A reminder that voting in America is not a car that takes you to you final destination, it is a bus that takes you closer to where you want to go. James Talarico might be trying to throw trans kids under the bus, but Ken Paxton is driving it, stopping, and backing up over the kids. Twice.
I’m a Texan trans kid who almost died because of Ken Paxton. The world should know what he’s done.
This was very difficult for me to write, but given what's at stake, I cannot bear to stay silent about what I went through at Paxton's hands.
He must not be rewarded for what he's done to trans kids.

Regardless of Talarico’s recent statements on trans people, Paxton cannot be rewarded for the extreme suffering he’s inflicted on me and tens of thousands of Texan trans kids.

This is an amazing video.
On its third attempt tonight, Marblehead Town Meeting approved an “MBTA Communities–compliant” district largely centered on the 125-year-old Tedesco Country Club, meeting 3A requirements on paper while all but assuring no new housing would be built.
This comment says it all.

A few have suggested that some aspects of this mission--joy, international teamwork, diversity--are being played up to stick it to the hateful attitude of the administration. But I don't think it's that. I think it's just that those things are essential to and inseparable from a mission like this.

Happy polio vaccine announcement anniversary. "There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?" remains one of the hardest remarks of all time. Kind of quote every child should be taught
