Transition is a matter of free will and freedom. Trans people are going to do it anyway and you cannot stop them.
We are full human beings with the right to decide our lives for ourselves and no one has a right to stand in the way of that.

one of the main reasons trans healthcare moved away from strict gatekeeping and toward informed consent & GAC is that trans ppl who were denied the means to transition would simply seek it out elsewhere
What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?

You can have things that are about trying to restructure the Court in the abstract, for the long term, and that's a fine conversation to have. But none solve the immediate problem which is that these people have to go. You can't do that by leaving them in place no matter what other reforms you make.

Like their intellectual predecessors in the Hitler Youth, the point of TPUSA is to intimidate the educators and students who don’t share ruling party ideology into silence. This is just basic fascism.
Happening now: Texas leaders announcing a rollout of a statewide program to put TPUSA chapters in high schools and colleges across the state. Gov. Abbott adds that schools that stand in the way should be reported to the Texas Education Agency.

The most American photo, ever.
A photograph of the Wanto Co. grocery store in Oakland, CA. The owner, Tatsuro Matsuda, placed a sign reading "I AM AN AMERICAN" on the front of the store on December 8, 1941, the day after the Pearl Harbor raid. The photograph was taken by Dorthea Lange sometime in March 1942.

A reminder: executive orders only apply to the executive. They’re directives to staff. They are not laws, just how the boss says the workers in the executive branch follow the law
Yeah yeah: Congressional abdication etc. Nope. They’re responsible for the laws, and they’re still responsible to us
