As more younger Americans identify as transgender, social conservatives are outraged. Is this some nefarious plot by the radical left to indoctrinate your kids… or perhaps a case of peer acceptance leading to more authenticity? My words in @metroweekly.bsky.social:

In 2022, Justine Lindsay made history as the NFL’s first openly transgender cheerleader. Three seasons later, the Carolina Panthers TopCat is stepping away from the squad to pursue pageantry & community outreach. More in my latest for @metroweekly.bsky.social ⬇️ www.metroweekly.com/2025/08/nfl-...

Underarmour only sells gift cards by the $500s! 😭 They were originally going to ask me to choose everything from the website all at once and I had to be like “… now let’s avoid that for second”
Max 🥰 (@maxmaaxmaaax.bsky.social)
In the wake of my game show victory, I think it’s important for you all to know that I will be wearing mostly underarmour clothing for the rest of my life now

Donald Trump campaigned on lowering the cost of IVF in his 2024 election bid. 7 months into his presidency, it appears that he’s all but abandoned this promise. Pete Buttigieg isn’t too happy about it. A fresh, late night @metroweekly.bsky.social read from me: www.metroweekly.com/2025/08/butt...

Thanks for the read and nice compliment! It seems fairly likely they won’t overturn based on my research but you can never trust this court, unfortunately. Hopefully that’s the way the chips fall.

I’m proud to be openly gay. I’ve made sure of it since I came out at age 15 and that includes when I recently competed on a game show. I didn’t realize what it meant to some people until I received some incredibly impactful responses after my appearance on Press Your Luck. ❤️
