Remains of the Day (03/30)













Various: Martina Navratilova was blacklisted for saying there needs to be more than just self-ID for trans women to compete in elite sports -- and now someone is hilariously driving the point home ... to the dismay of a champion trans(!) power-lifter in Alberta. BTW: No one is saying average trans people are "obsessed" with sports -- that's what rightwing lunatics do, blow issues that affect very few out of proportion. But by not getting AHEAD of this, activists hurt all LGBT people by letting extremist views -- allowing someone with XY chromosomes who has taken zero measures to transition to compete in girls' sports -- help ignite a culture war, a war we were winning just a few years ago.

  1. Your biggest fan here but the comment about dogs "when they're not mauling people" is disappointing. Who says that? Dogs (and cats) are everything.

  2. I don't follow. I'm terrified of dogs -- they're constantly attacking people:

    I'm sorry that not everyone's lived experience matches yours.
