I Didn't Say It ...

Dylan Mulvaney, social media  personality who detailed her gender transition in 2022, and was blasted by rightwingnuts after her Bud Light social media partnership, accepting the Streamy Award for “Breakout Creator”:

“532 days ago, I made a coming out video that turned into my ‘Days of Girlhood’ series and my life has been changed for the better, but on the flip side, there’s also been an extreme amount of transphobia and hate, and I know that my community is feeling it and I now know that even our allies are feeling it. I look around this room and I see so many amazing allies that have platforms, and I think allyship right now needs to look differently. And you need to support trans people publicly and proudly. I think the trans community and the creator community actually have something in common. And it’s that people often underestimate us. But I know that we can stay optimistic about the future of trans-ness in general … It just means a lot to me, but I also think that the fact a trans person can win an award like this in such a scary time of transphobia—it makes me feel like there’s hope. I love you so much, thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m gonna go have a beer!”

That’s how it’s done: stand up, speak up, live up … loud. And we all need to do it for our trans brothers and sisters, our bisexual brothers and sisters, everyone in the LGBTQ+ family.

Stand together and stand strong.

Chris Christie, GOP presidential candidate, blasting DeFascist and Inmate # P01135809 on Anti-Trans Laws

“We’re having a lot of arguments in this country about transgender issues, and there are some—including [Governor DeSantis]—who believe that he should decide what can happen in your family, with your children and not. I don’t want him deciding what happens inside my family. We have this group now, folks like Ron DeSantis and [Inmate # P01135809] and Vivek Ramaswamy who believe in big government conservatism and if there’s something going on in this country they don’t personally like, they want the government to pass a law to stop it. Sorry, no one knows or loves my four children more than me and my wife. I think that applies to every parent out there, and I want parents and families to make those decisions.”

It should bother everyone that the party of smaller government wants to tell you how to raise your kids, what your kids can say, what they can read or learn or study.

Now, I am not a fan of Chris Christie but when his is the voice of reason in a political party that should say something about the out of touch nature of the GOP..

Nikki Haley, playing the age card on Fox News:

“It’s sad. No one should feel good about seeing that any more than we should feel good about seeing Dianne Feinstein, any more than we should feel good about a lot of what’s happening or seeing Joe Biden’s decline. What I will say is, right now the Senate is the most privileged nursing home in the country. I mean, Mitch McConnell has done some great things and he deserves credit. But you have to know when to leave.”

Funny, but does anyone notice how she never mentions Inmate # P01135809 who, at age 77, is only four years younger than Biden? And does anyone else think she doesn’t mention the inmate’s age because, should he get the nomination, she’ll once again praise him in the hopes of getting the VP spot.

Pandering ageist bitch; she’s so transparent.

Jeanine Pirro, Fox News ranting., boxed wine guzzling loon, saying the quiet part out loud in a resurfaced 2016 rant:

“Whether or not you like Hillary Rodham Clinton, or [Inmate # P01135809] doesn’t matter. There is only one person you can vote for. We cannot have a country led by a president subject to ongoing criminal investigations, potential indictment, and never-ending hearings. We cannot have a president under that level of scrutiny that inevitably leads to even more questions and more investigations. And irrespective of what happens to her, whether she’s indicted or even guilty, it doesn’t matter. Her guilt is a moot point. She cannot take the Oval Office. How is the world is going to look at the United States, when a woman under federal criminal investigation, who has lied repeatedly to the American people, is elected?”

Oops. Jeanine really should lay off the sauce because in vino veritas, and her 2016 truth fills the bill today more than 7 years ago because Hillary was never indicted, arrested, fingerprinted, mug shot; not once, not ninety-one times.

Ncuti Gatwa, Barbie and Doctor Who actor, coming out:

“I’ve experienced racism my whole life, and while I always believed in myself, always knew [racists] were stupid and uneducated, I guess it did misinform my view of how the world works. It makes you think everyone has that opinion and you’ll constantly have to fight through life—then you learn that you don’t: you can find a tribe, you can find your people. I remember being at Manchester Pride, going through the streets with all my boys, shaking my cha-chas, living it up, when I saw this woman who looked exactly like my auntie. She wasn’t—but I knew she was Rwandan [and] I had never met another queer Rwandan person before. I thought I was the only one in the world.”

You aren’t the only one, Ncuti Gatwa, and you aren’t the last one either. We are everywhere, and every time one of us comes out, it strengthens all of us, so Welcome Out.

Gatwa has never publicly disclosed his sexuality before but in an Elle magazine profile he mentioned being distracted by one of his co-stars in director Greta Gerwig’s Barbie:

“There was a time when I was talking to Greta and I turned around and Ryan Gosling was looking at me and his eyes were so blue that I just… fell over. I just drowned in his eyes.”

I could say the same about Ncuti; he’s a cute little nugget.
