I think most people who are sounding the alarm about democracy assume people understand why it's good and important but I kinda doubt it. And if we follow Russia's example most people may not even notice it gradually disappearing

Honest to god, the legal orgs and attorneys need to sue one of the hospitals in one of these blue states with civil rights protections for not providing trans care to trans youth. The lawyers at these hospitals only understand legal threats. They are complying with Trump because they're scared.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

If you’re a blue state legislator wondering how you can protect trans people right now, allowing birth certificates to be changed without listing them as “amended” so that we can still get passports is high on the list.

DC Children's Hospital has just contacted me to tell me my reporting is "inaccurate" that they have stopped providing gender affirming care. How is it inaccurate? They still provide "mental healthcare." Read my response.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

thinking about when kamala was asked her opinion about gender affirming care she said “i think we should follow the law” when the law in several states already was to deny that lifesaving care. trans people have known for months—YEARS—that it was spiraling to this point no matter what. now it’s here

Did you know? Black Friday is named in honor of Rebecca Black, who invented Friday in 2011.
