Luckily, this has no chance of being enacted, even if the R's have the majority, but the idea seems to be going mainstream on the right.  My apologies for the poor quality of the image; the screen shot didn't get the whole Tweet.

I do not think ANY bill that she has proposed has even gotten our of its first committee much less a floor vote.  You have to admit she is single minded about us.  I have a fantasy about her getting into a train wreck and needing a blood transfusion for which the only donor they can find is a Trans person.  I have a pick your ending script for that one.

I can't seem to help seeing her as congress's resident court jester and dancing clown. Or at least the latest one.

My gut feeling tells me she will either break the law and get impeached, or she will lose in the next election cycle. She has the intelligence of a gnat. 

 

 

She's been in office for two years, her constituents have seen who she is and what she's up to, and they just re-elected her.  They got what they wanted, and what they deserve.  Maybe they just want to poke the rest of us in the proverbial eye.

First off, the Republicans haven't achieved control of the House (yet). And they lost the Senate, so it doesn't seem to have a very good chance to pass there. Even if it did, President Biden would veto it, so what's the point?

This crap is one reason (I suspect fraud too, like usual) that the Red tsunami into a fizzle.  The people have every right to be mad at incumbents for the rising fuel prices, massive inflation, and the current state of things.  This election was supposed to be a guaranteed winner, but apparently the Republicans don't want to talk about the main issue and focus on fringe stuff instead.  Not surprised.

Regarding Taylor-Greene, sooner or later, her idiocy will catch up to her. She has wasted the position with a crazy agenda that rational humans will continue to reject. My gut feeling tells me she will either break the law and get impeached, or she will lose in the next election cycle. She has the intelligence of a gnat. 

 

I've gotta agree totally. She's a lunatic to put it mildly. But, saying she has the intelligence of a gnat is a grievous insult to gnats everywhere...🤣

She is simply a wack'a'doodle in a party that has unfortunately lost its way in a desperate attempt to follow the great orange wave into retirement.

Her "base" loves this stuff.  It doesn't have to make sense to them, they don't care about that as long as they can rant against the "Libtards".  

It makes them feel good about themselves - at least we're not like them !  /s

Part of me wants to see how (badly) all this turns out, and another part is glad that I won't be.

 

(I'm not saying I'm ancient, but I still get birthday greetings from dirt and "the hills".)

      Just like anything else that is new it's always the thing that people fear of. People are typically afraid of change. Even something as simple as new procedure at work or the population growing. Typically just have the mindset of it's not broken then don't fix it type of attitude. The world is progressing and they need to accept that or they will eventually be left behind. A good example after WW II women working in the workforce things didn't go well at all due to a lot of butting heads. There are still even people now that think women are only meant for housework and raising babies.

      I've actually seen a lot of people who at least tolerate the LGB and not the T. There's also some of the gay/lesbian population that, unfortunately, alienate trans people away from other parts of the community.   To me, the biggest block is probably the lack of formal exposure. If people aren't taught about LGBT they will, just like any other topic, come to misunderstandings and more. Besides, how can most LGBT people figure out that they are such if they don't know it exists? I know that, personally, I didn't realize I was a guy rather than just someone who wanted to be a guy until I was introduced to trans as a concept

      You're welcome. I wanted to post something new that I haven't posted yet.

      That's a lot of weight congratulations. I was almost about to become a K9 handler in the Air Force back in 2006 but I found out that once you get promoted to E7 you lose your dog. You can get it at E4 as long as they need them but it is usually E5. If you don't understand military jargon, I'll help you out. I didn't want to join the Marines because I actually like to be treated better. I was Security Forces and performed security, law enforcement and everything you could think of such as convoying, fire fights, search pit just to name some. It also helped that I had family that was Air Force and I went through Air Force Junior Reserves Officer Training Corps so I knew the basics of Air Force already. That's awesome that you have goals in life. I hope you get it.

      Not sure what category I'd call this—don't care—I like American music. Any American. Thanks, @Ashley0616

      @FelixThePickleManTrust me I know the feeling. I didn't have the guts to come out that young. It wasn't well known back then. I knew I felt completely wrong. I knew for sure my parents weren't going to help me so I hid it all. It hurt a lot to live a lie. I always pretended to be the female that I was dating. I prayed and cried every night. It's not easy because bullying has always been around and the teachers didn't really care about that stuff back then.    You can make it through this. I would like to help you out just like I have with previous members. It's going to be up to you if you would like it. It's not going to happen overnight I can promise you that. For every negative thing or comment it typically needs double the number for positive things to feel better about yourself. You unfortunately are living with your parents which they are getting used to you coming out too. Sometimes coming out you're going to lose a lot of support. I lost over 40 family members but I'm happier than what I was. I still look at the mirror and still have my issues which is typical because we know our own faults and short comings. You have to value yourself. There isn't going to be an easy life. We all face many obstacles and it's harder for the ones that have something else to deal with.   We aren't in the same boat as some people are in yachts, cruise ships, and so on. There are perks and cons to each one. The best thing is to find something that you are great at and focus on that while trying to improve on the little things. Some have rituals everyday such as a new Bible verse that is related to what you are going through or a poem there are many poems for everything.

      G'day @Vivelacors   Welcome to Transgender Pulse Forums, I hope you find this place as informative and helpful as I do.   Best wishes, stay positive, and safe,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Tonight we will split a thick cut ribeye steak grilled outside, along with fresh asparagus shoots, apple sauce, and fresh cucumber salad. The steak has already been seasoned, wrapped in butcher paper resting to room temperature. The cucumber salad is blended and resting in the refrigerator.   Tomorrow's dinner will be Chicken drumsticks (skin on) that are already marinating in Zesty Italian dressing. Tomorrow I will smoke the drumsticks with apple-wood smoke, before crisping them up on the grill. We'll also have grilling beans, and garlic mashed potatoes.   The outside kitchen is now open.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Clutching of pearls because people that don’t “align with society” party to excess is part of the problem, not a symptom of one. Cis-het folks are out there airing their sexuality, reveling in their debauchery, and displaying general anti-social behaviors all the time but aren’t reacted to in the same manner.   The most important T in this conversation is Time. As long as there is not a fascist, violent, crackdown on LGBTQ+ people, our exposure to society (at least in Western society) will continue to move it towards our acceptance.

      I have three within a two block walk! You'd think I was in Seattle already! The one I have always gone to is the quintessential "local coffee shop" though; local artist's works on the wall, drinks named after customers and local geography, and it's run down just enough to feel homey. Also, I can bring my 20oz coffee mug in and get it filled for the price of a small! :D

      Eczema was my excuse. *high fives!*   It's lovely when you get a nice interaction like that. Yesterday I got a "you're so sweet" from a man who I held the door for, I don't think he saw all of me until after he'd walked past so he only picked up on my outfit and body appearance. I was so paranoid that I used too male of a voice in return, but c'est la vie. I felt really nice after it though.   I tend to try to put in a lot of effort. If I wear make up, it has to be perfect, etc. I put this pressure on myself because I, too, don't have a chance in h-e-double hockey sticks at "passing".  So, I try not to make myself an "easy target".

      It's just the opposite here.  There are a ton of local boutique coffee roasters in this area.  There is no excuse for bad coffee here, which is why I am always surprised when I get mediocre truck-stop coffee in restaurants.
