Incredibly great news:
BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.
🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.
This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

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.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the C.D.C. to abandon its longstanding position that vaccines do not cause autism.
This crackpot is a danger to public health. As a father of an autistic son, I find RFK, Jr.'s actions to be sickening and deranged.

Extensive studies with millions of kids showed no connection between vaccines and autism.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance as on many past ones, I remember the other trans girl who came back for me when someone was trying to kill my 11 year old trans behind. I never learned her name, she died before she could tell me. She was only slightly older than me, maybe 13? I owe her my life.

Just to review, in the last week the President of the United States:

- Tried to block the release of further evidence he sexually abused children
- Encouraged the execution of Congressional Democrats

It's being reported that New Zealand has banned puberty blockers for transgender youth. I removed New Zealand from my recommendations to families fleeing a while back after the far right saw a surge in power in the country.
Sad day for NZ trans youth.

The UK is considering a policy that would effectively segregate trans people from society. It would bar trans people from "single sex spaces" even when they use the facility of their sex assigned at birth.
This is a full on policy of segregation without even the benefit of separate facilities.

The HHS report on gender affirming care released it's updated report showing they stacked its authors with anti-trans hate-group affiliated members, several of whom aren't even doctors with any sort of clinical experience. They selected their own ideologically friendly peer reviewers.

I keep thinking about the Raymond Williams line: "To be truly radical is to make hope possible rather than despair convincing".
Hope is not easy. Despair seems obvious. But every howl of despair manifests as further malignance. Compliance with fascism is despair metastasising.
