If they're trying to make me feel bad for Shiv, that's just not gonna happen. She's a fun character, but I don't feel sorry for her. Ease up on the lamenting piano chords.
People who think this is a spoiler are funny, as if every episode doesn't have Shiv being dissed in some way, shape, or form by Logan.
Shiv's being insulted or talked down to! That never happens in the show!
I also have a crush on Shiv, which very much complicates all this, but I'm told I'm not alone. There are dozens of us.

@KaleighRogers @AlexSamuelsx5 @Tonyhkchow First of all, trans people were not part of the story here. Nor were lesbians. Nor were bisexual people. Gawked at, maybe, but they interviewed two gay cis men with backwards-ass beliefs, threw in some anti-LGBTQ headlines and Williams Institute polling, and called it a day.
@KaleighRogers @AlexSamuelsx5 @Tonyhkchow It doesn't even cover the worst aspects of anti-LGBTQ actions among the GOP. It doesn't mention the onslaught of legislation THIS YEAR against trans children. It doesn't mention that opposition against same-sex marriage was still endorsed in the GOP's platform LAST YEAR.
@KaleighRogers @AlexSamuelsx5 @Tonyhkchow It doesn't mention that in 30 states RIGHT NOW, even cis gay men can be denied housing, public accommodations, credit, jury service, and adoption access solely for being gay. And that the GOP is weaponizing transphobia to hold this status quo.

Hi there, I live in D.C. and when I saw this post, I was deeply skeptical because I haven't seen gas prices this high anywhere in the District. So, I did some digging.

Summary: yes, Mr. Blitzer's pic here is accurate and also extremely misleading. Here's why...

(thread)
From what I can tell, there are about 35-40 active Exxon gas station locations in D.C. proper. It was unclear to me if several of the locations I looked up are active, so I'm including those in this range.
Google is kind enough to provide gas price updates for individual stations through its map function.

Mr. Blitzer took a pic of a gas station where Regular is $4.30/gallon.

There are two Exxons in D.C. with that price: 200 Mass Ave. NE and 5521 Conn Ave. NE

The people whom you're afraid to engage on trans rights and systemic racism and misogyny, because you've been led to believe these are distracting "culture wars" that will hurt Democrats, have spent this week attacking Big Bird for making kids feel safe getting a COVID shot.
My point here is that there is no such thing as static "culture wars". If you stopped talking about all these others things under the assumption it'll make Democrats more appealing, "culture war" proponents would simply and easily find something else to make a "culture war".
These people spent enormous time earlier this year falsely claiming that school districts and public libraries were banning Dr. Seuss. It wasn't true. At all. But it got significant media attention. Soon, people were asked which side they're on: ban Dr. Seuss or not?

I honestly wonder how long Dr. Wen would advise trans folks to wait for full equality. Five years? Ten years? At what point do trans people become worthy of dignity and rights and not reduced to a "culture war". Please advise, @DrLeanaWen. I would love some guidance.
I'm not kidding. I really would love an answer here.

If trans folks are such a cultural impediment to more important objectives, what is the metric @DrLeanaWen would advise to gauge our entry into a demand for full equality? Why are we bargaining chips? Why are we negotiable?
If trans people are still vulnerable to being denied housing based solely on our gender identity because of an intentional absence of anti-discrimination protections in 30 states, one wonders why @DrLeanaWen would imply this somehow isn't a public safety issue?

The price-of-milk story on CNN today is astonishingly incomplete and sloppy. It reminds me of when the Dr. Seuss controversy got ramped up, and despite little evidence for the claim and a lot of missing context, some reporters just ran with it. Disappointing, to say the least.
1. They failed to verify the price of milk claimed by this family, which is false.

2. They failed to disclose that several of the eight kids are grown adults over 21.

3. Or that the parents are Republicans.

4. Or a rational comparison of grocery prices.

I mean...
I'm not even opposed to featuring this family in a segment for a different perspective, but all relevant context that would undermine their claims have either been bizarrely overlooked or--and I hope this isn't the case--completely ignored.
