NBC News is really something. In a sea of bad media, they stand out as exceptionally terrible. Whether mad about states acknowledging basic biology, or glossing over the arrest of a journalist, they've taken media bias to the next level.

This gem is just the latest in a long line of WTF stories from this media outlet:

They write:

A study published last month in Socius, an open-access journal of the American Sociological Association, found that aunts play a crucial role in supporting their young relatives who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer and transgender, including by preventing them from experiencing homelessness if their parents are less supportive. 

The paper, “Aunties, Aunts, and Tías: The Forgotten Othermother Supporting and Housing LGBTQ Youth,” is the first research on LGBTQ youth and aunthood and is part of a larger two-year longitudinal study on LGBTQ youth, support from family members who aren’t parents and housing stability.

This is so, so tiresome. "Othermother" is not a thing.

Yikes.

Sure sounds like parody, no?

Yes it is.

What? 'Nonbinary blankets' isn't hard hitting news for you?

Yes. The pronoun game and associated nonsense is not sustainable. It defies logic, reason, and science.

Give them time.

Couldn't have said it better ourselves.

Yep.

Look, while it's terrible some parents throw their kids out for being gay, most parents -- especially on the trans issue -- are trying to protect their kids from permanent, irreparable harm. This just encourages undermining those parents and dividing families.

It's insidious.

We laughed at this. Hard.

Yeah, what is that supposed to do, exactly?

Wheee.

Truer words were never spoken.

We have no idea.

Yes it is.

This is heartbreaking.

We're six hundred words into this article and we still don't know what this is.

Someone had to say it.
