New blog post: What do the kangaroo moms in "Work It Out Wombats," Nightshade of "Transformers: EarthSpark," Velma from "Scooby-Doo," and the cast of "Steven Universe" have in common? All would face anti-LGBTQ censorship (especially trans/nonbinary folk) if Trump's FCC head has his way.

While Brendan Carr is "only" targeting trans/nonbinary folk for his proposed censorship, I can safely assume this will get extended to *everyone* under the LGBTQ label. So good luck, Luz ("The Owl House"), Luna Loud ("The Loud House"), and Mr. Ratburn ("Arthur")?

@dtgeek Not to mention one of my daughter's favorites a few years ago in The Loud House, both with Luna and Clyde's dads.
