Spent some time with the 19 year old Granddtr yesterday. This child doesn't have a mean bone in her body.
She was telling me about voting for the first time, and how upon feeding her ballot in, a poll worker, a woman basically watched her and saw her choice. She was not nice to my granddtr. My gay Granddtr who voted her interest.
Fuck these people. I have seen you are. I am not forgetting. Sorry, not sorry.

I'm sorry your granddaughter had that experience.
As a grandfather to a 20-yr-old trans grandson, I'm right with the "Fuck these people" crowd.
@slapout
I pray for them both and their safety. And all of ours.
All we can do, until we find our level, again.
@slapout
Keep your grandson as safe as you can and we all just hold on until this nightmare is over, hopefully.
Fortunately, it is not all dark for us. He relocated back to NY from Oklahoma, and is getting the care he needed. Even with his strong views of the state of politics, I've haven't seen him brighter in years.
I hope your granddaughter stays hopeful. We need the young to stay strong.
@slapout
If I have anything to do with it; she will.
@CinnamonGirlE I have no doubt.😉
@slapout @CinnamonGirlE (((💙💪🏽💙)))
To both of you. Thank you for your love for your children coupled with that fierce protection gene that never leaves. Being in a safe place to bloom makes my heart lighter (grandson in NY)
@slapout
That's wonderful, I am so happy to hear this for him. Hoping he absolutely soars!
