Sang 'Oh when the Spurs', to baby at bedtime, dancing fingers...and she smiled, laughed and did the dancing fingers along with me #staunch

What do a 77-year-old #staunch #Republican and self-proclaimed “#bigot” and a 25-year-old #queer #nonbinary #barber covered in #tattoos have in common?

Nothing. But the two formed an unlikely #friendship anyway.

If the medium term goal is to stop an openly fascistic POTUS 47 in 2024 then:
Trans folk are here to stay. Done deal.
Every issue that divides and wedges is being sought out, tested and then weaponized for maximum effect by Repubs.
Modeling and using responses that de-fang Repub fear and hate anti-trans points is needed.

If you need help learning these responses then ask for help here.

Some are already being used.
We can build new ones too.
