today’s information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts.
Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.

Reading this news while en route to the PornHub awards tonight in LA. Will be interesting to chat with people there about this development
By the way, this is *not* just about porn. While they certainly want to get rid of all porn, this is also a loaded gun aimed at the expression of the LGBT and other marginalized communities.
So, uh. first of all...Mike Lee can't just wave a magic wand and change the definition of obscenity. That's not how the First Amendment works.
Second, this is a naked attempt to subject the Internet to the censorious whims of the most puritanical community.

"No person shall be... deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." 5th amendment to the constitution.
Indiana congresswoman says, “You violated the law, you don’t get due process.” These are the same lawmakers who oppose Red Flag Laws because they don’t provide armed domestic abusers with … due process.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Texas is using “harmful materials” panic as a justification to allow conservative parents to seize libraries from librarians — and effectively banning books they don’t like.
SB13 was voted out of committee this week, and will likely be heard and voted on by the full Texas Senate very soon.
Keep calling your Texas senator and ask them to vote no on SB13.
