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.  

 

Hugs,

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".)

      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.

      It’s a huge difference, the laser has done wonders. I still have some stragglers, but I hope a few more sessions to try to zap those. Mostly what’s left are the white/blonde hairs, they still need a shave but they don’t really cause me much dysphoria.   I do use makeup, I barely go out without liner and mascara these days. Don’t tend to do a full face, but when I go for a little coverage I use tinted moisturizer and a little concealer under setting powder. Here’s me today, with about as much makeup as I go out with (forgive me the wings, I struggled today…), I went and got my hair done, so I had to look good for the ladies.

      This is me as well. I wear dresses and skirts exclusively.  That is pretty obvious.  When I get misgendered, it's not by mistake.

      These places have the best food.   Unfortunately, the one I used to go to thinks I'm going to hell these days.

      I'm glad to hear it! Fruits and veggies time! I just had a greek yogurt with flax meal and blueberries and now I'm feeling better about that! I am so glad you're OK!   Just finished my second cup of coffee after an appointment with my normal stylist, I haven't see her since November! First time see her since going femme full time. I'd texted her before the appointment, just in case, but she has been super sweet the whole time. Not much hair ended up on the floor, but I'm going to need the back trimmed before long but for now I just got some shaping done.   Ugh, I'm sorry to hear that. My guess is your neighbor won't be paying the medical bill...

      Doubt it, most people against the T are also against the LGB, I am bi and it all seems to intersect one way or another. Trans people are "new" in the eyes of the public so its just a weird thing for them all.

      I have the same feeling as you. I often wish I had started HRT earlier or was on puberty blockers, maybe I could have been taller than 5'7. But there's nothing you can do about it now, that's life and as much as it sucks and seems pointless at times you have to work with what you are given. "Passing isn't the end all be all" I hear a lot but to me it is everything, as much as that may sound like an insane position It is just how I feel.   Anyway, on the topic of your mother, mine had the same sentiment and mostly still does along with my father. Im not sure how old you are but you seem to be around my age or younger, I am 17. But most families don't know how to deal with it and they will probably see you as your original gender no matter what you do. Their comments mean nothing really because in the end when adulthood rolls around you can just leave or at least have some independence from them.   I would also not compare yourself to other males, it will eat you alive. I just remind myself that I will get there, maybe I won't be the pillar of masculinity but ill pass one day. Envy is the thief of happiness or something like that.

      I can never find coffee that matches good restaurants coffee.  The closest iv come so far was when I accidentally made a pot last week with less water than I had meant to use.  But that still wasn’t right.  Now I’ve heard put a little salt in with the ground coffee or add baking soda but I have no clue how much to use.   home baked pie in the local cafe is the best, but the best Key Lime pie was from a place called The Fish House in Key Largo. One thing they do differently is the topping is meringue not whipped cream. But it’s also made from real key limes.  An advantage of being in the keys.   willow

      They have unleashed the hounds toward every less than perfectly, and idealistically feminine Cis woman in the state to be sued for not looking the way a plaintiff thinks they should look.
