The Conversationalist@conversationalist.org · last mo."The growing anti-trans narrative wasn’t just a culture war skirmish, it was a symptom of something deeper and more dangerous: a coordinated effort to undermine democratic norms by turning vulnerable groups into political targets."
Trans Comedian Jo Ellis Calls Out Chelsea Handler and Marc Maron… All I know is this: Kill Tony changed my life. Tony Hinchcliffe gives everyone a chance. Just be funny. #killtony #TonyHinchcliffe #TransComedian #JoeRogan #austincomedy
Tony Hinchcliffe is transphobic. I have proof. He released an entire comedy special and he couldn’t do ONE joke about trans people?! What happened to representation? Watch “Man of the People” on Netflix and comment your thoughts
This weekend I did what might be the first stand-up comedy hybrid set ever performed at No Kings. I was asked to perform at No Kings 3 Austin Texas rally. I mixed jokes about Texas laws, trans military, religion, with a serious message about freedom.
I will be performing at the No Kings 3 ATX event hosted by Hands Off Central TX Saturday March 28th in Austin Texas. A larger than life first-amendment rally featuring music, activities, art, org tabling, and very cool people.
Wearing a Star of David gets me more hate online than being trans. Not fully converted yet, already getting the full experience. My hobby is collecting identities that people hate. What’s next? Vegan?
Today, the terrorist attack of my Jewish siblings in Sydney, Australia is felt direcly in my Jewish community here at home. “May God grant full and speedy healing to the wounded. May the memory of the murdered be for a blessing and may their families find comfort.”

He didn’t realize I was trans! This is why I disclose early and often. Can’t be too careful these days with all these trans folk among us. Keeping Austin, TX weird. #standupcomedy #trans #austincomedy #joelliseffect #transwoman #austintx
There’s a difference between gender expression and medical transition — and we need to be honest about it. We can’t pretend diagnosis doesn’t matter. #TransNormal #GenderDysphoria #Transmedicalism #Trans #Nuance #PragmaticTrans #CentristTrans #ProtectTransPeople
After a decade of progress providing gender-affirming care in her small-town clinic, this rural family doctor was forced to shut it all down under new political restrictions. “People only try to oppress what they fear. And in my purple town, we’re fine.” 🎙️ From TransNormal podcast - link in bio

My ex-wife showed up to my show with her new Belgian boyfriend… front row. 💀 Brave move. So yeah, I roasted them both — chocolate jokes, NATO jokes, you name it. 🍫🎤😂 #ComedyReels #StandUpComedy #Roast #Exes #Savage #TransComedian #ComedyShow
Being used as a political pawn sucks. The National Guard is made up of nurses, teachers, cops, parents... people who want to help in real disasters, not get federalized for photo ops. States’ rights should actually mean something. #StatesRights #FederalOverreach #nationalguard #pritzker
I was told this is the platform to demand banning of people. But I can’t find many people here to ban…
I’ve been using comedy to cut through the noise and reach people who’d never normally hear stories like mine. I tried reaching out to Fox News, Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson, Charlie Kirk, etc. — to talk about the crash rumor and lawsuit when it was unfolding. @rvamag.bsky.social
I’m saddened and appalled by the murder of Charlie Kirk. My heart is heavy for his family. They are in my prayers
I Love a Good Trans Joke: The Power of Humor as a trans person #standupcomedy. Clipped from my Feb 15, 2025 appearance on The DarkHorse Podcast with Bret Weinstein
The struggle is real when you come out to your wife as trans and she’s very straight. Please God make my wife a lesbian… didn’t work. She’s the one holding the phone in this clip and still there for me in so many ways. My best friend in life ❤️
Men in Texas give me weird looks and yes, like Texans, I’m pro 2a!!
I only came out of the closet to make room for more guns
Thousands of us are being purged from the military without regard to readiness, cost, or experience. People sent home from deployments, command positions vacated without replacements, and no plan to recoup qualified personnel. You can’t shortcut a decade+ of military experience.
This will hurt military readiness more than anything in recent history. Takes 18 months to train my replacement, but takes 16 years to give them the same amount of experience. Well over 1 million dollars just for me alone..
