Aya Damon’s Way

On Saturday, Baltimore city officials formally renamed a portion of 21st Street read as Aya Damon's Way to recognize the important contributions of Baltimore's safe haven founder, Aya Damon's, a longtime LGBTQ plus activist and community organizer. Damon's organization, which was founded in 2018, provides members of the trans community with critical resources like housing, food, and medical care.

Aya Damon's has been a tireless advocate for transgender rights and has worked tirelessly to provide a safe space and resources for transgender individuals in our city. The organization said this honor is well-deserved and we are thrilled to see her contributions recognized in such a meaningful way. That's amazing that they named a portion of the street after her and she's a beautiful black trans woman.

And I cannot wait for the more of the beautiful things that she does for her city and that portion of America. That's cool. That's cute. It was a vibe. I feel like she's done more for people than a lot of my politicians. Maybe. What she said, she did more than probably the politician and the congressman and the mayor in Houston, which is fucking terrible. And these motherfuckers that we vote in and do all that, man, it's ridiculous. But they do a lot of stuff for the community. Yeah.

So that's good. And she did more for what Washington, and she put one in Washington, D.C. So I'm like, shit, she doing more than the Senate and the Congress doing in fucking D.C. Great. That's awesome. But that was amazing to hear. Well deserved.

Same-Sex Behaviors in Animals

Same-sex sexual behaviors among animals is widespread, but under-reported. Study shows, this is from them, a new report published in the Science Journal, PLOS One, found that even though animal scientists often observe same-sex sexual behavior between primates and other mammals, they seldom publish research about it.

Interesting. Though there's a common perception that same-sex sexual behavior between animals is very rare, 77% of the 65 researchers who responded to the survey reported observing said behavior. However, only 48% of them had collected data on it, and only 19% published their findings. Researchers said that the dearth of published reports of same-sex sexual behavior may be explained, at least in part, by the perception that subject is rare and difficult to study.

That the subject okay researcher says that the researcher said that the dearth of published reports by the of sex same-sex sexual behavior may be explained in least in part by the perception that the subject is rare and difficult to study indeed most researchers surveyed said that the lack of data collection and published a publication on same-sex sexual behavior was due to the anecdotal nature of their observations or because it was not a research priority the authors note

that no respondents reported discomfort or societal concerns at their university or field site related to reporting same-sex sexual behavior. However, Karen Anderson, the first author of the study and graduate student in anthropology at the University of Toronto, told The Guardian that the idea that same-sex sexual behavior is rare has propped up the narrative that such behavior is unnatural in humans. I think that the record should be corrected, she told the publication.

One thing I think we can say for certain is that same-sex sexual behavior is widespread and natural in the animal kingdom. The researchers hypothesized that the same-sex sexual behavior could also be understudied due to funding bias. If sociosexual behavior is not a research priority of funding agencies, researchers who are otherwise interested in studying same-sex sexual behavior may be limited in their ability to do so, the researchers wrote.

Josh Davis, a researcher at the Natural History Museum in London, additionally told The Guardian that while 1,500 species have been observed showcasing homosexual behavior, this is certainly an underestimate because it's seen in almost every branch of the evolutionary tree spiders squids and monkeys there's a growing suggestion it's normal and natural in almost every species davis told the publication adding it's probably more rare to be a purely heterosexual sexual species oh

boom bitch thank you gay agenda is complete everyone's gay everything is gay now i was it was i don't know if you guys ever it's this podcast going around with these two uh weak women white women and i think they used to be like i don't know they're famous somehow but they was talking about how they were there was a video of two humpback whales fucking in the ocean and it was gay sex it was two males and they was just talking about like you know basically re

reiterating what you just stated in these statistics this has been going on forever so for people to be saying that the gay agenda gay agenda the gay agenda right the gay agenda.

Is being forced upon us no it's not it's been it's been here before us it's gonna be here during us and it's gonna be here after us like it's no fucking agenda like it's it's it is what it is and it was like you know what and that just validated what them white women was talking about, that's the first and last time i validate some white women yeah.

Done with this show i mean yeah duh it makes sense like like it's only natural there's gonna be variation in like sexual attraction and all those things i i've heard a lot of species before this there were some i didn't know that engaged in like gay sex um i knew a lot of species who already were engaging in gay sex so it's natural i think that but people aren't gonna listen but i think it's good to get that validation but it was really interesting in

hearing you read the article i just wish they would have said it it'd be like hey like the world is homophobic so we didn't study this because we thought it was rare right so like our idea that this is rare makes it not not worth studying which is just based in homophobia.

