Why are there only a tiny handful of posts about CHLA shutting down gender affirming care in California, where it's illegal to deny care to a protected class? I know there's a lot going on. Do ppl just not know yet? When I search there are only 5 posts.

Nooooo!!!! Where's our AG Rob Bonta? He already said this would be illegal in CA. We rx the same meds for other reasons. We can't refuse them to a protected class. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Lol I just realized I am doing this: when someone posts utter doom I want to argue we can still fight back. But if they post that things aren't so bad yet I'm like no you're wrong, it's terrible 🤣🤣🤣. Apparently they need to be exactly in my zone of awfulness

All the political "spectrum" claptrap is giving me hives. There's no spectrum. It's not complex: either you stand for full human rights for everyone everywhere all the time, or you don't.

Wondering if I am the only one who gets a bluegrass ear worm whenever they meet a Ruby 😂. I have great restraint and do not sing it for them ... but if they _ask_ me to sing it, I am ready! I have practiced in the car 😂

If he actually has the Army on his side that's going to make things... more challenging. Never impossible but definitely harder.

I mean, not just "concerned"... but these days even hyperbole is too mild. When this affects what the Vaccines for Children program can supply, only wealthy parents will be able to afford or maybe even find vaccines. My patients will die. I am full of dread. ourworldindata.org/vaccines-chi...

Agree. Not just head-- local protester in 2020 had an abrasion on her calf but finally went to ED bc of pain-- whole giant rubber bullet buried in her leg. They missed me by inches more than once.

When the military is used against US civilians, will they follow Geneva Conventions? Or be like cops who intentionally target medics on grounds that we help protesters?

Ppl with weapons tend to use them, without rigorous safeguards. It's like food noise except with guns.
