Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

The trans partner of Tyler Robinson had no knowledge about it and was told to delete messages but didn't and instead turned them immediately over to the police and cooperated.
Yet, the right is demonizing her and blame everything on trans people despite the trans person here doing the right thing.

This is interesting, but like, these two realities of kirk are not nearly on even footing.
Goebbels had 6 kids and apparently, I've learned on Bluesky this week, "made a great strudel."
Its much more important to know their horrors than the times they did something nice.

I don’t think people truly understand the ascendency of fascism in this country right now. This is an abhorrent, but not surprising, proposal given the rhetoric and actions of the Trump regime and its far right supporters.

Promoting false information that ties our LGBTQ+ community to the Utah shooting is reckless, irresponsible, and puts trans people especially in danger.

The Alabama Public Library Service has a new proposal that would ban—get this—only "positive depictions" of trans people.

A few people had questions of some of the states on my map such as NY/CA/IL moving up in risk for trans youth.
If a state has moved up in risk, it's because of clinic closures at major clinics.
I cannot in good faith keep a state low risk if state laws are not being enforced to keep clinics open.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.
Risk has increased sharply for youth in many states as clinics shutter under Trump and state AGs refuse to enforce civil rights laws.
For adults, some increases in risk.
Nationwide risk remains extreme.

this is asking for a hell of a lot of trust that Dems will give up this power later. I give that about a zero percent chance. but maybe this is a necessary deal with a devil? could it force SCOTUS to finally start dismantling gerrymandering?

They could do this exact same thing for anyone prescribed abortion pills or birth control. This is a playbook that spells the end of medical privacy in the United States.
The DOJ subpoenas to providers of gender affirming care wanted the therapy notes, social security numbers, and addresses of patients. This is an unprecedented and disgusting violation of medical privacy.
