Bobservations

In addition to Retinitis Pigmentosa Carlos also suffers from Usher’s Syndrome which affects hearing; it seems RP and Usher’s kind of go hand-in-hand. So, when Carlo uses his phone it’s on speaker and I can usually hear the conversation.

The other day I was back in our home office and heard his phone ring and could clearly hear the entire conversation. A few minutes later Carlos appeared in the office and said Bo had called; Bo is a friend and he and Carlos get together about once a week to play music.

“Bo said he can’t get together today.”

“I know.”

“You know?”

“Yes, he suggested maybe this Saturday.”

“How do you know that?”

“Sweetie, I hear everything that goes on in this house, and I see most things, too.”

“You don’t see things—”

“Don’t I? Don’t I have cameras all over the house?”

“You don’t.”

But the look on his face suggested otherwise.

This Tuxedo Says is from November 2020 and Tuxedo was over politics so … he wanted to get away from the election and took to listening to some country music, and he just doesn’t quite get it.

Iowa State Democratic Representative J.D. Scholten was as disgusted by GOP Senator Joni Ernst and her “We’re all gonna die” nonsense that he announced he will run against Ernst next year:

“After her comments over the weekend … that’s when I just said: This is unacceptable and you’ve gotta jump in.”

Hopefully, he can sound the death knell for Ernst’s time in Congress.

There is nothing like the appearance of shy pink cakes on a beach somewhere, eh?

Loretta Swit, who played Major Margaret “Hot Lips” Houlihan on seminal TV comedy “MASH,” died last week at the age of 87. For her work on “MASH” Swit was Emmy nominated for outstanding performance by a supporting actor in a comedy every year from 1974-83, winning the Emmy in 1980 and 1982.

I always loved her because Margaret wasn’t one-note; she adapted and changed year-to-year and Swit made her a character and not a caricature.

RIP Hot Lips.

Wisconsin Democratic Governor Tony Evers took aim at the White House last week when he raised a Pride flag at the state Capitol in recognition of Pride Month. It’s the seventh time Evers has raised the flag since he was first elected, and it comes as The Felon’s Regime has taken steps to eliminate protections for LGBTQ+ Americans:

“We will fight and overcome all those in every capitol and in the White House who want to erase the vast and vibrant identities, stories, and communities that make America so great.”

On the flip side Wisconsin Republicans introduced a bill earlier this year that would ban state buildings from flying flags related to religious, political or gender identities.

And for the first time ever, Pride flags will be flown at the Hawaii State Capitol throughout June, as Governor Josh Green has declared Pride Month:

“In Hawaii, aloha is more than a word, it’s a value that guides how we treat one another, with love, respect and dignity. Flying the Pride flag at our state Capitol is a proud reflection of that aloha, as well as our deep commitment to inclusion. While other places are pushing people to the margins, Hawaii is leading with compassion and courage, recognizing that our Mahu and LGBTQIA+ communities have always been a valued part of our story, and always will be.”

Ah, inclusion, such a simple idea that makes life better for everyone.

And also … in Montana the Missoula City Council approved a resolution recognizing the Pride flag as the only official flag of the city of Missoula, according to Ryan Sudbury, the city attorney for Missoula:

“Currently, there is only one official flag for the City of Missoula, and that’s the Pride flag adopted last night. There was no prior official flag.”

The resolution comes in response to House Bill 819, which GOP Governor Greg Gianforte signed into law last May which prohibits flags on state property, including public schools, that represent a “political viewpoint, including but not limited to flags or banners regarding a political party race, sexual orientation, gender or political ideology” on government property.

Sorry, Greg, love wins.

Sean Penn, who won an Oscar for starring as Harvey Milk in 2008’s Milk, spoke out about DUI hire and U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s decision to strip the name of the gay rights activist and late San Francisco Supervisor from a Navy ship:

“I’ve never before seen a Secretary of Defense so aggressively demote himself to the rank of Chief PETTY Officer.”

Oh, playing a gay man really upped Penn’s shade game!

