Today, I resigned as Vice Chair of the ODP Pride Caucus. The state party expects us to be a sales team, censoring our voices when we beg candidates not to trade on trans lives. I am still a Democrat, but I will not value party approval over true, defiant advocacy. Full text below. 👇
Part 1 of an open letter of resignation by Arienne Childrey, stepping down as Vice Chair and member of the Ohio Democratic Party (ODP) Pride Caucus. She states that party leadership treats the caucus as a recruitment and sales team rather than a representative body. She cites an incident where the ODP censored and denied permission for the caucus to post a letter by two trans leaders addressing harmful comments made by Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton. The State Party Chair reportedly called the letter an "unwelcome distraction," which Childrey notes demonstrates how little party leadership values the voices and dignity of LGBTQ+ Democrats.
Since that decision, every Caucus plan, every potential post, and every path forward has been filtered through a lens of strict compliance and ODP approval. That may very well be the party's rule, but following those rules right now is a dereliction of our duty to the LGBTQ+ community.

For me, any rule that silences advocacy for the trans community during this time is an unjust rule, and I see no obligation to follow it. In alignment with the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his Letter from Birmingham Jail:

“One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.”

We are living in incredibly dangerous times for the trans community. We are in an era where the GOP has so thoroughly weaponized trans lives that even some formerly self-professing allies within our own party have fallen prey to the rhetoric. Looking at the national trend towards Democratic anti-trans triangulation, as well as our own internal conversations, it is clear to me that this shift is much more than a simple coincidence.

We have to speak up—loudly, strongly, and unapologetically—or I fear what our 2028 choices may look like. The ODP would like everyone to believe they are a "big tent" party. However, their successful efforts to silence even the Pride Caucus—even in cases where we are simply begging our candidates not to trade on our lives for perceived electoral advantage—has proven otherwise. The tent hasn't gotten any bigger; it has simply shifted, leaving many trans individuals, progressives, and allies out in the rain.

I will continue to advocate, organize, and fight for our community with everything I have. But I can no longer compromise my own moral principles by remaining part of a caucus that appears more interested in party approval than in true, defiant advocacy.

Sincerely,
Arienne Childrey

consumer reports screenshot: 
That one-two punch of higher top speeds and growing popularity has resulted in an explosion of electric scooter-related injuries. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, there were roughly 10,500 e-scooter injuries in 2017. By 2024, that number grew to nearly 80,000.

But despite e-scooter use being more common in cities, where bike and car traffic tends to be heavier, multiple peer-reviewed studies have also found that about [HIGHLIGHTED TEXT] 80 to 90 percent of e-scooter injuries are tied to single-vehicle incidents rather than traffic crashes. In other words, the bulk of e-scooter accidents don't involve any other vehicles. [END HIGHLIGHT]

Because e-scooter accidents are increasingly common, data on the injury severity is more widely available. It paints a worrisome picture. An analysis of trauma data for England and Wales published in Scientific Reports in 2026 found that electric scooter riders are more likely than motorcycle riders to suffer a traumatic brain injury in an accident. In that study, low bike helmet use and a standing riding posture on electric scooters were partly to blame.

NEW: A record 29% cars sold globally this year will be electric Meanwhile... China is exporting more E.V.s than the U.S. exports cars of any kind Latest w/ @bradplumer.bsky.social → www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
A stacked area chart of global car sales by drivetrain from 2000 to 2026, in which electric vehicles grow from near zero to over a quarter of the market. Hybrid vehicles make up about another tenth of sales by 2026. And gas and diesel vehicle sales, in absolute numbers, will reach their lowest levels since the early 2000s this year.A chart that shows Chinese passenger electric vehicle (including plug-in hybrid) exports shooting up from nearly zero in January 2018 to  over over 9 million by June 2026. Chinese E.V. export values jump particularly quickly after the Strait of Hormuz closure. A second line plots all U.S. passenger vehicle exports, which remain fairly steady between 3 and 6 million across the same time period.

It's obviously infuriating when this happens but I take a little issue with the "literacy crisis" framing of this topic because I kind of believe at most points in history, people were a bunch of dipshits who wouldn't change their mind. We're just exposed to more of them now.
Im annoyed with the literacy crisis because im finding that sometimes you can explain something to someone in heavy detail and provide them with reference material and all that will do is make them angrier because they cant comprehend what they were told or read what they were provided.

Title: My confidence in my understanding of the scientific theory. 

A diagram where the confidence is marked in red on an otherwise white figure


Panel 1
"Before I got a book about it."
The figure is red up to about his stomach

Panel 2
"While I was reading the book."
The figure is reading a book. He is red up to his forehead.

Panel 3
"When I had finished the book." 
The red level has dropped  to around his mouth

Panel 4
"One week later."
Now it is at his chest.

Panel 5
"When I try to explain it to somebody." 
The level is back at stomach level.

Panel 6
"When they ask a follow-up question."
The red is so low we can barely see it.
