The bizarre recent tale in the @nytimes.com "She was ready to have her 15th child. Then came the felony charges" raised so many questions for me. @dorfmandoron.bsky.social 's prior article is a great follow-up read. What a case study!
This story about surrogacy without a genetic tie to the prospective parents is wild. In 2016, I wrote on such dilemmas in Surrogate Parenthood: Between Genetics and Intent. Stunning my analysis was adopted under extreme circumstances. academic.oup.com/jlb/article/...

This remains one of the most moving markers of a tragedy. I am grateful for the reminder.

This morning I rushed into the subway & saw this abomination. I wrote my city councilperson @ebottcher.bsky.social. Within 10 seconds, he said he'd handle it. I came home and every trace was gone. That’s leadership. Thank you Erik!

A horrible anti-science decision that will only complicate all our lives and torment those who need treatment.
Henceforth, it is up to the white Evangelicals to decide your gender and whether you can get a sex change, rules the Opus Dei court.
🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, concluding that it does NOT discriminate on the basis of sex, is not subject to heightened scrutiny, and survives rational basis review. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
