Betty Chapman has taken my classes for a while at the Women’s Institute of Houston. She is a fountain of knowledge about Houston Women. Really amazing woman in her own right.

Do we really have to do all the β€œyear in review” shit now? I lived through it. That’s enough.

We already travel out of state for her gender affirming care. The provider is internationally prominent and has connections with providers who may be able to help if the meds become unavailable in the U. S. I’m so grateful that people are organizing at a grassroots level to help.

I’m the parent of a trans child and am terrified of losing access to her meds. Am I correct in understanding that this project does not actually provide any medications, but it provides kits with medical supplies necessary to self-administer the meds?

Look, maybe it’s my southern semi-rural upbringing talking here but if there are unidentified drones flying over my house and neighborhood night after night, I’m loading up my 12-gauge with 3.5” Ts. I’m a decent wing shooter.

Last week a mother to be
bled out because the law is cruel
Yesterday, a beloved father
breathed his last choked breath
after cancer care was
deemed a waste of money
This year, tens of thousands
have died from illness and
hunger and violence
So forgive me, rich man's family,
if I do not mourn him

Unless you have a trans child or have spent lots of time talking to parents of trans kids, you should maybe not take strong opinions on things you don’t understand.

I’m in Texas. My trans kid is okay at school so far. But we are hatching plans for if we have to leave Texas or the USA to get her care. We go out of state now as it is.

You know your industry is evil when your CEO gets assassinated by a masked gunman in broad daylight in NYC and people are like…well, yeah, I guess it makes sense.

I keep thinking about those congresspeople kneeling in the rotunda wearing kente cloth scarves, very performative. There has been no loud, visible, unified support for Sarah McBride from the democrats. It’s a real disgrace. That is your colleague! They are bullying her in your faces. And silence!

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.
