Sitting next to a couple on a coffee first date. And y’all, bless the human drive to love because it is SO hard to make those first connections. ALSO: he just revealed he’s a D&D DM and that is brave to share on a first date

64 days with no aid reaching Gaza. No food, water or medicine. Children are starving. Netanyahu’s extremist government now says it will occupy Gaza & put mercenaries in charge of distributing aid, instead of the UN and other aid groups. Despicable. No more US support for Netanyahu’s war machine.

ChattyCon would have moms and grandmas with baked goods, giving affirmations and hugs out to queer and trans folk who’ve been rejected by their family. Or really to anyone who needs to hear that they are beautiful and deserving of love.
