Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

The EO attempting to restrict gender-affirming care also directed states and the DOJ to prioritize enforcing bans on female genital mutilation and cutting.
Since then, anti-FGM/C advocates have found their urgent work to protect kids derailed by anti-trans policies.

Anti-trans policies aren't preventing genital mutilation — they're disrupting efforts to stop it
The bipartisan movement against female genital mutilation and cutting is being co-opted by anti-trans activists, hindering urgent laws from being passed.

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people.
Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

Just more reasons that I am never voting for Newsom. Pay attention Libs, Newsom is unelectable, and you need to come to terms with it NOW.
Newsom vetoes both the PreP access and the HRT stockpile bill because he is worried it would increase healthcare costs...
He claims to support the aims of these bills. But the vetoes deny access to medical care for queer people.
(Context: He vetoed these 2 while signing 8 other queer rights bills)

Saying "conversion therapy" is like saying "pro-life". There's nothing therapeutic about abusing emotional vulnerability to encourage self-harm.
Choose words carefully, otherwise we'll be stuck in an endless debate filled with inherently invalid arguments and bad faith.

If you're a cis person who wants to be kind to your trans and nonbinary friends right now, please do not forward us links to stories about trans people being abused, having their rights taken away, or living in fear. We already know. A friendly "hey I hope you're OK" is much more helpful. 💖
