Grateful to @brigittebandit.bsky.social for coming by my office and discussing the issues Austin’s LGBTQ+ community faces.
I’m committed to seeing how Austin can do more to show up for our queer and trans neighbors – not just in words, but in action.

Every so often I think about how AFAB drag queen Brigitte Bandit showed up to the Lege in a pink dress and full makeup and yet the GOP insisted on calling her "he" bc in their conception of reality, all drag queens are men, so her performance of hyperfemininity WAS a performance of masculinity

When the Nazis first came to power, within a few months, they raided the Institute for Sexuality which did the first studies of trans people.
The books they seized were burned here, including a copy of Heinrich Heines poem that said, "where they burn books, they will ultimately burn people too."
