Good Morning from New York. It is COLD! 🥶
Picture of the back yard, fur tree with dusting of snow, first light of dawn in the background. Outdoor thermometer reading about 24 to 26 degrees, 68 percent humidity.

"The people claiming they were there to “save” women’s sports seemed to know almost nothing about them. And that contradiction reveals something deeper about this debate. This fight was never really about fairness in athletics. It was about who gets to belong." - @jcubedhax.bsky.social
What the Anti-Trans Movement Doesn’t Understand About Women's Sports
Outside the Supreme Court, a movement claiming to protect women’s sports exposed its own ignorance of them.

re: SDCC allowing GenAI into their art show. SDCC costs creators *thousands* of dollars to attend and they think this is ok?

Readers, attendees, and creators alike need to let them know there’s no place for GenAI in the arts, period.

Throughout Civilizations, some humans have tried to evolve humanity through Science, Philosophy, Social Change only to be trounced or delayed by Religious Groups' archaic "traditions" and flat-out primitive fear of life-changing/evolving knowledge. Humanity could be so much more by now!#TransRights

As the Supreme Court weighs whether states can ban trans students from girls’ & women’s sports, this investigation from @kathrynajoyce.bsky.social shows how those fights are seeded locally—through school boards and a Christian Right legal group, the Independence Law Center.

In Pennsylvania, parents are challenging Independence Law Center policies while trying to avoid a legal case that could go to the conservative Supreme Court.

On my way to the Supreme Court where I'll be proud to support 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson, West Virginia's only transgender athlete, as she opposes the state's effort to ban her from playing as herself.

Win or lose, Becky and her family are heroes for standing up for what's right

since it's behind a paywall now, I wanted to share this graph from "How Trump 2.0 is slashing NIH-backed research — in charts" (Nature, April 2025). Say it with me: the anti-trans/LGBTQ+ movement is an anti-science movement:
[article sans figs can be read here: web.archive.org/web/20250501... ]
chart header reads: Fields Under Fire. Some research fields have been heavily affected by grant terminations implemented by the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) under President Donald Trump. More than half of the active, NIH-funded projects about gender and sexual minorities (LGBT+) have been cancelled. chart #1 shows that 50.6% of grants containing the terms "LGBT/LGBTQ/LGBTQ+" in the title or abstract were terminated. chart #2 shows that 45.8% of grants containing the term "transgender" in the title or abstract were terminated. chart #3 shows that 45.5% of grants containing the term "vaccine hesitancy" in the title or abstract were terminated. chart #4 shows that 3.4% of grants containing the terms "HIV" or "AIDS" in the title or abstract were terminated.

This week, two young trans athletes will see their rights debated at the Supreme Court. As last year's Skrmetti decision showed, scientific truth will have no place in the decision by the extremely conservative court.

That's our top story leading off the week.

Incredible how many decades of #trans-healthcare (since 1930's; see "The Danish Girl" movie) gets wiped away by unqualified quacks and anti-Trans-agenda activists! We're under relentless Federal assault, and what does The Mainstream Media say about it? *cricket sounds*

Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a bill that bans gender-affirming medical care for any transgender person under 18, and threatens any medical professional providing this care to youth with 10 years in prison.

Tell Congress to protect trans youth and vote NO.