California Legislature’s Ban

You know and i think it's acknowledging that like that's what makes homophobia like so systematic because of things like that systematic homophobia like we get a race we don't have representation things because we're not seen as natural or as within the primary the what they perceive you know i also feel like it's like when they see that they're just like oh they don't know what they're doing and so it doesn't mean anything yeah and they brush it off like that but

it's like i'm pretty sure that the animal would know what's like the difference between its own genders right or i would assume so they're smart right so like like i think it would know that it's fucking like not of whatever the vagina of the other animal is right i don't know i don't know i don't know enough about animals psychology i know they're smart as hell so i know they ain't dumb as fuck i mean you do it gotta be one of the other right there you go animals proving us right

there you go we're natural that's why we love mother nature mother the nature did y'all hear about california what about us well the california legislature erupted in chaos before it passed a ban on parental notification of gender change requests from tk to 12 student to 12 grade students if signed by the governor the bill would render moot the parental notification policies.

That have been adopted by many california school districts After the California Department of Education issued guidance that schools should not disclose student gender-related record change requests to parents, some California school districts adopted rules requiring parents to be notified if their children request to officially change their pronouns. Go by a different name, or use facilities or school programs for children of the opposite gender.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta responded by supporting lawsuits against the school districts and the current bill in question, AB 1955. AB 1955, introduced by Assemblymember Chris Ward, Democrat from San Diego, would ban parental notification policies and expand resources for LGBTQ plus students and families.

This comes from a growing national attack on LGBTQ people and particular transgender individuals rising since 2020 with several California school districts and other states enacting policies to explicitly compel teachers to tell parents if their child identifies as transgender policies known as forced outings. I mean, that's a win, right? I mean, it is, but it's also like teachers in schools.

You didn't get shit to do with you. you there to educate it says sle also noticed school employees have a duty and the power to protect students if they feel notification would place the student in danger at home, right but you don't give the motherfuckers the same duty for the motherfucking shooter going there.

Thumbs up california i mean yeah i mean i don't think parents should be notified of these things because like if the kid is hiding it then there has to be a reason right there's a reason upon on safety but the hard part is like i feel then a school should step in or something should be their support for this kid you need to figure out like why they're not telling their parents but that's the hard part because then a kid can't go into therapy without parental consent that's true.

Because like i think like this is a little band-aid for a situation but i can understand why people don't like it imagine like this is a very important thing to know about your child and you're not notified i think a parent should also reflect on why they're not being exactly.

Right like but like you can't see your child going through changes yeah like so what are you so occupied with that you don't know that this is going on with your child so you're not a part of your child's life yeah yeah you know what i mean yeah and i think like i think what could be a nice little remedy for this is like you start educating kids and students about gender or about sexuality because like the only reason there people want a notification is or

people hide not tell their parents is because they're scared because like they don't think their parents are gonna accept them they don't think their parents have the knowledge so like if you can teach everyone and let everyone know that this is natural you know all of the last thing we read you know right then like there's gonna be less rejection you know or nobody's bringing up the fact that parents can be abusive as fuck to their children yeah and like a lot of times children

can go abused for years without anybody even being notified without no police intervention yeah without no family intervention with it just being normal and like people just accepting it and until that kid is like.

Can get the hell out of the house and the abuse can continue you know what i mean so it's like you're gonna notify a parent that might not like this and like shit could happen and like i don't know it feels so stupid just like restating the obvious all the time i mean it's like we are pretty much like a broken record because it's just like every state will come out with a ban or an approval or some shit and it's just like dude like what the fuck is so much stupid shit going on

in the world that this this is your top priority you know yeah but this one is a good one but in this in the same sense like yeah mind your business yeah i'm gonna say like this things like this distract or like yeah distract or deter from like really looking at what is the underlining problem which is homophobia right which is the patriarchy all these things because like let's say this this kid is in danger at home right so the parents doesn't get notified but eventually this parent's gonna

see something right they're gonna hear something right like we can't be ignorant about that and then okay and this was a dangerous home okay and then you call cps so the kid can get support then the kid gets taken up by cps if it's abuse and we just read an article last week yeah about how queer kids are treated in cps right so it's like this you're not addressing the systematicness of the discrimination with bills like this. I think it's great.

I think it's a start, but like it's, you're still not making the whole environment safer and better. Yeah. Correct. Crazy shit. It's always something. I feel like I did always see when I was like going to school, like there was always like a little paragraph in like the dress code where it's like boys cannot wear makeup.

