🎉 The State of Texas has been BLOCKED–yet, again–from investigating parents who work with their health care providers to provide their trans adolescent children with necessary medical care!

Crimo apprehended alive.
I JUST WANT TO KNOW HOW THE POLICE MANAGE TO TAKE MASS SHOOTERS ALIVE BUT CANT LET BLACK FOLKS SURVIVE A TRAFFIC STOP WITHOUT 90 BULLETS FIRED.
Like how? How does this work???

NEW: Today, we issued a joint statement with partner organizations calling for immediate, essential #SCOTUS and democracy reforms to address the constitutional crisis we are in. The Senate MUST lift the filibuster to get it done.

Florida Medicaid has now published its rule on denying gender affirming care coverage for ADULTS.
It bans medicaid coverage for:
- Hormones
- Gender affirming surgery
- ANY other procedures for altering primary and secondary sex characteristics.
We told you adults were next.

Last week, I hit seven years on testosterone. Feels like so much longer.
Here's a video about patience, realistic expectations, and... gardening.
In a true miracle, I only mentioned #OurFlagMeansDeath ONCE.
Watch here & maybe share if you're feelin' it: youtube.com/watch?v=PA1i6fV5…

Transgender health must be lead by transgender people. Our lived experience is a form of expertise, and to talk about transgender people without positioning us as leaders in the conversation reinforces the disparities we face.

The notion of regretting a gender transition sticks with cis people so hard because they're terrified of the body horror of being left with permanent physical changes--or, as most trans people know it, dysphoria

Arizona Governor Doug Ducey just signed two bills into law that deny trans youth access to life-saving, medically-necessary health care and block them from playing school sports.
These bills aim to hurt trans youth, and they are not just cruel—they are illegal.

Wisconsin AB977 is DEAD! This bill would have banned gender affirming healthcare for transgender teenagers in Wisconsin, forcibly medically detransitioning many of them.
Anti-trans bills are falling one after another this week!
Another one bites the dust.

"but if you're feminine and like mxn why not just be a girl?" who knows! who gives a fuck!
The enforced gender binary makes no sense, so why does breaking it have to?

New Hampshire has voted to table HB1651! This bill would have copied Texas' current treatment of parents of trans kids as child abusers. This is a big victory for trans youth in New Hampshire!
Another anti-trans bill bites the dust.

A TX court of appeals just dismissed the state's attempt to toss out our win last week that protects our clients from Gov. Abbott’s unlawful directives to treat gender-affirming care as abuse.
Gender-affirming care is essential & life-saving. We will keep fighting to protect it.

Great round-up of resources for Texan trans/nonbinary youth and their families:

to parents of trans kids across the country, if i can recommend one thing to work on today (besides hugging your babies harder than ever) it's to start building a "safe folder"

The transitions we are entering in Denmark & elsewhere— pushing the burden on the individual, to those on the margins, & accepting of loss as beyond our control— aren’t transitions in the nature of the virus.
Right or wrong, they are our transitions simply of our choosing. /end

So let me get this straight: The Canadian women's hockey team wore N95 masks while easily beating Russia 6-1 at the Olympics...but some people are so inconvenienced by having to wear a mask that they're holding the city of Ottawa under siege & claiming it's all about "freedom?"