The Pedophiles Are Inside The Churches

It’s been a while since we noted the child sexual abuse going on in our nation’s churches by our church leaders, teachers, and such, so let’s take a look, thanks to JoeMyGod, at the latest scandals …

ILLINOIS

Isaiah Mikkelson, who was a youth leader at Hope Lutheran Church in Quincy, was sentenced to 6 years each for two counts of criminal sexual abuse of a victim between 13 and 18 years old on church property.

OHIO

Michael Zacharias, a former priest was sentenced to life in prison on two counts and 20 years on three counts. A federal jury found him guilty of five counts of sex trafficking, some of which involved minors. Zacharias used his position as a priest at Saint Michael the Archangel Parish to target victims and coerce them into sex acts.

NORTH CAROLINA

Daniel Jeremy Abraham, a teacher at a Christian school has been charged with indecent liberties with a student and sexual battery involving a student.

WISCONSIN

Anne Nelson-Koch, a former Tomah Baptist Academy teacher has been sentenced  to 10 years prison, 15 years supervised release for convictions on 25 counts of sexual assault, repeatedly forcing a 14-year-old student to engage in sex acts during school hours.

TEXAS

Corey White, a former youth pastor at Redeemer Midland, was arrested and charged with Access with Intent to View Child Sexual Abuse Materials.

And again, not one drag queen or gay person in the bunch, and two cases of child rape are in Don’t Say Gay and Ban Drag Sows Florida; makes one think Ronnie DeSantis is focusing on the wrong crowd in his state.

And it kinda makes it look like that whole GOP smear campaign about ‘gay people and drag queens are grooming children” is just a lie to cover-up for the real groomers … the so-called Men and Women of God.

The Pedophiles Are Inside The Churches ... Still

It’s been a while since we noted the child sexual abuse going on in our nation’s churches by our church leaders, teachers, and such.

So let’s take a look, thanks to JoeMyGod, at the latest scandals …

OREGON

Christopher Pruitt, a Beaverton pastor was jailed last week after being accused of inappropriately touching two young girls who were members of his congregation. Pruitt was indicted on six counts of first-degree sexual abuse and two counts of third-degree sexual abuse.

Michael Sperou, former pastor and co-founder of North Clackamas Bible Community, was sentenced to 13 years in prison after he was found guilty of two counts of first-degree unlawful sexual penetration; this marks the third time since 2015 that Sperou has been tried for sexual abuse.

Mosley is no longer a pastor at the United Methodist Church but at the time of his arrest was serving at a church outside of Schuylkill County.

And again, not one drag queen or gay person in the bunch.

Huh, it’s almost like that whole ‘gay people and drag queens are grooming children” nonsense is a lie to cover-up for the real groomers … the so-called Men and Women of God.

Vote. Vote Blue. And Here's Why, AGAIN!

It’s been a few weeks since we checked in on the GOP and their special brand of bigotry and ignorance, so let’s dive right in …

NORTH DAKOTA

The state GOP voted last week to raise their own meal reimbursements to $45 a day. This happened less than two weeks after that same state GOP blocked a bill to provide free school lunches to low-income students.

Tell me again how the GOP is pro-family or pro-children.

 TENNESSEE

GOP lawmakers have expelled two Democrat Representatives, Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, from the House for taking part in a peaceful demonstration for gun reform that was staged in the aftermath of a Nashville school shooting that left six people dead. A third Democrat, Gloria Johnson, was barely saved from expulsion.

Of note, the two Democrats expelled were two Black men, while the white woman was saved.

FLORIDA

Ron DeSantis signed HB 543 into law this week that will allow Floridians to carry a concealed firearm without the need for a permit. People can now carry concealed firearms without going through the background screening and training that is currently required to have a concealed carry license.

More guns. Less control.

IDAHO

The state legislature has passed the nation’s first law that makes it illegal for minors to travel out-of-state to get an abortion without parental consent.

Idaho already has a near-total abortion ban in place but neighboring Washington and Oregon allow minors to get an abortion without their parent’s consent, so Idaho will restrict its residents from interstate travel for abortion access.