At my school they had that like specified and see and that's fucking crazy too like why do you see like and this is where it comes down to like society putting these trying to put these norms on people like if we can get away or get rid of that shit because there's a lot of people who would just like there are straight men who would probably like to wear a fucking caftan or muumuu or like a fucking skirt and not say like i want to fuck a dude like cannot can my

balls hang you know i'm saying like but society puts shit into our fucking heads they're like oh like that's so that's feminine that's masculine that's this that's that who gives a fuck just live your life and that's all that fucking matters but here we go we got the the left wing, the right wing, the fucking conservative motherfucker. Everybody wants to say what they want from another motherfucker.

And it's annoying. I mean, it's easier to tell a smaller group of people don't wear makeup versus telling the larger group of people stop being a dick to people who want to wear makeup, right? One's way easier than the other, unfortunately. Teach one person to shut the fuck up. It's too hard to wrangle these bitches. I was going to tell you queer. But I remember, it's funny because I had not thought about that in so long.

And in my head, I can actually, I don't know if I'm making it up or if I can see an image in my head. But I feel like when I saw that thing that said boys cannot wear makeup, the only things that I thought about it when I saw it were like, because it was middle school. And then I would think, well, what boys are wearing makeup in my head? And then I'm like, do boys wear makeup as a joke? And then I'm like, no. And I'm like, well, sometimes like gay boys wear makeup in my head.

And then I'm like, but I don't wear makeup. And I'm like, but that's like the far end of the spectrum in my head. Like these boys are wearing makeup. So they're like.

Super deviant to the fact that you have to like make a rule about these people yeah which is weird because i think once people start pushing what the acceptable norm of expression it makes people think it's like oh maybe i could do that right and this starts bringing this this awareness of how things are unfair or how you're restricted right like i think you know like i think if you you have a certain reaction from something you should probably reflect and and think about how how limited

your worldview is and and why it's not allowing something else that doesn't fit into it you know all those people aren't about self-reflection but yeah let's see this is another one from the bbc.com this is from a foreign country and this is what they're reporting about us louisiana orders every classroom to display the ten commandments every public school classroom in louisiana i'll just do it in my english accent since it's

from the bbc now it's appropriate since apparently i keep wanting to do it every public school classroom in louisiana has been ordered to display a poster of the ten commandments a move that civil liberty groups say they will.

Louisiana’s Ten Commandments Requirement

Well, you hit it. But opponents say... The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, known as the Establishment Clause, says that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Yeah, but we're respecting this religion a lot. The state law requires that a poster include the sacred text, large, easy, readable font on a poster that is 11 inches by 14 inches, and the commandments be the central focus of the display.

The commandments will also be shown alongside a four-paragraph context statement, which will describe how the directives were a prominent part of American public education for almost three centuries. What? No. The posters must be on display in all classrooms, receiving state funding by 2025, but no state funding is being offered to pay for the posters themselves.

So y'all don't get on fucking youtube and print the motherfuckers off y'all want them so bad fucking hilarious Louisiana get it together damn wow similar laws have recently been proposed by other republican-led states including Texas Oklahoma and Utah four civil liberties groups have confirmed that they plan a legal challenge highlighting the religious diversity of Louisiana's schools the law was blatantly unconstitutional set a joint statement from the american civil liberties

union the american civil liberties union of louisiana americans united for separation of church and state and the freedom from religion foundation but the bill's author republican state lawmaker dodie horton has spoken of the importance of returning a moral code to classrooms What the fuck? She was quoted saying, it's like hope is in the air everywhere.

Okay. As the bill was rubber stamped by the governor, they have been pre- In its ruling, the Supreme Court said the requirement that the Ten Commandments be posted had no secular legislative purpose and was plainly religious in nature, noting that the commandments made references to worshiping God. Like, girl, sis. Like, they must think motherfuckers are quite silly. Like, get out your own ass. I would love to see something similar from another religion happen. Right. And just see how fucking.

I'll get that off my wall. i mean you can't even look at a pride flag without it discriminating against you right you can put the 10 commandments how does that not discriminate against me, if i have to sit in my classroom and look at this it doesn't matter because it doesn't impact one religion yeah one race but it's funny have you seen have you seen like uh satanists who like love to troll christian people where like they're they wanted us i think they want to put the 10 Ten

Commandments somewhere was already there. And so the Satanists were petitioning to get a statue of Satan because they're like, well, you have these Ten Commandments. So you need to equally represent other religions. And so they took the Ten Commandments statue down so they didn't have to put up a statue of Satan. Do they take that Satan on the road and do that to every fucking city? They should. They fucking should. Take the Satan on the road.

But yeah i think okay like if you want to be christian like that's your choice it's your decision but don't stuff it down my throat don't force your lifestyle.

