This week Trump's ICE fascists illegally kidnapped & deported a 19-year-old girl to Honduras despite a court order to keep her in the USA—while Trump himself pardoned Juan Orlando Hernandez, convicted of running Honduras "like a narco-state" & accepted millions in bribes from drug traffickers. smh.

If you shop on Black Friday, shop only at small biz, minority owned biz, women owned biz, or support independent media.

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.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

How AP News whitewashes genocide.

TESTING THE CEASEFIRE??

Israel is *BREAKING* the ceasefire. Do you really think this would be the headline if Hamas killed 24 Israelis?

AP doesn’t even have the integrity to say Israel killed Palestinians. “Are dead” is passive to avoid attributing liability.

DOJ estimates Epstein trafficked at least 200 children.

And, experts estimate ~2600 minors were forced into a child marriage in the United States in 2025—a trend expected to continue in 2026.

Here’s how bad the situation is, and what we can do to stop it.

Friends, I'm looking to speak with people who are upset about the Democrats' shutdown deal and who can speak about how increasing healthcare costs will impact them. If that's you, I can be reached via DM or at [email protected]. We can also protect people's identities as needed.

"Is there a more feckless, spineless opposition party anywhere in the democratic world? Why do Democrats insist on repeatedly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory?"

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.

Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

The NYC mayoral election is not an indictment on Trump, but the Democratic Party. Stale, bland, uninspired leadership isn’t what the people want. Zohran Mamdani is young and will make mistakes but proud of New Yorkers for at least being willing to try disruption.

You have until Sunday SUNDAY Sunday to order a Biology is Bigger than Binaries shirt. I don't have room in my house for piles of shirts so our shirts are always time-limited.

Designed by @franzanth.bsky.social, supports @skypeascientist.bsky.social, looks cool as hell.

Get one: SquidFacts.net
I'm doing another print run of these "Biology is Bigger than Binaries" shirts!

Back, quite literally, by popular demand. Bullying works, sure, but so does a bunch of nice cutie patooties politely asking!

Order 'em now, I'll mail 'em in early November.
