I just want to take a moment to thank the transgender witches for their hard work. Keep it up, you heroes of the new world!

It’s hard work so thank you. I had to find like… 8 frogs for a ritual today.
Have you ever tried to find 8 frogs before?
Ally here. Happy to supply as many frogs as you need. I'm really good at catching them, eight is no problem
Love you, transgender witches
Now, please finish the half-done job of turning Ted Cruz into a toad.
I pledge allegiance to the transgender witches
I'm with the transgender witches. I wish them unlimited mana for their curses.
Oh my god. Where? Tell me where the transgender witches are please. You know, so I can avoid them, or whatever.
They’re in their covens doing girl kisses
Can confirm, kissing sloppy while casting spells.
It's a part of the spell, actually

Wouldn't that just be the transfem ones? The transmasc ones would be doing manly witch kisses, surely :)
Republicans don’t think about trans men. They will write laws that also affect them, but they rally against trans woman in women’s bathrooms or women’s sports etc.
But yes we need warlock kisses too!

Me too although I would just want to hang out they sound awesome
I mean. I'm trans. And I do have a really awesome wizard/apothecary outfit I wear to ren faires. So I suppose I could in a sense call myself a transgender witch. And while I'm not really into wicca myself, I definitely have threatened to put curses on my students before.

"How about we all come together and say, 'Let's stop attacking pedophiles?'". -Ted Cruz 2025
And right now, if you’re a left-wing transgender witch, you hate Donald Trump
Dick... I'm a straight white CIS man and I fucking detest Donald Trump
This. I've detested this asshole since the 80s. And there are so fucking many of us now. If the demo he was talking about were the only people that absolutely detest donnie dipstick, his numbers would be in the 90+ percent range.
And it so ain't.
Same. The first time I saw the guy he just gave me that vibe. I knew he was bad news. He's never proven me wrong.
The the same Ted Cruz who =>looks at loooong list of stupid bs<=...
So Ted Cruz huh?
Looks like they seriously ran out of real arguments if they have to resort to "witchcraft" to explain why they lose.
It also speaks to the dumbing down of our culture, and that they aren't trying to bring us back to an earlier period of America so much as the dark ages.
What some of them consider "The good old time", when black people were slaves, and witches were burned, indeed. Let's party like 1699!
no longer content with just undoing the civil rights acts of the 1960s, maga fucks are now reaching all the way back to the 1690s.
So i misread the title.
I thought he was saying the transgender witch hunt was the problem, like they went too far on their bigotry, and i was like damn, well the saying goes a broken clock is right twice a day.
But nah, I just misread it.
I will personally buy drinks or cook a meal of their choice for any transgender witches of my acquaintance that let me join them in casting a curse on Ted Cruz personally.
I was just saying, I'll bring the trans voodoo dolls!
Republicans appear cursed because their party is in power
No, it's Americans who appear cursed because their party is in power.
Are the transgender witches in the room with us right now, Ted? Cause if they are I'm gonna have a drink with them, they sound fun.
I actually know one via a friend. She seems cool.
Ritual Black Magick and Hermeticism require the novice to contact, explore, accept, and exhalt their most opposite sexual identity, so this has always been a thing.
Grant Morrison has some really interesting experiences with this, but we are all some varying percentages of part male, part female, and part neither. Identifying as any one of these strongly and entirely while renouncing the others is essentially denying your soul/spirit a fair chance to develop fully in this lifetime. You don’t have to commit to anything if you don’t want to, but as a man, you can’t understand how to treat others until you’ve walked a mile in their heels, skate shoes, cowboy slippers, weighted diving boots, lacy pink booties or wooden clogs. ( I think that covers it )

GOPers are cursed by the response to their own traitorous actions.
That's what you call dialectical wicca.
Lol. These warriors of god gonna lose to crossdressing practitioners of the mystical arts? Way to go, losers!

time is a flat circle. i can just hear larry nichol's gravelly voice as he explains to alex jones how hilary clinton is in a coven with linda bloodworth-thomason doing blood magic.
edit: adding a shoutout to my fellow wonks. remember, life is very fragile.
LOL, was he the one always talking about how Bill was running a drug importation operation out of Arkansas' Governor's mansion?
The fucking 90s were wild, JFC. And a precursor to all this shit. All that fringe shit from back then was mainstreamed by 2015....
yes, that was ol' larry. the 90s were wild. it's kinda wild to me now how it all turned out. like some of what aj went on about turned out to be true except it was the people he was for who were doing it. and then there were the patriots screaming about government overreach and they're the same people who think ice is great now.

And I blame Ted Cruz.
I feel like Old Gods of Appalachia should use this as a writing prompt for a one off non-canon episode.
Also, listen to Old Gods of Appalachia, that show is so fucking good.
