Sissy SpaceX

A little blue bird told me that the muskrat hates this nickname fiercely. I will take his hurt feelings into account every time I use it in polite company.

It's not easy being a fake graphic artist. (take that any ambiguous way you want)

Alcohol helps. I found some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale in the pantry today, and I even found my missing best pair of reading glasses.

A banner day.

It wouldn't be applied if the word "sissy" didn't have meaning beyond being a [nick] name.

15. I don't think you even got the joke in the first place.

And companies, which is what the joke is directed at, don't have genders.

You didn't understand the wordplay. You assumed it was a gender-based insult and now you're digging in, which is certainly your right to do.

And it's clearly about Musk.

But whatever - no ally cookies this time around. Try again tomorrow!

10. They are always appropriate for hypocrites who are trying to damage and erase gender diverse people & women

I agree that if they were applied to Democrats and others who advocate for and legislate for gender rights and care, then that would be completely inappropriate.

But Muck has completely and totally rejected his trans offspring.
Muck is cutting government agencies because they do not primarily serve white men.
Muck is part of and supporting a regime that is trying to eliminate women and many minorities from history, from web sites, from language, from government services.

Muck is an appropriate target with memes that attack his gender policies by dead-naming Muck, by mis-gendering Muck, by satirizing his sexuality and names.

12. Not for this trans person, but you do you.

For a lot of trans folks, this tactic used by non trans people gives the impression that a speaker is untrustworthy.

Not saying you are -- just providing info.
