A part of this not mentioned is that Texas used to let kids transition. I volunteered at a camp for trans kids in Houston when I was in college (pre transition I know I know how did I not know I was trans). Guess where part of that camp was? Texas Children’s. That’s how much we lost
its insane how not many people are talking about how republicans with the help of several moderate democrats are building out the largest abusive medical conversion therapy operation in modern american history

The second the Democratic party starts accepting sports bans, I promise you, it will go on to do worse. And in fact we are already seeing it, some of the candidates also are opposing "trans surgery for youth." That easily becomes blockers and hormones, bathrooms and schools.

we should all be pissed off at this btw. if not because sex work is legitimate work and should be treated with respect, then because you should be concerned at attempts to gentrify online spaces as pretext to court investors and force out minorities so those spaces can become part of a portfolio.

We believe that the public has the right to know the consequences of this policy change. So if NHS England won’t publish the full assessment, we will. transactual.org.uk/blog/2026/10...

I wrote for @thenation.com about why people need to stop acting as though the dramatically escalating bigotry on display in US politics is just an unserious sideshow.

I dont want to hear shit about how trans people need to accept "reasonable compromises" puberty blockers instead of hrt for minors *was* the compromise 2 years hrt and hormone testing requirements for trans women athletes *was* the compromise taking more of our rights away is not "reasonable"

The Trump admin. has finally admitted to investigating all passport applicants for "evidence of a prior sex change." According to the declassified policy, signs you're trans apparently now include renewing your passport early for any reason—even marriage—and forgetting to fill out part of the form.

it is of course transphobic bigotry but it should be pointed out that the lie “people need the right healthcare for their biological sex” kills trans people. trans women get breast cancer at far higher rates than cis men. trans men get prostate cancer. hrt changes your sex.
It would IMO be better if MPs had not utterly deranged their own brains on Twitter dot com, wildly radicalising themselves and each other.

Ex-boss filed a $12 theft charge against an ex-employee because she got a restraining order in response to his creepy behavior. Charge was never prosecuted, but it gave ICE an excuse to arrest and detain her. Congratulations to the 58 Democrats who voted for the Laken Riley Act. You own this.

Democrats are getting the country closer to creating a filibuster proof majority to ban trans healthcare and sports for kids than the GOP ever could alone and they expect us to support them lol. reminder "surgeries" is a vague category that could easily include puberty blocker implants!
Add another Democratic candidate who has taken an anti-trans stance this campaign. Virtually everyone missed this one. Adam Hamilton's US senate campaign in Kansas called transgender girls "boys," opposed athletics, and was in favor of a surgery ban. Haven't seen this one reported anywhere yet.

Can't believe Jean Twenge, the woman who has dedicated her career to manipulating data about teen mental health, would manipulate data about teen sexuality.
I reanalyzed the CDC data behind the LGB “free fall” headline. It rests on a change in bisexual identification among one grade, in one wave, of one survey. Gay or lesbian identification did not change significantly. Calling it a "free fall" is sensational and just gives bad actors talking points.

Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.
Over the past year, Anthropic has repeatedly flirted with the idea that its AI models could be conscious in some way. In February, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said on a podcast, “We don’t know if the models are conscious.”

...not every "Dems cave on trans issues" case is the same, but this one is pretty simple. so for the record, I WILL *NEVER* VOTE for anyone who refers to me as a "biological man" because that's an non-scientific anti-trans term explicitly designed to take away trans rights! bsky.app/profile/erin...
SC Dem Senate nominee Annie Andrews released an ad calling trans women "biological men." She embraces sports and surgery bans for youth. Her campaign even says she won't work to overturn the HRT/blocker trans youth ban. She once argued against capitulation. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Donald Trump posted on Truth Social calling Dr Annie Andrews a transphobic slur this week, and her response is to ensure everyone knows she hates trans people too. Christ, the Democrats are fucking pathetic.
