The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
You know it’s getting progressive in there when school board members are organizing with activists in secret Facebook groups to create enemies lists and activists are openly calling for the silencing of opponents and firing of teachers.
This particular dummy just decided to martyr himself

Does anyone else know what "DMV" means in this context?

DC-Maryland-Virginia, increasingly the only place in the US that actually matters.

Ah, Federal employees and contractors land.
Edit:
If its the only place that matters in the US, shouldn't we be more familiar with your newly invented acronyms?

A gay psychologist who worked at the NHS’s only gender transition clinic for children spoke of his fears that the clinic was running “conversion therapy for gay kids”.
Dr Matt Bristow said he feared the Tavistock and Portman NHS trust was ignoring the possibility that boys and girls who said they wanted to change sex might simply be gay.
Bristow’s claim has emerged in witness statements for Sonia Appleby, a psychotherapist responsible for safeguarding children at the gender identity clinic, who is suing the trust.
She told an employment tribunal last week she was “vilified” for raising concerns about the safety of children undergoing treatment, which included the clinic referring children as young as 12 for puberty blocking drugs.

I can see where this could be argued as anti-trans, but it never occurred to me these treatments could be viewed as "a boy who likes boys being medically transitioned to a girl who likes boys is 'transing the gay away' ".

This is what they do in Iran. You can be trans but you can't be gay.
So, what did the tribunal find? Were they transitioning gay kids or not?
How on earth would we know? Self reporting only seems to be seen as valid if it goes a particular direction.
To be fair, Tavistock is a special case… but it is also at the forefront of the debate and recently lost a major lawsuit over medically transitioning people under 16.

Honest questions, as I just can't figure this out and I want to understand. A WNBA player has come out as non-binary and trans. Can one be non-binary and trans? Isn't being trans selecting a binary status?
What is a trans male doing playing in a league for women?

Wikipedia wrote:
Non-binary (also spelled nonbinary) or genderqueer is an umbrella term for gender identities that are neither male nor female—identities that are outside the gender binary.[1][2] Non-binary identities fall under the transgender umbrella, since non-binary people typically identify with a gender that is different from their assigned sex,[2] though some non-binary individuals do not consider themselves transgender.
Non-binary people may identify as having two or more genders (being bigender or trigender);[5][6] having no gender (agender, nongendered, genderless, genderfree); moving between genders or having a fluctuating gender identity (genderfluid)

Enjoying broad support from association management, fans, and fellow players, apparently.
