I would appreciate it if my friends would help amplify this. I'm so genuinely hurt by this.

In case it wasn't clear, even when I'm pushing back on people who diminish the hate and harassment I've faced, do not EVER give them what I've faced.

I don't wish it on anyone.

Director of Colony Farm states that 3x child killer Schoenborn is still a significant risk to public safety and should remain in custody for at least another 12 months BUT terms of up to 28 days leave into the community remain. Crown agrees & the killer's lawyer is not opposing.

I am now in. Seems 3x child killer Schoenborn has changed his name and does not want the new name known. This new name will not be used in this hearing and possibly not known in the future pending ruling by the BC Review Board.

This is how I approach the appropriate capital gains tax rate as well. If we're going to tax capital income, we should tax it the same through all channels: dividends, capital gains, interest. Divs and CGs have been misaligned. Moving up the inclusion rate ~realigns them.

Belarus has hit a new low. The definition of pornography under Belarusian law now includes depictions of same-sex relationships as well as transgender people.

Belarus should annul these despicable amendments and stop cynically targeting LGBT people.

Out of 3499 patients audited by the Cass Review, only 10 detransitioned and they only spoke to 2 to find out why. Once again, detransition is proven to be incredibly rare.

That's a detransition rate of 0.2% which is in line with several studies.

The same people who said women were hysterical for warning that Roe v. Wade could be overturned are the same people now saying we're being alarmist about a Trump-enacted national abortion ban.

The Cass Review couldn't be bothered to talk to actual trans people so they used AI generated images to stand in for trans people.

1. Two years ago, Hillary Cass met with DeSantis picks and collaborated on a trans care ban in Florida.

Now her review targets trans people in England.

It is filled with flawed claims over evidence, toys, and social transition.

Subscribe to support my journalism. Lets dig in.

Media coverage of Cass Report is:

1. ignoring Review's exclusion of nearly all all international medical studies built up over decades (50-100) which clearly show that interventions benefit trans kids.

Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke's rejection of BC's $250m policing offer reinforces that she's hell-bent on inflicting the maximum possible political damage to the BC NDP, financial consequences for her city be damned.

On Fox News, fifth place swimming finisher Riley Gaines calls three-time national championship coach Dawn Staley 'entirely incompetent or a sellout' for saying that trans women should be allowed to play women's sports:
