the only mention in this piece is about how she’s upset trump hasn’t done *enough* to harm trans kids. oh and a quote from her saying trans people are all “perverted”.

Rick Steves, man. What a thing to do.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I cannot state any more baldly or clearly than I already have about what an immense menace RFK Jr. is. The number of preventable illnesses and deaths - of *babies* - will be horrific. This anti-vax crap is grotesque anti-science, and always has been.

BREAKING: RFKJr directs that the US instantly stop recommending all vaccinations for children. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...
Under RFK Jr., U.S. plans to stop recommending most vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

“it’s reasonable to ask questions about trans girls in sports” was always intended to mainstream transphobia.
It’s absurd that people fell for it. Democrats are constantly letting oppressors set the terms of debate instead of just saying “no, fuck you.”

This administration’s primary goal and guiding light, from trans care to vaccines to genocide to food stamps to the environment to to to to, is killing children.
Makary: "It's medical dogma, sadly, that the normal sometimes stressful experience of boys & girls growing up is a pathology requiring medical intervention. Parents are told if they don't agree to these disfiguring procedures, they put their child at increased risk of suicide -- a baseless claim"

In general I’m in the “don’t make fun of appearances” camp but fascists are clowns and they deserve to be—MUST BE—laughed at. They want to present an impenetrable, inevitable front; I think it’s fine to be like “yeah you are human and also evil and that’s not good for the soul or the skin.”
I know some of you think it's the righteous thing to do to not to make fun of these pictures in vanity Fair, but the cruelty that this administration puts out deserves to get it back.

The House passed legislation today that would charge doctors with a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison for providing transition-related care to minors.

When my daughter was 3, she asked my mom to watch a video of Pinkie Pie from My Little Pony. My sweet mom, not knowing better, looked up "Pinkie Pie" on YouTube and ended up showing her a video someone made of Pinky Pie brutally and graphically murdering Applejack.
Anyway. This is probably fine.

But tonight, Dems in Athens were out in FULL FORCE to swamp that gerrymander.

I am once again reminding everyone that Clive Owen’s character in CHILDREN OF MEN is in his mid-forties in the late 2020s, which means it’s canonically a movie about a Millennial
