@roadriverrail some of the footage from this video is from ATL

@roadriverrail Hertz once gave me a reservation from a location that DOES NOT EXIST

@JaedaCalaway yes. It still needs the governor's signature, but it has now passed the House and the Senate

I wish I lived in a state that wasn't run by smug sociopathic assholes

@roadriverrail @taedryn metro Atlanta now dominates Georgia politics in a way that has never been true before. Even though the metro area is solidly Democratic, there are still more Republican votes coming from the Atlanta area than anywhere else

@taedryn the anti-trans hate machine learned their lesson from North Carolina, so now they advance model legislation in many states at once to blunt the effectiveness and possibility of boycotts or other similar actions

@taedryn in every one of these states there are grassroots efforts to fight this legislation, but the people who need to be convinced are Republican politicians, which is tough but not always impossible

@taedryn here in Georgia, the Republican leadership would rather avoid culture war conflict in favor of "pro-business" policies. And the threat of boycott or divestment helps to encourage them to have that position. But this year, there is a youth healthcare ban that passed the state senate. The state legislature is so gerrymandered that most legislators fear a primary challenge much more than a general election one, so even though transphobia seems to be a losing electoral strategy, it still might make sense for them to pursue it because it's catnip to a certain section of the Republican base

@roadriverrail there supposed to, and it seems like people generally don't have problems in town. I'm not sure if an X would get you very far though

@roadriverrail I updated my US passport first, which I did through the mail and was just like updating a passport without a gender change. Then I took it to the South Dekalb DDS where I didn't have any issues. I had to wait maybe a half hour for my turn and it cost $10. I had already changed my name a couple months ago

@roadriverrail that's why I changed mine!

@roadriverrail while they absolutely should, I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable with an X marker in this state

This gal! (it's an interim license for now)
