   For the record:

   To hell with this, every cursed word of it. I support my students, as they are, their whole selves. Not limited to but most definitely including trans students.

   I know I’m not alone. We teachers across the US are going to fight like hell for our students — right, fellow teachers? https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:m65ifh7vn5zdgs7izcmht4gy/post/3lgw3rudpik22

     @inthehands I am relieved that I live in Arlington county, where there's very little chance there will be any advance knuckling under to this and terrified that we're in a state where the executive branch is run by a republican governor, lt gov, and ag.

     It seems to me the bet the Trump admin is making - to the extent they do any planning - is that enough folks will be willing to just toss our trans brethren under the bus if it becomes costly enough. I wish i was sure it was a bad bet.
