I guess the missed the memo that the kitty litter in schools is used when kids need to use the bathroom when they’re locked down when there’s an active shooter. ---

That was fake news. The furries are the enemy of our children, not school shooters. ---

That will now be an illegal use of litter by kids/teachers during school shootings. ---

I do think that at this point Elmo has become a direct threat to humanity. He is creepy and has some pretty serious authoritarian impulses. I don’t say that lightly. There is something clearly wrong with him. ---

Hopefully the petition to strip Musk of his Canadian citizenship is successful as I am embarrassed he is Canadian. At least Ted Cruz voluntarily revoked his Canadian citizenship. ---

She, not he. Well, I assume Karoline Leavitt uses she / her pronouns, I think in today’s White House that pronouns falls under don’t ask, don’t tell. ---

Oops, missed that, since I’m not keeping up with these trash individuals. > [@now\_samantha](#): > > I think in today’s White House that pronouns falls under don’t ask, don’t tell . It is most certainly not that. This government will tell everyone what his or her, not their, pronoun is. And, fuck them. ---

More like, “We will ask, and if you tell anybody ever, you will go to prison.” At least in Texas where they’re the first to try to make simply existing as a trans person a felony. ---

Strictly speaking, they are trying to make having an ID with your correct gender a felony. If you don’t try to correct your gender and just do whatever medical things you want, that is still ok under the proposed law. I would not feel remotely safe in TX having an ID that says that I am a completely different gender than my appearance, but that by itself wouldn’t get one arrested. ---

Stuff like this we saw over here with Brexit. They wanted to give _those people_ a kicking. Never really thought it through and now they will pay a very heavy price. ![FB_IMG_1742401695108](https://community.goactuary.com/uploads/default/original/3X/2/7/272e987c0ff3149aaed4ebd3be84ffff96a086e0.jpeg) ---
