“‘We are all sisters and siblings under the blue sky, and we should all have equal opportunities to play the sports we choose, the sports we love.’”
“‘I have come to understand that the science is far more complex than I thought, and there are clearly more educated experts than I who are creating policy to ensure that elite sports are both fair and inclusive of all women‘”

One of the most persistent and pernicious libels: "BUUUUT Israel created Hamas!!!”
Every time I hear folks say that as though they have just produced a work of triumphant genius, my soul withers.

No one should be able to dictate women's health choices, but it's especially disgusting that Paxton is calling the shots.

@Karenawokekaren Never heard of that publication, but that opinion piece is pure trash.
Police say a woman has died after Edmonton officers used a stun gun then shot her while conducting a wellness check.
Police are the wrong people to conduct wellness checks.
They have the wrong training, the wrong culture and the wrong tools.