Constitutional Crisis in Louisiana

That's interesting i mean it's not going to pass right like it's louisiana i'm quite sure it will but like people are suing like it's clearly unconstitutional right like i think that if If like something were to pass in a state like this, like it would create a constitutional crisis because you're legit having a state like disregarding the Constitution. I mean, I'm down. I think we need a whole new system. A whole new world.

And I'm talking about not the ones that they won't. It's about their new world. I'm talking about like, you know what? Love and live, damn it. Like a new world order. But yeah it's interesting we'll see what happens i feel like we're more probably going to a new world disorder because it doesn't seem like new world mayhem is working for anybody.

Nikki Hiltz’s Olympic Qualification

Obviously these republicans have no power that's what they're saying at all ever, y'all got any more yeah but i think like we've talked about this like these bills are not necessarily about like passability it feels like but it's more about like creating fear and it's about creating yeah yeah just fear and this otherness for people just letting people know hey you're not welcomed here you know they don't want us hey but yeah so did y'all

hear about that That nice trans non-binary runner Nikki Hiltz dedicated record-breaking Olympic qualifier to all the LGBTQ folks. Nikki isn't just breaking records, they're breaking barriers. The out transgender non-binary runner qualified for the Paris Olympics on Sunday after completing the 1500 meter race at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials with a record time of three minutes and fifty five point thirty three seconds.

Hiltz was in fourth place with 300 meters left before they suddenly accelerated past their competition, cutting down their previous personal best by four seconds. This is a quote from Nikki. I told myself I'm not going to think about all the love and support I have until 100 meters to go. Hiltz told reporters afterwards. And then at that moment, you can let it fill you up and push you to the finish line. That's exactly what I did. I think that's what brought me home.

Hiltz won their title at 2023 U.S. Track and Field Outdoor National Championship in a similar fashion, rocketing from third to first place in the last 300 meters. Their victory also made them the organization's first non-binary national champion. Hills came out transgender and non-binary in 2021 in a post to Instagram. They said at the time, hi, I'm Nikki and I'm transgender. That means I don't identify with the gender I was assigned at birth.

The word I use currently to describe my gender is nine non-binary the best way I can explain my gender is as fluid Hiltz told NBC Sports in an interview after the race that they were also motivated by the love and support they received from LGBTQ plus communities saying this is bigger than me it's the last day of pride month I wanted to run this one for my community and yeah all the the lgbtq folks he'll said you guys brought me

home that last 100 meters i could just feel the love and support and to you nikki congratulations and we will continue to ride for you go sports yeah because i was like i can't three minutes and 55.33 seconds please my knee would uh i would uh, trickle down when the gun popped. Alright, so Nikki, once again, congratulations. Bring, well, I would say bring the gold home, but you and Paris, bitch. Congratulations on making it to it. Congrats, queen, or king, or royalty. Oh. Congrats, royalty.

Is that it for Quick Tea? i think so i'm not thirsty anymore i think these queens have deserved a break.

Project 2025: Threat to LGBTQ+ Rights

So today, we're just going to get into it. We're talking about this Project 2025 that everybody else is talking about, that you probably already heard to death about. But we're going to talk about it. Because it's kind of scary. Do any of you queens know about this thing? Only thing I really know about Project 2025 is that it's, you know, a proposed presidential transition project that is composed of four pillars.

It's like i don't know that i'm just reading it but i feel like it's just like a a way for the president to turn our society into a dictatorship basically i believe you're correct fascism fascism 101 you know when i told was telling everybody back in 2016 that trump is just playing from the fucking nazi handbook everybody was like extreme i'm like you're so.

Unread so let's just get into it so i asked the chat gpt basically what's going on with i said basically told chat chat gpt summarize to me what the fuck is going on with this lgbtq and the project 2025 so basically the republican project 2025 proposes several significant changes to LGBTQ plus rights, focusing particularly on rolling back federal protections and promoting conservative ideology. Here are some of the key points. One, eliminating federal protections.

Project 2025 aims to remove federal protections for LGBTQ plus individuals, including stripping terms related to gender and sexual identity from federal regulations and legislation. This includes stopping all research related to gender identity unless it promotes conformity to one's sex at birth, which is akin to conversion there. What do you guys think about that so far?

I mean, that's definitely not good, right? I mean, because, like, we're, we, we, I think there's a lot to, like, be studied and learn about, like, gender and sexuality still. And I think especially related to, like, gender-affirming care, because I think the hard part is, like, if there's no research and science behind things, like, insurance companies aren't going to pay for things, they're not going to cover things. So I think that that is, like, could really impact the trans community.

