Trump has done awful things to trans people over the last decade, but trans representation in media is crucial to our inclusion in society and the damage Trump has done to it will take a long time to heal.

Vance is joining the attack on gender-affirming care with a new HHS “report” that claims it’s all some ploy by hospitals to make more money. They want the DOJ to start a whole new round of harassment of healthcare providers masked as an investigation.

A lawyer is currently standing in a Montana courtroom defending their anti-trans bathroom bill (HB 121) and a major part of his argument is built around quoting Sophie Cunningham and Stephen A. Smith. Truly wild choice.

Earlier this year, @transparentaction.bsky.social surveyed families of trans kids, created a full report, and sent it to the government to encourage new guidance to protect trans students. The government never responded, and are about to enact policies that will hurt trans and non-binary children.

After London Trans Pride the UK government issued a statement saying “Our top priority is the safety and wellbeing of *all* children and young people in education. This is why we have issued updated keeping children safe in education guidance”. This is a lie and they know it. Not trans children.

The science is out there. But people like Sophie Cunningham are just parroting right-wing talking points and have clearly never actually read up on what it means to be trans.

I've been reading @faefyx.bsky.social for a long time, so it was a true delight to be in conversation with them about their excellent reporting for @lgbtqnation.com. Also, Faefyx broke a story in MN that I had NO idea about. That's how good they are.

Scott Yenor with the Heritage Foundation argued that women don't want to play competitive sports and Title IX needs gutting to allow discrimination against women's sports. Megan Burke provides a great takedown of that here, getting into the philosophy and Beauvoir-application that Yenor misuses.

The amount of hate this piece is getting is wild. You don’t know the sexuality of someone if they’re not out and jokes about suggesting you do are based on homophobia not “calling out hypocrisy.”

I receive a lot of pretty egregious hate mail because of who I am, the work I do, and having a small social media presence (I recently got told I should be lobotomized). But there’s been a shift to suggest that I hurt kids, and it’s blatantly obvious where that idea has come from.
