@JoyceDecerce @OrganizerMemes — if you bruise easily and don’t heal you may be low in vit C
— low dose (<3mg) melatonin is best
— probiotic fiber gummy
— zinc + vit C if sick
— liposomal vitamins worked better for me

Hi should I be taking vitamins ? Is it a scam? Is there a specific one I should be taking
English
@JoyceDecerce @OrganizerMemes — not a scam but vet sources
— take only what you need, but know testing isn’t the end all be all as absorption matters too
— moms are right re: CoQ10+omega-3s
— if youre fatigued u may be low in vitamin B or D

It’s the last day of Pride month, and since the realities of being from central FL mean my story won’t be published, I’m sharing it now myself:

jordan (like many other trans louisianans) has had their gender affirming health care taken away by our maga government. they had top surgery scheduled to be completely covered by louisiana medicaid, but the state legislature passed a law blocking medicaid from covering all transition related surgeries. they now have to pay out of pocket. please help out if you are able 💜

Republican Governor Ron DeSantis says that Florida does not welcome Andrew Tate and his brother, following news of them flying to Florida from Romania: "No: Florida is not a place where you're welcome with that type of conduct. Our Attorney General, James Uthmeier, is looking into what state hooks and jurisdictions we have to deal with this.”

@Drew72376298 @dreamslips Hi, nonbinary person here. I was diagnosed with gender dysphoria just like other trans people. I just had top surgery in January. Access to surgery covered by insurance is made possible because of my diagnosis. What you are arguing for would strip healthcare from nonbinary people
English
@dreamslips im sorry but the experience of a NON BINARY person and a TRANS person are so completely different at the end of the day and so are their journeys. THEY ARE NOT THE FUCKING SAME and saying this is actually erasing people
English
so cool to be in the middle of a trans woman being stripped of her legal identity by the state and going “won’t someone think about the nonbinary people”

@gxllian sometimes I get my own texts and it’s like a little jump scare if I’m not expecting it

we don’t “encourage” others to not be antiblack/queermisic in supposed “safe spaces”. we REQUIRE them to be. so why is REQUIRING the safety of disabled people viewed as “policing”? if you want to be called in/out when you do harm, why do you feel “insulted” when i do? /rhetorical

i will die on the hill that masking & cleaning the air are *crucial* in community care, not “optional”. part of the problem is people don’t see disableism on the same scale as other forms of marginalization. they don’t see it as something that impacts EVERYONE in the “community”.

@dottat1 @NoCRTinSchools @EndWokeness taking your q in good faith, if someone already has HIV, they need consistent medication to manage the condition, which costs money. and cutting off access will mean undoing all of that progress overnight. worse, the virus is then more likely to mutate, which WILL affect us
English
@NoCRTinSchools @EndWokeness If someone advocating for continued funding can explain why the billions already provided hasn’t brought this under control I may change my opinion. But until then stop sending the money. Not interested in the just be a good person explanation.

UN says that if we stop giving billions of our tax dollars to Africa via USAID, 6.3 million patients with AIDS will die

@RandomCrapola @tafphorisms @BriannaWu I’m nonbinary, I also have a medical condition. I have a gender dysphoria diagnosis and I’m currently recovering from top surgery. I hope you realize that we are on the same side and that all trans people deserve access to gender affirming care when they need it
English
@tafphorisms @BriannaWu There's no such thing as nonbinary. I'm a transman, I have a medical condition. "nonbinary" is fantasyland.
English
What did you think would happen when every bored white teenager in America decided they were non-binary and the Democrats started writing sex out of law?
The public, not just Republicans, but democrats and independents have decided our entire movement is bullshit. It doesn’t help that WPATH has been lying to parents about the science.
We need major reforms in trans activism. I don’t know why so few people can see this.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

@BriannaWu The State Department website has replaced "LGBT" with "LGB". Wise up and stop making excuses for the GOP. They are not moving on - they’re insane sociopaths.
English
@LCurious64354 @tafphorisms @BriannaWu Nonbinary person here. We exp dysphoria too—social, physical, etc. Ive had two surgeries to correct my dysphoria, which I wouldnt have access to w/o having a gender dysphoria diagnosis & being recognized as trans by the medical establishment. Do you think I shouldn’t have access?
English
@dhurstell @tafphorisms @BriannaWu Bad argument.
Everything in the world is either potatoes or not potatoes. Binary.
Everyone is either blonde or not blonde. New binary.
When ppl are non-binary it clearly refers to the axis of gender. You’re introducing a new axis when it isn’t relevant.
English
@tafphorisms @BriannaWu People are either binary or non-binary right? And thus, binary.
There are expectations of that life as well... Such as the expectation to have blue hair, vote democratic, and wear, and be a communist.

@KarthikForTexas @beorge_gush1 There are plenty of things where, if you implement them without fixing anything first, the implementation is a disaster and it turns people off of the policy for decades. A public option with an entirely broken federal govt is a terrible idea!
English
@beorge_gush1 That’s the Dem trap though. We use all our political capital fixing things they broke instead of getting some generational achievements like a public option early on.
English
whatever dem wins in 2028, is going to have to pretty much just be a technocrat for their first couple years in office. they're going to have to pretty much spend every second of every day just repealing and fixing the entire federal government.

My entire scientific career I have been cautioning against climate doomerism. It’s dangerously unhealthy for young people and leads into apathy.
Humanity won on ozone depletion. Much of the world has been successful on acid rain and air pollution. Climate is winnable.
