Hi y'all. Please read my first pinned post.

Gen X, native Texan here. I'm a magna cum laude graduate of the Univ. of Houston-Downtown in Communications, a one-time corporate America lackey and former Marine Corps journalist & photographer.

I'm a small business owner, amateur poliwonk, lover of bicycles (GRAVEL!), writer, music maker and watercolor&sketching n00b. Oh, and I'm transgender... an enby to be specific. I'm also lucky enough to be married to a pretty wonderful person. She gets me.

So the U.S. “advises U.S. citizens overseas to exercise increased caution.” due to terrorist-organization inspired threats. Sec of State Blinken said in a statement, “people in the LGBTQ+ community continue to face insidious forms of stigma and discrimination."

Bitch, you gotta be kiddin’ me. There are currently 515 anti- bills in U.S. states right now. Facing insidious forms of stigma and discrimination?

THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!

In a bill was passed to end child marriage and raise the min. age to marry to 18.

The bill passed the Senate unanimously and in the House it passed 192 to 174.

ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY FOUR!!! voted to sustain child marriage! WTF? And they say they need to protect kids from trans people!

One GOP representative argued this would restrict the freedom of those who are of “a ripe and fertile age”.
This is the modern day republican party folks.
