The Trans Agenda is currently on a break and will be back in the new year, although I can't promise it will be filled with paper clips like it used to be, that stuff melts your brain.
Thanks to everyone who has remained subscribed as my brain solidifies.

STILL no trans people or drag queens implicated in the Epstein Files.
Plenty of TERFs though.
It’s almost as though every “gender-critical” transphobe is trying to protect cis men who abuse women and girls by helping them distract from the real threat.

Anti-trans demagogue and fifth place swimmer Riley Gaines earned $470,000+ last year from a conservative non-profit.
Notably, $420k was incentive-based.
A neat little window into the way the transphobic grift is being compensated.
I wonder what the per-post rate is?

Twice yearly PrEP injections (lencapavir) is fine for people on gender affirming hormone therapy.
Globally, trans women are among those at greatest risk of acquiring HIV so this is really good news.

In all sincerity I often sit here and wonder how better people could have given warnings about the rise of global fascism, and I struggle to think what else could have been tried. There were subtle warnings and loud warnings, obnoxious warnings and gentle warnings, the full range. I just don't know.
I keep thinking about this. I was talking to a journalist friend about Project 2025, and he was saying how so much of it is being executed with frightening efficiency. And it is all the more frustrating because everyone with the power to stop it was so thoroughly and repeatedly warned.
I mean I think the people who underestimated the fascists are the stupids in this equation. The fascists had a 60 year plan, they documented the last year of it very publicly, and they are successfully implementing all of it.

Found the actual men in women's bathrooms assaulting women.
ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.
