Former Republican Rep.: GOP Should Abandon Culture Wars on Trans | Opinion As with many complex health decisions involving children, a bit of humility is in order.

former gop congresswoman barbara comstock today called on her ex colleagues to abandon attacks on trans youth in an op ed:

β€œare transgender americans such an alarming reality to some republicans that it mandates overruling the conservative reluctance to violate the privacy of families?”

it’s wild that. the public thinks there’s a β€œmake groceries cheaper” button. the the president can press

there is a β€œmake groceries MORE expensive” button. that the man they elected is pressing over and over again

Having a Great Time Being Transgender in America Lately

By Jackie Sabbagh

It is day infinity
of everyone wanting me dead. People are having fun
bringing lemon squares and automatic artillery to the anti-trans community meetings.
Divorced legislators harangue
about pedophile cults and surgeried infants and what ever happened to forever ago.
I am more beautiful than you and I would like to be loved.
I am getting concerned
about the monomaniacs who make their entire lives about deadnaming and transvestigations:
obviously it’s working but aren’t you exhausted, don’t you remember
when someone loved you without knowing what you were?
I am eating shortbread on a patio table overlooking the enormous green ocean.
Somewhere an octopus is being eaten by an octopus and not panicking.
Black dress to the floor, red acrylic nails, silver teardrop earrings, waterproof mascara.
I am excited to do this for the rest of my life and be terrified.
I hear a noise behind me and I don’t turn around.

to the spur was our Mecca. There we had one last swig of vodka to toast our success.
So, had we found the soul of Houston? Yes, I would have to say that we did, such as it is. It's ugly, preposterous and inhuman, interspersed with all-too-rare pockets of serenity and beauty. It smells like roasting corn, raw sewage, fish sauce, frying hamburgers and exhaust. (Heavy on the exhaust.) There's sex and God at one end of it and plain old sex at the other. It's chic and tacky, humble and proud. It's Vietnamese, Mexican, Korean, black, white, Muslim and Christian, macho and effete, alive and dead, Red State and Blue. It sounds like the whooshing of cars, and if you close your eyes, you can delude yourself into believing they're waves lapping at a beach. It's the American dream, and it's a prison. And it's got the best sweet tea. Great!
Walk! Super! Indeed.

the fucking enforcement arm of the federal government is launching a war on integration an effort to push tens of millions of americans to the bottom of an arbitrary hierarchy of value and yeah, it pisses me off to see nominal allies say β€œoh yeah maybe they have a point”

Someone should make a database that allows you to click on a location and see in detail how Trumps cuts are hurting you directly. What medical center closed? What schools aren’t being funded? What programs are shutting down?