Why not just lock up all pregnant women until they give birth?

FLORIDA

A survey finds that among Florida’s incoming college freshmen, dissatisfaction with Governor Ron DeSantis’s education policies runs deep … deep enough in some cases to make them look for college opportunities in another state.

Intelligent.com surveyed over 1,000 Florida students, including 783 still in high school and 364 current undergrads and found that 91% of prospective college students disagree with the governor’s policies and that 1 in 8 graduating high school students won’t attend college in Florida due to education policy in the state.

Florida will become a ghost town save for the elderly and the fascists.

MISSOURI

The Missouri House has put forth new budget bills that would eliminate state funding for libraries across the state. The House Budget Committee has proposed to cut the entire $4.5 million budget slated for Missouri libraries last week after the American Civil Liberties Union [ACLU] filed a lawsuit to overturn a new Missouri law that bans “explicit sexual” images from all school materials, including library books. The law, passed last year, does not apply to written descriptions of sex or sexual acts; only photos, drawings, videos and other visual depictions are prohibited but librarians and other school officials face up to a year in jail or a $2,000 fine for violating the policy.

It might be easier just to ban all books.

MONTANA

Republicans in the state Legislature are trying to change the rules for next year’s Senate primary to make it easier to defeat Democrat Senator Jon Tester and win back the Senate majority.

A bill moving through the statehouse would change the structure of the election from the party primary system currently in place to a jungle primary in which the top two vote-getters advance to the general election regardless of party. The move would essentially box out Libertarian candidates who would likely vote Democrat ensuring a GOP victory.

If they can’t win fairly, they change the rules and cheat.

MISSOURI

State Attorney General Andrew Bailey has issued an emergency regulation regarding gender transition interventions on minors and launched a website to report allegations of malpractice at gender clinics in the state:

“It’s about protecting children for me. We’ve got to inject some sanity into this conversation. Gender is an objective reality defined by biology, in the same way that gravity is an objective reality. It is unhealthy to deny objective reality.”

He really only cares about cis gender children, to be fair. Trans kids are less than.

FLORIDA

As happens in fascist states, the rules are changed to enable the fascist to do as they please.

This week the Florida Senate scheduled a change via committee vote of the “Resign to Run” law.

This is certainly meant to allow Ron DeFascist to keep his job as governor should he fail in his attempt to take the White House in 2024.

ON THE UPSIDE …

SCOTUS

This week the U.S. Supreme Court refused to intervene in an ongoing case involving West Virginia’s law banning transgender girls from participating in girls’ sports teams at school. Conservative Justices Samuel Alito and the hopefully soon-to-be-impeached and removed from the bench Clarence Thomas dissented.

The court’s action came on its “shadow docket” so-called because decisions are made without full briefing or argument and decided with little or no explanation.

Some 19 states have enacted laws like West Virginia’s anti-transgender law but no appeals court has yet ruled on the question.

WISCONSIN

Last week voters gave control of the state’s highest court to liberals for the first time in 15 years after Milwaukee County Judge Janet Protasiewicz defeated former Supreme Court Justice Dan Kelly in a race that served as a referendum on the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

The tide is changing in Wisconsin; let’s hope that trend keeps moving forward.

NEW JERSEY

Democrat Governor Phil Murphy signed Executive Order No. 326 establishing New Jersey as a safe haven for gender-affirming health care by directing all state departments and agencies to protect all persons, including health care professionals and patients, against potential repercussions resulting from providing, receiving, assisting in providing or receiving, seeking, or traveling to New Jersey to obtain gender-affirming health care services.

“Across the nation, we are witnessing attacks led by certain states that seek to undermine the equality, dignity, and safety of the LGBTQIA+ community, especially transgender and non-binary youth. As leaders, our greatest responsibility is ensuring that every person we represent, regardless of their gender identity or gender expression, is entitled to respect, fairness, and freedom. We will continue to uphold these principles in New Jersey and support every person’s right to live freely and authentically by making our state a safe haven for those seeking or providing gender-affirming health care.”

