"Unauthorized"? techcrunch.com/2025/05/15/x...

An amazing open letter from scientists and experts to the U.K. Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC). This preceded the EHRC decision to delay public consultation on their proposal to gut TGD human rights in the statutory Code of Practice. docs.google.com/document/u/1...

trump's bigotry is not just propaganda, it's a return to Jim Crow in the U.S. and an open endorsement of apartheid in South Africa...

Who could've guessed joining a make-believe Resistance against an Evil Empire would ever happen in real life?

Cite it! Yet another peer-reviewed article that debunks the lies and falsehoods of the notorious U.K. Cass Report (and, by extension, much of the U.S. Wormbrain HHS Review). "We have demonstrated that the Cass report’s application of EBM to GAC for children and young people is deeply flawed."

Imagine if Pres Obama had stood in front a massive Saudi flag- Trump would say he's Muslim and that is all Fox News would be talking about for a week!!

Shame on the editorial board of Bezo's propaganda rag, the Washinton Post. This malicious endorsement of the HHS hit piece on TGD adolescent health care demands "randomized and controlled studies that compare the effectiveness of the medical path with that of the best alternative psychotherapies."

None of us are safe, as trump's ICE terrorists assault and batter U.S. Reps. Robert Menendez, LaMonica McIver, and Bonnie Watson Coleman and beat and arrest Newark Mayor Ras Baraka while inspecting an unlawful for-profit ICE detention hellhole. None of us are safe in this fallen nation.

There is a common misconception that mandatory psychotherapy is required by the WPATH Standards of Care (SOC) before access to endocrine or surgical care that may be needed by Trans and Gender Diverse (TGD) individuals. They were phased out between 1998-2011. Gender diversity is not mental disorder.

A nice summary of responses from medical and mental health authorities debunking the Wormbrain Report, by Mira Lazine for Erin in the Morning. www.erininthemorning.com/p/roundup-ex...

What transmisia feels like every day. It's not about "fear" of Trans people; it's about deliberate, targeted, homicidal hate.

The American Academy of Pediatrics responds to the Wormbrain Report: "...AAP is deeply alarmed by the report released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) today on medical care for transgender and gender-diverse individuals and the process that informed its development. "

Thanks and kudos to WPATH and USPATH for their rapid and firm response to the murderous manifesto of hate from the trump/rfkjr HHS Dept: "This report misrepresents existing research and disregards the expertise of professionals..." Link to pdf: wpath.org/wp-content/u...

trumpism's 400-page manifesto of malice and lies about health care for Trans and Gender Diverse people dropped today. Here is the covor that the regime doesn't want you to see...

Good Night World

“Those same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on our defense of Black people and trans kids and immigrants — instead of their own lack of guts and gumption,” Pritzker said. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

While The Guardian (like the NYT in the U.S.) has a spotty history of anti-trans sensationalism for profit, today's piece, quoting my friends and colleagues Stephen Whittle and Christine Burns, is an important read. The impact of this human rights collapse on elder TGD people is often overlooked.

"This is the way."

The raw evil that Trans and Gender Diverse people are up against: A leaked memo from trump's Attorney General, Pam Bondi, that details their plan to dismember access to medically necessary care for Trans and Nonbinary adolescents and, ultimately, adults. www.lawdork.com/p/read-ag-bo...

This piece by Trans journalist Katelyn Burns brightened my whole, souring disposition. "To any TERFs who are looking for the return of their loved ones after years of transphobia: nobody shunned you because they thought you were wrong, they shunned you because you're an asshole."

My humanity is not “ideology,” “theory,” “nuclear annihilation,” or “colonization.” My existence is not “unaware,” or “dangerous.” My survival is rooted in self-acceptance. My intersectional communities celebrate difference. The basis of my family is love.

My advice to all of my readers: WAIT to send in your passport update right now. As soon as we get class certification, which I will announce to all of my readers, that will be your time to rocket speed submit your passport applications. Right now, you should likely wait.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Update to my previous post on missing web content about adolescent Transgender health care on the Mayo Clinic web site. I'm hopeful that this is not a retreat from science and evidence-based care that saves young Trans and Nonbinary lives.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, the anti-science daytime television quack that trump appointed as Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), released this April 11 statement and letter of lies and disinformation about Trans and Nonbinary health care to Medicaid agencies. #bloodonhishands

The transmisia nightmare deepens in the U.S. state of Arizona, as Planned Parenthood Arizona suddenly shuts down medically necessary care for Trans and Gender Diverse patients, in fear of retribution by the trumpism regime.

Zero. Zero days before he exempted phones, chips, computers and other tech.

The Senate Judiciary Committee testimony of Sarah Wynn-Williams, Former Director of Global Public Policy at Facebook/Meta, is bone-chilling, with profound implications for intersectional Trans and Gender Diverse communities. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFCM...

If you watch just one streaming TV episode this week---this, John Oliver debunking lies and disinformation about Trans athletes... "It is not just about denying trans women the right to play. It's about denying them the right to exist." 25:30 www.youtube.com/watch?v=flSS...

More horrific news from the U.S., with the shooting murder of Ms. Kaitoria Bankz, a Black Trans woman, community organizer, and staff member of The Knights and Orchids Society in Alabama.

Caller To my show from Canada said same thing.
