Since it is Juneteenth, I will share a lil something...

My ancestors were slaves in Texas & were freed on June 19, 1865. They came together to meet with other ex-slaves & formed the Limestone County 19th of June Organization. They bought 30 acres of land on Lake Mexia.

Same.

Pride flag and a banner that says "Trans People Exist."

In the atrium of the ship. I'm really proud to be part of this cruise.

Apricot tree is in full bloom with the bees busy pollinating away! #springflowers

Close-up of lilac buds opening with a few out of focus branches and a fence in the background.

Zoomed out photo of same opening lilac buds with branches and fence in background.

Whole lilac bush with grass on ground around it with fence in background.

First year of buds for my lilac bush #springflowers

white people are the worst.
sincerely,
a white person

My friend: I'm Native, but everyone mistakes me for a white guy.
Me, a white trans man: That's the goal, right!?
😃 *Fist bump*

HAIRCUTS DON'T HAVE ASSIGNED GENDERS! Neither do colors, clothing styles, decorations, hobbies, etc., etc.

🔥🥵

sorry I'm late I became mentally untethered from time itself

And I can guarantee you no one at their offices will try to help unless you have an appointment (about a month out in my area) or sit for the entire day (and maybe not even then). The security guard who doesn't work for SSA made that clear, as did no one else being visible or trying to help me.

Message me if you need a friendly but aggressively queer and I can send you a 1.25" button.

$1 donation for postage and supplies would be great, but not necessary, so ask for my venmo when you message if you can do that.

...

I guess, thanks? It's good to know we're not alone, but it also makes me want to cry for the state of our world...

Okay...but why is there so much body hair!?

Consequences for actions!? What's next? People wanting to be treated with common decency on the reg!?

Did it get more laughs the second time?

Ketchup On Walls Alert: HIGH

A tweet from Ivan Alcantara with the text: 'I've been preparing for their arrival'. Below this text, there is an image of a child wearing a red sweater standing in front of a door, holding a glowing red trap. Below this image, there is another tweet from Sam Stein with the text: 'Reports are that DOGE staffers are now at NIH'.

I shouldn’t laugh at this but I somehow needed to.

Shout out to the gas station attendant in central Washington who was outraged about the asshole who glared at me for being trans while existing. I hope you have a great day. ♥️

I hope the aggressive transphobe has the life he deserves.

They've removed a lot of queer information (health & science along with safety issues), and specifically removed the T (like the UK did to their gov sites as well, I think in '21) on State Department sites.

Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Most articles in their library seem to be viewable without a password...unless they have LGBT topics...

Children & Families LGBT adoption funding information

Youth dot gov site no longer has an LGBT specific section for depression and suicide, and likely no reference anywhere else

Global Equality Fund...

VA still has LGBTQ+, but Health and Human Services has forgotten about all of us

Resources for LGB Prospective Adoptive Parents Resources for LGB Prospective Adoptive Parents

Prospective Adoptive Parents Resources as well

LGB Travel Information Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex travelers can face unique challenges when traveling abroad.

They've taken the T off on the Department of the State .gov site in multiple places.

I am floored that the Youth Risk Behavioral Survey appears to have been erased from government sites. This survey is decades-old and a vital source of information about young Americans' sexual health, mental health, drug use, etc.

Red states have also increasingly dropped out of it in recent years.
