#SCOTUS will hear a #FirstAmendment challenge to a #Colorado #law banning professional #counseling services engaged in #ConversionTherapy intended to change a minor’s #gender identity or #sexual orientation.

>20 states have similar laws, which are supported by leading #medical groups. Kaley Chiles, a licensed counselor, challenged the constitutionality of the Colorado law in federal court, saying it violated her rights to free speech & the free exercise of #religion.

The Supreme Court has turned down earlier cases challenging state laws regulating conversion therapy, over the dissents of some conservative justices.

At the direction of #Trump, the #HHS & its agencies are purging websites of info & data on a broad array of topics—from #adolescent #health to #LGBTQ+ rights to #HIV, even #flu shots.

Several pages from the #CDC w/references to LGBTQ+ health are no longer available. A page from the HHS Office for #CivilRights outlining LGBTQ+ rights in #healthcare was also gone Fri. The site of the #NIH's Office for #Sexual & #Gender #Minority #Research Office disappeared.

Edit to add link. Apologies for popping into the timeline so frequently. There's a lot going on, and reporting on it is light. (But how many stories were there about Bezo's RealDoll's visible bra? So fucking many.)

In 2022 after R v. W was overturned, Biden directed that reproductiverights.gov be created. It had information about #abortion rights, access to breast and cervical #cancer screenings, and other #sexual, #prenatal, and #preventive #healthcare.

The site went black at the same time as Herr Combover started his circus act with the #ExecutiveOrders. There is no replacement planned.

Y'all thought I were kidding when I said #maga hates #women. I have been working for reproductive rights since the 80s, starting as a clinic escort when "christians" were beating women with sticks trying to get into clinics. I got my bioethics Phd focused on women's health. I guaran-gawddamn-tee you, these men see women as nothing more than chattel, fleshlights & breeders.

#Pornhub [is visited] more frequently than Twitter, Wikipedia, or Netflix. Globally this site has almost as many visits as Amazon”

“While #porn and the consumption of it may still linger at the margins of our #public spaces, those margins have shifted. Porn has changed. And if we do not pay attention to what this means for our #relationships, our #social and #legal systems, and our #sexual norms and practices, it will #change us”

Continued thread

The 1 thing that is not arbitrary about the choice of an #enemy is that it must #exploit #vulnerabilities. The #Trump ads projected a fantasy of #KamalaHarris allowing millions of sex-changed foreigners to take jobs from Americans. This touches, all at once, on #gender, #economic, & #sexual vulnerability. We are unprotected & impoverished & will be replaced by something alien. And this is all orchestrated by a shadowy enemy in the background—in this case, a woman of color who knows how to laugh.

Russian disinfo groups are involved in a disinfo campaign against #Democratic VP candidate Tim Walz, U.S. intel. reported.

This included a video of a man pretending to be one of Walz's former students and accusing him of #sexual misconduct during his time as a teacher.

1) AIs are taking over the "search" experience.

2) AIs are expen$ive. Corporate tools with #pornocalypse designed in.

3) AI #search is vanishing #internet #porn. Online #adult stuff will still exist, but undiscoverable, unsearchable, unmonetizable, #shadowbanned everywhere. SUPER marginalized.

4) They've already showed us: to corporate #AI, porn includes #gay stuff, #trans existence, #sex education, #sexual #health, anything #queer or #kinky.
