It breaks my heart to bring your attention to this.

With more than 520,000 deaths in the U.S. and tens of millions struggling financially, it appears Senate Republicans are attempting to weaponize the COVID relief package to ban trans kids from sports.

I really wish it weren't true, but there's a rumored amendment being brought forward by Senate Republicans to ban trans kids from playing in sports at every level from K-12 right up through college. They will attempt to tie-in COVID relief in an attack on trans children.
As you already know, Senate Republicans rejected the $15/hr minimum wage amend that would help struggling families. They forced the reduction of stimulus checks for Americans in need. But somehow, they're managing to find space to harm trans kids in this COVID relief legislation.

Fuck, I'm out of towels. She had only five here. Who can get by with only five towels in one evening?

Hi, it's me, your neighborhood reasonable adult. I heard Dr. Seuss books were "banned" in a Virginia school district, which surprised me! So, I did what any reasonable adult would do with internet access: I looked it up to get official details. (thread)
There's this remarkable tool for verifying claims that isn't yet more widely known. It's completely free. You don't even have to sign up with an email subscription. It's called "Google". So, I went to the Google, and typed in "Dr. Seuss ban Virginia" to see what I could find out.
That brought me to a CNN article written about the "banning" that led with this paragraph stating... oh, so, they weren't banned. They weren't removed. Students can still check them out as freely as they did yesterday. cnn.com/2021/03/01/us/… Image

I am deeply thankful to @RepCicilline, @SenJeffMerkley, @SenBooker, + @SenatorBaldwin for introducing the Equality Act.

But you might be wondering: why do we need this? Isn't discrimination against LGBTQ people already illegal?

Short answer: no.

(thread)

#EqualityAct
This is understandably confusing because the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in 2015 and banned employment discrimination against LGBTQ people last year. This gives the impression to most Americans that all discrimination is now illegal. In reality: not even most of it.
In most states, LGBTQ people are still vulnerable to discrimination in housing, credit, education, public spaces and services, federally funded programs, + jury service.

We're not just talking about the ability to buy wedding cakes, though that's bad enough. It's SO much more.

To Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison and any other man who needs to hear this: if you have to contextualize sexual violence against women by imagining it happening to your wife, daughter, etc. in order to appropriately act, you are very much part of the problem.

#auspol
There is something so darkly disgusting beyond the pale that sexual violence needs to be rationalized this way in order to be taken seriously. There is a not-so-subtle implication that it strikes at men themselves from some perverse "property" thinking. It's honestly horrific.
This is not a "men" problem. There are countless men who don't seem to need a detailed walkthrough of the ethical illustrations of sexual violence. I refuse to believe that men are incapable of naturally getting this. You get no excuses. Period.
