I hope University Presidents who like to cozy up to their state’s GOP electeds are on the phone this morning fighting for science.

And I hope they learn a lesson or two about using their power for good in the future.

Trans kids in sports should be a nonissue.

Total trans athletes per state are in the single digits in 2/3 of states, and the majority of these kids aren’t in contact sports.

Meanwhile, an average of 12 kids die from a firearm injury and 32 more survive a gunshot wound DAILY.