Finally at least one safe haven for our trans brothers and sisters.

Pay attention … vote … speak up … vote … because if we don’t all stand together one day all of this country will be like Florida and Tennessee and Missouri and Idaho, and the GOP and the traitors come for us all.

A Tale Of Two Restaurants

Last week, out actor Drew Droege and his date were dining at El Compadre in Los Angeles before heading out to a show and felt the sting of homophobia with their meal:

“I went on a really nice date. With a really sad, disgusting, hateful moment in the middle. We had our arms around each other and kissed a few times. A manager approached our table and said something to the [effect] of, ‘You guys can’t do that here. This is a family restaurant.’”

Droege asked if anyone in the restaurant had complained, but the manager snapped back:

“I don’t care if you’re the president of the United States, we don’t allow your behavior here.”

Droege was stunned by those words, and took it to social media:

“The chilling and pointed tone of ‘we’re a family restaurant.’ ‘We don’t allow your behavior here.’ Ever wonder why gay people often seem nervous? Why do we walk faster? Why do we work so hard to please others and be good little citizens in this world?”

After Droege’s post, which tagged El Compadre, the restaurant posted a statement on Instagram, which they later deleted:

“We have read all of your comments and concerns, and we are looking into what happened Monday night at our Echo Park location. While we work to learn more, we want to make it clear we stand with the LGBTQ community and hold no space for intolerance, hate, or unjust treatment of our beloved guests regardless of race, ethnicity, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, disability, or status. We were built off of the core value to do everything with love, and we will do what it takes to continue to warmly welcome any and every guest into a safe community. Please give us time to seek out what happened, gather more information, and take appropriate action. We will update you soon.”

But by Wednesday night, I guess the restaurant had investigated and posted this message:

Droege says he has never been “asked not to show love in public”  though, like all of us, he’s dealt with homophobia all his life; still, he thought that a display of affection in Los Angeles was “a safe thing to do.” And he received all kinds of support since coming forward with the story from actors Matt Bomer, Tuc Watkins, and Leslie Grossman, writer Michael Ausiello, and others who posted messages of support which makes Droege feel a little better:

“Given all this support, I do feel safer and supported. This was one a**hole. This was not the entire restaurant. This is not our city.”

On the other hand … in the middle of America …

In September, award-winning restauranteur Chef Dave Heide closed Liliana’s Restaurant, his popular New Orleans-style restaurant in Madison, Wisconsin. But fear not, the restaurant opened back up this month, after Heidi rebranded the establishment in honor of his recently transitioned son.

Ollie’s Madison is now open for business. In addition to the newly renamed Ollie’s Madison, Heide also owns Saint Charles Station and the non-profit caterer Little John’s, all which are named for his children. Heide says that although COVID changed the restaurant business and inspired the reboot, the primary reason to rebuild was his son Ollie:

“My kiddo doesn’t go by the name that’s on the restaurant anymore. They don’t use that name. They go by a different name. As a dad who loves their kid, to have their deadname on my shirt every day when I come home and their deadname on their restaurant … that’s part of it.”

Heide reopened the restaurant on Ollie’s first birthday, after announcing his son’s transition on social media in December 2020:

“I wanted everyone to meet someone you already know. I introduce you to Ollie Joy Heide. You may have known them as Liliana in the past, but now you may call them Ollie. I am so proud of this human. I have known them as Lily for their whole life, and I look forward to many adventures with this amazing human and having a million new memories with them. I love you Ollie, no matter your name, your gender, or your pronouns. You will always be my kiddo that I am proud of and love.”

And that’s how restaurants are done, and that’s especially how parenting is done.

Welcome out, Ollie.

El Compadre  Ollie's Madison

The Bad and The Good ... Monday April 11, 2022

These really are the easiest posts to compile, because, literally, there are dumb people everywhere ... but that's what makes it so frightening. So this week, I decided to include some Good News as sort of a palette cleanser for the crazies …

ALABAMA

GOP Governor Kay Ivey has signed two anti-LGBTQ+ bills into law, a day after the state Legislature passed the legislation along party lines on the last day of the legislative session.