Impact on the Trans Community

But like everybody right so i mean because i asked it also what what will happen for african americans under this project so it's basically talking about like law crackdown and shit like that we'll get into that one later the plan suggests centralizing law enforcement power under the presidency which could involve using the military for domestic law enforcement under the insurrection act if they strip us of our legal protections that means we can't sue anymore right because

that was really the only thing that was these laws right as like you can just sue when you're being homophobic or transphobic because nobody ever really stopped being homophobic and transphobic yeah when these laws were around right right you were just allowed to sue the person and win basically yeah so i guess no more suing no more suing and winning so i guess if you you have any like grievances sue the fuck out of your company now and then take the money to another country do you think

like if you want a lawsuit on your like identity status and this is like all goes down like do you think like they would make you reallocate your money like take it back no i'm very doubtful because i don't yeah i don't think they could do that but in the future sure you wouldn't be able to do this so like the, lawsuits against like restaurants or like the caterers like that wouldn't be able to go through.

Broad Impact on Identity Research

It's also, like, all identities, right? So, like, we're focusing on gender, but, like, it's going to impact research on women. Oh, yeah. You know, like, and, you know, there's... Reproductive rights and all that shit. Yeah, reproductive rights, everything, yeah. Right, and anything that's, like, related to, like, women only. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Let's see. Also, criminalization and regulation.

Criminalization and Regulation

The project seeks to criminalize being transgender and eliminate federal support for LGBTQ plus programs. This includes proposed actions like classifying educators and librarians who provide LGBTQ plus materials as sex offenders and shutting down telecommunications firms that distribute what they term as transgender ideology.

Concerns about Libraries and Books

Okay, so one, do librarians in the library, are they the ones who are like owning these books or like having the books come in and like being like, I'm the book getter?

Like why are they blaming the librarian so why are they in the library usually librarians that's over libraries do have so it's almost like a business so you have somebody that's over public libraries and they and the board come up with what books and things are able to be in the library and then they can also define if that book can be either rented out i mean like rented out or it's a like resource book that has to stay inside the facility so it's

just like yeah so basically they could necessarily make up and decide on what can go in here or into that library particularly so my thought is like okay like how many libraries for one are currently having gay books and two like I feel like, Do they have a list? Like, how do you implement, like, this? Like, do you have to go find, do you have to track down every library and look up what every book is being sold there? No, because I'm quite sure it's just basically, like, because most of these

books and some of these articles have been in time for years. Right. Before this. So, like, let's say there's a. So, it's just basic common knowledge. So, let's just say there's, like, the trans book that they had in the shelf since, like, 2005.

Yeah. and it's just there collecting dust nobody even knows it's there like how do you get that book out of there then you have to probably do sanctions and regulations and have the librarians physically pull it out because like i'm sure this is all all categorized already right like there's a dewey decimal system like so everything that is in the library is probably accounted for and assigned things and it's probably all digitized now at this point where it's

just easy access to To kind of let me search the keyword trans or keyword gay or LGBTQ, you know? And, like, that can probably pop up. And now, since now that you have. But, okay. So, this is also, like, a new idea. So, let's say they implement, like, these new laws or whatever. So, ground from the day one.

Immediate Impact of Enactment

Let's say it just enacts, right? So, automatically, you just go to jail. Like, day one, you go to jail. Like, you have no time to readjust. I mean, who knows? Because you would think that that wouldn't happen but it's gonna be if he gets elected there's no telling what he's gonna do and if he's the president he's gonna give himself the authority to do what the fuck he can do yeah so it's basically like. If you get a new boss, and that boss was like, you know what?

This whole team is gone. But you still have to go through the basic Congress, right? And get these little things passed anyways, right?

Establishment of Presidential Power

Well, I think what this Project 2025 is establishing is giving more power to the president. Yeah, but what I'm saying is, I feel like, wouldn't the Democrats who are already holding seats not let these things pass?

Maybe but like the issue is always that like there's not enough people or like there's a deadlock or something right i don't know but i don't even think he's gonna even is i'm thinking he's trying to change the whole concept of how we think our legal system and our government work he's changing the whole concept fuck the senate and the house he's i think he's coming in saying that like he's in the mindset it's like they work for

me now like they don't work for the people they work for the president now they always work for the president technically but not necessarily because the president don't even work for us like now technically they're working for all these corporations and shit yeah so and that's what trump i feel is being driven by.

Because one thing i do remember him saying like oh like i'm going to change the first day i'm getting rid of oh yeah he said something about like the department of education i'm gonna get all those motherfuckers out of here, all this, that and the other.

