Tangent: Anti-LGBT Bills
Added 2023-03-22 19:54:30 +0000 UTCHi friends,
Here's the March tangent, about the wave of over 400 brutal anti-LGBT bills that have been introduced in all but nine state legislatures in the US this year.
The topic is super grim, so I've done my best to lighten the mood, in a "haha we're all going to die" sort of way.
The first 19 minutes are basically prefatory procrastination about the history of anti-LGBT legislation, from King Henry VIII to the present day. If you only care about the current crisis you can skip that, though I found researching it pretty interesting.
I don't know if "enjoy" is the right word in these circumstances, but I hope you, um, appreciate? this tangent? Let me know what you think!
All the best,
Natalie
P.S. I will have a main channel video out soon too, probably not by the end of March, but certainly in a couple weeks!

2025-02-17 15:15:25 +0000 UTCDoes anyone know of organizations that are trying to underground-railroad queer people to safety? I know of one called Rainbow Railroad that works internationally, but I can't find an equivalent within the U.S.

2023-09-27 21:58:52 +0000 UTCI would absolutely follow Natalie into revolution. She would make an excellent leader.
2023-09-22 15:26:14 +0000 UTCI thought you were referring to Thatcher as a milf for one horrifying second.

2023-09-21 22:20:19 +0000 UTCCan you make a video debunking the Atrazine is causing more transitions conspiracy theory? Hate to have to ask this it's ridiculous I know but I just heard about it and apparently it's gaining popularity in the right rn. ugh.

2023-08-19 05:15:08 +0000 UTCI love all your content and so appreciate you sharing all this information to help us all become better allies. That said, I’m sitting here crying that things have gotten so bad for the 2SLGBTQ+ community. I want and need to more than I already do. You live in your community, be an active community member and ally and think things are getting better but once you step back and see the bigger picture it all seems so daunting. This is going to motivate me to push harder.
2023-06-24 15:35:09 +0000 UTCI will say when so many states are taking such hard right turns on LGBTQIA issues and the states that aren't are like 6x as expensive to live in it does kind of feel like well where the hell are we supposed to go?

2023-06-21 07:22:49 +0000 UTCJust seeing Glenn Youngkin pisses me off. I live in Virginia and was disgusted when he was elected. His entire campaign was anti-queer and racist parent's rights bullshit. At least in Virginia governors can't serve consecutive terms.

2023-06-18 17:36:09 +0000 UTCOkay that's actually a really intriguing point about heterosexuality being so fragile that is has to be mandated by law, whereas gay relationships are seen are so seductive as for the mere knowledge of their existence is expected to recruit millions of feebleminded women and children!

2023-06-09 05:36:10 +0000 UTC…the first time in 40 years. These cretinous ding dings are looking to sadism their way back into office.
2023-05-31 19:43:26 +0000 UTC9:30 -> Look, this is on-brand excellent, but I must quibble. I was married for 25 years, whereupon GAYS invaded my home and set up a campsite in my living room, from which they plotted and executed the demise of that marriage. It was horrible. And they laughed manically like cheap Bond villains as they were doing it, too!! I've since been forced at gunpoint by our Gay Overlords to be gay married, an institution so titanium-strong that death is my only escape. Pray for me.
