My heart breaks for trans kids, who do not deserve this obsessive animus that adults are directing at them.

Given the news out of SCOTUS today about healthcare for trans kids in Tennessee, now is the time to support orgs doing good: Trans Youth Emergency Project: southernequality.app.neoncrm.com/forms/60 Transgender Law Center: transgenderlawcenter.org/donate/ OUTMemphis: www.outmemphis.org/donate

Justice Sotomayor's dissent in Skrmetti (which she's now reading from the bench) is deeply pained, accusing her colleagues of abandoning "transgender children and their families to political whims" and badly damaging "bedrock" principles of equal protection. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

I know we all know this but it’s always so important to remember that transphobes who claim to fight for women’s equality generally proceed from the belief that women are inferior to men across the board they wouldn’t treat trans women like they had cheat codes if they respected cis women’s skills!

This is just fear and cruelty. Transgender people are literally only 1% of the population. People can't even name a time when they engaged a transgender person let alone a single instance where they cause them any harm. GOP spent $215 million on this manufactured panic.

When I needed a hysterectomy due to severe endometriosis & adenomyosis, I was repeatedly denied Told I “might want kids.” Told I “might meet a man who wants kids” I was left disabled & bed ridden, yet the system continued to try & save my diseased uterus against my will 🧵

What is common knowledge in your field but shocks outsiders? It is good and proper in a well-kept library to dispose of books.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

And the person who turned up to support him with no notice is the Muslim dude who have cross endorsed each other and who the msm has been going into overtime to cast him as antisemitic

More Dems should be cursing out the opposition publicly. They've painted themselves into such civil timidity that a few outliers saying "weird" gave their own consultants palpitations. Let Warren tear up on camera and call Mike Lee a "fucking asshole." Show a pulse against these escalations.

Public education is the one tangible ladder we give children out of abuse and poverty. Dumping money into public education to hire more staff to provide the mental health and social/emotional services that abused kids require is the most surefire way to improve our society.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

what is it called when people who aren't cops and don't have a warrant drag you away, because I don't think "arrest" is the word

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? It's ok to get rid of books. Even libraries get rid of books on the regular. It's even ok to recycle them.

Suggest masking in groups and around strangers (you know if you need to with family or friends.) You don't want this, says a good friend who can barely swallow water. :(

I feel like the conversation around Defund in New York is missing the point - The NYPD wasn't defunded, but the cops responded as thought it was, refusing to do their jobs and creating the appearance that they were was to the incurious. Here's the data from traffic enforcement:

“MeToo went too far!” was the rallying cry in elite opinion and polite society basically the minute #MeToo became a thing. And eight years later, the few prominent “victims” of MeToo who we’ve been told had their lives irrevocably destroyed by the cancel mob are back without ever showing contrition.

Anyone who says this doesn’t remember that $2,000 in savings won’t cover one single episode of getting dangerously dehydrated while sick and needing two bags of saline solution.

Every time I post about the astronomical numbers (many, many billions) of wildlife annually killed by cats, someone replies with "MY cat doesn't do that". The evidence is crystal clear: many cats are exterminators, and the ONLY way to be sure yours isn't is by keeping it indoors, or not at all.

I just saw a video calling @bradlander.bsky.social an antisemite for cross-endorsing Mamdani/not supporting Cuomo and if I don't say it enough: in addition to the Islamaphobia and the abuse-apoogy in that, calling a Reform Jewish man an antisemite is blatant bigotry about what makes a "real" Jew.

I haven't said anything about the truly Islamophobic campaign being waged in NYC during this primary but it's absolutely DISGUSTING and another example of how accepted Islamophobia is as routine bigotry. All of us have had enough of this. It's building up more bad blood and resentment.

It's pretty telling that the second part of the "Mamdani is a danger to Jewish new yorkers" pitch is always "so vote for sexual harasser shitbag Italian Catholic Andrew Cuomo" and not "so vote for Jewish Progressive Brad Lander"

The stupidest people are in charge because we couldn’t prosecute a political crime because it would look too political.

This is such a good point. Even if harassment isn't a dealbreaker for you for some reason, those impulses towards unaccountability and abuse don't stop there. The same thing that makes you think you can get away with that can also, say, lead to you allowing thousands of nursing home deaths.
