Idaho Seeks Emergency Order From SCOTUS Allowing Youth Health Care Ban

"Emergency" sure has a loose definition these days.  Of course, we are currently under 43 different declared federal emergencies.  Some of them date back to Carter, Clinton, and Bush.  

 

I propose these "lawmakers" get to volunteer in the South for the spring tornado season.  A working vacation.  They can find out what real emergencies look like.

Some place I was reading that they have less than 20 Trans Children in the whole darn state that would be affected by this.  SCOTUS will cost them about 2 million bucks on this one, are they going to get it from the kid's piggy banks??

For most people, a trans person would only be a curiosity if these politicians didn't keep bringing this stuff up.

They have to make a problem, where there is. no problem.

It's all meant as a distraction, b/c they have no accomplishments, no policies, no agenda to run on or be proud of, other than "we hate Joe Biden."

Honestly, even that would be enough if they could just focus on it and do a good job of that.  Lord knows that would not be a difficult task, they just don't seem to want to do it.

I can understand that they want to refer the matter to the Supreme Court in order to validate their ideology.  But what is the "emergency"?  There's no rush.  Nothing bad will happen if it takes a couple of years to wind its way there.

 

Maybe that's the problem: that nothing bad will happen.  Clearly they desperately want bad stuff to happen, and the sooner, the better.  The only rush is towards the bottom of the barrel.

The hate has no limits. I was reading about an act in Utah that they are calling a sovereignty law, and basically it says the state can do what it wants if they disagree with Federal law. I posted something on this in another thread. It may be illegal, but we are seeing some unusually awful polarized behavior with us as a big old target.

 

More tragically yet, I was just skimming some national articles and came across a story that transgender child was assaulted in an Oklahoma high school and then went on to die. See link: https://www.yahoo.com/news/oklahoma-transgender-student-dies-allegedly-125629309.html

 

This hate campaign has went to far. When and where will all of this stop? They forget we are human beings too.

They don't think so

Rest in power, Nex.

 

The whole Libs of Tik Tok inclusion in this makes the whole article suck even more.

      What a great moment @Vidanjali! It's always so cool knowing people are reading you in a way you want to be seen.

      It's also networking.  Sometimes jobs come along because someone knows someone else - these older people might know someone.  "Hey, Ashley," someone might say,"My nephew is looking for love. He likes tall women. Whatcha think? Can he call you?"   Don't discount their ability to match make.  It is about networking.

      He is simply doing to get more votes. He held a Trump for trans during his first run and found out the majority of his voters were against us so he simply followed the crowd.

      The sad part is I'm the third oldest member. One is in their 60's and the other is past 70's. I'm even older than the president lol. It's a younger crowd that's for sure. I like to come here to feel young again lol.

      Ashley, I think searching for relationships are a lot like searching for jobs, they tend to come along when you aren't actually looking.  Perhaps you could step back from actively searching, at least for a little while, and instead, concentrate on just being out and about as yourself.  Like Mae and Abby have already mentioned, just keep up your volunteering, but don't focus on a need to find someone.  Maybe, just maybe, changing your tactics will result in someone finding you.    I do wish only the best for you, and I hope someone comes along who connects with you.

      First off, you can't regret being honest. You may not be changing the relationship, but it sounds like it still exists!   As for meeting people, what about through the volunteering you're doing? Maybe you can do more of that and meet people. Let some relationships grow and if they blossom into something more than friendship, great! If not, you've got more friends!

      Hi Giz, welcome. There's so many different ways to be trans and you're so welcome here. I wish you luck in achieving your goal of being more androgynous. There's forums in here that might suit you and your goals. I look forward to hearing more from you. I go by he/they pronouns at the mo.

      Hello @JenniferB!  Was kind of in the same boat with this.  I spent massive amounts of energy over several decades to try to control my drinking and drug use.  Because I'm highly disciplined, I was ultimately successful.  I felt I could have gone on with controlled drinking for the rest of my life without problems, but it got to the point where I realized that it wasn't worth all the energy I was putting into it.  At that point I found surrender.  I got a sponsor, attended almost daily meetings for a year, worked the steps to the best of my ability, tried my best to socialize with people even though I am an introvert, I made a mess for myself at the meetings and felt a little rejected.  And then I continued on doing a little service work.   After a few months away from it, I'm in a good spot.  I accidentally ate one of my roommates edibles a couple months ago.  I have only smoked a half ounce of weed in the last 20 years.  After it kicked in, I realized that it was a marijuana high.  Then I noticed something miraculous.  I just told myself that there is nothing I can do about it and then got on with the business of the evening like I normally would.  It was like the high just ended right then and there.   Controlled drinking like I was doing was just very risky behavior and not worth the effort for me.  In any case, I'm very happy that I spent my life fighting it all instead of just giving into it.  I think that whatever you put into something, you eventually get back out.   Meetings are cool.  People generally get equal time to share.  Seeing people who are struggling reminds me of the way I was and why I want to remain sober.  And by being there, I have the potential of helping someone else.  The stuff I don't identify with I just do my best to not let bother me.  And if it gets bad there, I don't have to go back.  I can find another meeting or even just read the literature.  The literature helped me a lot.

      Happiness to me is when I reached a turning point in my life, that I stop worrying what others think about me, and start living my life.

      Very, very true.  The number of murders committed by strangers in 2022 was only about 10 percent, per the FBI.   Carolyn Marie

      Good afternoon everyone,   I often wondered why @April Marie and @Willowgot up so early in spite of being retired. Now that I have my own puppy as a house pet I get it. We haven't had dogs since before my oldest granddaughter was born 22 years ago this September. I've always had working hunting dogs, and it was important they became acclimated to the current weather conditions. While the kennels had large outdoor runways, they also had pet passes into the somewhat temperature controlled garage. Yes, they were allowed in the house but only for short periods of time. Fast forward to present time, and I'm potty training a puppy as well as crate training. The first night Parker Von Schwinegruber, slept from 10:30 until 05:30. Last night we went to bed and 10:30 and he started making noise at 05:00. Since I don't want to test his ability to hold his business, we got up and went outside. He took care of business and we went back to sleep. This time he had a dental chew bar and I filled his water bowl. We cat napped until 08:00 and then got up for the day taking him immediately outside. He took care of business, and we played fetch and tug of war with his now favorite puffball. We came in and I put him back in the crate positioned so he could see me cook breakfast. Did he NO HE WENT TO SLEEP! We ate breakfast, did the dishes, and finished off the pot of coffee I brewed at 08:00. Once he woke up we stared at one another for about 20 minutes, because he seemed content to be in the crate. I got up and we worked on some obedience training as well as getting into and out of the crate with permission. We don't want him to crash the gate or any doors we will be going through.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
