Nice to see the Democrats standing up for trans rights and fighting against the Republicans like they mean it. Not all is lost.

Credit where it's due, they actually did some proper good work, here.

The Repubs will just use the lose to feed the propaganda machine and probably try again later, but still.

Everyone who voted for that bill should be immediately registered as a sex offender. The people who wrote that were really not subtle about it being mostly an excuse for the people enforcing it to be allowed to forcibly fondle children's genitals.

I have one complaint of this being posted

It's Fillibuster.
Science Fiction is a genre where anything can happen. Just make sure what happens is enjoyable for yourself and your audience.

That's nice.

I mean, it's saving one puppy in the burning pound but no complaints.
