I heard they're rebooting Punky Brewster; I loved that show when I was a child, but if the T hijacks it and turn it into Wokey Brewster, then all forms of artistic expression are dead to me.

Ugh. Honestly they probably will. It's so hard to escape this crap because it worms its way into almost everything nowadays. Hollywood knows it can cash in on trans representation and it will do so in any way it can. I'm glad Vanya isn't my favorite on UA (Five biased here) but I'm not looking forward to the crap they're gonna pull now that eLliOt is playing her.

If she's a man then I'm the Reluctant Dragon.

Even when it comes at the expense of gay lives?

I would say so, yeah. There's a show called Shameless I think (I've never watched it but I hear it discussed a lot) where there's a gay male character who's painted as the bad guy for not wanting to sleep with a transman. That's the message they're pushing. If you're gay and you won't accept trans with open arms you're the scum of the earth. They will pick trans over gay every time if it means more woke points.

I knew they would from the moment I first read Myra Breckinridge.
