While I don't disagree with you, I also hope you don't live in the US and find yourself in a situation where you or a family member depend on your health insurance for survival.

Okay. I'm an American citizen living in the States. Our policing systems are incredibly messed up and militarized.

Bosses will do just about anything to point the finger at anyone but their own behavior. Poor strategy, poor communication, changing directions like a 4yo on too much sugar.

Flagging anyways because nothing good comes of a bunch of cis people discussing trans health care on HN. You have no idea what going through puberty with the wrong hormones is like for someone who is trans or how much work is needed to undo

I agree about the Bud Lite fiasco. It's pretty shameful when a major corporation cannot stand up to bullies and fascists.

Something absurd like asking someone how they want to be referred to in the third person?

It's pretty hard to have good faith to people who have bullied and been deceptive to attain their goal of undermining bodily autonomy.

And in NYC the USS Intrepid is another Essex-class museum. If you've served on one of these, you can arrange for a special tour.

Maybe they should pay more. That's usually the way to attract workers.

Yes. Things that can blow up and can break people's houses and can damage sensitive ecosystems should be treated with more caution not less.

If anyone thinks this overreach will stop with trans people, you're fooling yourself. They will not stop until they have their christofacist state, unless we stop them every step of the way. Also, why is this flagged? Exclusionary chan

One anecdote that sounds like it should have been handled by the administration of the school much better than it was. Trans males should not be competing in girls sports. They are only doing so because of the right's insistence on unc

Here's the thing, if the right actually was honest, they would be supportive of social transitioning, because that is how a kid can figure out their transness. Maybe for some kids, it's an experiment and they're really cis, b

"well regulated"... that means it can, is even mandated, to be regulated. many people don't wish to live in a world of open carry, and minimal requirements to own and carry a gun. just because the current SCOTUS is an activis
