Our fearless leader @POTUS is certainly busy today with all these proclamations, statements, fact sheets, and round tables!

A short 🧵on the government efforts to make this the best #TransDayOfVisibility ever!

1/
“Today, to hear directly about the joys, hopes, and challenges that transgender children are experiencing, the White House will host a Roundtable on Affirming Transgender Kids”

No information so far on who will be sitting at the roundtable. Feel free to guess.

2/
A massive White House Fact Sheet, including fun new ways to obfuscate sex on government documents, courtesy of @DHSgov.

3/
A statement from Joe Biden on #TransDayOfVisibility emphasizing (once again) suicide rates unsupported by data while perpetuating the myth that criticizing gender theology means you are hateful MAGA-hat-wearer:

4/
A 5-page document from the Office of Personnel Management laying out “Guidance Regarding Gender Identity and Inclusion in the Federal Workplace”

5/
A handy graphic from the Department of State to help you request an X gender marker on your passport. No documentation required!

If that isn’t enough, in addition to #TransDayOfVisibility, proclamations were signed for

Care Workers Month
National Sexual Assault Awareness & Prevention Month
National Donate Life Month
National Cancer Control Month
National Public Health Week
Second Chance Month

7/
Proclamations, cont’d:

National Child Abuse Prevention Month
World Autism Awareness Day
Education and Sharing Day
Arab American Heritage Month

8/
Finally, here’s the short proclamation following the Nashville shooting.

Not that I’m hinting at any imbalance.

9/9 ENDS

Still being called a ‘fool’ (& worse things) for my tweets about abortion, Federalism, voter turnout in state-level elections, inability to recognize that Roe v Wade spent a half-century being ripe for overturning, & bad understanding of basic civics.

One last ditch effort to engage in a *rational conversation. Read if you like. 😊 

🧵 1/
The meta-question:

To the extent one sincerely believes abortion will be completely banned at the federal level (i.e., no woman will have access to an abortion), exactly how will this ban come into being? What must happen in the federal and state legislatures or in the federal and state courts or in the executive branch of the federal government in order for abortion to be illegal throughout the United States.

2/
My position:

I support a woman’s right to an abortion, with certain restrictions (early in pregnancy, woman’s safety / health / life at stake, etc).

I don’t support a zero-restriction ever approach.

I will NEVER support a restriction in cases of r@pe & incest.

Andrew Sullivan is right.
Rachel Levine, @HHS_ASH, must go.

The Assistant Secretary of @HHSGov has been pushing the child butchery known as ‘gender-affirming medicine’ for years, but his recent interference with WPATH age limits is the final straw.

andrewsullivan.substack.com/p/rachel-levin…Image
“WPATH, conferred with Levine. They gave her [sic] an early embargoed version of SOC-8, w/ lower age limits for some treatments, & her office responded, horrified. They feared the listing of “specific minimum ages for treatment…under 18, will result in devastating legislation for trans care”

🎥 The film thread you’ve all been waiting for! 🎥

Here they are, the actors who didn’t need Harry Potter to make them famous (because they already were or would have been anyway), and the movies I associate them with.

Lights! Camera! Action!

If this doesn’t drive you to tears, you ain’t human.

THE PRIME OF MISS JEAN BRODIE (1969) 👩‍🏫

“You girls are my vocation. If I were to receive a proposal of marriage tomorrow from the Lord Lyon, King of Arms, I would decline it.”

A friend asked if I would compile some of the comments made specifically by publishing professionals in either their replies or their quote tweets to the announcement of the @SEENPublishing network.

So here we go. Ready?
🧵
1/
First, I am not naming names or taking (any additional) screenshots at this time.

Rather than call individuals to account, I think it’s more important to focus on the things people in positions of power within the publishing industry have said in reference to GC authors.

2/
A marketing executive at HarperCollinsUK:
“This is disgraceful”

A (very small) London-based publisher:
“we are NOT part of this ‘anonymous network’

A publicity manager at Atlantic Books (London):
“Very bored people being very bored here”

Hang onto your hats.

This is going to be a long thread of embarrassing quotes from politicians, athletes, & special interest groups reminding us that the thing that’s happening in San Francisco isn’t actually happening. 🧵

Hakeem Jeffries D-NY / @RepJeffries

“MAGA Republicans are trying to sensationalize an issue that doesn't really exist in the way that they are falsely portraying” 2/

dailycaller.com/2023/04/20/hak…
Rep. Mark Pocan D-WI /@repmarkpocan

“Some less scrupulous politicians feed that fear and are willing to bully people, even kids, to lift themselves. … They argue there’s a national problem if trans girls participate in girls school sports. That’s a lie.” 3/
