Incredibly important new study from Cal Horton @fiercemum.bsky.social - the first to look at England's post-Cass child/adolescent gender clinics. Dr Horton found patients and families are being actively harmed, with one young person describing appointments as "the worst thing I’ve ever experienced”.
“The worst thing I’ve ever experienced” – comparing experiences of affirmative and non-affirmative healthcare provision for trans adolescents in the UK
Within trans youth healthcare two fundamentally different models of care persist, with a significant difference between affirmative and non-affirmative healthcare services. To date there has been l...

Regurgitative AI is now implicated in multiple deaths but still there is no sign of regulation.

Meanwhile, governments are working to ban trans people from public life based on imaginary scenarios that haven’t happened.

Not even AI could write a situation as stupid as this shit.

of course bari weiss can be both stupid and evil! that is the point of transphobia, it is evil that you can do even if you are too stupid for other forms of evil, because you can just say the same 2-5 transphobic things over and over again and you get an automatic audience of rich credulous freaks

I try to be open minded about "the youths", but something about this whole 6-7 thing really buzzed my bonnet. Not because of the meme itself, but because it reminded me of something and I couldn't think what.

It just hit me like a tonne of bricks. It was this "dance" from EIGHT YEARS AGO!

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

My personal opinion: use whatever toilet you are most comfortable with.

It doesn’t bother me.
Because I’m a grownup who doesn’t invent things to be afraid of.

Since apparently there is James Bond discourse, here’s the simplest way to get out this self-imposed “how do we unkill Bond” mess.

YOU DON’T *NEED* CONTINUITY, FFS

Keep the same actors for M, Moneypenny, Q, Leiter, and Lashana Lynch as 008 or whatever number.
New Bond.
Set it in the 60s.

EASY.
