I think the most “adult who was in a gifted and talented program as a kid” thing I could have done to myself was become an author. Just giving myself endless homework and a need for people to be proud of me forever.

Every now and then I see myself referred to as an "AI Denier" and I want to be clear I acknowledge "AI" exists, it's just I think it's a massive energy drain, created from theft, implemented poorly for inappropriate tasks by loathsome tech executives who get hard at the idea of the rest of us dying

it's two things, to me: 1) trans rights matter because trans people matter and deserve rights, not just because failing to stand for trans rights is a bellwether for inauthentic progressivism more broadly 2) if you can't be trusted on trans rights you can't be trusted on anything

It isn't your business how someone is or isn't transitioned. It isn't your business how or if they access medical care, and what medical care they access. Doctors and patients should make medical decisions, not politicians or voters.

I have known many trans kids (and cis kids who needed procedures that would fall under "gender-affirming care"). None of them have suffered harmful consequences for getting the care they needed. The harmful consequence for having that care denied is frequently death.

Understand that there is a step between "Many good things in the world are empirically and objectively unraveling" and "I must be miserable every day" that you have simply locked into position and are skipping without conscious thought. There are so many other choices one can make at that step.
