I can only assume that the release of The Last Class and this new Game Changers episode on the same day was a deliberate effort to divide the Reich family. Currently @rbreich.bsky.social leads by 1 signed copy of his new book. This means the ball is in your court @samreich.bsky.social.

The men’s national team has lost 18 games in a row, the women’s side also has a double wooden spoon, and on top of it all, your club might be cut. No wonder apathy is taking over.

Republicans in Utah commissioned an investigation into gender-affirming care for trans youth after banning it in 2023.
They're now rejecting the findings of that investigation which showed access to care reduced suicides and improved "positive mental health and psychosocial functioning outcomes."
