Texas AG Paxton Declares Therapists Affirming Trans Youth To Be Illegal And Child Abuse The declaration echoes his 2022 efforts to target parents of trans youth with child abuse, and may force conversion therapy on trans youth in the state.

1. This morning, Texas AG Ken Paxton just released a chilling new declaration:

Mental health therapists, counselors, and psychologists must cease affirming trans youth - using their name and pronouns - or potentially face child abuse charges and loss of licensure.

Its a horrifying escalation.

Good example of the way anti-trans hate and antisemitism continue to be intertwined in American discourse. Once more subtly, now far more overtly.

The way sitting politicians can say this stuff about Muslims while facing zero consequences is an indication of just how entrenched Islamophobia still is in our institutions and culture.

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

Defendants’ Mass Termination also violated the Equal Protection component of the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause, because the Defendants selected grants to terminate based on blatantly discriminatory criteria relating to race, nationality, gender, sexuality, and other individual characteristics. For instance, Defendant Fox slated grants for termination because their description contained words such as β€œblack,” β€œLGBTQ,” β€œJew,” β€œNative,” and β€œimmigrant.” Finally, the Mass Termination was carried out by Defendant DOGE and employees, specifically Defendants Cavanaugh, and Fox, who lack statutory authority to terminate NEH grants or make other institutional decisions of NEH.

Plaintiffs say:

That's from the Second Amended Complaint.

If you approach most of the problems you face with the mindset, "I'll figure it out, I always do," and if part of "figuring it out" includes finding good advice from people who understand your problem, you probably *will* figure it out.

Trust yourself to do the work, then do it, basically.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Hey! We broke $5K right before starting day 2 of 21.

Thank you so much to everybody who has backed and shared this. Last year was super hardβ€”we lost a major supplier bc of tariffs, which gutted us economicallyβ€”and I had been really dispirited, really wondering if I still had it in me.

a thing that gets lost in very long fantasy timelines is the way that one person can live through many eras.

if the empire of evil lasts 1000 years, no one personally remembers anything else. if it lasts a more realistic 35 years, you have much more narrative potential.

"Can a man become a woman?" is not a question anyone asks in good faith as it's a complete misunderstanding of what being trans is. Absolutely a GOP op.
