"Don't kill queer people," is outsiders imposing their opinion. A constitution that applies to everyone doesn't necessarily follow what locals are going to want to do.

Crook County

Nominative determinism strikes again.

All of these come down to, "we want the right to keep fucking everyone else with externalities while enjoying the benefits of outsourcing those costs," which, no sympathy. Grow up, people.

What happens to queer people who happen to be born in rural areas, in your model?

So you can't do it, I can't do it, nobody we know can do it. Maybe write Joe a letter or something?

I think there has to be an actual crime, directly witnessed.

Well, I can't do an arrest. Can you do an arrest? I'm guessing you can neither arrest nor prosecute. If you can, by all means. I look forward to hearing about it. But I don't expect to. I expect that that is not a solution that will be employed. John Oliver tried an extrajudicial offer to Clarence Thomas, and he doesn't seem to have accepted that. So there don't appear to be any remedies within the system, adjacent to the system, or near the system. And somehow, I also doubt I'll hear about you throwing his tea into the harbor.

Who bells the cat?

Literally impossible right now. It'd take a 2/3ds senate majority to remove him.

That was one of the conditions of these debates.

Ugh, god damn it.

Thanks for the correction..

He quashed the strike in the moment, and got them most of their demands as a follow-up, as I hear it. But only the first part ever made the news, for some reason.

"Why don't you just be a gender nonconforming <ASAB>?" trans people get asked, from reasonably well-meaning people who don't Get It. My sibling in Christ, even if we did, look what happens.
