For those of you who watched the movie Gettysburg directed by Ron Maxwell, you will know that it is very flawed. There’s confederate propaganda, no gore (it’s a war movie, c’mon), only one black person who’s role is silent in the film, and a horrible representation of Pickett’s Charge.

But if you’ve watched it you know that there’s some hot men in there, you can learn quite a bit about the battle of Gettysburg from it (I’d suggest actually researching it though, don’t rely fully on this movie), and the queer-coded characters.

The characters are accidentally queer-coded (two in particular, Lo Armistead and Win Hancock), but there’s also some scenes that are… kinda 💅. Like the intense handshake between Reynolds and Buford.

So my question is; how the hell did Ron Maxwell accidentally queer-coded these characters so hard? I’m just wondering how that went down.

I’m sorry for this post, it’s nine o’clock AM and I’m at my mental limit

Do you think DeSantis would be a better president than Trump?

I think the flat tire on my car that I'm currently having replaced would be a better President than Donald Trump. I think that if you gathered up a bunch of the tree branches and other debris from the recent storms in California and built a home-made Groot, that would be a better President than Donald Trump. Not only do I think that AEW World Champion MJF would be a better President than Donald Trump, but he'd also somehow be less narcissistic and more tolerant of others than Trump.

So, yeah, it's not a terribly high mountain to climb.

Gettysburg In A Nutshell… coming out in 2056.

Nah not really. But I had lots of fun drawing this. From left to right is Thomas Chamberlain, George Meade (the one doing a 2016 dance move that I’m sure millennials still do), Robert E. Lee holding up a surrender flag, and George E. Pickett having a mental break down trying to find his division.

Rep. Maxwell Alejandro Frost (D-Fla.) said in an interview Sunday that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) drumbeat of policies targeting Black, transgender and LGBTQ people are “fascism.”

During an appearance on “CNN Newsroom,” host Jim Acosta asked Frost, the first Generation Z lawmaker to serve in Congress, about how Democrats should take on DeSantis.

“We take that on by number one being bold in our messaging and calling it out for what it is,” Frost told Acosta, saying that DeSantis was not attempting to improve education with his policies, but was “acting on scapegoating vulnerable communities due to his failures.”

“This is what we’re up against in Florida right now and it’s hard to keep track of because it seems like there’s a new victim, there’s a new bill every day,” he added.

“But we have to call it for what it is: He is abusing his power and using the state to target political opponents and political enemies. And there’s a word for that, and it’s fascism, and we have to be honest about it.”

According to The Washington Post, Republican lawmakers in Florida have proposed a new batch of legislation that includes proposals to require teachers to use pronouns matching children’s sex as assigned at birth, and establish a universal school voucher program.

DeSantis also signed the Parental Rights in Education bill, also referred to as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, into law last year, which prohibits state educators from talking about sexual orientation or gender identity in kindergarten through third grade and limits such instruction in other age groups.

And the Governor sparked criticism earlier this year after he barred the teaching of an Advanced Placement African American studies course in the state school curriculum.

Frost’s remarks come as DeSantis is widely seen as a leading contender for the GOP’s 2024 presidential nomination, though he had indicated an official announcement will not come until after the state’s legislative session.

“It’s just a problem for Florida now, sure. But in a few years, it can be a problem for the nation,” Frost said of DeSantis’s political tactics.

“We need everybody to pay attention and talk about how he’s targeting trans folks, targeting not just Black history, but Black people in general, which is American history, and targeting marginalized communities across this entire state,” Frost added.

“And here’s the sad, sad part, Jim. He’s doing it because it’s polling high for him in the Republican Party. And I think that says a lot about the state of that party right now.”

The Hill has reached out to DeSantis’s office for comment.
