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.

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad

"'I used to come over here quite often to look at her books,' Magrat confessed. 'And... and she liked to cook foreign food and no-one else round here would eat it, so I'd come up to keep her company.'

'Ah-ha! Curryin' favour!' snapped Granny."
Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal

"They say that the prospect of being hanged in the morning concentrates a man’s mind wonderfully; unfortunately, what the mind inevitably concentrates on is that it is in a body that, in the morning, is going to be hanged."
Discworld QOTD, from Moving Pictures

"‘Er, I was just wondering, Mr. Dibbler... what is my motivation for this scene?’

‘Motivation?’

‘Yes. Er, I got to know, see,’ said Rock.

‘How about: I’ll fire you if you don’t do it properly?’

Rock grinned. ‘Right you are, Mr. Dibbler,’ he said."

"Dickens is infinitely greater than his critics." True, but in this case the critic comes very close. Remembering John Carey's work this morning by rereading one of my favorite of his books.

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.”

Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.

This Georgia flip is in a district that the GOP drew to drown Democratic voters in Athens into a neighboring red county, Oconee.

But tonight, Dems in Athens were out in FULL FORCE to swamp that gerrymander.

That others in politics can’t or won’t say that this is obscene hits at the heart of the problems we face.
