Iโve spent years of my life trying to explain to people that anti-trans conservatism naturally flows from their belief that children in the American nuclear family are not individuals with autonomy, but instead property of the parents and state, and this guy justโฆ tweeted it out

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings.

I see no reason not to look at the online gambling and prediction market craze as a new opioids crisis.

There will always be wheelchair users. Disability will always be a part of humanity.
Disability is a natural part of aging. It's a natural part of human existence. Nearly all of us become disabled at some point.
Disability is a natural part of aging. It's a natural part of human existence. Nearly all of us become disabled at some point.
Including disabled people in our utopian futures pushes back against a eugenicist ideal.
I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."
That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.
