Motherfucker, the math that powers your war machine is ARABIC. The woman who enabled the GPS that enables you to rain death on civilians was BLACK. And let’s not EVEN talk about that the sheer number of immigrants and non-western folks who make this country what it is.

Fuck. You.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Thank you, and Spiritual is exactly right!

The entire anti-trans care grift is built in treating the usual way medicine works as if it's a scandal.

Therapists figure out if a kid is trans the same way they figure out if they're depressed. They ask questions, maybe using a formal scale to quantify how kids compare to similar kids.

Blair Hodges interviewing Steven Page.

Blair Hodges interviewing Steven Page.

I interviewed a musical hero of mine for the Relationscapes podcast. Steven Page, formerly of Barenaked Ladies, joined me to talk about a song he wrote when he was twenty, all about the harms of restrictive gender roles. If you told my high school self this would happen I wouldn't have believed you.

Doctors say that vaccines are the best way to protect children against measles. A guy who eats dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says they should just swim in untreated sewage water instead. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

It’s β€œlet’s protect women in sports” until the President mocks a women’s hockey team.

It’s β€œlet’s get the birth rate up” until Tennessee makes abortion punishable by death.

It’s β€œwe’re going after dangerous criminals” until they realize it’s easier to lock up British grannies

Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.

My best Canadian friend invited me to talk about my faith and how I changed my mind about trans folks on his excellent Antifascist Dad podcast. Part one is available now.

My fav line in there is she "knows exactly what she did," thereby making the perv charge all the more interesting 🧐
