Dunno if it was the accumulation of everything, but the under-19 trans care ban tonight hit me harder than I was expecting.

I appreciate Chris Geidner on this:
There will be challenges, and Law Dork will have coverage of them. It is, however, a failure of humanity, governing, advocacy, and journalism that we have gotten to this point.

Those who were insistently “just asking questions” and unceasingly pushing the needle further right — in addition to those who encouraged and then exploited that for their explicitly discriminatory or hateful aims — all bear a measure of responsibility for this, for making trans teens — and, with them, trans adults — fear for their lives tonight.
