CBS News Stop using the dangerous euphemism "gender affirming care." The Supreme Court decision correctly refers to it as "sex transition treatments for minors." Continuing to use the nice-sounding euphemism puts more children in harm's way.

I am already looking forward to the Lyle Goldstein take on the decision for a sac bunt by _JP Crawford_ of all people in the 3rd inning of a scoreless game that…wait for it…sparked a 5 run outburst. So, bunting works, right?
