It’s been an evolving part of employment discrimination law since the 1990s that transgender-based discrimination is unlawful. While the rationale shifted from an anti-stereotyping principle toward textualism, this is settled law. This Administration is a menace to civil rights and the rule of law.

This administration loves to talk about saving “Western Civilization.” Besides being an obvious fascist rhetorical framework, I ask how does it advance “Western Civilization” when you abandon your western partners on the world stage over issues like stopping catastrophic climate change?

Reminder:
Green energy doesn't require war with oil-rich countries.
It's also sustainable and doesn't pollute our air.
It is also the future of the planet at large.
If we choose oil, we choose our own extinction.
So war for oil/oil = bad
Green energy = good
Thank you for attending my ted talk.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

The irony about notorious transphobe Marjorie Taylor Green is that for the first time in her life she’s likely felt, with all the attacks from Trump and his MAGA misogynists, something similar to how trans women are feeling under his despotism.

Really, we're due to 3-4ºC warming, and this is the priority of the Church. (though who's surprised?)

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.
