The entire GOP authoritarian party attacks equal rights. Picking on trans kids is cowardly and disgusting. We all are owed the same equal rights and we all should have them.
These bans are unconstitutional, deny access to healthcare for a group of people based on their identity only, and should all be struck down.
@TonyStark (Confede)Red states are rebelling against the Reconstruction Amendments, which the Fourteenth Amendment is part of.
They better not dare to.
14th Amendment Section 1:
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
The Equal Protection Clause also formed the basis for SCOTUS's Obergefell v. Hodges decision legalizing same-sex marriages, along with many other decisions rejecting discrimination against, and bigotry towards, people belonging to various groups.

Are you a game developer who isn't a professional, and/or do you develop games mainly for fun?
Or are you a player who enjoys to see games that done as their creator think they should be, rather than what sells best?
Hooray - I added a new magazine icon for science fiction - this photorealistic icon for an science fiction online community will last until we get tired of it or find something better. Also included: runner-ups from Midjourney. They each have something to offer but I thought the winner felt most inclusive....
We have a couple open spots still at ComeUnity Roots Garden, and we're open to everyone regardless of age, experience, or ability - this is a place to learn and grow (lol) with a community model - we have a few individual plots, but most of the garden is full of shared beds.
Come join us! The honeyberries are ripe in our food forest already ;)
My favorite part of this #RedditMigration is how the name #Lemmy reminds me of the classic #videogame#Lemmings. There are two interesting parallels. On the one hand, Lemmings have the essentials of what a game needs: great balance between challenge and fun. The current scream of #socialnetworks goes in the same direction of returning to the essentials. On the other hand, in Lemmings we play as a #community. No community, it's #gameover.
@analgesicsleep Oooh, I haven't seen an episode of Inspector Spactime in ages! Which Inspector was this again? Oh wait, it's widescreen, it must be one of the movies :D
It's Talk Tuesday time over in @python#community . Head over and submit your favorite #python related conference talk and let us know what made it great.
#cooperation like #community is a feel-good word, but communities and individuals cooperate to do nasty as well as nice things. The important scientific discovery is that human sociality and institutional workarounds like norms and altruistic punishment enable us to cooperate with strangers. Harvard anthropologist Joe Henrich's "The Secret of Our Success" is a good and readable summary of evidence.

Spare a thought for Suleman Dawood, the 19 y/o scifi fan currently missing on the OceanGate Expeditions vessel
I was thinking snarky things about 'rich people and their subs' when I read about this missing sub. This kid's bio got to me:...
