Today is the anniversary of Alan Turing’s suicide, in 1954. Turing was the father of modern computing. His codebreaking helped the Allies to win WWII. Arrested for being gay, he chose chemical castration over a prison sentence. He lost his security clearance, as all homosexuals were deemed a risk.

Harvey Milk served in the Navy during the Korean War, but was discharged in 1955, not for any misconduct, but because he was gay. And now his name is being removed from a Navy vessel, once again not because of anything he did wrong, but because he was gay. It's the same hate from the same scum.

I've decided to turn any hate towards this into a positive. Every time I get flipped off or thumbs down for this flag I'm gonna make a 3$ donation to www.thetrevorproject.org at the end of the month. #Pride #QueerTrucker #TheTrevorProject #LGBTQ

This year we’re not doing Rainbow Capitalism. This year we buy small and queer. Here’s a list of 10 of my favorites you can buy from, with links, plus myself, as I, too, am small and queer! Queer folks, feel free to add your shop in the comments and share widely!

This is beautful. And so simple. Queer people are scared. This is all you have to do as a cis het person to help take some of that fear away.

Kady Grass, the young woman who was savagely beaten in an Illinois McDonalds simply for being #LGBTQ, has set up a GoFundMe to help with medical and legal bills. The two suspects, 19-year-old John Kammrad of Elgin and an unIDed 17-year-old, have been captured. www.gofundme.com/f/support-ka...

We are not under invasion. There is no justification for suspending our constitutional rights. Every single American should speak out against this, loudly and forcefully.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 55 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Ohio moves to criminalize drag — and any public performance where clothing does not match the performer's "biological sex." HB249 will make it a felony for drag and trans performers to perform at Pride, expanding its definition of "harmful to minors" to include even cis men wearing makeup.

Menendez Jr: They feel no weight of the law and no restraint on what they should be doing. And that was shown in broad daylight today when they not just arrested the Mayor of Newark but when they put their hands on two members of congress standing behind me. How is this acceptable?

to mark trans history week, I want to showcase some of the best recent work that's been published in medieval and early modern trans studies; most of it is open access, so you can freely download and read it without access to an institutional library. 🏳️‍⚧️🧵

Emily Feiner was forcibly removed from GOP Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall after she asked her so-called "moderate" congressman to stand up to Donald Trump's authoritarian power grab. There's a great pushback happening across the entire country — even in Republican held districts.

Bravo! 👏🏼 This is what is needed in defence of our trans siblings. We need more companies and bosses to not just show their support, but be active in supporting, and protecting trans people, and treating them with the dignity they rightly deserve! #TransRightsAreHumanRights 🏳️‍⚧️

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect. This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus. www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docke...
