Yeah, it's striking to see other progressive folks center their concerns with safety when we have an epidemic of unhoused folks. Their concerns are not without merit, however, it would have been great if they could have actually placed emphasis and effort into solving the underlying issue, rather than trying to simply get rid of their discomfort by shipping these folks out of their neighborhood. But, alas, the affliction of cognitive dissonance is non-partisan.

WTF? You have to be trolling. Some anti-androgens used as part of HRT may actually mask the symptoms of prostate cancer, that's actually more reason to get screened.

Exactly. She's not only shown up but has volunteered countless hours every year in pushing for legislation and actually organizing folks.

People who actually know her, can testify to that fact. Her gender identity had nothing to do with why she was elected to this position.
