Medical transition for trans kids is now banned for new referrals on the NHS. Trans kids in the UK can still go private or DIY (for now).

This means the new clinics that replaced GIDS are close to useless at best, conversion therapy at worst. 1/5

One major difference is what our children are fetishized for in these systems: Indians were perceived as good genetic stock to introduce into whiteness, as long as our culture could be stripped away and sterilized. Trans kids are instead just potential sex objects for men like Epstein.

The policy of these schools was outlined explicitly by the man who founded the first of them, Richard Henry Pratt: “Kill the Indian in him, and save the man.” The children who could not or did not adapt to white cishet Christian standards were killed and buried in mass graves in school grounds.

They were put through mass programs of reeducation and indoctrination we now remember under the far too neutral sounding name of "Indian Schools". Children were violently abused, forbidden from speaking their native language, forcibly converted into Christians, and then sold to white families.

One might think that due to the obvious racial difference that the white settlers would view Indian children as just as much targets for extermination as their parents, but this was surprisingly incorrect. Instead, these children were actually coveted, kidnapped by whites who murdered their parents

Some important trans reporting.

The AG mentioned is the ever-despicable Ken Paxton, and the judge who made this call — without even hearing evidence from the company selling binders — is Judge William C. Sowder.

Good and prompt coverage, too.

Texas AG uses courts to win limited ban on selling trans people underwear The judiciary didn’t give both sides a chance to make their arguments and ruled solely on attestation of the state of Texas via AG Paxton.

My latest shows how "red state" nonsense often spills over to the "blue states" even without the federal government flexing its muscles.

An image of a social media post on X (formerly Twitter) from the account of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (@KenPaxtonTX), posted on March 9, 2026.
The post text reads: "🚨🚨 BREAKING: I secured a victory against a New York-based child mutilator to stop the sale of chest binders to Texas girls. I will never allow radical companies like Lola Olivia to abuse Texas children by 'transitioning' them."
Below the text is an embedded image of an official press release from the Office of the Attorney General of Texas. The press release is titled: "Attorney General Ken Paxton Secures Victory Against New York-Based Child Mutilator to Stop the Sale of Chest Binders to Texas Girls."
The body of the release states that Attorney General Paxton secured a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against the New York City-based online retailer, Lola Olivia, Inc. It claims the company sold chest binders to children as young as nine years old without disclosing health risks. The release cites concerns regarding medical conditions, physical pain, and long-term bodily harm. It concludes with a quote from Paxton stating his office will continue to protect children against "radical, sick corporations."

“we all agreed rape jokes are bad” was about lazy men using rape as a shocking punchline to dehumanize women in like tweets and standup routines

don’t use that same maxim to run around demanding survivors of abuse discuss what happened to them only in somber, sad reverence.

Do you reckon the burden of child rearing disproportionately falls on women, and this might affect their willingness to have kids? What a novel insight.

I will do everything possible to protect my trans siblings from the heinous evil of Indiana Republicans when I'm elected, up to and including my promise to seek the impeachment of Governor Braun, Lt Governor Becwith and Attorney General Rokita for their many crimes against Hoosiers.

He only quit the Greens after he was suspended for transphobia. A matter of days ago, he was claiming that the Greens want to dish out "puberty blockers like confectionery."

What despicable little man.

Look, on the one hand, there’s a wildly illegal war going on & we’re murdering people on the high seas & it should immediately end this presidency. But on the other hand, now we’re really facing the “stagflation” that never existed but we pretended to be obsessed with when Joe Biden was president.

lol “have you tried being a feminine boy” one time at school a guy slammed my head into the table repeatedly and half the class chanted QUEER QUEER QUEER QUEER

and that’s just picking one event of hundreds. I didn’t just try it, I bled for it, and you know what? it still didn’t stick.

perfect representation of the vicious asininity of our persecution and the banal mechanisms of its implementation: these regular-ass people, the staff at the dmv, dutifully inflicting whatever absurd degradation they're told, no matter how blatantly, cruelly pointless. would you do that? will you?

The current treatment of trans people across the world doesn't actually remind me of Nazi Germany: the policies are not *just* exterminationist. They're instead similar to the policies of American settlers and now they answered "The Indian Question": kill the adults, convert the children.
