Please don't add me to any starter packs without asking first

My goal is to be as kind as I can, but still curb-stomp racists, bigots, sexist, & anti-LGBTQIA+ jerks, & fight for abortion rights

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.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

Mary Ziegler points out that no Republicans voted against the failed South Carolina bill that would have jailed women for up to 30 years for abortion. But the point of such bills is that they incrementally mainstream the most extreme anti-abortion positions.

I don't know, but after reading it, the kind of trepanning people did in ancient times to release evil humors and demons is sounding pretty good.
Does anyone know of a magician, warlock, surgeon, hypnotist, particularly sharp blade I can use to remove this from my brain?

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.
