AND YET!

Pope Leo is letting American bishops entirely ban trans healthcare for both minors and adults in all Catholic-owned hospitals and clinics, and stop coverage for trans healthcare through Catholic-affiliated health insurance plans!!

People are having surgeries, for which they were on waitlists for years, suddenly cancelled. Hormones no longer covered, their clinicians no longer able to prescribe them. Considering in some states Catholic-owned healthcare organizations make up to a third of the market, as it were, this is a HUGE issue.

‘It’s a Nightmare’: The Human Toll of the Catholic Church’s Trans Healthcare Ban

Missing hormones. Canceled surgeries. Bureaucratic denials. Late last year the Catholic Church banned all trans healthcare across its sprawl

This has been happening since November of last year, when this vote took place, but no one is talking about it. The rehabilitation of the image of the papacy through Pope Leo is killing me, it’s still the goddamn Catholic Church. You do not gotta hand it to them.

Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.

The actor, 86, will be most remembered on this website for the "Chuck Norris Facts" memes of hyper-exaggerated competence.

Outside of movies and memes, Norris was a longtime conservative activist, pushing back against LGBT inclusion, fearmongering about peaceful Muslims spreading "sharia law", arguing against states teaching evolution in schools, feeding the "birther" conspiracy that Obama was not a US Citizen, and supporting Donald Trump.

I am still trying to formulate my thoughts after what happened in Vermont a few towns over from me on Wednesday.

If you're unaware, on Wednesday, ICE agents surrounded a house near an elementary school without a warrant and the community took action. Our contact chain to get people to the scene worked. Really well. Protestors formed a human chain, blocking ICE from the house and getting a toddler to a safe location. Protestors held for six hours straight, requesting that a warrant be produced, until our city and state police assisted ICE by teargassing and brutalizing protestors and eventually entering the home. They arrested protestors and three immigrants. NONE were the individual ICE had a warrant for, he wasn't even in the house. The people taken into custody were here seeking legal asylum.

Vermont is one of the whitest states in the country and has some of the lowest % of immigrants. Just throwing that out there for reasons...

I don't know what's going to happen over the next few days. I'm trying to formulate my anger at what happened and the pride i feel for how effective our community response was together. Just know that VT is small, but takes this shit so seriously. They don't call us the Brave Little State for nothing. We threw JD Vance out in like a day in 2025. We should be boiling sap right now. But we have time for this too.

"We owe no allegiance, we bow to no throne, Our ruler is law and the law is our own; Our leaders themselves are our own fellow-men, Who can handle the sword, or the scythe, or the pen." - The Song of the Vermonters, 1779.

The fact that these stories always end with "and then the cops came and assaulted the protesters because all that talk about how much cops hate ICE was always bullshit." Even though ICE refused for six hours to produce a warrant, meaning the only lawful reason for the police to be there should have been to tell them to disperse.

Police departments in blue cities and states are literally red state armies of occupation. They have been for several decades, but most blues still refuse to wake up to it.

[teacuptemp]

the take that the writers “ruined” cooper’s character because he’s actually driven by love and devotion instead of revenge and spite is so boring to me

a man becoming warped and twisted while having a noble motivation is so much more delicious than betrayal turning him into a monster

because now coop will have to grapple with what he let himself turn into BECAUSE of that love. just like what barb let herself be complicit in for the exact same reason

was it worth it? is he capable of being who his family loved anymore? can they forgive him? can he forgive himself?

this storyline offers SO MUCH MORE opportunity for deep character exploration and i cant wait

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus

Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer. From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations, the MRFF told me Monday night. The MRFF is keeping the complainants anonymous to prevent retribution by the Defense Department. The Pentagon did not immediately respond to my request for comment. One complainant identified themselves as a non-commissioned officer (NCO) in a unit currently outside the Iran combat zone but in Ready-Support status, deployable at any time. The NCO said they were Christian and emailed the MRFF on behalf of 15 troops, including at least 11 Christians, one Muslim, and one Jew. (Full email printed below.) The NCO wrote to the MRFF that their commander “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ.” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has enshrined evangelical Christianity at the uppermost levels of the U.S. military, airing monthly prayer meetings throughout the Pentagon. Last year, the Pentagon confirmed to me that Hegseth attends a weekly White House Bible study. It’s led by a preacher who says God commands America to support Israel.

If you’re a soldier and your commanding officer tells you that they are purposefully trying to cause Armageddon, you should ignore all of their orders and desert.
