Facts. If they're safe enough for cis kids with hormonal issues, they're safe enough for trans kids (who, by definition, have hormonal issues).
When clueless people start on trans people, I ask, ”what do puberty blockers do?.” They either say “change gender or don’t know what to say.”
I say, ”All they do is delay puberty. That’s it. Stop them, puberty happens. They‘ve been used for 30 years in kids with early on set puberty.”

ME: Now Mom, just remember, there's a lot of disinformation and AI in your social feed and your friends' Facebook.
MOM: I know! My friend sent me this crazy post where someone used AI to make an image of a giant frog fighting Army troops!
ME: ... okay, no, that one's ... goddamit, Portland.

So Boyne experienced a fraction of the social opposition to his existence that trans folk have been enduring for decades and it 'pushed him to the edge'?
And of course he characterizes those who withdrew as 'bullies'.
Bullying is calling people abusers and rapists, not 'refusing to share a stage'.

This is found to be happening a lot more until people settle the fuck down about other people existing as their gender.

They don't even have tomatoes (which can be sweet) in it. The only thing it has in common with ketchup is sugar, a tiny bit of actual ketchup and the colour.
This could have worked wth tomato juice, I'm certain of it, but they are cowards.

Had a dream last night where my subconscious decided that:
"If we jig the Juggalo, we must also jug the gigolo."
This seemed very profound in context, but all that remained on waking was the phrase.

Well, gender affirming care means more trans folk survive to adulthood, so I can see why they'd think it's 'dangerous'.
Federal Trade Commission is apparently in the medical business now 🏛️🩺
They’re asking for evidence + stories about “dangers" of gender-affirming care. We know what they’re fishing for 🙄
But you want evidence?
Evidence that this care is ✨lifesaving✨ for trans kids?
Let’s flood with comments ⬇️

Funny, last I heard, the general practice was to ignore everyone else in a changing room. Is that no longer a thing?
A trans person being in the same room as you is not a violation of your privacy. Demanding to know whether a person in a room with you is trans or not IS a violation of their privacy. It's endemic of how fucking far the needle has moved that this simple fact is so lost on so many people.

South Park is not an ally. They are edgelords who will take a shot at anyone, especially marginalized folks. Them hitting a decent target is chance, not design.
Hey for real, South Park contributed more to transphobia being normalized in the pre-Rowling era more than any other media I can think. Garrison alone.
Them doing a Trump video where he has a tiny dick and is sleeping with Satan is not something you gotta applaud them over. They're assholes.
