The anti-trans side constantly used this exact and talking point about a 4000% increase in trans youth. Similarly, there was a change in diagnostic criteria along with increased access to care.
It's the same exact playbook.

This open letter to a plagiarist by @rustandmoth.bsky.social is an outstanding example of not only how to lay axe to the root of this pernicious literary theft but also how to appeal to the guilty party's better nature without dragging them, triggering a pile-on or destroying a chance at redemption.

man they really didn't give a shit about that guy. as soon as it was clear they couldn't use his death to launch a purge they started to treat it like a nothingburger
Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

When people say "We used to drink raw milk from our own cow and it was fine,"
That's... usually not the case!
In families w their own cow, the mom usually boiled it before using.
We just forgot bc that's a boring chore that mom did. And who pays attention to that?

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

The exhale of relief I just had to see that this man is alive… now they just send him home.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

My favorite poetry journal, Rust & Moth, put out a beautiful statement today that strikes exactly the right tone, imo. Worth reading.

“The stakes are too high for isolated action; mere tributaries aren’t strong enough on their own. Now is the time for rivers — for mutual aid, coordinated pressure…”
“Look for the helpers,” his mother would say to him whenever there were scary things in the news. “You will always find people who are helping.”
