House Spending Bill Now Bans Medicaid For Transition Care For Adults The provision was stricken late at night to appeal to hardline conservatives.

1. Terrifying news for transgender people across the United States. In a late night development, the House Spending Bill was amended to ban transgender coverage for transgender ADULTS on medicaid!

A manager's amendment removed the words "for minors."

And the fact that Greek law on human rights and equality seems progressive compared to most of Europe nowadays is a lot scarier than you'd think if you don't live here

For some reason a lot of people believe Greece is LGBTQI+ friendly because since 2017 you can legally change your gender without having srs and since February 2024 you can marry your same sex partner. I am guessing ILGA Europe is not measuring what living in Greece is actually like, just legal stuff

Apparently RFK is trying to walk back his bullshit comments by saying he doesn't mean autistics like *me* are bad and awful and need to be irradicated; no, he just wants to get rid of the "low functioning" autistics and let me just say FUCK THAT

I'm not more worthy of existing than autistics who 1/

A shame but thanks for letting me know so I can at least stop searching for it

where did those pride/trans flag spray cans come from 👀

While I've never heard of Miss Rebecca, I've heard of your gf so she must count :P

You just have to join a clan in codewars.com/users/edit, make sure to unclick the checkbox if you want to join both clans (the vanilla one and the one with the twitch link)

I will be giving a public speech on the history of trans people in technology soon, if you have a favourite trans programmer or researcher please hmu or mention them!

Hello! I tried tech twitter but I was late to the party, it was already going downhill when I joined so I couldn't stand it. Bluesky seems like a nice change of scenery.

I love logging on to bsky.app

good for him! work-life balance is so important

I also buy used laptops exclusively. Can't really afford to spend over 200 euros on one, and old bussiness class laptops go for pennies on the dollar.

The codewars clan ladder climb is addicting. #100Devs I am gunning for that #1 spot
