THE VAMPIRE GLAM ROCKER FROM HELL.

Like, everyone has their own boundaries and squicks and I'm not going to knock any individual reader for personally being uncomfortable reading about those aspects of it; and on the other hand, heck, I can see it maybe also ironically Taking The Edge Off/being Easier to focus on them and not What Exactly Is Happening In That Club Involving That Furry In That Scene; but I dunno, while I do agree the scene is disturbing, I feel like the Main reason for that is the What Is Happening, i.e. "one of the parties involved is a nearly-passed-out-drunk barely-more-than-a-kid who was looking increasingly uncomfortable with being there and who came as part of a(n all pretty drunk) group who were given admission despite obviously not really knowing what they were doing, and we're not told if the other two are there under much less alarming circumstances; the people running the place and staging this whole thing as 'entertainment' obviously sure wouldn't care if they are*". I would not have even guessed it was an SA scene based on a lot of how it's referenced.

Last week, the Trump administration quietly released a sweeping new federal rule that would use funding threats to force institutions across the country to reject transgender people. The 400-page proposed regulation would codify the administration's anti-trans executive orders into binding federal policy, imposing a blanket prohibition on federal funds going toward "gender ideology"

The proposed rule, formally titled "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance," rewrites the government-wide framework governing all federal grants across every agency. Among its most consequential provisions, it requires that before a federal grant recipient can receive money, the award must pass a "pre-issuance review" conducted by a political appointee—not a career expert or peer reviewer—to ensure it is "consistent with applicable law, Federal agency priorities, and the national interest." The regulation explicitly instructs these appointees to screen for "denial by the recipient of the sex binary in humans or the notion that sex is a chosen or mutable characteristic." [...] An institution that acknowledges transgender people exist—through its policies, its training, its healthcare, its bathroom access, its HR procedures, its name-change processes—could be deemed to "deny the sex binary" or to “support the notion that sex is mutable” and have its federal funding blocked.
