Because this is not the first time conservatives have sought to ban cross-dressing and gender-non confirming folx with trash laws.

Imagine?! Discriminatory laws in the US and the A?!

Laws criminalizing cross dressing and weaponizing the police against q***r people are certainly nothing new. There are so many images of people being arrested for wearing the “wrong” clothing over the past 150-200 years, that it was difficult to choose which ones to share in this post.

The conservative narrative surrounding all the recent drag bans and bills restricting the existence of trans people is that the public visibility of drag and non-traditional gender expression is a new and dangerous phenomenon that will taint the minds and bodies of young people. They would have us believe that exposure to q***r culture encourages q***r feelings and lifestyles, despite the fact that q***r people have blossomed out of exclusively hetero spaces since the dawn of time.

In honor of Pride, Tux sheds a light on the fact that cross dressing and non-traditional forms of gender expression have been visible to the public for a VERY LONG TIME. So visible in fact, that in the mid-1800s cities and states across the country passed countless cross-dressing bans and Masquerade Laws to criminalize alternative gender expression just like they’re doing today.

It is certainly disheartening and scary, but please know that we’ve been through this before and we’re better for it today because we know how to fight these laws. We’ve gotten them overturned before and we can and will do it again.

y’all!

Get into this fruity, over the top Brandy Cobbler. As per ushe we’re sharing the cocktail recipe with you today so you can drink along with us on Monday!
🎉🎉🎉

Cobblers are very similar to juleps - made with spirits, sugar, and (loads of) crushed ice. But usually cobblers are garnished with citrus and seasonal fruit rather than mint like a julep (though a little mint is a cute garnish too)
While they were usually made with wine, sometimes stronger spirits were used, and the brandy cobbler was really popular in the 1850s. Not only is it frosty and delicious, it’s also strong and super easy to make.

On the latest episode of Season 5 TUX returns to roast President Reagan, since every season is pi***ng on Reagan’s grave season.

TUX regales us with the October Surprise, the allegation that representatives of Ronald Reagan's presidential campaign made a secret deal with Iranian leaders to delay the release of American hostages until after the election between Reagan and President Jimmy Carter, the incumbent.

Trash as far as the eye can see with this scandal, check it out!

On the latest episode of the podcast, we are back in Europe talking about the wrap of WWII in this lovely fleeting climate before the Cold War got hot.

And quickly pivot to what the CIA did to make it hot!

Operation Gladio is the subject of STEPHANIE’s latest scandal. The operation was on paper not terrible but in practice? Hold on to your butts!

This operation was designed with a potential Soviet invasion in mind.

Although Gladio specifically refers to the Italian branch of the CIA/NATO stay-behind organizations, "Operation Gladio" is used as an informal name for all stay-behind operations were prepared in many NATO member countries, and even in some neutral countries.

Secret stay-behind were to prepare for a communist Soviet invasion and occupation of Western Europe but in the absence of an invasion they were to prepare for an “emergency situation.”

It is this last bit where things get sticky because an “emergency situation” could be people voting the wrong way according to those in power.

Tune in to learn about Operation Gladio if you like spook s**t!

STEPHANIE is back on her CIA bu****it, sharing to fun tale of Operation Gladio, the codename for the secret CIA-backed paramilitary network of “stay behinds” in Western Europe whose explicit goal was to activate in the event of a Soviet invasion but in reality was used in the event the working class grew too strong once again. 🫠

Georgia Meloni (no relation to Christopher) is Italy’s first female Prime Minister and that is historic but this woman is an as***le.

The Brothers of Italy leader denies she is a fascist but clings to the Mussolini-era slogan ‘God, homeland, family’🤨🤨🧐

Although she has worked hard to soften her image, emphasizing her support for Ukraine and diluting anti-EU rhetoric, she leads a party rooted in a post-war movement that rose out of dictator Benito Mussolini's fascists.

We are a bit nervous about this here at beyond Reproach but still feel like our American fascist are worse.
