If I survive until the day when Epstein Files are published, tag me and say:
1) How many Black men were there?
2) How many trans women?
I remember that "prospensity to sexual violence and paedophilia among these groups" was one of the arguments to vote for Trump.😂

Just thinking about the profound impact on our lives that the craven, selfish, petty choices made by ‘access journalists’ has had. Never working again is the bare minimum of accountability.

For at least a year, I've been returning to the question, how would you know when it's time to leave the US? For this piece, I asked trans, nonbinary, and genderqueer Americans who, with their families and partners, have recently fled the country, about how they made this decision and how they left.
When Is It Time to Flee?
Trans people and their families are facing hard questions and choices as threats to their safety and rights proliferate.

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago.

As Esau Lopez was asphyxiated for the first 17 minutes of his life on Earth, the atmosphere in the room remained serene, even ecstatic. Acoustic music crooned from a speaker in a modest two-bedroom apartment in a suburb of Pennsylvania. “You are a queen,” murmured one of three friends in the room.
Only Esau’s mother, Gabrielle Lopez, felt something was wrong. She was pushing hard, but her son would not be born. “Can you help [him] out?” she asked, as Esau crowned. “Baby is coming,” the friend replied.

In a recent greenhouse study, researchers showed that yellow flag iris plants, working in symbiosis with fungi on their roots, can take up and transform certain PFAS compounds from water. This plant–fungus partnership enhanced pollutant removal compared with plants alone.
