y’know what fuck It im showing up to the [redacted] meeting in full veil and dress and I’m going to the [redacted] later dressed the same. can’t be much more disarming to right wing nuts than what they perceive to be a white woman in formalwear. wish me luck.

edit: survived. only directly heckled by two or three insane maga men all of whom seemed to get uncomfortable and stopped calling the guys around me faggots when I was looking at them. conclusion: being watched by a white woman in formalwear embarrasses white boys. notes for next time: amp up the ‘disappointed grandmother’ vibes.

I can still do the customer service voice. #to bind or not to bind…that is the question…. #probably won’t matter w a coat but I’ll see
