As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

The disappearance of Larry Summers from public life cannot happen fast enough.

The fun thing about looking back at Larry Summers’ entire career is seeing that his entanglement with the Epstein class wasn’t a fluke - he actually dedicated his whole life to advocating for them.

It’s #PinkShirtDay up here. A day when we say “you can sit with me.” “You can pee in the stall next to mine as long as you wash your hands.” “You will treat people with respect or you can leave.”
Bullying is not okay. It’s especially heinous when it’s over something a person can’t control.

Michael B Jordan 'disgusted by racial slur at BAFTAS as parents left in tears' Michael B Jordan was with Delroy Lindo on stage to present an award at the Baftas when John Davidson’s outburst shocked the audience.
