If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.

What do you do when you've launched a moral panic about transgender athletes in the WNBA, but there has never been an active trans player in the league? Simple: you start a conspiracy theory about every single woman on the court.

wired.comThere Are No Trans Women in the WNBA, so Right-Wingers Are Making Some UpAs culture warriors continue to stoke the flames of a gender panic in professional sports, wild conspiracy theories are coming into play.

"Even if McConnell did have a health emergency, leftists have no right to come between him and his doctor. There are some lines you just don’t cross, and every American deserves the right to make decisions on their health in accordance with the medical professionals they trust."

I just moved a refrigerator into a fifth-floor walkup with Mitch McConnell. At one point, he held the whole thing up with just one hand. It was a little intimidating how healthy and strong and virile he is.

It’s not just that due process doesn’t apply to political candidates—it’s literally the opposite of the evidentiary standard for political candidates. The burden is entirely on *them* to prove to *us* that they possess the integrity and good sense to hold office.

If you have someone with combat/war zone experience in your life we will also appreciate being fed treats to help us not be scared.

In lieu of the thing at the White House, I urge you to watch this bout between two seasoned middleweights, Shirley and Inspector Waffles.

President Trump is a racist rapist who has us mired in a mindlessly stupid war. But Zohran Mamdani just raised taxes on the $12 million trophy condo I spend two weeks in each year. I have never felt more politically homeless.

The whole Easter spread. I'm most proud of the sandwiches. Chicken, pesto, and mozzarella on ciabatta. Turkey, bacon, and white cheddar on Italian. Ham and brie with Dijon on baguette. And that fruit! #food 🍜

Being married is easy, I don't know why people complain about it. All you have to do is ask what your partner needs, actually listen to the answer, then figure out how you're going to train a variety of woodland creatures to put ancient curses on their enemies. It's literally so simple.

Everything is yuck, so let's catch up with what we've been cooking? 🙃 Cheesy stuffed shells in sauce from the tomatoes we grew in our little greenhouse this winter. #food 🍜 What's everyone else having lately?

🥵Absolutely bonkers. As of 2pm CDT, nearly 200 locations across the U.S. have broken or tied their daily heat record for March 20th. 45 of these have also set all-time March records. Another ~85 are within 3° of breaking theirs before the day ends.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...
