Unlike the Boomers and unlike Gen X, some of us live in reality, and reality sucks right now.

The same people getting their knickers in a knot carrying on about the entitled Millennials, or the LGBTQ+ agenda are censoring books, frothing at the mouth that LGBTQ+ people dare to exist.

They are also trying to trash the public education system (they’ve done a damn good job), and a whole bunch of other detestable bullshit.

I have a long list of desires for a society that works for all (and not just conservatives who shout the loudest):

I want LGBTQ+ children and adults to live in a world where they are not only tolerated (we haven’t even gotten this far yet), but loved and affirmed for who they are.

I want them to have appropriate healthcare. These healthcare choices remaining private between the individual (their parent if a minor), and their doctors.

Yeah, I know, I’m a fucking bitch that has no idea about the real world and I’m grooming your grandkids. At least I’m not teaching them bigotry. I’m teaching them to love anyone including your conservatie grandkids.
