Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Transgender people are owed a retraction and apology from @wsj.com. The lie has already become canon to millions and it seems the least they could do.

Before transitioning I was a respectability-politics lesbian. Even post-transition my career, my manner of dress, and my work is very palatable to the mainstream.
Because of that I think it's particularly important to talk about why I reject respectability politics and you should too. Short 🧵

Gavin Newsom suggesting that 25 years of age is too young to transition and agreeing to right-wing entryism of concern trolling about trans people in sports. This is your opposition leader?
I will never vote for Gavin Newsom anyone who thinks trans people are actual humans will follow suit.

For the love of god can we stop airing articles about "X tech bro says this is gonna happen in X years clearly just in service of a publicity stunt". No. It's not going to happen. Obviously. Why are we indulging this?

Colloquially, gender dysphoria is something many trans people experience. But diagnostically it's not really... er... real. What's lost when trans people invest in categories imposed by psychiatry?

Diagnoses like “Gender Dysphoria” May Not Be Medically Real — But They Sure Are Politically So — Assigned
In Skrmetti, the court’s legal logic hinges upon a medical disorder, which has never been proven to exist— an “open secret” that applies to all psychiatric diagnoses.

The most frustrating part of trans rights activism is the knowledge that "raising awareness" of a threat you face often makes that threat more likely and more dangerous, so we often have to choose between silence or suffering with the knowledge that, if we choose silence, we may still get suffering

🚨 In addition to banning gender affirming medical treatment through Medicaid, Trump's reconciliation bill PROHIBITS health insurance purchased through Obamacare exchanges from offering transition care.
Detransition care, though, is specifically protected. CALL YOUR HOUSE REPS!
