This one’s about my period coming back and Project 2025. Sources referenced in this episode: vote.gov votesaveamerica.org Hormone therapy for breast cancer (American Cancer Society) Dr. Jen Gunter on hormone therapy APA policy on gender-affirming care (American Psychological Association) WPATH FAQs (The World Association for Transgender Health) AAP policy statement on gender-affirming care Trevor Project Something kinda sad: when you go to the Trevor Project page, it lets you know that quickly pressing the ESC button three times will exit you out; Child marriage is still happening and here’s a study on it https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf (2025 Mandate for Leadership, The Conservative Promise) https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/race-mass-incarceration-and-disastrous-war-drugs (Brennan Center for Justice) https://ldi.upenn.edu/our-work/research-updates/the-war-on-drugs-as-structural-racism/ (The War on Drugs as Structural Racism) Using the latest available data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Violent Death Reporting System, Davis and colleagues (2021) found that between 2007 and 2018, nurses were 18 percent more likely to unalive themselves than the general population. Why down ballot voting is important: Majority of Arizonians support abortion (Prop 139 will protect abortion access up to viability), but judges in the state can still block it; Tarrant county Texas judge Tim O’Hare has lead efforts to cut nonprofit funding for at-risk children because they endorse LGBTQIA+ rights and recognize racial inequality as bad; He is, not unsurprisingly, backed by oil companies and evangelical christian organizations predominantly. He also continues to endorse white nationalism; All this to say, vote, vote local, talk about voting, make a plan to vote, put it on your calendar.
