The Supreme Court just made it easier for states to exclude trans kids from sports. This isn’t about fairness. It’s about telling vulnerable children they don’t belong. We know exclusion harms health. I’m angry. Protect trans kids.

Planted our garden with the kids last week— one of my favorite family traditions. Every year they get so much joy from watching food grow, checking for new berries, and grabbing snacks straight from the yard. These kids will happily eat raw kale off the plant and pick green beans like treasure!

California’s new plastic recycling rules are creating pushback from both environmental advocates and plastic producers. This CalMatters piece is worth reading because it gets at something bigger than recycling: calmatters.org/environment/...

We knew this administration was coming after LGBTQ+ individuals and families, so we proactively ensured we had all the legal paperwork in place to protect our rights as parents to our children — including having the non-bio parent adopt our kids.

Trump promised “never again” but tore up the Iran nuclear deal and then bombed Iran’s nuclear sites. His actions have made the world less safe and pushed us closer to conflict. Words don’t match the reality he’s created.

Saw @heightenedscrutinydoc.com at @framelinefestival.bsky.social last night. Appalling to see courts making decisions in cases attacking trans children based on media narratives, not facts or science. This film is urgent—watch it, share it, and keep fighting.

SCOTUS upholds a ban on gender-affirming care as the CDC backs lenacapavir—an HIV prevention breakthrough priced out of reach. Different issues, same fight: everyone deserves access to life-saving, evidence-based care. Let science lead, not politics.

The CDC approved lenacapavir for HIV prevention—a major milestone. But approval isn’t access. It’s still priced out of reach for many. Join advocates pushing for affordable, equitable care: contact your reps, speak out, demand action. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

HIV prevention drug hailed as a 'breakthrough' gets FDA approval

A drug called lenacapavir, administered in two injections a year, offers protection from HIV comparable to daily pills. One looming question: Will it be affordable for lower resource countries?

Erin Mullin @erinmullin.bsky.social · 18/06/2025

The Supreme Court’s decision in US v. Skrmetti is devastating. Letting Tennessee’s ban stand endangers trans youth and opens the door to broader attacks on trans rights—sports, bathrooms, even adult care. This fight is far from over. Stand up, speak out, and protect trans lives.

I collect hobbies—accidentally. Most fall into two camps: outside and moving my body or inside doing something cozy and tedious with my hands. Both give me a break from the swirl of work and parenting. Some are on pause, some are all-in. Here’s where I’m at lately:

The GOP budget plan hands massive tax breaks to the wealthy while gutting healthcare, food aid, and housing for working families. Those making under $50K could lose $8K–$15K in support, while the richest get huge giveaways. It’s a wealth transfer from struggling Americans to the ultra-rich.

Trump and Vance’s attack on Zelenskyy is disgraceful and a betrayal of democratic values. Undermining Ukraine only empowers Putin and weakens U.S. leadership. We must stand with Ukraine against tyranny and reject this dangerous rhetoric that threatens global security and our allies.
