      I’ve said something similar every time I hear about these stupid laws or proposed laws… if you’re trans and someone tells you you’re going to the ‘wrong’ bathroom, tell them “it’s either there or the floor. You pick.”

    Where’s Obvious Plant with the “Stupid Hateful Bitch Congressional Playset” when you need them?

    Could include things like:

    • Non-prescription glasses to fake looking smart
    • Gavel you’re not authorized to use but brought from home anyway
    • Unrelated chain-email printouts from klandma
    • False sense of superiority sold separately.

      This is just to target one specific trans congresswoman who got elected.
