I went to my Congressman's local office today. First off, they were surprised that I was there. They said they had been getting phone calls, but I was the first walk-in. That said, the phones were not ringing off the hook. If the DC phone lines are busy, try calling the local office.

1. Multiple hospital systems are complying with an unlawful executive order with dubious enforcement mechanisms and pulling their trans kids off care.

While most have not, those that have are harming their trans patients.

Waymo is peak American innovation. With way less money they could have built a reliable public transport network, but instead someone was like "what if we could find a way for empty vehicles to contribute to traffic too? There's no reason we can't have more cars on the road than there are drivers"

Update: we just shut down the American Gas Association's Christmas gathering!

The gas industry is decimating our reindeer populations. Temperatures in the Arctic have risen four times faster than the global average. This cannot stand!

If they won't let us live, we won't let them party.

When you call 911, they ask “police, fire, or EMS?”

Only one of those costs money: the ambulance. That’s unacceptable.

Imagine if your house was on fire and you were presented with a bill after it was put out. That would be outrageous.

So why do we tolerate it with healthcare?
