It's really frustrating that a lot of the media just sort of frames the Trump admin as "wading into a hot debate over trans issues that have roiled american politics" when it's like, clear that they are motivated by a desire to demean trans people
Admiral Rachel Levine was the first transgender person to be confirmed by the Senate to serve in the federal government. Her official portrait at HHS headquarters has been altered. n.pr/48HypvT
HHS changed the name of transgender health leader on her official portrait

cool that the official position of the administration appears to be that black people don’t really count as americans
"The Donald Trump administration has changed which holidays qualify for free entrance to national parks, removing two holidays celebrating Black people and adding the president’s birthday."
National parks change prioritizes Trump birthday over days honoring Black people
Free entrance days at national parks no longer include MLK Day and Juneteenth.

Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.

Being on the autism spectrum does not by any means make using the R slur any less gross, nor does it give you permission to "reclaim" it. There are people with other mental or physical disabilities that the term is still very much harmful towards.

Some key takeaways from today’s hearing:
-Many acknowledged that Senate KOSA is a threat to free expression.
-Bills discussed have similar issues to KOSA, esp online ID checks.
-The bad idea that surveillance + censorship will keep kids safe online drove the discussion.

I personally feel that Visa and Mastercard should get out of the censorship game altogether.
But while there are in it, they should be censoring bullies (who cause active harm) at least as vehemently as they are censoring spicy artists (who harm no one).
