I want to be part of a political movement so big that my representative knows her political future hinges on keeping us happy, and I want to know that she can safely make compromises as a result that may be unpopular with some without having to worry about the overall end goal not being reached.

(trying to explain after being woken up from cryosleep) our society was, well. It was about power, right? So you had your presidents, and your public intellectuals, and your magicians. No, magicians. Those were the big three I guess. And they were all just sort of able to be pedophiles together

If you have not for one minute during this past year had to seriously consider whether you would commit a felony to save a kid's life, then I am not interested in your opinion about trans kids' health care. Just shut your face, you have nothing to add.

So, like, I can just take community college classes forever? They don't care that I already have 3 degrees? Am I going to get in trouble? This feels like cheating at life, people just passing on knowledge all willy-nilly.

Cis people really have no idea how it feels to watch a regime hold a press conference to admit, on camera, the pogrom against trans people they've been waging for 11 months is not only real, but they're going to double down on genocide and try to wipe out all the children first.

Any Democrat who thinks it's appropriate to "find common ground" with the Republicans on issues like high school sports teams is negotiating with a political party that does not believe trans people should exist. This policy will kill people, so maybe stop wringing your hands about volleyball.

Another disaster. This one has actual harmful consequences for trans kids and their families.
Under the proposed rule issued by the Trump Administration today, any Medicare- or Medicaid-participating hospital would be barred from providing gender-affirming care to *any child*, even if the care is not paid for by Medicare or Medicaid.
