The Kilted Mermaid is a terrific restaurant in Vero Beach. Great food and service. Upbeat, fun. Owned by Democratic elected official, Linda Moore, who celebrates the local queer community. No wonder Moms for Liberty, Florida's fascism auxiliary would target her.
Red states over index for gay and trans porn. If you overlay a map of greatest incidence and frequency of LGBTQ porn per capita over a map of the Confederacy you achieve allmost a 90% correlation.
Criminalizing Drag Queen Bingo was a bridge too far, IMHO! On a sober note, US is becoming toxic to the entire LGBTQ+ 🏳️🌈 community, not just trans 🏳️⚧️ folks. Meanwhile we have yet to see the Epstein list of pedophiles
I'm Jewish, transfem, and socialist, too (albeit a libertarian-socialist, or an anarcho-syndicalist), so I totally understand. We're several lines deep into Niemöller's famous poem.
No shit! Nice to make your acquaintance. I live in a blue city in deep red state Indiana. Mike Pence, when he was governor, attacked our LGBTQ+ community every chance he had. Pence particularly focused on groups supporting LGBTQ+ youth.
As a queer trans lesbian progressive wiccan, I too wonder what color my patch will be in the death camp, be it Sarasota Sobibor, Texas Treblinka, or Alligator Auschwitz. Maybe Hugo Boss or the anti-Trans self loathing gay Dolce e Gabbana will design them!
It's worth adding that while conservatives against drag queens reading books about love and family, one the most iconic institutions of MAGA world - UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) - which oversees events in which contestants inside a cage engage like Roman gladiators in barely legal hand-to-hand, knee to groin, combat that makes boxing look tame, allow children of any age to attend and watch contestants pummel each other until there is too much blood on the floor or there are too many broken bones. And, UFC is now promoting youth UFC clubs. It won't be long before some Americans, many of them so-called Christians, literally start throwing drag queens and trans people to the lions.
It's already begun. Just look at the increase of public acts of assault and violence against transgender women and women assumed to be transgender, all surrounded by witnesses just watching the attacks with great avidity.
We are already being fed to the lions (leopards are now too well-fed to participate) and all we lack now is the monetization of the process.
Let's flood Vice President Linda Moore's email with positive support. LMoore@covb.org The strength it takes to be a LOUD voice can use some positive emails for sure.
Matt Stone and Trey Parker had it right when they implicitly compared Donald John Trump to Saddam Hussein, in that they're both two-bit tinpot dictators.
Historically, repression is usually presaged by "It's for the protection of the children". Should this little travesty be successful, you can look for it to occur in other "god fearing" states. If there really were a supreme being, she/he would be sooo proud.
And yet the Governor has ordered flags at half staff for Hulk Hogan day 🤔 Barbara Kruger said it best in her Art- You construct intricate rituals which allow you to touch the skin of other men
"Florida man" lmao ty for that
Love the last paragraph too.

There are photos of Uthmeier in drag. Bet on it!
I was just going to write "Who wants to take bets that there is trans porn on Uthmeier's hard drive?"!
Great minds think alike!

Someone needs to go through his high school yearbooks.

We're protected somewhat in blue cities such as NYC, and look to be even more protected should Zohran Mamdani win the election and keep his promises.
But yeah, you're right, the situation here in the US is dire.
Add to it that I’m Jewish, immigrant, and socialist, and I am left wondering what patch am I going to be wearing in the concentration camp.

Thanks for reporting this story, S. Baum.

Stop keeping business records. Zero retention.
Florida must replace the governor (a trump follower) and his cronies in the next election otherwise this will never stop
I’m pleased to see that someone stood up to these racists and immoral thugs

literal US Morality Police looking for Unchristian Behavior
The United States now ranks below the Islamic Republic of Iran when it comes to civil rights for transgender and gender expansive people.
What a milestone of achievement for the GOPMAGAs!
Truly they deserve recognition for their efforts!
And Trump has been Nobel nominated and irony is dead, dead, dead, left to bleed out in a dark alley, corpse festering ever so silently.
Matt Stone and Trey Parker had it right when they implicitly compared Donald John Trump to Saddam Hussein, in that they're both two-bit tinpot dictators.
Thank you for you great work, S. Baum and Erin Reed! Rock on!
