One of them theys they're doing now
"It gives clarity" - so does every fascist policy? Of course it's neat to categorise people into immutable little boxes, limit their behaviour, and punish difference

If you'd rather the law be simple than just I don't understand you

Is that what they call an anti-Pope?

The thing is I am actually in favour of limiting damage where possible - if I were American I'd have voted for Harris through gritted teeth, but as far as I can see, nobody in government is willing to do anything even slightly good

By the way if you normally consider yourself supportive of trans people in support reaction is "ooh maybe that's a problem", just know that your actual position is "trans women can be play sports but only if they suck"

If you don't know, the latest anti trans outrage right now is that a pool tournament (yes, that highly strength-based sport pool) has two tran women in the final

Also the idea that the overton window has shifted left when labour are slashing disability benefits and the established American right's favourite bit at the moment is doing Nazi salutes is fucking insane

And yes, I think it's likely they'll vote out Alexander, even if they mostly think he's faithful, there's just no incentive not to

Oof, yeah you're right - very complicated! If Charlotte can find the presence of mind to suggest it and Frankie realises she's cooked too. That would be nailbiting!

No doubt it will be a great episode of TV, but the Traitor vs Faithful aspect is surely over (in a way I wasn't expecting!)

Then the intrigue is whether the remaining faithfuls recognise they're all faithful, and if they do, whether they decide they'd rather share between two than three, probably leading to Alexander being voted out
