ORLANDO — Arlo Dennis has decided on a deadline to get their family out of Florida: July 1.
That is the day a slate of new laws signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis targeting the LGBTQ community take effect. Doctors will be allowed to deny care based on their moral beliefs. The use of preferred pronouns will be banned in public schools.
I don't know anything about the law in question, but I'll just bet that "the use of preferred pronouns" won't be banned. I'll just bet that that piece couldn't get through the opening paragraph without an alarmist lie.

I think gays and lesbians will do just fine in Florida. The gender benders, not so much. Hard to be an aggrieved class when you A) can't define who you are, and B) you seek superiority over other classes.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

And if you look ridiculous.

Damn. I was really planning on retiring to a Northern State, but Florida is making it harder and harder…

“I’m a trans adult. I have gender nonconforming children,
How surprising… What are the odds?
-
Seriously? I really don’t have an issue with Trans Adults. It’s all the kids’ stuff that I can’t abide… And I’m sick of it being shoved in my face. If trans people are leaving Florida, I could find that very enticing. Too bad the weather sucks.

When I was a kid, the rare times my disgust reflex was activated was in the obligatory sitcom episodes where the male characters dressed as female. I guess I have a stronger reaction to that than most people. It wasn't funny, it was just gross. I don't mind the dresses so much, but the makeup on a male was revolting. I've outgrown that, and don't have any reaction anymore. But yeah the indoctrination and suggestive stuff crosses the line. Which I would have assumed would be obvious to any sane person. But I continually recalibrate my understanding of the power of group-think and the compulsion to belong to the virtue tribe. People are idiots, and adult people are the worst when it comes to that.

This.
Wanna celebrate? Fine. Just don't expect me to join in your
debaucheryrevelsfun. And the fact that you want to expose 5 year olds to it is beyond disgusting.What was once just a fringe thing you could find at zombietime.com is becoming mainstream.
Just a thought: If these kinds of displays were done by women, or heterosexual couples, would anyone object?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I have a corollary belief that as the size of the group grows, the idiocy expands exponentially. When you have almost unilateral consensus, that’s when my hackles start to rise.

Psst...Don't look now, but they've got air conditioning.
And what's a friendly hurricane now and then?

No snow, no snow ski, no sale.

Yeah, but they've got beach bunnies, wonderful golf courses and great deep sea fishing.
And no state income tax.

Texas and the
Underground Railroad…
:eyeroll: -
How are African Americans not offended by this?
-
I am sure zero Texans are troubled by liberals leaving TX. And I am sure there are plenty of gay (and black) residents who appreciate the politics around here. My Nigerian neighbors are probably among them, though we've of course never discussed politics.

My son really wants to buy a little bigger house out towards Hutto.
This could be an opportunity...
