Please enjoy/share/use this art I made. It's a message that feels important to me right now. There is no freedom OF religion without freedom FROM religion.

Utah is in a drought
Residents have been asked to cut their lawn watering to the point our lawns are dead or dying. Most all my neighbors lawns are mostly yellow except the Mormon churches, they have green lawns. I even saw a chapel watering today at noon. Mormonism is such a parasite on our society.

Pretty much everyone said this would happen. One ticked off parent can throw a tantrum and get any girl investigated because their kid didn’t win. Gross.

Hey guys, this isn't fandom-related but just a PSA because I want you to be safe out there.
Whatever you do, DO NOT go to this form created to target trans people in Utah and DO NOT spam it with bogus reports such as:
The entire Bee Movie script
100k word fanfics
Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up"
The names of conservative lawmakers
Full-length movies
Keysmashes
PDFs of novels
etc.
Remember, since they have no limits on word count or file size, it's really easy to overload their system and we DO NOT want that to happen. Additionally, if you have a VPN, you should absolutely NOT change your location to Utah because that makes it more difficult for them to filter reports by IP address.

A proposed bill could make public school employees subject to misdemeanor charges if they keep materials deemed “objectively sensitive” available to students.

A handful of anti-LGBTQ bills have went into effect this month:
Florida's "Don't Say Gay" bill - bars teaching about sexual orientation or gender identity starting in kindergarten up to age 9
South Dakota passed a bill that places restrictions on LGBTQ+ topics in higher education
Tennessee's bill bans teachers from educating young students about “LGBTQ lifestyle issues”
Tennessee passed another bill that will pull funding from state schools that allow trans students to compete on sports teams
Indiana, South Dakota, and Utah all banned trans women and girls competing in sports
Alabama's bill prevents trans students from using facilities that match their gender identity
Alabama also bars teachers of kindergarten kids through to 10- and 11-year-olds from teaching anything related to LGBTQ+ topics

Utah Passes Anti-Trans ‘Bathroom Bill’ Amid Strong Outcry
Salt Lake City — Hundreds gathered on the steps of the Utah State Capitol in late January to show support for queer and trans residents while the majority of legislators voted in favor of HB257, a bill crafted to exclude trans people from government-owned sex-designated “privacy spaces” such as bathrooms and locker rooms. As originally written, the bill limited access to “privacy spaces,” including bathrooms, locker rooms and changing rooms, on the basis of sex assigned at birth inside any facility that receives state funding. After several rounds of debate and multiple revisions, the bill was adopted at the end of January. The bill’s final language changed the restriction to apply only to government-owned facilities, though it included a harsher penalty for violating the law. Under the recently-signed law, violators can be charged with a Class A misdemeanor, which carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison and a fine of up to $2,500.
[...]
Queer and trans youth lined up on the capitol steps to speak to the crowd about how HB257 would impact them if passed. “The Capitol will not save us — we will save us! We have power — they are terrified of us. They are scared shitless because they do not know what to do with the youth that will not stand down and that will stand with each other,” one community member told the crowd.

“Why do people live in the desert if you know it’s deadly hot!!”
I understand the misconception but people have been living here for hundreds of years and it’s recently only gotten particularly deadly because of climate change and it’s ruining our environment and-
“Just move!! Don’t live in a deadly wasteland you should know better!!”
You don’t actually care about the deserts, do you?
