I’m not upset if someone on SNAP wants to buy chips.
There are very wealthy people in this country who profit off Americans who have cancer.
That does upset me.
Sweetie, Roy Cooper vetoed three anti-trans bills as governor despite knowing the GOP-majority legislature would override his vetoes. He is a stalwart champion for LGBTQ rights.
Also: you're saying this to a Christian trans woman. I think I have a pretty good idea of what I'm talking about.
Nothing to see here. Just atheists Lawrence Krauss and Richard Dawkins comparing the acceptance of transgender people to telling anorexic and obese people they're healthy.

What BS logic from the Supreme Court.
Trans care bans don't discriminate on transgender status. Rather, its GENDER DYSPHORIA that they target.
Not too many gender dysphoric cisgender people.
To trans kids and their families: I am so sorry the Supreme Court and so many elected Republicans don’t think your health and your rights should be protecting.
Just like with reproductive care, they think the decisions you, your family and your doctors make are their business — not yours.
The Supreme Court of the United States voted 6-3 in favor of politicians being able to take life-saving, medically necessary, doctor-prescribed, parent-approved health care away from trans kids.
The so-called party of “parental rights,” “small government” and “freedom” just spat on all of that.
BREAKING: In a 6-3 Roberts decision, the Supreme Court has ruled that Tennessee's ban on gender affirming care is not subject to heightened scrutiny. This decision will strip millions of trans people off their constitutional rights.

"Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice we're willing to make."
They acknowledge the harms of trans youth being left untreated and then greenlight banning treatment. It's psychotic wanton cruelty.
What ICE is doing is so massively cruel and immoral, and standing up against it is one of the most important things our politicians (and regular people) can do right now!!!

He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.
He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.
This is political intimidation.
Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was a thinly-veiled Russian asset, can you name one thing he’d be doing differently?

Was going for a warpflame sort of look. Used the wrong wash.
Live and learn, that’s why I’m practicing, after all!
The five figurines now have whites where their eyes go, setting up for the irises to be added later
The ponies now have the starts of their eyes! Irises will be filled in for later, I’m beat and at a stopping point for the night!
4.5 hours of painting on my first night back to painting! Just listening to podcasts and chilling.
The first run of silver on the manes and tails of the five MLP figurines.
The mane and tail of the the leftmost pony are white. The manes and tails of the four on the right are silver.
From the first thin coats of silver on their tails and manes to the much fuller silver after multiple thin layers!

The law could not be more clear; no member of Congress may be denied access to a facility where ICE is detaining someone, and they cannot be required to schedule in advance. Surprise inspections must be surprise.

Bot-like tweets aside: At least they're being more honest about their immigration objectives. This was never about "law and order," coming in the "right way," or cracking down on "criminal illegals."
It was always about keeping brown people from "sh*thole countries" out.
Oklahoma receives about $3 billion more in federal spending than it pays in federal taxes. That's nearly $8,000 per Oklahoman--only 9 states have a higher per capita balance of payments. Subsidies from MA, NJ, WA, CA, and a few others are how OK remains a "low tax state."

I'm so glad Thomas Friedman is using his platform to say this. I've heard this exact thing many times from my Jewish friends. Israel's actions are putting the Jewish diaspora in danger.

Getting shot for taking video of a cop. Being at the whims of a dangerous roving gang of militarized police who don’t like a spotlight on their violence ain’t great, man.
Keep filming anyway
MURRAY: If the Navy wants to hire a qualified candidate for the role, but that candidate happened to vote for or donate to Democrats, would they be hired?
HEGSETH: Senator, there has never been a litmus test for hiring welders
M: Well, that is what they're being asked. We need to drop the politics
So where exactly are they supposed to use the bathroom?!

We don't have the luxury of moving on. Cis people can just dip out after they face the slightest pushback.
A senior administration official told me that the funding is not being cut, rather reallocated away from "radical grooming contractors" — or the trained counselors who provide LGBTQ-specific support — to general 988 funding.
