SCOOP: The Department of Health and Human Services has been using the term “sex-rejecting procedures” to describe gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary individuals.
The term is not clinical or medical. It comes from a Christian Right group.

We won't let this go. The UK cracked down on access to gender affirming care and trans youth suicides then the government covered it up. This also came amidst a massive push for anti trans policies more broadly among British political parties.

when I was a kid, part of the “teen-appropriate experience” on the internet was the guidance that anyone who wants pictures of you or a certain level of personal information is trying to exploit you. probably should have stuck with that.

On the one hand, it seems like they fired almost everyone who can think critically, but on the other, that The Post would publish an “analysis” of an overtly political halftime show claiming it was apolitical demonstrates just how much things have changed. These people are rightfully afraid.
Analysis: Weeks before he set foot on the stage, Bad Bunny’s halftime performance had already become a media event.
But if you were looking for political commentary, the closest that you got was when he said “God bless America” in English.

Analysis | Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show was expected to provoke. Did it?
The Bad Bunny Super Bowl show nodded to injustices in Puerto Rico but mostly evoked wholesome family values that meshed with the more sentimental commercials.

The fact that Bad Bunny's halftime show made white bigots angry and feel excluded is A GOOD THING. It's one of the best things about it. It's not a problem to solve. It's a solution to pursue. Bigots *should* feel excluded. We should find *more* ways to celebrate the reality of USian diversity.
