    Transgender day of visibility has been March 31st for years, Biden didn’t co-opt Easter for trans people (not that I would care if he did).

      So it’s whoever decided to make Easter the first Sunday after the first Saturday after the first full moon after the spring equinox’s fault, this year.

      I will say, this is probably gonna go down as the “most visible” visibility day, due to the coincidence.

      Dissonance is not limited to the rich and famous; they just have more potential to do damage than the rest of us.

            I don’t understand why you made the assumption that I was anything less than chill while asking a pretty simple, neutral toned, 6 word question

            Well I can think of reasons, but I’d like to hear your actual rationale

            Edit: blocked commenter who responded to this, didn’t want to talk to discuss, just wanted to dictate and push their reality on others. Cyber gaslighting, wild.

          Not everything is an attack relax lol. The comment is just mentioning it’s not limited to the rich and famous. That’s all.

            And not every question asked is asked with outrage…

            Maybe you’re reading too far into my 7 word post…

    I don’t grasp why anyone thinks they have to choose like … how does the existence of one holiday mean erasing another, it doesn’t

      I worked with a trashy white woman who was mad that we had pride stuff up for June and Juneteenth stuff up on the 19th because of Father’s day (what?). So the whole crew decided to troll by having fake conversations in her presence about how father’s day should only be celebrated by gay black fathers. We were all happy when at he was every eventually fired.

        Oof I had a counselor once who went off unprompted about how there’s a MLK Day but no White Person Day, among other manifestations of bigotry I’ve encountered in my community

      No, you’re only allowed to have 365 holidays! Maybe an extra one for February 29th, but that one’s already taken anyway.

      The idea of a holiday is entirely arbitrary and the meaning and value is entirely subjective for any given holiday. Getting upset because your made up religious holiday happened to coincide with some other designated day is just irrational.

      She ran for governor of California. As a Republican. She doesn’t go to GOP conferences because she might get eaten by the leopards. The political and religious posturing is all a grift, which in a way makes her a perfect Republican, but they can’t really claim her, for the same reason.

      Because she’s only useful to them as a prop? They don’t want to see or hear her… ew …but its useful to have a trans person spout your anti-trans talking points. Reminds me of that Trump rally where he pointed out the like 1 POC there like “look at MY African American”

      It’s like people from parallel universes are on the internet. They must call their version of Earth something else where they’re from. =p
