They’re trying to make the First Amendment illegal.

So for someone like me who doesn’t produce hormones, do I just medically deteriorate, or will I be forced to have society force their sex on my body and identity again?

The power of state has been used to kill so many different people up to this point. However, it is a turning point when it is used to kill a white woman and a white man. It shouldn’t make a difference, but we all know that that did.

I stand in solidarity with all nurses today. Especially ICU nurses.

For all those so happy with our money-driven US healthcare system, do you realize that the business model is such that if you get sick your health insurance company actually WANTS you to just die? Their ONLY motivation is the short-term money profits as dictated by those invested in them.

"A fellow detainee says he witnessed Geraldo Lunas Campos being choked to death by guards at an ICE detention center in Texas on Jan. 3."

Upstate New York is beautiful, but there are in the winter where we are repeating the phrase, “we don’t have earthquakes, we don’t have hurricans, we don’t have alligators“ as we shovel the snow off our car.

ICE is what happens when you give mall cops federal funding. They are less law enforcement and more cruel washouts that peaked in high school football. News is that anyone speaking out against ICE gets put on a government watch list. However, one list you won’t see on is Epstein’s list.

Peace feels like unfamiliar and uncomfortable boredom at first after your system becomes wired for chaos.

I’m honored to be accepted into the American Academy of Neurology’s Transforming Leaders Program.

14 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- 100s current and ex members, leaders, & parents turn out protest at Girlguiding HQ in England over its new ban of trans girls. The group had previously announced itself “proudly trans inclusive.”

Has the idea and practice of academic medicine changed in recent years? My perspective on what it means for early-to-mid career academic neurologists is now online as an OpMed on Doximity. May resonate with other specialties. www.doximity.com/articles/1a1...

This administration is so unserious. Americans want lower health care costs and safe communities — not this Republican obsession with attacking trans people.

Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children. It’s all smoke and mirrors to allow the real predators to roam free.

Today, #IntersexDayofSolidarity, calls us to remember the ongoing struggles for bodily autonomy, dignity & justice—& find strength in solidarity. The next generation of intersex advocates is answering the call. We are thrilled to celebrate our Youth Cohort accomplishments. 🧵
