If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.
It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.
We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Learned today that a dose of Skyrizi without insurance is $20-22K. I assume the drug is effective, but guys, that commercial is on every five minutes. Maybe funnel some of that advertising budget into reducing the medicine's cost. People who need it it will find it without hearing the song.

I am nearly 40. Around 13, depression and self-hatred ruled my life. I never thought I'd live beyond 30; I barely squeaked by, having almost completely decimated my life at the time. At 30, a BPD diagnosis led me to Dialectical Behavior Therapy and practicing mindfulness. (1/5)

The thing about trans people that seems to trip some folks up is that they're just people. I get it, seeing people as people is hard when you don't really believe people are people.
But people IS people, it just be that way.

Today I learned a new word thanks to a book I'm reading. Potentate, which means a person so powerful that he or she doesn't have to follow the rules that govern everyone else.

My favorite mobile game of all time is easily Fable Coin Golf. It was fun enough on its own... as a companion app for Fable III it was great because I got incredibly rich. The companion apps for Assassin's Creed Black Flag and Watch Dogs were fine but not in the same ballpark.

The people who build your houses, grow your food, and care for your family aren’t the problem. The ones hoarding billions while doing nothing to give back are.
