I said this kind of jokingly the other day ago, but this time I'm dead serious:
I implore Idaho business owners and facility managers to designate their largest bathrooms as trans bathrooms, forcing cis people to choose between to sharing with trans folks or finding some other accommodation.
It turns out that arresting a lot more people for homelessness resulted in Spokane city’s public defender office being absolutely swamped with cases. Who would’ve predicted that?
Washington voters face two major education decisions this November. Initiative backers collected 400,000+ signatures for measures affecting transgender student athletes and parental access to school records.

City of Spokane proclamation for Transgender Day of Visibility.
Everyone deserves to live openly, authentically and safely. On this Transgender Day of Visibility and every day, we celebrate the resilience and contributions of our transgender friends and neighbors. We see you and stand with you.
Senator Chris Murphy and Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon have introduced a bill to effectively ban private equity from owning hospitals and nursing homes.
The bill would make PE-owned facilities ineligible for Medicare funding.
Nearly 500 hospitals + nursing homes are now PE controlled.
Still wondering if inequality is out of control?
This is one of those things I forget and relearn every few years. Washington state is number 2 on the list of most Catholic control of our hospitals.

Today's tarot spread: 3 cards to tell about the query; 2 "chance" cards that fell out while I was shuffling the deck; the influencer, the shadow. It's going to be a big day. #tarot
That *totally* scans. Heavy sigh.
Take the boat tour! It's amazing!
When clinics started putting out research that 97.5% of trans youth who socially transitioned maintained a stable gender identity for 5 years,the reaction was never going to be, "I guess this isn't a phase." It was always going to be to ban social transition.
Yeah... who would YOU trust to take over the Dems? Discuss.
All the spin you attempt, Matt Shea, cannot make any of this true. (I don't hate many politicians...maybe 2 total. This guy is definitely one of them.)

Yes, I do. It cost him.
If you think you have a problem with alcohol or drugs, there is a solution! Well, many solutions these days, but asking for help is a sogn of strength.
"The Other Washington"
The Washington State Insurance Commission issues a report every two years. The data from that report on gender-affirming care has increased significantly year over year for the past 5 years.
Researchers are using data sets like that to prove migrations.

Louise Moillon (c. 1610–1696) French painter in the Baroque era. One of the best still life painters of her time, she was trained by her father as she was unable to attend academies as a woman- who were thought to lack the ability required for artists #WomensArt
Can't. I'm wanted dead or alive.
