It's my second taco joint in Atlanta and it's hilarious that no one can get a carne asada taco right.

Exclusive: Phoenix-Based LGBTQ+ Clinic Stops Providing Gender Affirming Care to Minors Prisma Community Care said they were forced to stop providing gender affirming care to minors in order to comply with grant funds to continue their broader work.

Another scoop: looks like Prisma Community Care was forced to do the same.

SCOOP: Phoenix Children’s Hospital has secretly ended part of its gender-affirming care program for minors under 19 years old, complying with President Trump's executive order that was signed last week.

It’s almost like it’s trying to set the evidentiary bar that already exists beyond defamation, because actual malice only requires clear and convincing evidence. What I’m unsure of is if this would wipe out any defamation suit brought by someone, and that higher bar would have to be met

Eh, I don’t think it cuts that way. I’m reading this pretty plainly. If someone accuses a parent of abuse, and lodges a complaint, and that is not true, then there are financial damages. That seems to be pretty cut and dry. What’s confusing is that it’s coming from a side that has made false claims

Making this even more confusing as to why ~she~proposed this. I’m running through the implications and…it can’t bode well for someone, say, falsely accusing an uncle of β€œgrooming” his nephew.

Can someone make sense of this for me??? Wendy Rogersβ€” who made wild threats of child abuse against parents who took their kids to drag shows and told other parents to call CPSβ€”just produced a bill that would have essentially made her liable of that exact thing?

I'm currently trying to write a narrative and I'm stuck thinking, "how should I craft this to make someone who DOESN'T normally trust us, learn to trust us?" I've been doing this a lot frequesntly, primarily with family members in mindβ€”as if I'm writing for them.

For anyone who knows, I a run a nonprofit newssite serving AZ's LGBTQ+ community through accountability news. But we do most of our impact through our events, because people seem to really care about learning in person. We're starting 2025 with our new Office Ours event next week. Join if you can!

Hi there! Welcome to my Bkuesky! I'm the founder and editor in chief of LOOKOUT, and a longtime fan of anything bear (both human and wild forest) or taco related. Follow me for bad takes and even worse clips of me gorging on tacos across the world!

I have surgery in three days so in case I die, I making Kofteh Tabrizi, Khaleh Joosh, and homemade naan as my last meal. There will be leftovers. In the event of my death, don't touch my food.
