Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.
3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.
4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.
It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.
Story to come.

I keep seeing people say, oh, trans people must take a hit for the greater good and, first of all, no, you don't get to discard someone else's rights and second, we know from past experience that marginalized communities like theirs are merely the first to be targeted. They'll come for you next.
The White House plans to bar hospitals that treat transgender children and youth from getting any Medicare and Medicaid payments. The move would affect trans youth who have private insurance, too. n.pr/4qFa1mY

New Orleans has had the fewest murders this year since 1970. Carjackings are down 80% relative to 2022, vehicle burglaries are down 70%, shootings are down 63%. This is a wholly unnecessary stunt that will hurt local businesses.

Catch me tonight in Mosaïque walking with Krewe of Nyades. Trade us your bra for handmade pasties! We work with nonprofits that recycle the garments at all stages of their use.
I like that there are so many of these early season walking parades these days. One of the few positive developments in a Carnival season that seems like it is always under attack

Honestly, Entergy saying they don’t expect outages makes me trust them even less to have the resources on hand to restore power if/when it does go out.
Entergy says they've been trimming trees. "We do not expect widespread outages at this time"

“You’re not supposed to dance before the body is cut loose. And definitely not before next of kin have been notified.”
“An attitude that ‘the show must go on’ isn’t surprising. Still, it left some New Orleanians expressing a long-standing sorrow that what’s good for the people who visit this city is always prioritized over what’s good for the people who call it home.”

After New Year's Day terrorist attack, New Orleans tries to balance tourism and grief
Less than 36 hours after Wednesday’s attack and before we knew the names of all of the victims, New Orleans reopened Bourbon Street to pedestrians.

Is there anything more comforting than your own mother's gumbo?
Two things I learned/realized this time around:
1) She's been sneaking rotel into it this whole time (my entire life) so I guess I'm a tomatoes in gumbo person.
2) She puts okra in every gumbo, so this is clearly where I get that from.
