Peyton McNabb and January Littlejohn

These two asshats were highlighted at The Felon’s State of the Union address …

The first is Peyton McNabb, on the left above. She was a high school athlete who The Felon claimed had a career ending injury from a transgender volleyball player but in the months following the assault, as both The Felon and Lil Peyton called it, she competed in both softball and basketball so she couldn’t have had a “career ending injury.”

It is also important to note that it was never proven the other athlete was transgender and many kids at Peyton’s school have confirmed then opponent was a cisgender athlete.

Peyton lies, lied, and will lie.

The second asshat is January Littlejohn, on the right above, who was there to highlight a story of a school transitioning her daughter without her approval. Here’s an email Littlejohn sent to her child’s teacher:

“This has been an incredibly difficult situation for our family and her father and I are trying to be as supportive as we can. She is currently identifying as non-binary. She would like to go by the new name [redacted] and prefers the pronouns they/them. We have not changed her name at home yet, but I told her if she wants to go by the name [redacted] with her teachers, I won’t stop her.”

Sounds nice, right, but then the Littlejohn’s went on to try to sue the school for calling her by the name she had chosen to be called and the name that the parents said the school could call their child.

A judge ultimately dismissed after these emails became known

So Facts really do matter people. These stories are lies and dangerous for already marginalized groups. It is sickening that these people stood in front of the world and lied for political gain.

Their hatred is really strong and really stupid.

That Bitch: Mark Robinson

Up in North Carolina, the state’s GOP  Lt. Governor, Mark Robinson, has never hidden his hatred for LGBTQ+ people, but he recently spoke at a church … yes, a church … in Winston-Salem where questioned the “purpose” of being gay, said straight couples are “superior” to gay couples, because they can reproduce, and said he didn’t want to explain to his grandchildren why two men are kissing if they see that on television.

Oh, the children! Protect the children from gay men kissing, but not from a hate-spewing public official.

In his little speech, compared being gay to “what the cows leave behind” as well as maggots and flies, who he said all serve a purpose in God’s creation:

“If homosexuality is of God, what purpose does it serve? What does it make? What does it create? It creates nothing,”

Well, this is as good a time as any to post one of my favorite quotes, which comes from a 1999 Letter to the Editor of the Sacramento Bee in which Preston Reese wrote:

“Is homosexuality a ‘soul-deadening’ perversion? Let’s try an experiment:

I’m going to rip out the Sistine Chapel’s ceiling; burn Handel’s Messiah; slash the Mona Lisa; bury Walt Whitman’s ‘Leaves of Grass;’ incinerate every Tchaikovsky score; torch every Greta Garbo film; ban every Bessie Smith song; and grind every Marlene Dietrich performance to dust.

Then we can evaluate what kind of ‘soul-deadening’ world we would live in without gay people.”

It is of note that Mark Robinson is a Black man, who probably grew up hearing he was less than because of his skin color, that perhaps he is akin to what “cows leave behind,” or is at least the child or grandchild of someone who was treated like shit for being themselves.

He calls himself a man of God but if this speech is the speech of God, then we don’t need God, or even god. It is also worth noting that Mark Robinson says that as a n elected official it is his job to protect all people, even LGBTQ+ people, but in a church he can stand before the congregation and call us less than shit.

You might also like to know that Mark Robinson hopes to run for governor of North Carolina in 20224, and while separating Church from State in his sermon, he also inflation, gas prices, Afghanistan, and President Joe Biden’s abilities.

Then he said this:

“Ain’t but two genders—male and female. Two. There are two genders, male and female. I don’t care how much you cut yourself up, drug yourself up and dress yourself up, you still either one of two things—you either a man or a woman. You might be a cut up, dressed up, drugged up ugly man or woman, but you still a man or a woman, and I don’t care who doesn’t like it.”

Hate Speech, in a sermon in a church by a publicly elected official. Hate. And it’s words like that that end up with our trans sisters dead in the streets, our LGBTQ+ family beaten and murdered because, to Mark Robinson, we ain’t worth shit.

Lastly, if Mark Robinson thinks only superior people can reproduce, he might need to take a look at himself and his lineage that produced such ignorance and hate masked as faith; he need only ask about women who cannot bear children but get married; men who cannot father a child but get married. Are they inferior?

They are to That Bitch, Mark Robinson.

That Bitch: Kelly Loeffler Replaced Again!

It’s been about a month since Kelly Loeffler lost her temporary Senate seat to Rev. Raphael Warnock.

Good. Bye.

Loeffler was also co-owner of the Atlanta Dream, a team in the WNBA—a league she criticized publicly for supporting Black Lives Matter and anti-LGBTQ+ legislation—and now she’s out of that job, too!

And, in what is surely the height of irony, after being bested in the election by a Black man, she was replaced as team owner by a three-person group of investors: Larry Gottesdiener, a real estate investor, Suzanne Abair, and out both real estate investors, and Renee Montgomery, an out Black two-time WNBA champion who last played for the Dream, prior to opting out of the 2020 season.

Oh. Snap.

Life is good, and very often fair.
