Would also love to hear more about this. And what about the institutionalization or castration threats, how long was that really happening, any experiences?

So I watched all of Doom Patrol. It is very unique, not very super-hero-y, some humor and pathos, kinda slow moving, fair amount of LGBT content (my favorite character is Gary) though a bit idiotic to keep Matt Bomer wrapped in bandages most of the time!!! Also caught up on Jon Oliver. For some reason (drunk but NOT DRUNK ENOUGH) I watched the Birds of Prey (Harley Quinn) movie. DO NOT RECOMMEND. FOR ANYBODY, except maybe an enemy. Liking the options on HBO Max, seems worth it, will eventually start Raised by Wolves. But first I wanted to watch The Boys over on Amazon Prime. First episode seemed mostly slow and pointless. Also finally got around to Knives Out. Pretty good, though that accent (why was Daniel Craig channeling Kevin Spacey?!) was stupid and the stuff related to the center of the story was obviously all wrong.

I've been meaning to subscribe to HBO Max, Raised By Wolves will probably make me do it! Though I also want to see Doom Patrol, and the HBO staples like Jon Oliver.

I saw that story too, though the examples in it didn't seem particularly bad. I think that most liberals comfort and acceptance of trans people has evolved over the last 10 years, and that few of us would look great if the past was brought forward. Further, it's a comedian's job to be edgy, and to take today's most progressive standard and judge something made years ago against it... what's the point? Where Randy was (and many other liberals used to be) is still head and shoulders above where right-wingers are NOW, so by all means, let's flagellate *each other* for not being woke enough 5 or 10 years ago while *they* continue to do their damnedest to drag society backwards.