Dismantling Federal Agencies

I'm like, dude, like there's a lot of shit you should be worrying about instead of the Department of Education. But, you know, I saw that that part of this plan is to get rid of, like, certain federal agencies. And I'm OK with that. And here's why. Like, I do not get a say in who's in charge of these agencies. You're right. And I should, as a citizen of this country, should be able to say who is the head of Department of Education, who's the head of transportation.

Like, we don't get to decide that. Literally, the president gets elected and then the president puts those people in power and in leadership without our say.

Yeah and we're just crossing our fingers that he is aligned to our values which he's not you know so like fuck it like get rid of these things like i don't get a say so it doesn't really matter like to me i never got to say see yeah i feel like that the president should be working for us and we should be and we should employ i mean they work for us yeah so just like how you said we We should vote for Supreme Court justice. We should vote for all these motherfuckers. Yeah, exactly. I agree.

And then you then, now that we voted who we want in those positions under you, president, then now you can lead them motherfuckers. Yeah.

Politicizing Positions of Power

And then also it's like, I think those positions should not be, but this is difficult, should not be politicized, right? It shouldn't be Democrat, Republican, because people are going to be holding to their ideology.

Ineffectiveness of Federal Agencies

And it's like also these head these agencies federal agencies they don't really do anything look at what is it the the epa right detroit hasn't had water in how long right you know like how many water crises are there and like what are they doing they're doing nothing nothing what happened with transportation with the train derailments nothing like another chemical spill bill like there is so the fda and even the department of education each state is different each like each state is teaching

something different and that's problematic there's not a uniform educational system so like what the hell are you doing anyways.

Fuck you that's true shit it's just like and then like even like i feel like he's just they're just trying to go over everything like i looked at the of course the board of this project 25 and you can already tell who the fuck it is nothing but like crusty looking white motherfucking cis gender white males probably christian probably fucking christians and then like and then even like they They were saying like, oh, like pornography,

like we're going to get rid of pornography because that's just as addictive as drugs. There's that in the other. I'm like, well, see, y'all seeing these motherfuckers who's falling behind Trump. You know, you're all busting them nuts at night, fucking jacking off because don't know bitches, won't you? And then now when you voted for this motherfucker, now this Project 25 is going in. Now you're always looking like, oh, oh, like you got to get it together.

Like he has so much shit that he's trying to maneuver and get rid of. When it don't really that shit don't even matter yeah we got a whole lot of shit to be worried about just i mean you gotta ramp up your base with some kind of hatred i guess yeah or fear, i mean shit yeah you know what you should put it on motherfucking fear of climate change hoe.

That's what the fuck we should be scared of yeah but like okay i am down like i think that there should be regulations and stuff like that but like obviously our system right now is not regulating anything like so much is happening so i think like there needs to be some accountability from these agencies in order to do something and enact and actually help their people and right now they're not functioning at well they're probably functioning the way

they're designed but they function to help people that's how it was designed but it stopped helping people when they fucking was mandated into like these bureaus and shit in these departments yeah, fuckers i don't know Fuh.

Goodbye pornography that would be funny i think that no they would never get what they would never get rid of it they were like no we were just kidding we just meant like gay pornography and trans pornography yeah and that trans people are pornography that's the only thing we meant but men fucking women that's different that's a miracle natural porn that's natural porn that we know that's now they want now they care about sex education like that's sex

education but what else is there i heard somebody say that they were what were they saying, that the only that the only class that's allowed to display pornography is sex ed and i'm like what the fuck they don't display pornography i know right they're not fucking showing you how to fuck they just show you body parts they don't even show the dick going in the pussy at all yeah they just show like the most like scientific looking penis and vagina yeah exactly like hello are you

people fucking dumb as fuck that's one other thing is like these people are living in a completely different reality or that not that they're just making shit the fuck up yeah anyways.

Military Service and Gender Dysphoria

Number three what else is there proposes reversing policies that allow transgender gender individuals to serve in the military citing that gender dysphoria is incompatible with military service i mean that's not that's messed up like not letting people join the military if they want to i know i've had gender dysphoria it's like if you're saying that trans doesn't exist then neither does gender dysphoria bitch.

Disputing Lack of Scientific Evidence

You guys don't make sense. Also, see, the project plans to help Medicare and Medicaid coverage for gender reassignment surgery and other gender-affirming care, arguing that there is insufficient scientific evidence to support such interventions. See? Yeah. And they're going to stop the research to justify that. But it's like, girl, there is sufficient.

Mm-hmm. they've been doing gender affirming surgery since the 50s like come on y'all get it together there's plenty of data plenty of research and there would have been a lot more if y'all weren't being transphobic yeah and then like even with the dei like oh yeah inclusion and what's the.

