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.

The Dems are far from perfect, but the vast majority of them seem to have the best interests of their constituents at heart, and they deserve support in an imperfect system. This cannot be said of the scum in the Rep party.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

“From the 1950s to the 1970s, federal contractors building the system deliberately mapped routes that rammed through and dismantled Black neighborhoods — payback, some say, for gains made during the Civil Rights Movement.”

It really doesn't bode well for this country that people still think the problem was a specific politician... and not the colossal failure of American voters.

There will be no introspection, no strategizing, just more of the same ignorant BS.

The Coates-Klein debate (and meta-debate) just reinforces my belief that we elevated the wrong MLK passage.

Not the optimistic “content of their character” I Have A Dream speech.

But the “white moderate … [who] advises the Negro to wait for a ‘more convenient season’” Letter From Birmingham Jail.

It turns out that protecting hate speech did not create the conditions to protect other kinds of speech; instead, it protected hate and allowed hate movements to take over all the institutions of that might have defended the rest of us.
