1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.
An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.
It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

The Lemkin Institute has issued a *THIRD* trans genocide warning, noting the next stage is widespread containment - and this was before the 4th Circuit ruled today that states can essentially do whatever they want to make trans people "appreciate their sex".

For anyone outside of Minnesota who has been wondering why progressives & leftists absolutely despise Jacob Frey, here is a very clear cut example.
Six years ago WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Despite tens of millions of deaths, the world has not sufficiently addressed the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, and we are more vulnerable to future pandemics due to anti-science officials leading government agencies around the world.
If any news outlets are covering this and want to talk to a trans Genomics PhD who specialized in human genetics and the evolution of sex, please reach out to me
This is complete nonsense scientifically. It's fascist eugenics, not biology
Setting a horrifying precedent for genocide
"The U.S. is squarely within the early to middle stages of a genocidal process against trans people, the goal of which is to completely erase transgender people not only from public life but also from existence." - The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention, 3/11/26
We're thrilled to release the #LongCovid Treatment Guide! This is a collaboration with @rthm.bsky.social to help patients & providers explore treatment options together.
The guide focuses on 24 medications, but includes a few other interventions for breadth /1
We collated the latest data to enable conversations between people with Long COVID and their providers about what interventions to try.
I hope this helps folks make thoughtful decisions about what is right for them & decreases some suffering ❤️🩹
So subset of boycott supporters took it upon themselves to declare the Target boycott over but the people who actually started the movement have spoken out today no one talked to them and the boycott lives. 🧵
yeah it's super not great to have to make the decision on whether you'd prefer to die or be detransitioned by doctors
very bad actually!
Yeah the conversation about advance directives including things like ‘you will transfer me out of catholic hospitals regardless of if they say it will kill me’ was not exactly fun.
a lovely friend invited me to an event that was something i wished I could do for my entire life
it was in a supremely unsafe state for trans people
and i had to tell her I couldn’t go because of it
like if I needed to go to the hospital there they’d medically detransition me
I can not risk that
""I'm afraid I could be arrested if I travel to that state for your wedding and need to use the restroom at the venue ..."
Yes. There is no trolley problem. It is a thought experiment. It isn't prescriptive.

We need reparations for ICE victims.
Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.
I agree with this and it's something for which community groups should already be developing concrete plans. I think reparations are already due.
I guess this is kind of a PSA that if you’re fleeing one the worst states for trans people, consider Illinois for this reason.
Also other safe states should start doing this too, pls!
New horrors on the way for trans adults in the UK... (When they did a similar review for trans teens, they threw out 97% of all studies and then basically went "wow, there's not any research to demonstrate this if effective; guess we gotta ban it.") Now it looks like they're doing same for adults.
BREAKING: A judge refused to block a Kansas law that invalidates the driver’s licenses of transgender people and allows trans people to be sued for using public restrooms.
This isn't the final say, and we will keep fighting in court to stop this discriminatory law.
Since we're talking Polio.
In 2016 I got a Polio booster. The shot we get is considered "good enough" if you're living in places where polio is eradicated, but a booster is considered a good idea if you're going to places where Polio is still actively circulating.
Do with that info what you will
The law will not save you.

The article ends by calling for Congress to hold Kennedy accountable for his record. Let your representatives know you agree at standupforscience.net/impeach-rfkjr (4/4🧵)
#ImpeachRFKJR
Instead, he continued to spread misinformation and push politicised agendas at the expense of the country's most vulnerable. When called to account for his decisions by Congress, he has been evasive and combative. (3/4🧵)
They list all his (broken) promises, like open and honest engagement with everyone willing to work towards making the USA healthy again, and a new era of unbiased science without hidden conflicts of interest, secrecy, or profiteering. (2/4🧵)
Cover story from The Lancet, one of the world's most prestigious and high-impact general medical journals, that says "The destruction that Kennedy has wrought in 1 year might take generations to repair, and there is little hope for US health and science while he remains at the helm.
The Lancet spells out the case against RFK Jr so clearly.
www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... (1/4🧵)
Could not be clearer: RFK Jr. is waging a war on science and public health.
That’s what he was installed to do and he’s doing it.
Because RFK Jr. has allied himself with major corporate interests in America that saw how COVID threatened their bottom lines and said “never again.”
I was at CPJ for nearly a decade, helping to free journalists imprisoned by repressive governments around the world.
Never in the US.
Trump is destroying American principles. Free Estefany Rodríguez now.
