The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what.

Hey Megyn Kelly, 14-year-old Eloise would like a word: “If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good… because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.” Sound up! 🔥🔊 1/2

I definitely plant lots of pots in the garden so I can move them around to spots where flowers are past their bloom. I just ordered Zinnia seeds which will go in 24 large pots for late summer color.

I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012. Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place. A thread.

Butker should step aside. Make his wife a sandwich. He should realize his life really started when he became a husband and a father. He should give up his day job. He should realize he’s been told diabolical lies — his place is in the home.

The disinformation circulating about trans people is astounding. You would think there were thousands of college athletes changing genders based on the rhetoric. Truth is that there are about 10 trans athletes out of 510,000 athletes, says the NCAA That’s .000019%

Let me tell you a story – one of the more haunting I’ve seen in 20 years of journalism. It’s about greed, death and denial. It took two years to unravel one doctor’s myth, a hospital’s complicity in creating it, and a documented trail of suspicious deaths…🧵