Equity and there you go but like that just don't hinder black folks that hinders everybody because it's gonna be nothing but cis white gendered i mean cis gendered white males trying to run every fucking thing but now you got these motherfuckers that don't know shit and we're like oh this down in the earth like what the fuck like this is gonna interfere with everybody it's just it's i i just want scotty to beam me up at this point take me

on the star trek voyage but also like my other question is like like what do we have to do what does the government have to do what's the president have to do to where my rights are not on the line every election right like why can't that just be done like why why why is there always feel like there's a reversal each time the president changes hands and changes political parties right from democrats republic there's always like a pullback on on laws

that become more conservative and then Then we get a Democrat and we get a little bit of liberalism sprinkled in to keep their fan base happy, you know? So it's like, why is there constant back and forth?

Ensuring Long-Term Rights Protection

What do we need to do to, like, ratify my right to protect it regardless?

Exactly like do that like even when even let's say let's say joe biden wins again then another four years passes by it's the same shit again yeah then it becomes project 2029 exactly and i think this is why this is why i also have a problem with this like yes this is scary but it's also like this is fuel for for democrats right like republicans use fear democrats also use fear right it's kind of like blow a blow get a glow vote vote blue no matter who right you know it's like this no matter who

it is it's better than trump right but it's like also you bring in this democrat they do nothing like what are they really doing you know we need to switch this shit up our goddamn selves and it starts with the people i mean we gotta put somebody in there or vote for somebody that will make that change because if we keep putting our shit in the same ain't basket and the basket keep getting fucked up we just ain't gonna come out on top any goddamn way so

we might as well switch something up to see what else we can do or how it would go. I feel like was taraji the main the main reason why everybody's talking about it right now right yeah that's what about project 2025 like at the bet words she one of her speech was talking about project 25 and people to go research oh yeah yeah yeah yeah i mean i've heard about it I've heard about it before then but it's like this shit is like.

Because I feel like yeah I heard about it before too and I was just like yeah sounds like more of the same shit that we always thought about but then I feel like. When Biden really took a shit on that debate, then they're like, go hard on the 2025 shit. Scare the fuck out of them. Yeah. Get those votes. And I think it's working.

Relying on Fear in Politics

Well, that's what they always do, right? They have to rely on the fear of, like, it could be worse, right? But it's also, we vote you in, and it's the same. Like, what are you doing to, like, make it better? And they say these, like, beautiful speeches, but, like, speeches don't save lives, y'all.

Yeah. like so with all the things that are like trying to be revoked at like every minute right it just feels like they're still gonna be revoked even if you do win still though right like because even if you that even if you still win what's gonna happen in 2025 republicans are still gonna be trying to take away our fucking rights anyway yeah and it's but it's a lot of but there's a lot of other things that's happening because if he do get in office there'll be because i this is something that

i have read that there are two supreme court justice like there's no supreme court justice now that's willing to give up their seats under biden if trump wins two more supreme court justice will retire so that means that would be not only six that's already in his bag that'd be the whole motherfucker damn near get rid of the supreme court too fuck this shit right like what is this yeah it's just like everything is so many fucking dumb

shit and shit that were like if you damned if you're doing you damned if you don't so it's like you might as well just go with, in my opinion the best option for you as a human being and as a person versus Versus what, you know, like what society is saying. Well, not society, but, you know, the masses, the media. Yeah. Because they're going to run us right into the ground because they're getting paid by them motherfuckers. Mm-hmm.

I don't even want, oh, it just makes my skin itch. It makes me nauseous. I feel like, and then this, and so all three of us will go to jail because this show is gay and LGBTQ plus propaganda. So, listeners, I hope you. Come and find me. Put some money in our books. I mean, that's what this show is. This is LGBTQ plus propaganda. It is. So, I'm sorry, you guys, but we're all going to go together. Indoctrination. Which i'm fine they're going to trace your ip to you.

Thank god we're using that public wi-fi.

Media’s Role in Disseminating Lies

But but yeah i don't know it's a i was actually talking to it wasn't even my client at work but i was checking in with someone at work someone that works one of my co-workers clients and our literally our whole time talking in session was revolving around this about project 25 2025 25 and like they're concerned around like trans rights you know and it's hard because it's like, it's hard to find that balance of like i need to be aware of the

future and like what this means which makes people anxious and like it's hard because i can't i can't sit here and be like no that's just you being paranoid or like right it's okay because there's so much evidence to support this coming into being right like there's already laws trying to be passed you know so i feel like the hard part is also people are walking around pretending nothing is happening and just living life like everything's peachy keen i also hate when people report on

trump that when he lies they accept that he's lying and they're like well he said this. Which we have to like i guess but give him the better of the doubt that he's not lying you know they just don't call out that he's just lying to people or that they air they air his response his lie response and it's like why would you even air it if you know it's fucking a lie just even airing it is.

