I have never had a pet for as long as we had our sweet kitty, nor have I loved a pet as much as I love him.

It's pretty obvious this is an attempt to appear neutral between the two sides but such fake neutrality only aids the oppressor here. The overwhelming force of the federal government being brought to bear on less than 1% of the population. It's a campaign of eradication and the NYT has chosen a side

The latest story uses it multiple times, including in the headline. This is not a change by medical orgs or advocates in the description of this care. This is seemingly being driven by an internal change at the Times within its style guide to both sides this issue.

I noticed a change in the last few weeks in how the NYT describes gender affirming care. They now use the term "gender related care" in their coverage. This term had only been used sparingly (4 times) prior to this year. Now it's becoming ubiquitous in standard coverage.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation
![. . . very cooperative, but the police at that point had to let [redacted] know that what she had done that she could be facing charges.
Q And that was after they had told her earlier that she didn't need an attorney present, correct?
A Exactly.
Q Okay. So this happens to her with the Palm Beach Police Department and did the Palm Beach Police actually present or propose charging [redacted]?
A They did get a probable cause affidavit against [redacted].
Q And is that why Ms. [redacted] and her attorney were concerned about her testimony here?
A Yes.
Q Now was a subpoena issued for Ms. [redacted] on behalf of this grand jury?
A Yes, it was.
Q And before Ms. [redacted] would comply with that, did she -- did her attorney request some sort of order?
A Yes.
Q And what did he ask for?
A He asked for immunity for [redacted].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:eoss3vmzem55cm5kuddhdmwn/bafkreiariijffjjrgfh26o22jjr76pwprinvnbpkcho5lyi2sucfbqlooy@jpeg)

look at how little effort it takes for someone on the conservative grievance circuit to destroy a life
millions of college kids have half assed an assignment at the last minute, you eat the F and move on
but the effort to push trans people out of public life will use whatever it can get

Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

This declaration was blatantly violative of the administrative procedures act on multiple counts as the lawsuit lay out. The secretary cannot simply declare their own standards of care that overrides professional medical orgs as well as state regulation of Healthcare.

This action by HHS and RFK Jr is unprecedented in scope. Never before has the fed. gov. usurped the authority of medical professionals to set a separate standard of care in an attempt to ban evidence based lifesaving care. The man who thinks getting measles is good wants trans kids to suffer.

7. And even if the rule comes to pass, there will still be wholly private providers—although this will further segregate access to care, allowing it only for those who can afford it out-of-pocket. These rules could also be overturned by a subsequent president.

6. There are still hurdles that the Trump regime would have to clear in order to make this destruction of care a reality. Lawsuits can and likely will be filed across the country. Hospitals can choose to keep their doors open and fight the HHS in court.
