Penalizing Drag Shows With $10k Fines in Texas For Being "Erotic, Abnormal And Shameful"

 


Community notes real quick:


1) Isaiah has at least one comic going up in a few hours.  One? He has two.  Some of his comics he takes to the community newsletters.  He thinks one of the two may need that.  I'm fine with it going up here.  He's calling out a transphobe and I don't feel we need to be caring or kind to hate merchants.  He calls the hate merchant "titless."  I have no problem with that.  I've noted her appearance as well -- and how this 'girl' trashing transgendered people looks like she herself spent too many years on steroids.  "Titless"?  Not a problem for me.  He's going to sound off a few other people.  So we'll have one comic for sure but we may have two.


2) In the gina & krista round-robin three weeks ago, there was a question of whether Ava and I would tackle the Brooke Shield's 'documentary.'  We said no.  We've had to change our minds on that.  We'd still prefer not to write about it (we know and like Brooke) but everything that's wrong with that awful 'documentary' goes to what's wrong with American right now.  So we'll be addressing that in a piece that we'll start writing in about four hours.  It may be up on Sunday.  It'll probably go up Monday night.
