I'm glad to see the Dept of Ag stand up for us but it isa pity that trans folks are such a political football.  At least it seems we have a team in the game for now.

 

Hugs,

It is looking more and more like we are not the real targets any more, we are just symbols of the meanie who "cheated" the conservative's "President" out of his kingdom.  The problem is that we are flesh and blood humans IRL.  They consider us to be fantasies constructed just to hit them and maul them by the progressives.  We are not real since dirt level holy books do not mention us and which they think condemns their closest guess to what we could be if we exist.  Twisted to the maximum.  I wish they were my fantasy and not my reality.

In that respect we are not the "real" targets.  They are just using us to attack the Dems.  And it works, which is the real reason they are doing it.  

We're certainly not a threat to the cis-world.

However, we have to live with the fallout in our everyday lives in this society.  Too many people willingly believe the propaganda.

One thing to being as OUT and active as I am, is that those are the very people I try to hit on and get some brains into them.  I am happy to say that I really have success in changing some people.

If the USDA action is a show of support, I don't want it. How is choosing to not feed hungry children a reasonable course of action. I think Noem is an awful politician, however I don't think it is an unreasonable to the situation. Hungry children shouldn't suffer for political stupidity.

 

The anti-trans legislation is morally reprehensible and repugnant. Political bullying using hungry children as pawns is equally immoral and repugnant.

 

I dislike both political parties. Trans rights are an important civil rights issue and requires laws preferably at the constitutional level but certainly at the federal level. Republicans must stop using transgender people and especially children for political propaganda.  Democrats must stop creating victims for the same reason.

 

There must be a better response than the one by the USDA

The politicians seem hell-bent on destroying America in their pursuit of power.

The Federal funds reimburse the schools for money they are required to spend by their state laws.  The schools submit proof of their expenditures to the Feds to get the repayment.  If the children's nutrition is cut, it is the state's doing on this one, not the Feds.  The reimbursed funds are of course considered state income windfall for other state expenditures.  It is one of those eyebrow raisers where states that want little Federal doings in their affairs still want legislative salaries covered by the money from people in other states paying Federal taxes.  In a sense, it becomes people in my state which has good protection of Trans people paying for their dirty deeds to me and mine.

      It certainly could be classed as dark humor.  Unfortunately the sentiments alone must hurt young trans folks.  Decency and reality doesn't seem to be in the GOP's vocabulary.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Good morning all,    It’s a frosty morning here the lawn looks silvery, and the uncovered spring flowers have icy edges on their leaves. The only flower bed I covered was my tulips. As nice as it is here during the day, our clear wind free nights allow the temperatures to drop into the mid twenties. Here in our growing zone it’s recommended that you not plant delicate plants until Mother’s Day. Central Indiana can have snow as late as the third week of May. The birds are active at the feeders, I’ve had my cup of yoghurt and morning meds. So I’ll sit here, drink coffee and watch the as the sunrise chases the frost from the yard.    @awkward-yet-sweet I could eat black eyed peas as a side for every meal. Boil them plain or with fatback. Served as a leftover, just add in a little Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies.  Make the best of your day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!

      What one piece of advice would you give to beginning transitioners or considering transition?

      Boredom is an emotional state that comes when a person has nothing to do, and is not interested in anything. To stop boredom, most people do something to occupy or amuse themselves. The first known use of the word boredom is in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens, written in 1852, but the saying to be a bore had been used to mean "to be tiresome or dull" since 1768. When referring to the mind, boredom is a bad state in which the person feels a deep lack of interest in what is going on around them, and where it is hard to focus.
