Welcome to #TransTuesday! This week we’re going to take a personal look into my past to look at THE SIGNS THAT WERE ALWAYS THERE EVEN WHEN WE REFUSED TO SEE THEM. There’s no other way to say this than… this is gonna be embarrassing. For me.

They won't. Here is what they will argue in 2024:
- Trans people are dangerous
- Liberal women kill babies
- CRT is racist indoctrination of elementary kids

Eagle eyes readers might notice that literally all of these are lies. Republicans don't have policy. They have lies. Bigoted, fascist lies, designed explicitly to hurt people for profit.

I'm continuously amazed that the left is somehow unaware of this. Anyone who thinks the right will debate policy in 2024 is fooling themselves.

Let the GOP presidential candidate argue with this in 2024:

@lolgop The fact that they keep letting these people come on TV or post their opinions without challenge is maddening. It's not "even-handed" to allow little Marco or Asa Hutchinson or some other lying shill onto your platform without challenging or calling out their lies.

FFS they are not the same. Claiming that a balloon is more of a threat to our nation than armed traitors shitting on the floor of the Captiot is insane.

Visited Georgetown last weekend with the dogs and someone took a photo of us and then sent it to us. Too good not to share.

"She likes long walks on the beach..." A couple of North Carolina's wild Spanish mustangs, locally known as banker ponies, walk along the beach on the northern Outer Banks near Carova. A black stallion is followed by a young sorrel mare with flaxen mane.

One of my shots from Bryce Canyon National Park. I found this one to be quite a contrast to Zion, which I had been to a couple of days before.

A big cold wave in Kyoto once every 10 years. The familiar city was also colored with snow. #Photomonday #写真 #photography

So it seems the North Carolina (elected) Supreme Court is about to say that it is OK to disenfranchise voters of the wrong color and political persuasion.

These are fascists using the cover of law to take over society.

@GTinNC ....thoughts & prayers?

Fascism couldn't spread without the help and support of the media.

Presumably Elon is hoping his announced "ad revenue sharing" scheme for ads on replies (for Twitter Blue subs) will bring in more Twitter Blue subs. But watch what happens to firms and organizations that fork over $1000/month + $50/mo/user under the currently reported #Twitter "gold check" scheme Elon has supposedly cooked up. Any org or firm seen to be paying that kind of money to Elon is likely going to be mercilessly taunted from various quarters.
