nothing like whining about “pronoun policing” (not even a link on that?) when since Day One, Trump has been using the power of the state to police pronouns on passports, erase mentions of trans people from landmarks to the CDC and NIH, confine trans women in federal prisons to men’s facilities…

Elissa Slotkin told Tim Alberta why her response to Trump's joint address did not touch on a laundry list of priorities from various advocacy groups. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

None of this would seem a revolutionary approach to rhetoric. Still, it was fraught with risk all the same: Democrats “have been on their heels since the election,” Slotkin told me, and the party faithful have been agitating since January 20 for someone, anyone, to stand up to Trump. The announcement of Slotkin had already been met with grumbling from progressives online; anything short of oratorical firebolts would confirm the complacent, feckless approach of the D.C. governing class. Slotkin viewed the stakes somewhat differently: This speech could, at least symbolically, commence a new chapter of Democratic Party opposition to a president whose success is inextricable from the tone-deaf ineptitude of Democratic Party opposition. If her team’s resistance to Trump’s first term was marked by hysteria and hashtags—all the land acknowledgments and pronoun policing and intersectionality initiatives—Slotkin saw last night the opportunity to set a different tone.

Wild that you can be a sitting Supreme Court justice and totally unaware of the history of discrimination against LGBTQ folks and the ways in which gender expression/identity has been lumped into that

I don’t see cis folks discussing this nearly enough, if at all. There is a LOT of denial from the cis community about the creeping acceptance of trans discrimination among Dems. How can we ever save these children if we won’t even recognize the facts in front of us?

Relieved that forgetting whose treats were in which pocket resulted only in my dog spitting out a sourpatch kid on the sidewalk and not me eating a tender beef recipe soft + moist training bite
