Here’s some important news from the American chapter of Women’s Declaration International. Graduates at the historically women’s Smith College on Sunday will enjoy a commencement address by Admiral Rachel Levine, who will receive an honorary degree.
Tomorrow, @smithcollege—a historically women’s college—will award Richard “Rachel” Levine an honorary degree. Levine, who pretends to be a woman, will then speak at commencement.

“… who agree.”
They also chatted with some who didn’t.
A woman in a Transformers shirt has just called us fascists for carrying a banner which reads that women are adult human females. https://t.co/SoCqRijH7e pic.twitter.com/1aXZi7sg5Z

So much anger! We almost thought we were going to see another instance of trans violence.
By the way, did you know that Saturday, May 17, is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia? We didn’t. As far as we know, President Donald Trump hasn’t posted about it, but Canada’s new prime minister has, as well as the leader of the Liberal Democrats in the U.K. Parliament.
Here’s the Liberal Democrats:
On International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia, I want to say to the LGBT+ community:
I hear you, I get it, I stand with you, and the Liberal Democrats will never stop fighting to build a country and a world where you are truly free to be who you are. pic.twitter.com/nJZ3GsQmP7

Biphobia is really a thing? For that matter, is “homophobia” really a thing? An irrational fear of gays?
And a woman is?

There’s like 180 gay days now. Just make the whole year gay and be done with it.

Pride Month is just around the corner.
Is there any bandwagon you won’t jump on?

Ooh, using the “genuinely care” expression and long pauses between sentences.
This must be important.

Do you stand with men who want to use single sex female spaces Ed?

As a gay man….this “day” is useless and stupid. We have a month in June…which is ridiculous. All these phobias are insulting. We are adults…we don’t need to be patronized.

You’re importing people who believe they should be killed.
You f*cking idiot.

Good point.

Idaho bit.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney assured us that love is love.
Love is love—and on this International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia, we’ll keep working to build a world where everyone feels safe and free to be themselves. pic.twitter.com/m5MjLfbUWp

What if a gross old man says he loves an underage girl?
Is that still “love is love”?

Love is love is the chant on paedophiles.
Please stop it.

They’re called “minor-attracted persons” now, or MAPs.
Feeling sad for Canada these days. Geez.

We don’t even know what that third flag is … the bisexual pride flag?
We haven’t heard from British Prime Minister Kier Starmer, whose posts have taken a hard-right turn recently:
If you’re one of the smugglers putting people in small boats across the channel — we’re coming after you.

We’ll let you know if President Trump posts a video like Joe Biden would have done.
