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.

Several teachers fled with a student and hid in the back of a pick-up.

They were 'terrified of being found. They weren’t sure what was going on. ICE, an attack on the school, they didn’t know.'”

Raids inside day cares had been off limits until this year, when, on his first day in office, President Donald Trump removed that protection.

The arrest reportedly took place in front of children.

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

"They call us now, / before they drop the bombs."

We're beginning Week 2 of #PoemADayJuly with "Running Orders" by Lena Khalaf Tuffaha and, yes, this poem is so much and too much and, because of that so much and too much, very worthy of conversation.

hi, cis folks!

the GOP put the all-ages trans medicaid ban back in the budget, despite it being struck. they did it to force dems to challenge it on the floor.

if you've been paying attention, you know dems need to hear you want them to actually stand up to the GOP. contact info at reps.fyi 🧵

This confirms the Chicago style pope is superior to the Italian style pope. It's the thicker crust.

I actually unironically love the pope smoke thing. More stuff should be like that. I don't know what or how, I just know I want a lot of things to be announced via ancient symbolic acts

All disabled people are deserving of life, love & care.

The narrative that “low functioning” people who don’t pay taxes, won’t serve in the military & can’t live independently are somehow expendable is deeply rooted in eugenics.

A person’s worth isn’t tied to their health or economic contribution

THE INCANDESCENT. May 13.
Preorders should now be available nearly everywhere for THE INCANDESCENT, coming in Spring 2025!

This is a book about money and education and status symbols, about loving your career, about demons, about magic, about fantasy school - but most of all about how 'school' is always a kind of fantasy.
