So here’s video of a cop throwing a lesbian against a wall and out of a washroom for dressing too butch<\/a>, as the Gender Police start stepping up their game. This has been happening for a while, but the new fundamentalist right Queer Panic is really ramping it back up again. It’s like Saudi Arabia and the goddamn religious police in action, only, you know, it’s not a death penalty situation – yet.<\/p>\n

That video pretty much instantly triggered a new Mary Kaye and the Cosmetics song. They’re my all-dyke hardcore punk alt-band who play only Hello Kitty-branded instruments, and they write shit like this and My Boyfriend and Sad Muppet. I’ve worked out the lyrics and most of the chords, of which there are four.<\/p>\n

It’s short and very screamy. I’m not sure I have the vocal chops for it but I’m going to try. The lyrics are not<\/em> worksafe.<\/p>\n

Also, this same pack of assholes are going to be ramping up their local to me<\/em> initiative campaign next week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

See, they may have local activists, but all these trace back to one specific large group of fundamentalist\/reconstructionist lawyers who advocate making queer people illegal across the world<\/a>. This time, it results in putting a $2500 bounty on trans kids in schools. I am not even making that shit up, it’s $2500 per kid per washroom break<\/em>, because as I’ve said before: these SOBs aren’t happy unless they can make queer kids as miserable and broken as possible. It’s what they live<\/em> for.<\/p>\n

And yet, somehow, we’re<\/em> the supervillains. jfc.<\/p>\n

I think I’m gonna go work more on that song now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
