My top 3 biggest pet peeves when it comes to research, writing and journalism. This stuff will drive you crazy.
The James Younger trans case is about a 7 year old boy who is caught up in the custody battle between his mother, Anne Georgulas and his father Jeff Younger. His parents have been appearing in family court trying to decide if his mother, who wants to affirm his possible transgender identity will have more custody over him, or if his father who wants to 'watch and wait', will have more power over his son's future.. This story has a lot going on it.

“You were the only woman up there with a lot of older white men". This is what the CBS news anchor had to say to Elizabeth Holmes, the now notorious ex-CEO of Theranos, a supposed biotech empire built on promises and the push of identity politics.
