    The court of appeals upheld a trial court decision in the Friday order, ruling in favor of LGBTQ+ advocates and families in two related Texas lawsuits asking a state court to block the agency from investigating parents who provide their children with gender-affirming care.

    In case anyone else was confused by the blurb/headline.

      I love how they tried to sue hospitals in WA for patient records. Not sure how they expected that battle to play out.

    Texas is the dumbest place on the North American continent. The humans aren’t biologically inferior, I am not making some kind of ableist insult, these fuckers actually choose consciously and willingly over and over again to be hateful worthless bigots which really hurts my brain to think about sometimes.
