It's the last day of pride month but tomorrow I will still be queer & I will still be promoting my pride pieces & small business! Why? Cause allyship & support doesn't stop after 30 days! Support your queer community small businesses all year long! 🫶🏼 Thank you for your continued support! 🥹🥰
Still, on the down news, the bill has passed the Senate, and the bill will still devastate ALL communities if it returns to the House and they pass it.

Incredible news for trans people - the Medicaid provision is out of the Trump horror bill. It did not require a point of order vote, and instead, Republicans pulled it out on their own, likely knowing they would lose the vote.
Good job to everyone for calling their Senators.
Israel killed 33 Palestinian, including 2 artists, Amna Al-Salmi & Ismail Abu Hatab, in an airstrike on a café in Gaza. The café offered internet, making it a hotspot for journalists & artists.
Israel’s targeting of journalists & artists is a war crime.
If a sitting president can openly muse about arresting and disappearing someone who is likely to become mayor of the country's largest city, while also getting the funding for a massive secret police, it'd be hard to find sufficient evidence to qualify that country as a democracy.
UPenn can fuck right off.
There is no mental illness that specifically makes you harass trans people while having no negative impact on your own life. That's a choice.
“Currently just 40% of drinking water production facilities remain functional…Without fuel, every one of these will stop operating within weeks...If the current more than 100-day blockade on fuel coming into Gaza does not end, children will begin to die of thirst.” www.unicef.org/press-releas...

🧵 NYC: Zohran Mamdani is an extraordinary political talent and he CAN win this.
What a signal that would send to the country and to the world.
If you have been on the fence, this is the moment to go all in.
Grant Park in downtown Los Angeles, full of union members peacefully singing and talking and carrying their signs.
For those who live elsewhere, this is the heart of downtown #LosAngeles. My friends are here. My union is here (sup @wgawest.bsky.social). My teenager is here. People are passing out pastries & singing & praying. All we want is for our neighbors not to be kidnapped off the streets.
The problem of sex testing is not with the tests per se, but with the assumption that any singular marker of sex (including chromosomes) is adequate to classify people into a two sex system.
Convo btwn my wife & a 9 yr old this wknd:
Kid: “you got really close to [their] face are you [siblings]?”
Wife: “we’re actually married”
Kid: pauses then says “that makes more sense”, grabs a treat & skips away
Kids are precious. Adults ruin them w/our prejudice. Let’s stop that sh*t. #HappyPride
Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor.
He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down.
The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him.
This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies
Jonathon Joss was Comanche and White Mountain Apache
HE HAS BEEN OF THAT LAND SINCE BEFORE IT WAS EVEN MEXICO AND LONG BEFORE IT WAS TEXAS
I swear for god I need yall to to have an OUNCE OF HISTORY before you make words
fuck homophobia
Be who you are, love who you love and love yourself. #HappyPrideMonth
"The World Food Programme (WFP) has said it is “shocked and alarmed” that its premises in southwestern Sudan have been hit by repeated shelling from the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), as the paramilitary group wages a brutal civil war, now in its third year..."

3 additional eye-witnesses from the scene describe Israeli military fire in this AP article and 1 additional witness from Nasser hospital describes tens of patients with gunshot wounds and many more being treated: apnews.com/article/isra...
There is a straight line from when people started decrying diversity statements as "political tests" to now replacing them with actual political tests.
In most sports, height is not a limiting factor, and there is great diversity in heights across ci$ populations, especially among elite athletes. It is clear that the average trans women is taller than the average ci$ women, but their % muscle mass & fat mass is equivalent!
You are so loved and appreciated friend!
Spent the weekend in community with @todos-math.bsky.social folx and it provided some much needed healing in our broken world. Can’t wait for the 2026 conference. It’s gonna be 🔥

Cops @ Pride is the antithesis of what our trancestors & queer ancestors fought for. They fought AGAINST the cops, cops that continue to systemically marginalize & harm us. We must not sanitize queer/ trans history & instead be radically inclusive of the most marginalized, following Marsha’s lead.
