Their definition of “drag” is anyone dressing opposite of their assigned gender at birth. That’s every trans person, and anyone gender-nonconforming.
This bill isn’t just about drag. It’s about erasing queer people from public visibility.
Arkansas senators have voted to pass a bill that classifies drag-related events as “adult-oriented businesses,” which will outlaw performances on public property or “where a minor can view” them.
It now heads to the majority-Republican state House.

People keep telling me about separation of concerns, but I am very concerned about many things all at the same time, and I wish people would accept me for who I am

good pull requests serve as additional documentation for our code.
as software engineers who rely on every piece of documentation we can get, we would do well to treat the writing of PRs as an invaluable craft—one that is worth slowing down for and taking the time to do well.

the amount of code you write is inversely proportional to the number of times you say "headcount" in a week.
