Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.

Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

it’s helpful to know i couldn’t have done any more for her than i did, bc vet medicine has no real treatment for this for bunnies (unlike dogs/cats). rabbit veterinary care, an under-researched hellscape right to the end

i know i made a lot of jokes about my rabbit being my biological child who i birthed myself but turns out she had an inflammatory condition which so closely mirrored mine that the vet unknowingly referenced my own human condition to me while explaining her death so who’s laughing now

kind of crazy that if you have enough money and don't like what you see in the media, you can just buy up every film studio, news station, and social media app and change it

Polymarket has created a market that would monetize a nuclear attack amid increasing concerns that bets are happening among government insiders who can make military decisions.

What stage of the apocalypse is this?

I understand the instinct to donate to orgs that are helping trans folks flee red states but let's not forget about the orgs that are still fighting for trans folks in red states.

To do this, anti-trans lawmakers in Kansas moved fast to change the law, overrode the governor’s veto, and pushed for the legal changes to go into effect nearly immediately. That kind of powerβ€”to void gender on official documents, to compel gender conformityβ€”is terrifying and it will not stop here.
