something something the more individualized model of trans healthcare also results in further breakdown of gender as a social class/hierarchy
One big missing piece of the picture of trans healthcare debate has been the shift from a one-size fits all program that emphasized a cis passing appearance as the only acceptable end to an individualized approach that offers only as much medical intervention as the patient wants and needs.

From Patagonia to the Arctic Circle, covering Central America and the Caribbean, and ending with, "and my own homeland, Puerto Rico: we're still here" (in Spanish: "y mi patria, Puerto Rico: seguimos aquí")
Benito said "God Bless America," and then proceeded to name every country in South and North America.

Bro literally came out and said “it’s our labor and culture that has always made the Americas great: y’all are just the beneficiaries of slave owners from sea to shining sea,” and I am here for it.
It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.
Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

My takeaways from Bad Bunny nobody asked for
1. the inclusion of afro-Latinidad
2. the use of kids AS kids. they weren't doing much but vibing (said positively).
3. I think there are a lot of easter eggs that require repeat viewing
4. everyone looked like they were having so much fun

And to think Minnesotans were asking Walz a month ago to use plows to block ICE from exiting Whipple to raid our communities, and finally he uses it FOR ICE. Outrageous.
