She/Her, trans woman, reader, sponge of practical knowledge. Happily married, so I block chasers.
There are many reasons Newson should not get your vote. He will NEVER get mine.
I’ve watched Gavin Newsom’s career for 20+ years. It’s a buffet of big lies & failed hopes

Like Trump, he breaks promises, serves billionaire interests & mistakes social media theatrics for leadership.

Is that what we need in 2028?

It really shouldn't be controversial. If a kid is so dysphoric that they NEED surgery, that they obtain in consultation with their doctor, with the consent of their families, that is a SERIOUS medical condition that the government should NOT be second-guessing!

SCOOP: The Department of Health and Human Services has been using the term “sex-rejecting procedures” to describe gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary individuals.

The term is not clinical or medical. It comes from a Christian Right group.

The department refers to gender-affirming care as “sex-denying procedures,” a term coined by the Ethics and Public Policy Center.

In an alarming development, it appears the UK Government covered up a massive spike in trans youth suicides after restrictions.

Then covered it up again when caught.

Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country.

We rewatched the halftime show and the closing is so powerful. Bad Bunny’s final messages during his Super Bowl performance:
“The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”

They got people used to talking about women being inferior and needing gender segregation to protect them in the realm of sports and now they will seek to use that framework in every aspect of life. They'll argue women aren't equipped biologically to be in law enforcement or the military.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.
