    2023 Minnesota law Walz signed mandating free menstruation products in all public school restrooms used by students in grades four to 12.

    Yep, that’s a scarlet badge of honor in my book.

      And we also provide free breakfast and lunch to students. In his own words “what a monster!”

    Yet another example of their weird obsession with the female reproductive system.

      It’s not really weird if you look at it like their brains quit developing at 8 years old. Their entire platform is basically ‘vaginas are gross, school is dumb, I want a bigger allowance, and stranger danger’

        Fun fact: conservative brains have larger amygdalas, leading to greater response and sensitivities to fear and disgust.

        They also have smaller Anterior Cingulate Cortexes which relate to… Pattern recognition and pattern dissonance lol.

        So if you know conservatives with a strong fear and disgust response while also being literally incapable of seeing their own hypocrisy / cognitive dissonance… This is why.

        Republicans love developing 8 year old brains.

        So much that they will travel overseas and pay to have sex with it.

        It seems many of them got beat up in school and never got laid.

          Could’ve been quite the charming yaoi redemption arc, though. Aw, so sad they missed out. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Yeah I’m sure the monicker is just destroying poor Mr Walz. What’s next, “Free Food for the Kids Tim”? I’m sure he’d hate that!

    This doesn’t directly relate, but Iggy Pop once said he doesn’t mind to be seen cross dressing because he doesn’t consider it to be a negative thing to be a woman. They think Tampon Tim is a slam, because they think being compared to/associated with a woman is demeaning. Take note republican women, they don’t respect you.

      For a brief moment I thought you’d gotten Iggy Pop and Suzy/Eddie Izzard confused because I cross dressing might involve wearing a shirt, which Iggy pop isn’t known for

      But sure enough, it was Iggy Pop, him in a dress is probably the closest I’ve ever seen to him wearing a shirt.

    Shamelessly stolen joke but of course he’s Tampon Tim, aren’t tampons what you use to help stop a red wave?

    Can you imagine Ronald Reagan whipping out incredibly stupid and weird nicknames like that? The man was a terrible president and did real harm to the country, but at least he was able to talk like an actual grown-up.

    Seriously, can you imagine him suddenly dropping moronic nicknames for Carter or Mondale? The Republican party circa 1979 would have dumped him immediately and consigned him to the dustbin of history.

    And they would have called his antics “weird.”

    Oh no, he’s concerned with women’s Reproductive Rights, medical care, and hygiene! What a comprehensive list of the absolute worst qualities a person could have.
