We're still figuring out the rest of the July tour schedule, but we've added Saturday morning Revolution tours for July! Come think seriously about revolution this summer... fullstorybaltimore.tours/our-tours/#r...

Talking to my dad in LA this afternoon about the ICE raids that happened in the area yesterday. He is so enraged, he can’t formulate words—and he can’t seem to understand why Americans aren’t connecting the dots that the power to disappear immigrants grants the power to disappear everyone else.

Ok I'm at the festival, and had some amazing boozy tropical sorbet, and this electric guitar girlie just did a grunge cover of Cher's Believe

havin a tuna treat

Dog sitting apparently means being sat on by dog

Check out walking tours that will have you seriously thinking about revolution this summer! Link to tix below 👇🏼

But the weather's gonna be hot in July, even in the mornings, so come on this tour sooner if you're concerned about that!

Tomorrow

4 days away and 30 percent away from my goal if anyone could please help

Thank you everyone for receiving my lil poem with open arms and full hearts 💖 I hope I can continue to bring you many more queer forward words to enjoy (tho I will admit LoM is set to break your heart and then equally mend it after)✨

Unfortunately still relevant

Orioles Pride Night activities have been announced! They are still doing a full Pride Night! The email also says “immersive Pride decorations” and I’m looking forward to seeing what they do this year. The last few have been really good!

this helps nobody in the moment but maybe someone will be prepared: using milk as a CS/CN/tear gas rinse will just get milk and bacteria in your eyes. bring water. wear clothes you are ready to destroy and don't lift anything over your face or eyes to take it off. cut clothes off if you have to

Really delightful to be among these submissions, Baltimore is the place where I was first able to live my Pride out and for that (and so many more reasons) it's a uniquely special for me 💖

5 years ago brandon scott called a medic while my partner and i administered aid to a teen girl who got gassed at a rally and our police spending per resident was the highest in the country at $800+/resident. now brandon scott is mayor & idk if it's the highest but police spending is $1000+/resident

In better news, I nabbed a copy of the new issue of @baltimorebeat.bsky.social while dropping off overdue books (oops) at the Pratt, and so far my favorite part is @mustachebabs.com 's really lovely poem

Goddammit

HOLY SHIT this whole thread

After 15 displacements, we now live in a tent with no supplies😢 You can help us by donation or share, only 5$ can make difference..we need your to survive🙏❤️

Stad Amsterdam, being an ally…

Y'all, I just went to the thrift store to get a buttondown shirt for my kid's ("Sunday best" required 🙄) pre-K graduation, and they had a big Pride display out front with this mannequin wearing a guy's hat and a t-shirt that says "I love my trans boyfriend" on it and I legit started crying!

WHERE. WHERE is the bus 😭

look at this

My sister just told me I should come to the hampden festival because there's a bunch of stuff I'd really like and then proceeded to send me a picture of a piece of art I own. 😂

Work daughter complained about men coming to her desk to bitch about stuff and I told her to just take a pad out her bag and hold it and they'll leave. 😭😭😭 She did it and three men stopped mid sentence and left her desk at the same time. Fjdkdkdksksjdnd Making men uncomfortable >>>>>>>>>

Today is Odai's birthday . Despite the pain and hunger, I tried to make Odai happy on his birthday and to ease his pain from the quadcopter injury. I couldn't buy him a cake but by candles and made him happy. Can you send a gift to Odai to provide him food and medicine? gofund.me/d6418ba2

I can see you bro
