California trans rights update:
Governor Newsom signed SB 497, @scottwiener.bsky.social’s Trans Shield Expansion bill. Really good!
Also signed: AB 82 (health care privacy law for gender affirming care), SB 59/AB 1084 (transgender records privacy).

HOWEVER he vetoed SB 418 HRT non-discrimination.

Totally not the point of this video (GO CANADA!) but the arena shows how different countries have different practices about how their flag is to be hung vertically.

Compared to a horizontal hanging, some flags are turned clockwise and others counterclockwise for their vertical presentation.