Propaganda anyways right and they justify it with the oh we're doing fact checking this under but like that shit can be removed right like raw footage can be found and show it as truth you know i think we just need to move but where because it seems like the whole goddamn world is falling apart well i think what we have to do is continue moving every four years.

And just continually move to the next woke place that's so trendy and it's taking over society we should be easy to find but i feel like california is like the most woke like oh big cities where is it here maybe portland maybe seattle new york you know chicago maybe, you know i mean honestly i do feel like we are like the promised land, not the promised land the gay promised land but I don't know because it seems like I don't hear,

Canada talking about any are they trying to do trans backtracking in Canada I don't know I could go to Canada I mean I can be a resident but that would be the next move I could still come across real quick.

LGBTQ+ Friendly Countries

No it's interesting what what other country would y'all live in i would go to canada i feel like i would go to mexico it would be like canada or belize my boyfriend would probably try to take me to guatemala okay so countries considered lgbtq plus sanctuaries offers strong legal protections and social acceptance for lgbtq plus individuals some of the most lgbtq plus friendly countries in 2024 include iceland land.

Recognized for its vibrant gay scene and supportive legal framework, Iceland offers same-sex marriage, anti-discrimination laws, and inclusive sex education. Belgium, known for its progressive stance, Belgium has legalized same-sex marriage adoption and provides legal gender recognition and military service rights for LGBTQ individuals. Is Amsterdam in Belgium? I think that's... I don't know. Denmark, a pioneer in LGBTQ plus rights.

Writes Denmark legalized same-sex unions in 1989 and marriage in 2012. Also has comprehensive anti-discrimination laws and hate crime protections. Spain. Number four. Even though they fucking have been the ones to give us all this homophobia. I'm sorry, they have. Spain has strong anti-discrimination laws and vibrant LGBTQ plus culture, particularly in cities like Madrid and Barcelona.

Same-sex marriage has been legal since 2005. five number five canada renowned for its inclusive policies canada offers legal protections against discrimination and hate crimes and has legalized same-sex marriage since 20 since 2005 right i said canada i would visit all these places or live there so hopefully they will offer me free Free room and board. Sanctuary.

Call for Action and Solutions

Refugee thing. That's wild. So what do we do, y'all? I wish I had the answer. I wish I had the damn answer. So yeah, that's happening. So vote blue no matter who, guys. Just one more time. One more time. Just one more time. Next year, next election will be another thing. that's all like see. See? I mean, Biden, just commit crimes. Just do it for us. I mean, now he can. Right? The Supreme Court passed something where, like, you can't, the president can't be prosecuted, right?

Yeah, the immunity thing. Yeah. So, like, if Biden is such a crime monger, why isn't he just, like, busting out with these crimes and just committing a whole bunch of woke crimes for us? Because he's not actually a criminal that bad, I guess. No. Or he doesn't, he's not as woke as he claims to be. Definitely not. That part. Definitely that part.

Any other 2025 thoughts run y'all run i don't have any but i think i think we'd be out there i think we need to be out there protesting creating some ruckus saying what we want, educating people like it's all we can do it's all we can do well everybody are you sad yet yes any other positive things i me and my fiance just watched the last episode of sailor moon and it was quite intense is it like a new thing or like the old no the old one child here's the the door i'm like i thought you was like

it was a revamp or like a there is revamps out there oh really but the animation is poor quality and i do not want to watch it and they really like squished the story down but because one day i just restarted watching sailor moon while i was doing my laundry and then all of a sudden he decided that he wanted to play the entire last season and we've been watching it every time we eat dinner one episode of sailor moon that's cute and we finally got to the last episode which i've never seen and

it was very emotionally intense.

And i almost wanted to cry but i didn't cry gotta cry let it out but i think it was a decent ending but i also wish that they had like one more last episode where they like just did nothing and just had fun, because it's like the end on like we saved the whole fucking world so it's like oops spoilers, I mean it's a given, so I'm like can we just have one episode where like they could relax a nice little beach day fight evil save the world and that's just a little positive gay thought,

the end I love it Anything else? Any other Long Beach thoughts? Nope. Summer's here. See y'all in these streets. Good night. No. I'm not done yet, Chris. Child, what you want from us? Blood. And your credit card. Shit. This shit is...
