The thing about rupture and repair is that true repair happens constantly. Every time the hurt party is triggered, that requires a repair of equal measure, without blaming the hurt party for feeling upset. You have to say sorry and mean it

Before you speak:

1. Is it kind?
2. Is it true?
3. Is it needed right now?

1. The 1Q 2025 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment Map is complete, and there are big changes.

I have issued a "Do Not Travel" for transgender foreign citizens.

Risk has deteriorated broadly across the US.

Transgender youth see changes in previously safe states.

Here’s something fun I learned this week

If you find yourself in an ER in an abortion ban state and upon intake they discover you’re pregnant, from there on out your care will be different than any non-pregnant person’s. The fetus becomes primary.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

If you’re in the US, you can watch PBS for free using the app. There’s a series of documentaries called American Experience that’s really good—each is about a different event in history.

Go watch The one about the Gilded Age in season 30.

It feels so familiar, it’s genuinely eerie.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.
