I haven't found one single haulathon thing near me, closest was stitch as Elvis, but I don't think that was one of the releases

North Carolinians, check to see if your vote for Riggs was thrown out. You have 2 weeks to correct it!

They're lying to you about transgender women and girls in sports

They're lying to you about transgender women and girls in sports Michelle R. Martinelli For The Win

Theyโ€™re lying about transgender people in this world. Theyโ€™re lying about what LGBTQ+ inclusion in society really means, and theyโ€™re lying about trans people in sports. Theyโ€™re lying about a โ€œtransgender cultโ€ and โ€œtransgender insanity,โ€ about teachers indoctrinating kids with โ€œtransgender ideologyโ€ and about โ€œmaking mice transgender.โ€ 

Right-wing activists, anti-trans bigots, many politicians, the president โ€” theyโ€™re lying to you about many things but especially trans women and girls in sports. Theyโ€™re lying about transgender athletes supposedly ruining womenโ€™s sports, and theyโ€™re lying about this being a ubiquitous โ€œproblem.โ€

They are deliberately and strategically lying about trans folksโ€™ lives, about trans athletes and about their own disingenuous motivations for pushing these lies. They donโ€™t care because they keep doing it. 

Worse, itโ€™s working.

They're lying about trans people, especially trans women and girls in sports, probably, in part, because the actual data doesn't support their arguments. 
Yet several states have their own bans against trans athletes competing in sports consistent with their gender identity, despite expert estimates of fewer than 100 trans high school athletes nationwide. In 2022, Utah's Republican governor, Spencer Cox, vetoed an anti-transgender bill - it was eventually overruled by the legislature - and outlined his rationale. Along with the high suicide rates for trans youth, he noted that of 75,000 high school athletes in the state, four identified as trans and just one student was playing girls' sports. A whole state bill targeting four athletes, but really, one.

I can't remember the last time I saw an article just focus on this. Not that they've bent the truth or misrepresented a few facts a little, but that every single solitary thing that the GOP says on the topic is a stone cold lie with absolutely no basis in reality.

I just found out the proper name for doggo zoomies is Frenetic Random Activity Periods, or FRAPS.

I donโ€™t know how to live with this knowledge.

I just saw someone say on here that the GOP "is a useless as tits on a bull"
However, he's describing a cow. The animals we get most of our milk and dairy products from. They're EXTREMELY useful. He needs a better metaphor badly

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.
