Attention, Floridians of conscience: impeach DeSantis ASAP


Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been systematically destroying the state of Florida since he took office. He is currently ripping apart the state's educational structure, which will inevitably result in a generation of Florida students incapable of thinking for themselves.

Florida residents who care about their state's future as a democratic stronghold should be up in arms about this mess. Where are you folks? Where are the protests in the state capitol against what DeSantis and his cronies are doing and have done? If they're happening, why isn't the world hearing about them?

Or do y'all really not care?

Is it time for The Conch Republic to secede again?

 Shit that's got me wound right the fuck up

Manslaughter charges, at the least, for the cops. Bastards.

Leah Remini is suing the "Church" of Scientology for making her life hell. I hope she manages to financially gut that hellhole.

 Five years, that's all it's been, it's been five years

I just plain forgot about this blog. That's all.

So. I'm back in the saddle, ready to rant about shit in the world that I find intolerable. Today's pile of poop award goes to the Montana House of Representatives, which has had the gall to censure one of its members for speaking truth to power. Yeah, you know how that goes these days.

Rep. Zooey Zephyr (great name) simply wanted to warn her colleagues of the potential harm they'd be doing if they passed legislation banning gender-affirming care for young persons. She mentioned the word blood.

>The "Youth Health Protection Act" would restrict the use of hormone therapy, puberty blockers and >surgeries on people under age 18 for the purposes of gender transitioning.  "If you vote yes on this bill, >I hope the next time you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands." 

Ooohh, some fee-fees got hurt.

>The Montana Freedom Caucus, which includes several of Zephyr's colleagues, misgendered Zephyr by >using he/him pronouns and argued the legislation "protects minor children from forced life-altering and >unnecessary surgical procedures." 

Oh my god Becky lookit their butts.

This kind of garbage is going on in faux-Christian right-wing enclaves all over this country. Ever since Roe v. Wade was overturned, bills pushing back against civil rights for women and the LGBTQ+ community have been flooding into legislatures like an overturned piss bucket.

Which is why those of us who care about what happens to women and the LGBTQ+ community, and other marginalized communities, better STAND UP AND PAY ATTENTION. Take notes, people. Look at what your legislators are voting for and against. Keep tabs on them critters. If you don't like what they're doing, you know what to do next time Election Day rolls around.
