Substitute out “gender affirming care” with cancer care.
Or congenital organ defect repair.
Or mental health care.
This isn’t about providing fully informed consequence free care, because that simply doesn’t exist.
It’s about believing trans kids shouldn’t exist.

No you're crying at a mathy science comic.
![Comic. Panels up to the 10-year point are grayed out. New panels since the Ten Years comic, which chronicles the first ten years of PERSON 1's journey with cancer: (1) [two people in bed] PERSON 1 (woman): One more chapter? PERSON 2 (man): Don’t we both have to get up early? PERSON 1: Nnnnnggggh PERSON 2: Sure, good point. (2) [many people wearing masks, walking while looking at graphs on their phones] (3) [birds landing on people] PERSON 2 in beanie and scarf: Hah! They like *my* seeds best. PERSON 1 in scarf holding phone with a bird sitting on it: Wait, how do I take a picture of this one? (4) [two people rowing boats with tree landscape] (5) [Person 1 carries overflowing stack of things to Person 2 in bed] PERSON 1: I brought you honey lemon tea, more pillows, a cinnamon roll, Tylenol, another blanket, a– PERSON 2: It was just Appendicitis, I’m really– PERSON 1: *It is my turn to take care of you and I am going to do it right!* (6) [Two people in car] (7) [still in car) PERSON 1: Oh my god. PERSON 2: Oh my god. (8) [car driving] PERSON 1: Pull over! PERSON 2: I am! (9) [both people get out of car] (10) [Large colored panel of aurora borealis over water with both people looking on] (11) [Person 1 sits against tree while Person 2 lies on the ground] PERSON 1: Fifteen years. No sign of the cancer. (12) I *am* having some weird symptoms. Joint pain. Fatigue. I think I’m losing my close-up vision. PERSON 2: Yeah. Me too. (13) PERSON 2: I think we’re getting old. (14) PERSON 1: I guess that’s okay.

Now, what you hear is not a test, I'm rappin' to the beat
And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
You see, I am Wonder Mike, and I'd like to say hello
To the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
You see, I am Wonder Mike, and I'd like to say hello
To the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
When I’m alone in my room,
Sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind,
I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life,
I see I need love
Sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind,
I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life,
I see I need love
Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started
I called you up, but you weren't there, and I was broken-hearted
Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demanding
Opened the door up and to my surprise, there, you were standing

Rondellus's "Sabattum" album works very well for this. Most people won't know they're listening to Black Sabbath in Latin in medieval style.

So, if a doctor sexually assaulted somebody, but *not at work* they'd get to keep their license? I...don't think that's ok. I doubt anyone does. They don't think *anything* through, do they?

What this government is doing is wrong, and people are hurting. To every trans young person and every family feeling targeted right now: you are seen, you are valued, and you belong in Alberta.
We will keep fighting for your dignity, your safety, and your future.

Wtf is up with people signing off their emails with "Warmly"? Just say "Thanks," "Sincerely," or nothing at all.

Prometheus stole fire from the gods to give to the people.
Techbros, through AI, are stealing fire from the people and using it to warm themselves.
What precious fucking irony that is.
