafood, including mahimahi, ahi tuna, and ono. The island also has many traditional Hawaiian plates to try. I highly recommend trying at least one classic Hawaiian dish, such as the Loco Moco, during your visit. You'll also find spam musubi almost everywhere, another classic food in Kauai.

For back-to-back champ Panthers, the celebrations will continue before an important offseason begins
SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — The Florida Panthers' Stanley Cup championship festivities have included an all-night celebration at a popular beach bar; crowd surfing, pole climbing and impromptu karaoke at a Miami nightclub; a Brad Marchand appearance at Dairy Queen; a few team dinners and a boat ride. That's just so far. They insist they've got more in them. 'We're not toning it down," defenseman Aaron Ekblad said. "We just won two Stanley Cups in a row. We deserve to have a good time.' The Panthers also partied hard after winning the franchise's first title a year ago. But some players have described those days as a surreal whirlwind of first-time experiences. This time around, the celebrations are different, as the reality of what they accomplished set in. 'There's a different feeling to it,' coach Paul Maurice said during the team's exit interviews on Saturday. 'Last year was more of a dream. ... That's the right word. It was a dream come true. It was euphoric. This year, it was an achievement. It was hard. It was hard all year. It was hard at camp. There were just so many places that if we had broken at that point or failed we would've all understood — 'OK, we did our best. We just couldn't get it done.' We never let that happen.' The coaches' celebrations, Maurice noted, have been much more subdued compared to last year: They had their first post-championship dinner as a staff Friday night. They joined some players on a boat ride. 'I haven't had a hangover yet,' Maurice said, 'so way ahead of where I was last year.' Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov said they're giving themselves 'permission' to celebrate more freely this year because they have already been through the experience. 'And don't get me wrong, it's still amazing,' he added, 'but now everyone knows how to sit back a little and enjoy it, because last year was so hectic. Like it happened to you for the first time ever, and you had been dreaming about it for so long.' The Panthers in fact celebrated so hard that the Stanley Cup itself got a little banged up. The silver chalice that has endured bumps and bruises throughout its 131-year existence was cracked at the bottom of the bowl the night of Florida's clinching Game 6 win over Edmonton, though Barkov noted the team hasn't received any harsh reprimands from the keepers of the Cup or the Hockey Hall of Fame. 'I think they've seen worse,' he quipped. 'I think every year they have to fix some part of it. But yeah, don't be stupid. Don't take it to the ocean, stuff like that. We should know the rules by now.' The Panthers' championship parade will be on Fort Lauderdale Beach on Sunday — one of their last opportunities to celebrate together before the players disperse for the summer and general manager Bill Zito begins an important offseason. Free agency begins July 1, and while a good chunk of Florida's core — including Barkov and stars Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Reinhart — are already under long-term contracts, a few key contributors are set for free agency in Marchand, Ekblad and playoff MVP Sam Bennett. All three players have expressed their desire to stay in Florida. Bennett, who led all players with 15 postseason goals, said at the Miami nightclub E11even that he's not leaving. Marchand has publicly petitioned Zito to give him a contract. Ekblad, who was drafted by the Panthers in 2014, said Saturday that his representation has had conversations with the Panthers on a potential deal, but 'nothing material yet.' 'I've spent 11 years here,' Ekblad said. 'It's home, and I expect it to be home." Tkachuk, who will play in his fourth season with the Panthers next year, said he believes Florida's window to compete for titles remains wide open, and he hopes to compete with as many pieces from this year's run as possible. 'You're going to have a different roster each and every year," he said, "but hopefully the core of guys, we can continue building. With that being said, we've got some unbelievable players that are up for contracts that I hope they get every single cent they can because that's what you want for your best friends. It's time to cash in for some of those boys. Hopefully it's here.' ___
