Thank you for leading the way on fact checking this propaganda. Your work really shifted the way other journalists and outlets started covering this.

I'm a psychologist and trans man and I just wrote a thorough response to the psychotherapy sections.

Thank you for these endorsements ❤️❤️! Also I've gotta learn how things on here work. But I really miss the exchange of ideas and true networking of pre-Musk Twitter. 🤞🏻 I'm hopeful about blue sky. How are you liking it?
