Sailing my 15' West Wight Potter sailboat on the ocean is one of my greatest passions. Hiking & camping in the national parks is also a favorite way to spend the day.

Sherrod Brown's new response to an anti-trans ad is remarkably different from many other dems. Instead of accepting bigotry towards trans people, he pivots and links his Republican opponent to the Epstein files. It is notably different from his earlier ads. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Sherrod Brown Answers Anti-Trans Attack Ads By Tying Jon Husted To The Epstein Files
“Jon Husted? He protected men who abused young girls by voting in the Senate to block the release of the Epstein files.”

Imagine if Democrats were campaigning on "No immigrants in sports" or "No healthcare for Black children" or "I don't support biological Jews". You know it would be outright evil. Why does your calculus change when those same arguments are made about trans people?

This new Sherrod Brown ad debunks a anti trans ad while tying the Republican senate candidate to Jeffrey Epstein. THIS is how you fight back against anti trans ads.

Arizona and Virginia, both of which are governed by Democrats, are ending Medicaid coverage of care for trans youth, Transitics has learned. The bans, which go into effect on October 13th, mark the most significant Democratic capitulation to Trump's anti-trans demands yet. Cowards.

The policy changes, which go into effect on October 13th, see Arizona and Virginia join Kansas as states where Democrats have needlessly opted to restrict Medicaid coverage of gender-affirming care.

if you learn how government works and still want to argue that government actors shouldn't enforce the law on trans people's behalf because what if trump cuts off funding and cutting off the funding hurts cis people, you are doing cis activism, not trans activism

Oh yeah, even with desk pens and very limited time at work I can draw. Guess I'm responding with this today to anyone who doesn't realize if you hurt someone, you can't bully then back into loving you...
An angry donkey, representing a democratic candidate, is standing in a doorway shaking a first at a woman wearing the colours of the trans pride flag who is walking away with a black eye and a small bag. The donkey is yelling, in comic sans, "Bitch you better not leave! What are you going to live on the streets and vote for nobody? You'll regret this! I'LL SEE YOU IN THE CAMPS, BITCH!"
Below the image, a handwritten caption reads "Vote Blue No Matter How Many Times He Hits You!"
The quality of art is pretty poor, though I do think I got the folds in the donkey's shirt correct. I clearly didn't put much time into the drawing, but that's okay because like all political cartoons it's mostly a conceptual piece and I'm more angry about the content than concerned about the form.
Thank you for reading my alt text TED talk!

The white boat is designed for long distances, featuring enclosed cabins at the bow and stern, solar panels on the rear cabin, and various mounted navigational antennas. The hull is decorated with vibrant pink, purple, and blue swirling wave graphics.
​Several sponsor logos are visible along the side of the boat, including Pasha Hawaii, Hatch River Expeditions, Concept2, Güntner, and the cursive Lily logo near the stern.