SB184 criminalizes gender-affirming surgeries for trans youth.

HB322, is Alabama’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill, which also only allows people in schools to use the bathroom of the gender listed on their birth certificate.

Alabama and Kay Ivey and the GOP hate LGBTQ+ people.

Washington DC

Six GOP Congress members opposed a bill passed last week that encouraged efforts to document and preserve evidence of Russian war crimes during the war in Ukraine.

They don’t want to see evidence of war crimes because they don’t want to make Putin angry.

The six are, no surprise: Andy Biggs, Warren Davidson, Paul Gosar, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Tom Massie, and Scott Perry, and they are all  members of the House Freedom Caucus.

Vote. Them. Out.

Oklahoma

The GOP-controlled House gave final legislative approval last week to a bill that would make performing an abortion a felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison. The bill will be sent to GOP Governor Kevin Stitt who says he will sign any anti-abortion bill that comes to his desk.

Governor Stitt, who contracted COVID in July 2020, announced a statewide day of fasting and prayer against COVID in December 2020.

On his inauguration day in January 2019, he declared that the primary mission of his administration would be to “bring people to Jesus.”

In April 2021, he signed into law a bill that legalizes running over protesters.

Cuz that’s what Jesus would do.

Tennessee

House and Senate Republicans are voting on legislation this week that would bypass the Supreme Court’s 2015 Obergefell ruling that finds same-sex couples have the same rights and responsibilities to marriage as their different-sex peers.

The bill creates all-age marriages classified as common-law “one man and one woman” unions while mandating the state defend in court any clerk who decides to not issue a marriage license for any reason.

Yes, The Gays can’t marry, but adults can marry children in Tennessee.

And now for some Good News …

KENTUCKY

Democratic Governor Andy Beshear vetoed a Republican-priority measure that would ban abortions in Kentucky after 15 weeks of pregnancy and regulate the dispensing of abortion pills because he questioned the constitutionality of the bill and criticized it for not including exceptions for pregnancies caused by rape or incest.

As an example, he said that a girl impregnated by her father—raped by her father—would have to notify him of her intent to get an abortion.

State lawmakers will have a chance to override the veto when they reconvene next week for the final two days of this year’s 60-day legislative session.

COLORADO

The left-leaning state has just enacted a law that enshrines a woman’s right to have an abortion in the state.

The Reproductive Health Equity Act affirms that pregnant people in Colorado have the right to continue a pregnancy and give birth or have an abortion, and it blocks public entities from denying or restricting that right.

Colorado joins 15 other states and Washington, D.C., in codifying the right to have an abortion either prior to a fetus's viability or throughout a pregnancy in state law.

CALIFORNIA

The California Senate Judiciary Committee passed SB 1327—legislation authored by Democratic Senator Robert Hertzberg and sponsored by Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom—to limit the spread of assault weapons and ghost guns.

Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision last December allowing Texas’s ban on most abortion services to remain in place, Governor Newsom directed his Administration to work with the Legislature to propose a measure, modeled on the structure of Texas’s abortion law, to enable private citizens to hold the gun industry accountable through civil litigation for the proliferation of illegal firearms.

SB 1327 allows private citizens to bring civil actions against any person who manufactures, distributes, transports, imports into the state or sells assault weapons, .50 BMG rifles, ghost guns, or ghost gun kits.

WISCONSIN

Kelly Ruh, a Wisconsin official who two years ago posed as a presidential elector for Thing 45 in an to overturn the 2020 election, lost her re-election.

Ruh sought a second term as an alderperson in De Pere but lost to Pamela Gantz. She received a subpoena from Congress earlier this year over her involvement in Stop-the-Steal efforts.

Please note that the Good News, the sensible news, comes from Democrat-run states, and Democratic Governors. That speaks volumes.

Get educated and save yourselves from The Stupids.

And CAST A GODDAMNED VOTE!
