hey juys, psa, snark, yelling at a person i made up
um i'm only gonna say this once and it is not up for any discussion whatsoever but if you have had any worries at all about peg and me being in a "red state" kindly stop immediately because it only shows you don't have any comprehension of what new orleans is actually like nor how many people they'd have to get through -- like our own neighbors -- to get to us
if you wanna worry about our ability to marry that's absolutely fine, we are on track to expedite that if possible -- that is a legitimate fear but i am pretty damn sure we aren't gonna have to stockpile weaponry to fight off the people living down the street k thx bai
nobody's done this but given some of the extremely broad and flat characterizations of red states i've been reading in the past week i'm pretty sure at least one of you adorable doofs were thinking it
we're fine thanks -- tbh i have a sneaking suspicion that in the event of a 2nd Civil War we'd end up some kind of crazy Free State. every damn person in this city has been itching to tell baton rouge to go fuck themselves and keep our tourist dollars for ourselves anyhow -- we'll just be doing it as the Free Pirate Port we were always destined to be ;D

@001zlnv @zebratron2084 Wait, wait, this is a really good plan.

@Austin_Dern @001zlnv I wonder how much media chaos I could foment by bringing this up "seriously" at a city council meeting, dressed in full highwayman regalia.
re: hey juys, psa, snark, yelling at a person i made up
possibly a lot? you could also ask about letters of marque.
re: hey juys, psa, snark, yelling at a person i made up
@001zlnv @Austin_Dern I've always wanted one of those.
re: hey juys, psa, snark, yelling at a person i made up
@zebratron2084 @001zlnv @Austin_Dern I also want a letter of marque. I also live in a very important international crossroads. Hmm.

@zebratron2084 If anything, I'd more likely forget that Louisiana is a Red State, because New Orleans is there and so heccing gay.
It's sorta like how Austin, TX is so different from the rest of TX, but exponentially more.
Also, this post made me wonder about what relationship definitions and labels would fit a marriage between you and Peg and it was a lot of fun chaos.

@relee It's SO gay. :D Also, have you seen this article? Brought me a lot of hope this morning even if I can't help kinda worrying about them... https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/29/us/eureka-springs-lgbtq-arkansas-town-cec/index.html

@zebratron2084 I had not seen it! That seems really nice. I'd heard some odd bad stuff tonight, also, so it's nice to see it.
I've also heard of an armed alpaca farm for trans folks, somewhere in the U.S. and other cool places.

Even better, you're situated to be robber barons. Just make sure to put a castle on the Mississippi, and tollbooth it up like a pointless Rhine noble.
