I posted about xer/her/zer xere:

Dr. Rachel Levine, a gender-nonconforming male who identifies as transgender and uses female pronouns, defended her policy of sending elderly patients back to their nursing homes after receiving treatment.

In Levine's post as Department of Health Secretary for Pennsylvania, Levine said "They contracted the virus in the facility. So it doesn't mean they were bringing it to the facility. The virus was already there."

However, for State Senator Doug Mastriano, this was not a good explanation for why COVID patients were returned to nursing homes to infect more people, and he called for Levine's resignation on May 11.

In May, Levine pulled her own mother out of a nursing home rather than leave her to be subjected to her own policies. "My mother requested and my sister and I as her children comply to move her to another location," Levine said at a press conference. "During the COVID-19 outbreak. My mother is 95 years old. She is very intelligent and more than competent to make her own decisions." This was not an option afforded to the 10,022 nursing home residents in the state who died from the virus.

Mastriano said "These failings are compounded by being complicit in the virus spreading through our elder care homes, triggered by unscientific and illogical directives, forcing them to readmit COVID-19 patients."

Mastriano believed that it was Levine's order that led to more COVID deaths in Pennsylvania nursing homes. "Let me state this clearly," he said, "this order by Secretary Levine is responsible for the deaths of approximately 2,500 of our citizens, and displays the gross incompetence of someone unfit for office. The bottom line is Secretary Levine has failed to protect our most vulnerable population."

That is some valuable insight from Jolly.

@jon-nyc that's probably similar to the "which finger is longest" test.

That's one ugly ass woman.

If you point the left toe a little toward the target you can make a slightly bigger turn through the ball and get more distance.

Rachel Levine is not up for the task of vaccine roll out in Pennsylvania and that is all that matters. Normally a person’s job would be on the line for that.

You can identify yourself as whatever you please, but God gives you the pelvis you have.
