You type a lot of words, but you don't engage in anything meaningful. 

You think you're better than TexAgs, but you're not.  Go to them, now, they call you.  You can't refuse.

You should take me off ignore more.

    Two years ago in June, the commencement speech at Northwestern University contained this gem: "The best way to spot an idiot, look for the person who is cruel. Let me explain. When we see someone

I see Ana is looking to replace Sack’s Thursday night benders.

I'd like to thank everyone again who messaged me over the last two days and donated to my organization. It really means a lot to me, as well as the wider queer community in Austin. Even here, we have fewer actual allies than you might think, and every little bit of help that we can get makes a big difference in us being able to provide care to some of the most vulnerable people in Texas at no-cost to the patient.

I am deeply touched by the Surly generosity.

And for those who let me know that our donation page is kind of shitty, i passed that along to our marketing director, and she said "yeah we know it sucks but we can't afford to replace it." So thanks for sticking it through and donating. ❤️

Oh, you mean the great Christian??? Is ana a Christian? I wonder how his triple blind studies and stringent rules apply to proving his god.

See I doubt that the texags crew could really provide this type of substance. I have no doubt however that they are capable of just resorting to calling other people disgusting human beings and liars cause they have broken brains.

Ana is not the most qualified, he cherry picks and misrepresents even the studies he quotes.

I don't think that I have misrepresented any study.  But happy to dig in if you feel that there are specific examples that you want to discuss.

Know how I know this? He’s said not one thing about legislating this crap.

That's also not true. I told you that you were "conflating my position wrt the lack of evidence supporting use of hormonal drug therapy in adolescents with stupid bathroom bills or other wrong headed legislation." 

I can appreciate that you want to generalize your experience with hormonal treatment as an individual that transitioned in the what, 3rd-4th decade of life, with youth during early puberty, but that is not how any of this works. I can certainly understand that you want for them the positive outcomes you feel that you have benefited from, but you also have to recognize, as the Swedes and others have, that the demographic shifts being observed over the last few decades suggest that there are variety of dynamic factors that limit the generalizability of your experience.  Feel free to just chalk that all up to "pure hate", but that is fucking lazy.

If it’s not hate then what is it? Why do you care so much? They aren’t your kids. They have doctors and parents advising them. What is the point of all of this for you?

Don’t you get it, Ana is the savior. A Christ like figure for the far right.

I'll just repost since paying attention is hard for some of y'all. 

 

I am not particularly uncomfortable with people seeking treatment. And to be honest, I don't really personally care if some parent desperate to give relief to their child decides to administer puberty blockers and chase that with exogenous hormones. I can understand that in certain situations where other alternatives have been exhausted, people will cling to anything representing a glimmer of hope. OTOH, I am very uncomfortable with people strongly stating that the clinical research evidence is clear and demonstrates x, y, and z benefits with A and B medications when it does nothing of the sort. That is medical misinformation. I know that I will hear all types of rhetoric about why this case is different than all the others, why the well designed research studies are not tenable, and that anyone who points out the reality of the evidence is a fascist right winger [or whatever] nonsense. I get that. Doesn't change the evidence.  

I work with teenage trans kids every fucking day, and almost every one of them has told me how much they wish they hadn't gone through puberty as their born sex; how their puberty was the cause of their worst gender dysphoria; how it led them to slicing up their wrists; but, now they have a great excuse to wear arm sleeves, which is quite femme (if stereotypical). Blah blah blah, it's just anecdotal evidence that can be found at every clinic across the world that provides gender-affirming care. 

We won't get the data Ana insists on unless we actually treat trans children. Psychotherapy, antidepressants, counseling, and every other treatment modality the right wants to force trans people through before even considering hormones is no fucking match for gender dysphoria and the typical transphobic social milieu

Michelle is a terrible judge on Drag Race, but she is 100% correct here. For the right: drag that denigrates women is acceptable. Drag that celebrates femininity and gender fluidity is dangerous.

You and a majority of trans girls on the apps in Austin lmao. Missing from any City Council priorities that I've seen listed anywhere is a plan to attract more tops of all sapphic-identified people to Austin. The dearth is real and is a real problem. Some of us are suffering out there.

No surprise. It’s in the playbook.

I'm not an attorney but I don't see how this is libel. If I called for Judaism to be eradicated, would it be incorrect to say that I called for Jewish people to be eradicated? Not sure how he thinks using the term "transgenderism" is fooling anyone

She is trying to grift 'mad.' It's TikTok and that's where you try out your grift game to see if it hits.

Plus all the shit for sale in every Hawaii'n gift shop I've ever been.

But somebody could blow some minds putting together an 80's montage of how fucking goofy we used to dress as boys.  

Between the JAMS sweatsuits and the Zubaz pants, we were just a few egg cells away from being full-on chicks.

I don't know how you dressed in the 80s, but this is how me and my friends dressed.
