You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

We need more public awareness of this. The change in how award grant money is given has reduced the number of projects funded. These include cancer, Alzheimer's & HIV.
This reduction includes a drop in high-risk/high reward grants to pursue more innovative ideas.

I had to take a humanities class, picked Roman history bc i took Latin in high school and it changed the trajectory of my life, shaped my scientific research interests indelibly, imbued me w/ a profound love of all humanity, taught me the eternal history of class struggle, and brought me to my wife
This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong.
I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

We actually should not have empathy for people who subjugate children to their own torturous personal beliefs. These children suffered just as much pain and permanent disability as if they had been severely physically abused. This is not an innocent mistake. A functioning society cannot allow this.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

I oppose law and immigration enforcement. I support mass migration and the complete abolition of borders. I think gender is a social construct, and I am opposed to capitalism and christianity. And if being “pro-America” means adhering to opposite of any of those views, I am anti-American too.
Stay safe, US friends. The FBI is compiling a list of domestic terrorists and I for one satisfy the criteria in all five possible ways.

And there have always been people who couldn’t breastfeed! And before formula, they either asked/begged/paid someone else to feed their baby, or the baby died
Let me just say: I have run more than a dozen marathons and an ultramarathon and I have worked 13-hour days in a cornfield in the scorching-ass sun, and none of those things broke me like breastfeeding.

"Biological people" was always where this eugenicist rhetoric was headed - ie "biological women", "biological pronouns" - because they genuinely don't believe trans people are even human. This dehumanizing language is essential for them to paint trans people as genetically incompatible with society.

dred scott, in their minds, established the united states as a place of tiered citizenship and permanent inequality among americans. it was a ruling that said, in effect, that all men *were not* created equal and would *never* be treated as such.

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.
