It's June, so here's my pitch: There's nothing more powerful than the truth.

But as the debates around trans people rage on, the truth about *us* is getting lost.

That's why I'm part of @transjournalists.org. Please share/ donate -- for truth and posterity.

The Trans Journalists Association urges caution in covering the HHS report on gender care With the recent release of a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services report on gender-related medical care for trans youth, the Trans Journalists Association urges newsrooms and journalists repor...

While this report presents itself as an apolitical โ€œreview of evidence and best practices,โ€ it deserves the same scrutiny and careful fact-checking as any government-produced document. Journalists should quote it only with appropriate context and after thorough vetting.

Hey there.

HuffPost went through some brutal layoffs this week. A lot of folks I deeply respect were impacted.

My book never wouldโ€™ve happened had it not been for the editorial freedom I got at HuffPost.

So! Iโ€™ll mail a signed copy to the first 10 people to give $100+ tonight.

I just donated $50 to @transjournalists.org because they do important work and deserve the support. I strongly encourage anyone who can match me to do so. It also feels better than becoming more overwhelmed from doomscrolling: www.transjournalists.org/donate/
