Race isn't biological.
Edit: I will leave the original comment, but as I realized after a conversation in this thread, unclear humor in dark times is in poor taste. I don't support either sign, and I deeply want everyone to be able to freely express who they are and how they feel without discrimination or fear. Things are scary for our trans relations, and now is not the time to be unclear about one's support. My apologies.
Thanks to @[email protected] for their understanding and generosity of spirit for taking the time to state what should have been obvious to me. Honest mistake yall.
Woooosh
I think my joke was too deep for you, sorry. Thanks for owning it.
It was so poorly executed that no one recognized it as a joke.
You can't win em all. But, yes, I realize that. I didn't put a ton of thought into it. In general, that's fine. But right now, when our trans and non-binary friends and family are under siege and lives are at risk, I will try to be more thoughtful. I reserve the right to make jokes that land poorly and ill-timed sarcasm, but I'll try to do it less often on topics that relate to people that have increasing fear for their lives and well being.
