Just a reminder that when Dems turn against trans people for power, it's also a reminder that they'll do other things for power that you might not like too, such as supporting billionaires.
Gavin Newsom backs measure to kill the billionaire tax and ban future wealth taxes Gov. Gavin Newsom isn't just fighting the billionaire tax. He's backing Prop. 42, which would ban future wealth taxes in California, too.
I guess I'm not at all surprised, which is why I have never claimed the Democratic party. I've seen the way they treat other vulnerable people – the homeless, Palestinians, and the many people who fall through the cracks of their policies. Even trans folks.
I'm really sad y'all. I did not go into trans journalism to make "Dem capitulates on trans rights" my daily beat. It was a much better environment when I could count on everyone in our party, even the red state dems, to present a wall on this stuff. It just feels so bleak.

This is a really good take. I don't talk about AI a lot on here because it's one of those topics that, regardless of which 'side' you're on, almost no one can have a sane or reasonable discussion about it. I'm glad to see that there are a few people out there who are, indeed, doing just that.
There is a lot of doom in the air around the twin existential threats of AI and climate change. Can we use this moment of rapid infrastructure expansion to kickstart our transition to clean energy? My full conversation with climate tech expert Steph Speirs is live on YouTube now!

This Wednesday, Elon Musk called for the death sentence for transgender youth care providers. It was in reply to a post calling for full criminalization of all gender-affirming surgery. Musk is becoming even more radicalized in targeting trans people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Hey everyone, I'm really in a bind. I was just told earlier today that my job will be terminating me on October 13th, exactly one day before my upcoming requested paid medical leave to recover from bottom surgery. I intend to fight this in court, but I could really use some help in the meantime.
