I'm old enough to say with confidence that there's been a sea change in American attitudes toward queer people since 1994. Corporate recognition of Pride celebrations, federal recognition of same-sex marriage, an openly gay man being discussed seriously as a presidential candidate—such thing were fantasies then. I know, because I talked about them and was laughed at! Back then, the idea that AIDS was an apocalyptic plague sent by God specifically to punish the gays was fairly mainstream. Conversion therapy was not thought of as hateful or abusive. "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" was considered a reasonable compromise. I could go on. We still have work to do, but we've made tremendous progress!
I was on a call earlier with Rep. Al Green, Free Speech for People and Women’s March. Rep. Green mentioned he’d be filing additional articles of impeachment against both trump and vance. Here’s the link to the replay: https://www.youtube.com/live/_-gkuxOfS7k?si=ZUNgs2LXY8Pw14YI

My friend is a massage therapist on the AIDS lifecycle ride!!!
I did that in the late 90s and it is still one of the best experiences of my life
So cool!

💌!? Does EM blasting the budget really mean anything to anyone?
I mean it means the kids are fighting, but otherwise no. It is nice to see the Republican Party imploding though
It means nothing
Thank you for posting these. It is infuriating to see people online screaming “Dems are spineless”, “corporate Dems”, etc.
