Trans teens have something to say www.theverge.com/features/940...

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics. It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT. It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse. Transgender care saves lives.

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

The new ruler of the universe has had enough of your nonsense.

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really. Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are. This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Have an overwhelming desire today to walk down to Other Music on my lunch break and blow my entire paycheck in the Out Section.

the science is “this is the single best set of interventions against teen and also adult suicide we have for affected populations”

this is what you look like as a Harry Potter fan in 2025

1. On Tuesday, Congresswoman Sarah McBride gave a interview with Ezra Klein at the New York Times. It has been used to seed the ground for a rightward shift in the Democratic Party on trans rights. Some allies have failed to grasp the problems with her approach. Here's what McBride gets wrong.

Just going to leave this here without comment

This framing exists because the decision is instantly obvious as one of the legal atrocities of US history, like Dred Scot, the 1870s Civil Rights Cases, Korematsu. The Times doesn’t want to say “The Supreme Court stripped rights out of law” so instead it says “Here’s why they did it to themselves”

Everyone always talks ABOUT trans kids, but they never talk TO trans kids I interviewed Trans Kids Deserve Better. These kids are so brave. Check it out! youtu.be/lQ-C4WqBf30

Justin Brannan is our endorsement for Comptroller. A big, important job: Vote for him, NYC!

When I heard the mom of a trans girl say the night her daughter came out to her was the first time she'd ever seen her child happy, I knew it was a story I needed to share. These are the stories the public isn't hearing. An honor to get to report on 3 family's journeys for @teenvogue.com.

let’s goooo

Took me a bit to process how big a deal this report actually is--its thus far the only review to look at the entire body of currently available research. It took two years to conduct, stands at 1,000 pages, and completely contradicts the Cass Review and the common arguments for bans on this care.

Now we know who the inspiration for Voldemort was.

This is all going to get harder, but they literally cannot legislate you out of existence. When tomorrow arrives, you will still be here, you will still be who you are, and we will all still be here with you.

Yesterday, every single Republican & 30 Democrats supported Trump's $8.8 billion bomb shipment to help Netanyahu continue his annihilation of the Palestinian people. That isn't what the American people want. Below are my floor remarks to stop the sale. www.sanders.senate.gov/press-releas...

the strongest case for socializing the ownership of capital is that the current owners of capital are idiots

"Trans people are not scapegoated because we are different. We are scapegoated because we seemingly undermine difference itself. Social structures tolerate difference within their order, but we present a difference to the order." www.frieze.com/article/scap...

I wrote about how and why we became the scapegoat: www.frieze.com/article/scap...

Sometimes, you just need nice things.

If you were outraged by the crimes against civilians on Oct 7th but not by the many more crimes against civilians *since* Oct 7th - just this week: kids being burned from head to toe; having their limbs amputated without anesthetic - then you don’t actually care about crimes against civilians.

Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

shitty governor, shitty senators, criminal mayor, only in new york baybee!

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper... But when Germany, Switzerland, and Austria release pro-trans youth care guidelines, not a single article anywhere but mine?

A crowd has gathered for the NYC protest against the illegal ICE arrest of Columbia grad student Mahmoud Khalil. Protesters are chanting and calling for his immediate release. Multiple helicopters overhead.

This is exactly it.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

I have no words.

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

I did a thing.

It's not just Stonewall, it's all over NPS.gov - They're erasing Trans people from history. Those photos of Nazis burning books in 1933? Those were books on gender and sexuality. This is a 21st century book burning in the public square. It's Memoricide - a speedbump on the road to Genocide.

These f**king idiots

The real leader of the Democratic Party and the opposition to the far right coup is here:

Amen. Telling lies and pushing false narratives about a vulnerable community is not being "contrarian"

She's gone! Pamela Paul, according to the intelligencer, is out at the Times this spring due to job cuts at the NYT. She had previously published egregious falsehoods about transgender care and got upset with our outlet Erin In The Morning when challenged. nymag.com/intelligence...

Extremism experts say a now-familiar playbook to scapegoat transgender people in the wake of high-profile tragedies is part of a political strategy to sow division and expand authoritarian control.
