Treatment for trans kids cannot wait for adulthood. Adolescent changes in the body are permanent and irreversible. The pain of dysmorphia kills. No medical professional treats kids casually, no family seeks treatment casually. Treatment is safe, effective and is a conservative course of action.

I remember Paulina’s predictions 25 years ago about where our thinskinned, antisocial tech elite were headed. She was right.
She’s now living in precarity in Oakland while Ezra Klein, Bari Weiss, & Steven Levy cash their oligarch flattery shares.
Read her work. Support her living expenses.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).
But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

I know this has come up before, but it still boggles my mind that there's an account out here that labels itself as the "official" resistance account for the National Park Service and there are a ton of people who buy that and get mad if you question it.
Like what the hell makes you "official"??

Today, we got the subpoena.
The DOJ has 2 weeks to release the Epstein files to the Oversight Committee. Justice must apply to everyone, no matter how rich, powerful, or well-connected they are.

Democratic voters don’t want passive or “reach across the aisle” politics while we are fighting literal fascism.
Look at Texas Democrats. Fight like that. We’ll reward you at the polls.
Stand up. Link arms. Draw a line in the sand. Tell the Republicans we won’t put up with this shit. Fight back.
