"where were all the trans people before?"

We hid. And if we didn't hide, we died.
- we were deemed clinically insane.
- we we imprisoned.
- we were put in institutions.
- we were forcibly medically castrated.
- we were tortured with electric shocks.
- we were lobotomized.
- we were hunted down and killed.
- our murderers claimed "panic" and were set free.
- many of us chose the "easy way out" instead.

Helping trans people exist is good, actually.

Btw, for those wondering: this flu sucks. I am not seeing a wave of critically ill young adults this year, which is great. I am seeing a wave of pretty ill older adults (admitted someone under 60 today), as well as many ill children. Some of these folks won’t walk out of the hospital, some will walk out with their health forever changed, and many will be ok until they get the bills.

If you want to stay healthy, wear an N-95 in public spaces.

Dr. Richardson’s Letter analyses the many attempts to force christian mythology (my word) into control of government. An excellent read.

—————

My take: The confederacy’s ideal of subordination under white men lives on today. They are trying to force this as a replacement of our government.

There is NO PLACE for white supremacy in a modern world. The thought of subjugation or white supremacy is sickening. All are equal.

There is NO PLACE for religion in government. Religious belief (or disbelief) is individual and cannot not be forced.

Continuing to work on Wrens instead of trying to understand the news(?) … grift, lies, evil … are better descriptors. Warblers next

One of the most common Wrens that you may see, the Northern House Wren is comfortable in the woods and around populated areas. The nest in roughly the northern 2/3 of the US and overwinter along the coasts and in Mexico. Boisterous, aggressive with a wonderful song.
