The psychology of Texas fascism

Yesterday, I learned that a Trumpist gunman was menacing people a few blocks from a school off of Wallisville Road. The gunman said that he was trying to provoke a reaction: The gunman picked the Sonoma Subdivision where the median home costs more than a quarter million. Built in 2005, the subdivision is located in […]

White House = Death House: AIDS & George HW Bush

It’s one of the few diseases where behavior matters. And I once called on somebody, “Well, change your behavior! If the behavior you’re using is prone to cause AIDs, change the behavior!” Next thing I know, one of these ACT UP groups is saying, “Bush ought to change his behavior!” You can’t talk about it […]

BETOids

I was, and still am, a huge Beto fan and while I’d hoped that he’d win, I wasn’t expecting it. In fact, since the last Dem was beaten by Cruz by 16 points, I thought that it would be remarkable if Beto came within 10 points while hoping for 5. In fact, he came in […]

San Antonio: not as mature as their children

For the past month, the adults of San Antonio have been wringing their collective hands in very public displays of “concern” over a city ordinance that would extend equality to *gasp* trans citizens. While the notion of trans/cis equality has set the adult’s tongues awaggin, their children already extend this equality to trans children. San […]

Cristan’s 2012 Year in Review

My 2012 highlights: January Schadenfreude Anyone? – It turns out that the lawyer trying to do away with trans marriage racked up YET ANOTHER ethics violation! Equality = Bathroom Bills = Rape: Reality Check –RadFems take up the exact same blood-drenched tactics used against them to take aim at trans folk. Nikki Araguz, Jewel Thief […]

Watch the Republican Propaganda Machine Turn On Itself

Recently I’ve seen Republican leaders take a rhetorical sledgehammer to any Republican who dares come off as a non-ideologue extremist. Not only is the consensus at the Republican Governors’ Convention that President Obama won not because Americans agreed with his positions on raising taxes on the rich or healthcare, but because of Obama’s ground game… Republicans think “the […]
