I'm so exhausted but I have t say just, something. and its tomorrow.

Vote against the Trump administration.
I
mean, I'm hoping most of you already will. but in case.

theres so much wrong, so many reasons, but just this latest example? they effectively want to legislate intersex and transgender people out of existence.
(if there can only be "male" and "female" and they want a simple dichotomy, I have to assume there's no room in their model for intersex people either.)

 this will make a whole lot of people's lives so much harder. this will put peoples lives in danger, for no reason except Trump and co's urge to rewrite reality to match their own rigid preconception of it. it's putting one group's ideals over the LIVES of people whose existence and experience they don't want to recognize.

(oh, and if you like my art? if you hope to see more? that makes me so happy, I'm working my ass off to get my act together so I can start posting again come January. but I wouldnt be here, my existing art wouldnt exist, if not for certain friends of mine who are transgender. they were among the people who kept me alive.)

if you can't vote with empathy, vote with self preservation. it is quite telling how they are trying to reduce a whole spectrum of nuances of human nature and potential to a dichotomy thats easier for them to handle and serves their desires better.
thats not an isolated move; this is part of a pattern of them pretending things and people they find undesirable arent real (and so, deserve no voice, protection or safety). they will find more targets.

(apparently they claim it's to protect women and children... because they think trans women are just men in disguise, waiting to prey on cis women in the restroom. but even putting aside how irrational that is, what do these people otherwise do to protect women? to make women's lives safer, at work, anywhere? What respect or consideration have you seen them show women and children before this? which women and children do they consider worthy of protection, and which not?)

the whole thing is just a really good example of how Trump and the people behind him talk about "science" because it suits them, while ignoring actual science on the subject because it doesnt flatter their world view.

How will he "put people's lives in danger"?

Look in the mirror there, man. Cute art, but you're flat out wrong when it comes to this stuff.
