I hope that Vance learns that this is the art of a gay man, & that it includes Michelangelo’s painting of his lover, Tommaso dei Cavalieri [pic].
Fascists do not understand art. How can they, when their ideology is to destroy freedom of expression? A Queer masterpiece dwarfs a bigot.

This is an example of the violence that anti-transgender thugs post, while claiming it's "to protect women."
Then they try to deny the teenagers who murdered Brianna Ghey were influenced by such rhetoric.

I want to say, in light of the news of our Supreme Court in the UK going along with the hateful bile towards trans people. I consider trans women to be women, and you are loved and valid. Don't let anyone tell you that you aren't. 🏳️⚧️🌈

I can’t help but think something has gone wrong in your life if you’re spending your morning off work holding a sign that says “Large Gametes”.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

It’s just occurred to me now, tho I don’t know why it’s taken me this long, that basically Trump is a sadist. He can’t fathom art or beauty & he hates those who can do so. It brings out the sadist in him. The kid from unstylish Queens who just wants to punish, to punish.

Sexed biological characteristics DO matter in healthcare
The thing that does not matter in the slightest is the vibes-based teleological construct of Biological Sex At Birth.
