There have been I think three instances of trans women succeeding at top level of a sport, none of them spectacularly to do with overwhelming strength or physique.
Darts, chess and pool.
Trans women are not physically dominating anything.

Lots of stories about how mass deportations will spike food prices and cause inflation. But as Tom Bonier noted, only one published before Election Day...

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Monday unanimously directed county election officials to stop defying the court’s guidance not to count mail ballots that were missing dates or had errors in the date field on the outer return envelope.
Pennsylvania’s Top Court Tells Counties to Stop Defying Its Ballot Order
The unanimous decision came after officials in at least four counties had ignored the court’s pre-election guidance not to count mail ballots that were undated or misdated.

The people who are saying “to win again we need to abandon trans people” not even two weeks out from the election, before we have voter file data or much other tangible information, just want to abandon trans people.

The reason MAGA and conservatives (in the closet MAGA) are upset we're leaving X is that we spend endless amounts of time spinning our wheels explaining why Trump is bad.
On @bsky.app, we begin with an understanding of Trump's danger, and hopefully we can use our time planning a Dem comeback.

Stop with the "echo chamber" junk.
I don't need to be called a Jewish or gay slur for the 50th time to understand there are lots of MAGA out there and they vote.
I want a place where I can exchange empathy and ideas of how to drag us out of this mess. X ain't it.

With Bluesky, the social media echo chamber is back in vogue
The great migration from Elon Musk’s X has seen users, especially progressives, retreat into one particular silo

Oddly, you never hear Fox News viewers criticized or even questioned for inhabiting a hermetically sealed bubble. It’s almost as if this entire canard is about the right’s ability to infect, infest, and dominate us.

He isn’t walking it back. Note what he says: “start with,” “begin there.” They’re going to start by rounding up cases who it will be hard for liberals, the media, etc, to defend. Then they’ll start testing to see how far they can go.
Notable - Mike Johnson on CNN walks back Trump's promise to deport as many as 20m people, saying "I'm not sure that's what's gonna happen. I think what the president is talking about is beginning w/the dangerous persons that we know are here. There are criminals, known criminals"

This has been one of my axes to grind since I ran a youth news org 15+ years ago. News orgs would tell us that the counter narratives that painted a more nuanced portrait of our communities weren't "news." But narrowing our communities to violence and tragedy distorts perception and possibility.
