Billionaire tRump supporters running the government, running the newspapers, running pretty much everything now. Sounds familiar.
“I object to being designated as the national bird on the eve of the country being handed over to turkeys.”
I screwed up with this post and I will look to see if there are others. This is an offense to trans people and I understand why. It is also offensive to gay men when they are depicted as submissive females. I really dropped the ball on this and thank Janet and Ali who called me out on it. Be low is Janet’s comment. I post it with her permission. I apologize for my error. Hugs
Re: President Musk and his First Lady
I would ask that we not misgender Trump. As much as I hate him, that is reinforcing of the root of anti-trans woman transphobia. That being feminine is “less than” is straight up misogyny. Never mind that the “man in a dress” imagery is direct from the anti-trans playbook.
I would ask that liberals not stoop to their level. I believe that you don’t mean it that way, but it nevertheless normalizes and reinforces that thought pattern.
The collection of memes is excellent otherwise.
Again I appreciate it when my viewers point out my own short sightedness, my own shortcomings. I also have much to learn but I admit that I did not catch this myself irritates me greatly. Hugs

Thank you. And I second this. It’s well spoken, I have nothing to add to it.

Hi Ali. Please see my reply to Janet and if you wish to add something I will listen. I screwed up, not thinking. In truth I felt the jab would hurt tRump’s overly massive ego … but Janet’s comment really opened my eyes on this and I will have to be more aware of the issue in the future. Hugs

Hi Janet. I apologize. I did not think of it the way you presented it and I should have. Your point is true and well taken. How often have gay guys been presented in memes and media as females. I will remove the meme from the post if you want. As the person who is my trans authority, I will agree to your request on this. I will really try hard to not post future misgender slurs like that. Thank you. I also apologize for the time it has taken me to get to your comment. I have saved 40 of them over the Christmas season to respond to when I could. Please get back to me on if you want me to remove the meme. Based on what you said and the way I now feel about it I think I should. But if I do then your comment which is important will not have much meaning to future readers. Please let me know how you would like me to fix this bad mistake on my part. Hugs

Hi Janet. I made the correction you asked. When you get a chance could you look it over and see if it is what we want to express moving forward. Again thank you for pointing it out to me and I regret it took me this long to get to it. Hugs

Oh Janet, it is me that thanks you. You were correct. I am not sure if I am getting old or what, but I wish I had seen it for what it is and not posted it. But then … Maybe me posting it and you correcting me makes the point far better than just not posting it would. This blog is an advocate and part of that is teaching people … and I just got taught deservedly so. It is something that will stick with me. And also embarrasses me because I feel foolish for not spotting that issue until you told me. The kind of lesson one doesn’t quickly forget. Hugs

Hi Bruce. Yes I liked that one also. See I grew up in New England and as I never wanted to be in my abusive home I wandered the woods and swam in ponds created by beaver dams. I stopped doing that after one time about 16 / 17 I was swimming nude in this pond with my penis dangling down feeling so good … I felt movement in the water very close to me and put my face in the water and looked around to see a large beaver swimming right underneath me. I kept swimming only enough to stay moving and afloat … As the beaver moved just inches from my most prized part of my body then moved forward out from under me. Once it cleared me, I stopped, turned around. Then swam madly to the shore and put on my clothing. I never swam in that pond again. I had done enough fishing in my life to know what a dangling moving … large worm … makes a fish do. I don’t know if beavers like penises … oh wait I did not mean it that way. But I was terrified it would decide to take my little limb home to the dam house. I still shiver wondering how long that beaver was there under me? I was halfway across the pond when I felt / noticed it. Was it as just curious? Was it using my body to make swimming easier? Did it like people as I know of other teen boys who swam there nude. Not me. One scare was enough. Hugs
