This is horrible. It only reinforces the cruelty and inhumanity of Trump's immigration policy.

This is unconscionable. But it's BAU for the MAGA Christo-Fascists and Trump.

My thought for sometime has been that Democracy only works if we collectively are committed to making it work. That means even if we don't like the results. And that means resisting leaders who try to tear it down. Even if we like everything else about them (which is unlikely).

I'm saying good riddance to Twitter/X. I have never paid for membership. But having an account adds to the number he bases ad charges on. I can't support a man who is trying to destroy our government. This shot is a last memory before I delete my account.

1. Major news in transgender care. Germany, Switzerland, and Austria have just released their trans youth care guidelines. They strongly recommend trans youth care and slam the Cass Review in England. Europe is not "pulling back" on trans care. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Who would like to read a ten tweet (skeet?) summary of my latest article "Towards a Theory of Cis-Supremacy". For those too tired to read a whole academic article, here's a very short summary thread on cis-supremacy. 1/12

This merits further sharing. Democrats are upset that their leaders are not standing up to Trump in more visible ways. The press reports this. And yet the press are now critiquing Democrats like Rep Crockett for not just sitting there and listen to Trump spew soundbites.

I think this is an important interview to have available. We will likely learn the outcome of U.S. vs Skrmetti in June.

Transgender women like Sylvia Rivera were among the first to fight back against repeated police harassment in the original Stonewall riot which this monument commemorates. Not mentioning them (or their Queer fellows) should be unconscionable.

Don't let us get talked out of democracy. And tell your congressional representatives to stand up for their power to appropriate funds.

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

We warned people. I’ve been debunking RFK Jr.’s antivax conspiracy mongering since 2005. None of this is a surprise to me. If confirmed, he WILL go after vaccines hard. He’s lying when he claims otherwise.

States are justifying their bans of transgender health care on a 388-page report called the Cass Review. Supreme Court justices have invoked it. Today, in @nejm.org, Craig Konnoth and I conclude the report is unsound because it departs from standards in medical law, policy, and practice. 🧵(1/12)

The "controversy" is literally just that a trans woman is an RA. That's it. That's what's got Utah politicians up in arms. They want to make us unemployable and our existence next to (if not outright) illegal. www.hjnews.com/news/local/u...

Pollock parkrun in Glasgow had a massive turn out yesterday and it sounds like a lot of events did 🥳 I wrote this earlier in the year when bigots tried to bring parkrun into their obsessive transphobic hate campaign. Inclusivity and community won 🧡 www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/opinion/6...
