ezs note:  It may be that the late Aimee Stephens may lose the case - but it will be short-lived. If Mr, Rotner is correct, there are three things you can do.  First - and absolutely most important - get that vile Trump out of office.  Second, if you have a Republican senator,  vote for a Democrat.  Third,  if you have a Republican House member, vote for a Democrat. And don't forget!!!

New blogpaper up!

On November 6, I finally put up a new blogpaper.  I really like it a lot better.  The title of each section is a lot larger, and the typeface is much more attractive.  The "Comment" section is bolder, and uses a different color which makes commentary by you far easier.  Plus, I like pink!

As always, you are more than welcome to send your comments and questions to me.  Thanks.

Commentary: Transphobia be damned, Chaz Bono comes out dancing (sdgln.com)
