A good rule of thumb: anyone who can define the parameters of "Hebephilia" and "Ephebophilia"-- and can also tell you the age of consent in many states-- is not someone you want babysitting your child.

Of course patients should be seen in 90 minutes in the ER and 95% of cancer surgeries should completed by 56 days but, rather increasing resources, it’s doctors who are financially penalized for the lack of resources and fined $500k if they object:

Now I’m an empty nester and I’m bored and it’s cold and dark and my friends are all auditioning. So here we go!

An analysis of news pieces about Trump’s anti-trans decrees found that “70 percent did not include a quote from a single trans person. Instead, journalists turned to cisgender sources — mostly government officials — to speak about trans people, their lives, and how they would be affected.”
NEW: Firings of LGBTQ staff at NBC and Condé Nast have worsened an already dire picture for legacy news media when it comes to covering the trans community.
From @billiejsweeney.bsky.social, a close look at our increasingly degraded media environment.
