Maybe if we start calling our body parts gun-sounding names like “revulva” or “shooterus” the GOP will stop trying to regulate them.

After they came up with the collective noun “a murder of crows“ they should’ve just stopped coming up with collective nouns, because no collective noun will ever be cooler.

Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

I genuinely hate having to plug my work on here. I would rather post my cartoons and drawings without a link to my website, but unfortunately social media is an important element of our business, so I have to do it. I do appreciate the reposts and thank you for the support since I came to Bluesky.

PATTON OSWALT: These people are scared. They're being targeted. We're watching them be targeted right now. We're watching transgender people be targeted in a very aggressive way, so—

OSWALT: Oh my god.

We here at the Trump administration are laser focused on lowering grocery prices. But first, we're going to make sure the Nazis among us are more comfortable.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

The sign of a man who only understands this issue in relation to his own power, and not who has been hurt.

I mean, we know this about Donald Trump. But it’s worth saying over and over again that we have a president who gives not one single shit about who he harms.
HE KEEPS TALKING ABOUT BILL CLINTON AND THE DEMOCRATS AS IF WE GIVE A FUCK WHO’S IMPLICATED! WE WANT ALL PEDOPHILES TAKEN DOWN HOW IS THIS SO HARD TO GRASP?

Still wild to me that Trump pointed in a woman’s face and said “Quiet, Piggy!” and literally no one who witnessed it was like “Whoa, there bro” either because they didn’t care or they weren’t surprised, or both.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me
