Some Dems are running away from trans people. Abdul El-Sayed, Dem Senate Candidate in Michigan, is running towards them. When asked, he fully and unequivocally support trans youth care as a matter between parents, patients, and doctors. Subscribe to support our journalism.

“Awareness is certainly important; early identification saves kids. But acceptance is harder. It means your autistic kid doesn’t have to perform neurotypicality to be loved, included or taken seriously.” www.sltrib.com/opinion/comm... #autism #parenting #neurodiversity

sltrib.comVoices: My daughter showed me a drawing. It changed how I see autism.“For years, the rallying cry was autism awareness,” one Utah father writes in an op-ed. “Increasingly, it’s autism acceptance. That shift matters more than people realize.”

I’m glad they’re able to come here, but it’s gonna be so hard for them to stay here! As a wise man once said, “The rent is too damn high!” Seriously, though, I hope the rest of King and Snohomish Counties can get in on this. We should pull together.

NEW: Seattle might declare a civil emergency to help LGBTQ (mostly trans) people fleeing red states, so I looked for a Texas angle. An organizer told me that Texas is #1 among trans people looking to relocate: "The baseline hostility to their existence is unbearable." www.chron.com/culture/arti...

When I asked, my friend, the historian of medicine for her thoughts on a potential hantavirus pandemic she thought for a moment and then replied: you know it's not every president who gets the chance to catastrophically fuck up two pandemics.

COVID hasn’t gone away. It’s still causing infections, long-term health damage, and death in 2026 — but protection works, and it’s not too late to start. Read the full update: whn.global/scientific/c... #COVID #LongCOVID #COVIDIsNotOver #COVIDPandemic #PublicHealth #CleanAir #Masking #MaskUP

Every society has a moral obligation to provide housing for every member of the society. People with financial superabundance have a moral obligation to assist those less fortunate. The government has the right to oblige the assistance. #housing #homeless

I took a macro photo of Medusa, my ball python, which has a unique color morph; she's a Super Pastel Fire, aka Superfly. #naturephotography #nature #macrophotography #macro #ballpython #reptiles #snakes #eastcoastkin #photography

The International Olympic Committee has never, as far as I can tell, really been concerned with being fair, right and good. It is time to relegate this outdated monstrosity to the rubbish bin of history. #olympics

1. The scientists behind the infamous ROGD/Social Contagion myth have released a new study called AYAGDOS, and are recruiting unsuspecting trans youth. They're operating under Northwestern. Community leaders need help spreading the word to avoid the study. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Women are too often dismissed when it comes to their health told it’s “anxiety”, “your age” or “all tests are normal” #LongCovid is following a pattern many women already know. Women living with Long Covid deserve to be heard, believed and supported. #IWD2026 #NoMoreGaslighting

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

Has anyone else watched Grand Star; a kinda Snowpiercer adjacent post apocalyptic vaguely hopeful lite sci fi TV show? Not firing on all cylinders but not without some interest imo. #scifi

This is important and, also, not not new. There were reports of this in LA, Portland, and Chicago, at least, as well.

Just so people outside of MN know - a lot of the US citizens getting “arrested” by ICE never get processed at Whipple. They are roughed up during the arrest and then often dropped off miles from where they were picked up. It means we don’t know the true scale of what ICE is doing based on ICE stats

Hey Booksky, I finished and loved Ninth Life by Stark Holborn. So many things done right! Anyone have a great Sci Fi recommendation? #📚💙 #📚💚 #book #scifi #sciencefiction

If an autistic child asks you why you are doing something, please do not think they are criticizing you or asking you to stop. They want to know why you are doing what you are doing. They might be so happy and amazed at what you are doing they want to understand better. #autism #autistic

If an autistic child asks you what time you are leaving please do not think they are being impatient. They want to plan the day. Please tell them what time you think you will leave and how sure you are about that time. #autism

If an autistic child asks you why they should make the bed, please do not think they are saying they do not want to make the bed. They want to understand the benefits and drawbacks of bed making so they can make an informed decision. Perhaps then also explain what bed making entails. #autism

The purpose of companies is to provide a living wage to workers and produce useful materials for customers. If they break even and do these things they are a successful company. #livingwage #socialjustice
