Israeli forces continue to pound Gaza as outrage grows over the killings of starving Palestinians seeking food aid.

I have marked up the #BBC article on "What it Feels Like For a Girl." I can only guess what Paris Lees feels like right now with some of the anti trans garbage that has been graffitied all over what should be a positive article the day before Pride Month, some of which slurs her directly.

The importance of treating Trans Youth w/ puberty blockers is to avoid treating them as Adults with expensive surgery to remove the effects of puberty. No child should need facial surgery as an adult because a politician needed] a moral panic to control their voters. It hurts as bad as it looks.

Where we are in history RIGHT NOW is a place we’ve been before. The below plaque speaks to a pivotal moment in our history, and someone that had the courage to speak against blind hatred, in the face of what we say we stand for. @georgetakei.bsky.social knows. We can’t let history repeat.

I am Mexican and I didn’t learned about this guy till I was in COLLEGE. This topics are important. Learning about the past is important cause there’s always excuses in the present on why being queer is abnormal cause it’s new, but it isn’t

Even by the enormously low standards of our current political establishment in the UK, this just beggars belief.

Also known, in other circles, as Dmitri Shostakovich.

Methods: "This study used the data of 1,697 trans youth drawn from a large survey of LGBTQA+ 14–21-year-olds. Regression analyses examined how feeling supported to affirm gender medically, legally, or socially, was associated with mental health and well-being outcomes."

🏳️‍⚧️ new research confirms, with 🇦🇺’s largest dataset of trans & gender diverse youth, that even just being supportive of trans young people’s hopes to affirm their gender helps their mental health. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Celebrate those who came before us. Absolutely celebrate that you’re still here. But the most important thing to do during Pride Month (and always) - especially for allies, is to fight for LGBT equality, and a safer tomorrow for all those we pave the way for. Never give up. Never concede ground. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Spare us the fake outrage.

We can play football with a nation engaged in genocide. But we can't play football against trans people who have done nothing wrong. The Football Association is a disgrace.

AP 1 Jun 25 -- (Apparently incredibly tiny) Trans athlete AB Hernandez shares gold w/ 2 cis women at CA track meet. All 3 cleared same high jump height & shared gold. rb.gy/ljuoc8 The World As We Know It did not come to an end altho there had been rumors to the contrary. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

Pride Month commemorates the Stonewall Riots, which began in the early hours of 28 June 1969. Patrons of the Stonewall Inn, a mob-run, low rent gay bar in the West Village of Manhattan said, “Enough!” to Police raids. Prominent among the rioters were trans women, drag queens, dykes and sex workers.

1/ Today on the 1st day of pride month and the day before Emily’s birthday the FA ban on trans women in football starts. This ban has broken my daughter in a way I didn’t think she could break. The pain and sorrow she felt at the end of her last game was soul destroying to witness.

Lately, I've been reminding myself that 75 million voters chose Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. We didn't defeat Trumpism at the ballot box. But remembering that 75 million US adults rejected hatred and fear helps me stay encouraged during these difficult days, weeks, and months.

Israeli military drones told Palestinians to go to a specific area to collect aid, and when they got there the military drones opened fire on them. Hind Khoudary reporting.

Bigger defence budget including nukes. Smaller welfare payments. Remind me why you voted Labour.

Goodnight everybody

“Many were cauld and two were frozen” 🤣 Classic Rikki Fulton 😁 youtube.com/watch?v=qr5s...

And the @scottishgreens.org are ever welcome amongst us. 👍

Well done to all the youngsters who braved the Scottish weather at junior parkrun this morning ☔️ Hope everyone has a good cup of tea in hand now ☕️

Absolutely not. Trans people just want to be left to live their lives. JK Rowling is using her vast wealth to try and crush them. There is no equivalence and, as Desmond Tutu observed, if you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.

Pride month starts today 🏳️‍🌈 What a perfect day to tell brands that they can't call themselves LGBTQ+ allies and fund GB News. Send them a clear message: back pride, not hate 👇 action.goodlawproject.org/pick-a-side-...
