Existentially disappointed. Hoped we'd have done better by now. Making art and craft to compensate.

It would also be nice if cis people with platforms actually spoke out publicly for a change and didn’t just message their trans friends privately to say that it sucks but keep quiet otherwise to avoid losing their newspaper columns

You cannot legislate away a person, who they are, how they feel, how their friends and loved ones see them.

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

Could it be that the correct number of people are receiving MH diagnoses but the service provision has never kept up?
Might I not so politely suggest that Streeting yeets himself into the sun. Yes, diagnosis has improved, and people are becoming more aware of mental health issues. That doesn't mean they are being "overdiagnosed". It is more likely they were previously under-diagnosed.

Sounds like a concentration camp to me
Two days ago he said he wanted Americans he’d put in prison to be exiled to a foreign place for incarceration far from prying eyes.

Today he’s ordered a new detention center in Guantanamo Bay—justifying it by saying it’s only for foreigners.

But for how long?

Wake up, America. It’s all happening.
BREAKING: Donald Trump says he's directing the opening of a detention center at Guantanamo Bay to hold up to 30,000 migrants in the U.S. illegally.
