One of the best things you can do with a contract, if you do not understand what a clause means, is not to ask a lawyer. It is to ask the party who drafted the contract, and (ideally) get their response in writing.

Trans kids deserve access to life-saving health care and doctors deserve to provide care without being policed by the Trump Administration.

This cruel weaponization of the federal government will have devastating effects.

I didn't write a lot this year (three other jobs will do that) but here's some of the stuff I did write, which I am immensely proud of.

Here's a piece in @sfchronicle.com about whether or not its safe for trans Americans to hold a US passport:
Is it still safe for transgender Americans to use their U.S. passports?
Many trans Americans are avoiding leaving the country thanks to new rules by the Trump administration regarding federal documents.

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.

Tonight in The December Comfort Watches: Starship Troopers. Did you know that, in a wild coincidence, there is also a novel of the same name? I talk about both in the piece! Would you like to know more?

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

@theradr.bsky.social explains the sin of Sodom, which sounds a lot like what is happening right now: refusing to feed and help the poor.

Don't talk to the New York Times about trans issues. They will betray your trust and use your story to undermine access to care. That's exactly what Azeen Ghorayshi did with families of trans kids in Missouri.
heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

Covering this as a national ban is absolutely correct, and is the only framing that it needs to be. Its horrifying. There's no reason to think they'd stop at kids too.
