I’m going to say a couple of things, and they might be a little inflammatory, but I’m genuinely starting to believe that these anti trans, anti sex-ed, anti children’s rights bills are attempting recreate a culture of silence around sexual and emotional abuse. [CSA mention] Like, we KNOW that good, early, age appropriate sex ed in schools empowers kids to know if something that is happening to them is inappropriate, and gives them the tools to report it.

You take that away, who are you helping?

Unsophisticated and possibly unpopular opinion - but do you know what’s likely to stop people using so much nitrous?

Legalising weed. Weed’s not harmless, I know that, but then neither is booze. (I’m not prepared to argue on this one - I know too many people who’ve had their lives wrecked by both.)

But a safe, regulated, above board supply of weed would absolutely improve things.
