I bet I see more content and advertising for trans voice coaching than anyone else because I'm trans and a published scientist on voice. If someone makes a post about it, every algorithm on the internet is going to make sure I see it. It's truly something else.

🇦🇺 research tells a clear story. The 🌎’s most extensive longitudinal study of trans youth (630 participants followed over 20 years) demonstrates significant mental health benefits and safety.

I join @ChardonnayM & we dig very deep into the IOC Gender Framework.
-How sports can implement the Framework.
-Why the T rules were removed.
-This is a great discussion we talk about why blanket bans should be a thing of the past.

The most important thing we need to build right now is a liberalism with teeth. We value an open, democratic society, but movements whose express aim is to undermine that society should feel the full violence of the state. Fascists should spend their lives trembling in obscurity.

Disability scholar here once again to boost an excellent thread.
By forcing ppl to prove a need for accommodations, to “prove” a disability, we’re implying that disability is a flaw rather than evidence of biodiversity/diversity. The premise is built on ableism. Universal design is the antidote.

Having to identify oneself as disabled to access accommodations is, on its own, a huge barrier to getting many disabled people the accommodations they need.

Same thing about doctors and their professional trade associations.
See also the upper rungs of the legal profession and the tech world. People literally get offended if you suggest that there's a difference between what's good for their career and what's morally permissible, and that sometimes the two are mutually exclusive.

A corrupt president pardons a corrupt member of Congress for corrupt reasons. With multiple guilty pleas establishing a bribery-laundering scheme, Hakeem Jeffries still called the case “thin” and sought cover in a bribery-plagued Supreme Court.
A lesson in squandering potential inroads with voters.

Historian of eugenics here. I don't normally like to retweet bad arguments, but this is such a fundamental misunderstanding of eugenics, I think it's important to point out. I don't have time to debunk all of the ways this is inaccurate, but I'll highlight a few things and then recommend some books🧵

My opinion about the accommodations discourse today is:
1) Universal design. Universal design is the answer. Accommodations for everybody.
2) It's the carceral bullshit around grades and testing that makes accommodations seem like a problem. Stop doing it! Just let the carceral bullshit go!
