transphobia, maga bullshit (we're fine so far), very very etymologically questionable Greek 

Welp, I got a tip that Louisiana is well on the way to passing its own bathroom bill.

We're not too concerned yet. Even if this one manages to pass the inevitable court challenges, as I put it to my friend who warned me, New Orleans is basically Capetown during apartheid, or Casablanca during Vichy France. The typical citizen would pay not to have to give the faintest fuck about who's trans. Support will be negligible; resistance will be considerable.

Everybody here ALREADY hates Baton Rouge meddling with our lives, and the folks on Reddit are already murmuring "can has tax strike nao?" New Orleans frequently beats SEATTLE in LGBT support rankings, ffs. Hell, a good chunk of our economy comes from Hollywood, so we LITERALLY CAN NOT AFFORD to scare LGBT people away from here.

For as long as the French Quarter continues to have a good 3-4 LGBT flags *per block*, I think we're good and safe no matter what that fake-ass god-bothering Christofascist Jeff Landry thinks.

Molon LGBTabe, motherfucker.
