I was sitting here, thinking, what if I did have to live out of a backpack or messenger bag for a couple of weeks.

The answer is I could stuff at least 10 pairs of my underwear into a pocket on one of those bags, so I’m not reading this.

7. Montana's court put it simply: if a cis woman's birth certificate says "M" by mistake, she can fix it. If a trans woman's says "M," she can't. Both want the same document. One gets it; the other doesn't. The only difference is sex assigned at birth. That is a law that by definition hinges on sex.

Worried about exposure to ICE, more immigrants hold off filing taxes A drop in filings among immigrants who regularly paid taxes may cost the government billions after the IRS agreed to share personal information with ICE.

The Trump administration’s decision to reverse the practice of keeping IRS information walled off and encourage undocumented immigrants to file tax returns has led to a marked decline in the number of immigrants willing to engage in the tax system.

I have to say this every time I see the term. The behaviors of the women in that story were entirely rational, the cops were incompetent, and the women were trying to survive.

Men labeled them as irrationally "attached to" their captors.

Imagine a study that found kids with ADHD have more visits to doctors than kids without ADHD — and used that finding to suggest ADHD treatment doesn't work. That's the standard of evidence the anti-trans braintrust is willing to accept.
