Some important trans reporting.

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

Good and prompt coverage, too.

The FDA ruling that binders count as medical devices has already been used to limit their sale in Texas.

I think that at this point we should be asking the governments of blue states what their policies/positions are with respect to trans people escaping from red states.
Because at least for the near future, things are going to get worse in red states before they get ant better.

The therapist I went to to get a letter to start T never gave me one. When I asked how long it would be, after seeing her a few months, she told me the local Planned Parenthood had just started offering gender-affirming hormone therapy.

She also said something I've never forgotten...

Remember last month when I said the Kansas ID bill was the worst anti-trans bill of the 21st century? This has already overtaken it.

When clinics started putting out research that 97.5% of trans youth who socially transitioned maintained a stable gender identity for 5 years,the reaction was never going to be, "I guess this isn't a phase." It was always going to be to ban social transition.

The reason why some people think the New York Times is a liberal paper is because in like 1986 a far right wing talk radio simpleton called the New York Times a liberal paper. Most American political thought is based on scenarios like this

The US has no industrial capacity to produce the munitions needed to fight a large scale conflict in Iran. If this spirals into a protracted conflict, the US will not be able to sustain a bombing campaign. It must put troops on the ground. They have no plan for this.

Gender-fascist lawmakers were never were going to stop at youth. They want to kill all trans people β€” and they're moving towards that, one bill at a time.

it's awesome how you can be a licensed medical doctor, say blatantly and transparently false statements about the efficacy and safety of generic medication available for decades, and The Daily Hitler will publish an article sucking you off for being a brave patriot concerned for peoples' well-being.

Trans youth and the trans community are not being served by rallies dominated by politicians. We need a more militant approach. "Power concedes nothing without a demand," as Frederick Douglass said.
