Remember in Blues Brothers when they end up at the Nazi rally and the point isn't even that Jake really hates Nazis, it's that Nazis are about the biggest losers that anyone could imagine. They are portrayed as completely pathetic dead-ender assholes.

Or in the Rocketeer when the mobsters find our the Sinclair guy is a Nazi and join forces with the FBI to stop them because Nazis are clearly the worst thing.

Or when Christopher Plummer rips the Nazi flag in two in Sound of Music.

None of these films were making bold political statements. The Nazis were the bad guys because that was something that everyone in the audience could agree one. Dunking on Nazis was a guaranteed crowd pleaser.

When the hell did we stop agreeing on something so simple and self-evident as Nazis Are Fucking Losers?

If you are considering gender harmonization surgery (of any kind), but just not sure if it's the right decision, here is the best way to figure out whether you actually want it or not:

First thing's first: Take the first step right now.

Here's the reality: Wait times are absolutely horrendous so get on the list. Today. Now.

All the rest of this can happen during the year or however long you are forced to wait. Get on the list.

Call around, set up some consultations right now. Put all the "But which minor variation of the surgery do I want?" thoughts out of your head. Get on a list.

Then get on another surgeon's list for a different minor variation. Then get on another for the third minor variation you're thinking about.

Get on the list. Today. Now.

Because it's going to be like two years before you are in surgery, and you can do all your hemming and hawing during that time.

I've sent this email to art directors I've worked with at Wizards of the Coast. I hope other Magic or D&D artists will do the same or similar.

My 6YO: I like how she dresses.
Me: How THEY dress. They're non binary, they prefer "they" instead of "she".
6YO What is non bi .. bina ...
ME: Non binary. It means they don't feel like a girl or a boy, they just feel like themselves. "Boy" or "girl" doesn't really fit for them.
6YO: Oh, ok!

IT'S THAT EASY, FOLKS.

I've just made myself giggle. Instead of calling the current wave of prudishness "puriteens" we should call them the "tail-i-ban"
