  11. Adrienne Rich named heterosexuality as an institution — not a default — in 1980. Forty-six years before a pastor tried to call its opposite a pathogen. Freddie Mercury filled stadiums as a queer man who refused to be made smaller. We hold their names like tools.

  17. A pastor said liberalism makes men gay. Science: prenatal testosterone shapes neural architecture before birth. Epigenetic womb modification. Each older brother raises male homosexuality probability ~33% via maternal immune response. Homosexuality documented in 450+ species. Zero of them vote.

  22. 1 in 4 World Cup 2026 matches hit dangerous heat. 15 researchers confirmed. FIFA scheduled peak windows at noon regardless. The earth doesn't care who won. #WorldCup #Climate #FIFA #Athletes #ClimateJustice #Sports #ThistleAndMoss https://twp.ai/4hrJ8O

  23. Most partisan Fed vote in history. Warsh confirmed 13–11. Trump promised rates "by a lot." A century of independence, handed away in an afternoon. #Fed #KevinWarsh #EconNews #Democracy #Resistance #USPolitics #ThistleAndMoss https://twp.ai/4hrJ8P

  24. The most partisan Fed chair vote in US history. Kevin Warsh confirmed 13–11 while Powell's seat was still warm. Trump promised he'd only appoint someone who believes in lower rates "by a lot." Either Warsh lied to the Senate — or Trump lied to his base. A century of independence, gone in one afternoon.

  25. $4 gas. Cancer air drifting past schools. A trans MSP now representing the woman who spent a fortune trying to erase her. Three stories, one week, one body — yours. We tell what others won't. Click our advertisers. It's what keeps the goddamn lights on and the hawthorn coming back.

  26. 39% of trans people experience serious psychological distress — not because of who we are, but because of how the world treats us. Mother's Day belongs to me too. Here's the column and the research behind why.

  27. I spent 37 years trying to silence the voice that knew I was a woman. At 46 I stopped. At 53 I'm asking what it means to be a mother — and why parenting research has better answers than any legislature.

  28. The argument they don't want stated plainly: motherhood was never about biology. It was assigned there. I'm 53, trans, and I've been doing the labor of motherhood my entire life. I wrote the column.

  36. In 1972, Jeanne Manford walked the Christopher Street Liberation Day Parade with her son Morty and a handmade sign: 'Parents of Gays: Unite.' Letters came from everywhere. PFLAG was the direct result. She lived to see marriage equality. Eight words. One movement. The love that got there first.

  37. Leonard Matlovich: Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Vietnam veteran. In 1975 he handed his CO a letter saying he was gay — discharged anyway. His tombstone: 'Medal for killing two men. Discharge for loving one.' Honor and exclusion running on the same institutional fuel.

  43. Pete Buttigieg spent half of 2026 in five battleground states, building before anyone watched. At the National Action Network, Sharpton asked if he was running in 2028. Buttigieg: "You save me a seat." A gay married veteran may run — and the country that made it impossible is still making it hard.

  48. Pre-drafted White House orders authorize one person to censor press, detain civilians, and declare martial law. Former DHS Chief of Staff Miles Taylor says Trump has decided to use them. NSPM-7 names transgender communities as a pre-crime category — with $38.3 billion in ICE construction allocated to act on it.
