Reposted by Celeste Irwin 🏳️⚧️The Karlie Chronicles @karliechronicles.bsky.social · 10/01/2026This is irresponsible. For people who can't leave, or those of us who are standing up for what's right, this encourages hopelessness and despair. Some people will give up on life permanently. And it will be because of things like this being said. It's not over by a long shot. 381

Celeste Irwin 🏳️⚧️ @celestefinally.bsky.social · 07/10/2025So SCOTUS apparently is going to say a state can ban care that is recommended by every major medical organization (gender-affirming care), but can't ban care that is condemned by every major medical organization (conversion therapy). They're legally mandating/protecting medical malpractice. 18528
