There are loads of England flags on the lampposts around here, someone
paid for them. I think something to do with Tommy Robinson.
I'm not quite clear what the political point of them is? However, they actually look quite pretty, a pleasant change from the normal Christmas decorations.

I’m not sure how you can “cancel” someone from using and developing

no clauses in them that say you are not permitted to use some
software just because someone doesn’t agree with your politics.
You can claim a specific boycott campaign is righteous, but claiming

I took very little care of a former Marine who tried to commitsuicide
with
his .45 semi-auto when he found out he was gay in the 1950s. Blinded
himself and did a prefrontal destruction. He was on a different ward
than I usually worked on and tended toward violent reactions to
unfamiliar people.

One recruit announced he was gay in a bid to get discharged. The DI took
him to the center of the squad bay, handed him a broom, and told him to
show us all what queers did. He then explained that they would go to his
home town, and ask his parents, friends and teachers if he really was gay.
He decided he wasn't.
I watched about 5 minutes of 'Boots' before I figured out what it was
about. Maybe the Crotch was a kinder, gentler place by the '90s.
Gotta watch those 1911s. Bo Gritz tried to kill himself with one while
seated in his pickup and missed.
Apropos of the above another DI explained if you wanted to kill yourself
by bleeding out you didn't make a couple of little slashes across your
wrist like a teenage girl; you sliced the vein down the length of your forearm.

Because of the negative attention directed by the fascistic radicals of
the former Republican Party, rates of depression are going up for most
of the
LGBTQ youth community. Young transgenders are being denied proper medication which would delay the stress of puberty and feminizing or masculizing hormone therapy.
These law makers who assent to these measures have very few
medical licenses or even pre-medical degrees to their name. Maybe a law degree, some Doctors of Divinity or a real estate licence. They raise the notion that the transgenders want to use bathrooms to spy on the opposite
sex but many of the same people want to deny sexual education to children
who might become the victims of real sexual abusers who are not generally strange men or women in dresses but fathers, brothers, older sisters and
even mothers.
Again they try to restrict competition between genetic females
and transgender girls and women but it they went by weight classes
they would have fairer competitions beween boys and girls.
But men have intruded into women's spaces as long as there was women's space. They don't generally put on dresses to do so.

I doubt transsexuals with dementia of any sort will be asking that since they conform to their dreams. Maybe people who made bad
decisions or who only thought they were transgender might ask such
questions.

Statistically not many will live long enough to reach dementia.

I don't know the extent of the body mods, if any, but I knew someone who
went from being a stocky, not particularly handsome, middle aged male to a stock, not very pretty, middle aged female. His pedantic, sort of pain in
the ass personality did not undergo any transition. Rachel Levine comes to mind.
Dementia can happen quite early. But looking at my generationhow
people reach 88? My alleged mind might start to crack tomorrow or I
could die as I go to the library or worse on return. Worse because my
books could become overdue the worst of a reader's many sins.

What percentage of the nursing home population can be expected to be
trans?
(Also, 50 years from now? Transsexuality isn't a new concept, wouldn't we
be seeing this now already?)

Yeah, I was wondering, this scenario relies on forgetting stuff, but if
one forgets stuff, isn't it more likely that what is remembered is the
gender that person perceives deeply to be their gender, and not what
some outsider says their gender is? Or is there something I'm missing
about dementia?
