Sounds like a closet-case to me. If you have to justify your own (professed) sexual relations with the potential or reproduction, you either have not had a lot of good sex or you're in denial about what good sex is.

Pride events face budget shortfalls as US corporations pull support ahead of summer festivities After years of sponsoring LGBTQ+ Pride events around the country, some companies are pulling their financial support.

And this is why #Pride marches and celebrations should never become dependent on fair-weather corporations who will cower from a fascist authoritarian government for the sake of their shareholders' wealth.

As a New Yorker, there’s nothing more satisfying than ranked-choice voting for five people you’ve never heard of before this mayoral race, so that the ones you have heard of don’t win.

David Souter, Supreme Court justice favoring judicial restraint, dies at 85 On the high court from 1990 to 2009, he saw his role as one of quiet resistance against excess and dramatic change.

RIP Justice Souter

You were a good jurist.

Tornado victims blocked from federal recovery aid after Trump denied request | CNN Trump’s disaster denial follows his executive order seeking to shift the burden of response and recovery from the federal government onto states.

There it is… and there’s no schadenfreude here, only pity.

Marriott’s CEO spoke out about DEI. The next day, he had 40,000 emails from his associates After Trump’s executive order banning DEI, Marriott CEO Anthony Capuano stood by the hotelier’s values.

β€œWe welcome all to our hotels and we create opportunities for allβ€”and fundamentally those will never change. The words might change, but that’s who we are as a company.”

Is this the CEO everyone has been wanting to stand up?

CISA extends funding to ensure 'no lapse in critical CVE services' CISA says the U.S. government has extended MITRE's funding to ensure no continuity issues with the critical Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program.

CISA did the right thing.... this time. And only for 11 months.

No MITRE CVEs after today. A new non-profit will take on this work, but funding is not clear yet. Talk about waiting to the last minute. This has profound consequences to the #cybersecurity community.

More chaos from the US government. We should all be worried.

Every importer that has a tariff slapped on their goods, when reselling to the American public, should add the tariff to the receipt. That way consumers see exactly what the Trump #tradewar is costing them.

If they did this, the #tariffs would end by summer.

Days after the Signal leak, the Pentagon warned the app was the target of hackers A Pentagon-wide advisory that went out one week ago warned against using Signal, the messaging app, even for unclassified information.

They knew better. And if they weren’t the President’s sycophants they’d be fired or in prison.

β€œYet these are Cabinet-level people in our government, and yet not one of them ever said, 'Why are we on Signal?'" β€”John Bolton

I can’t believe I’m agreeing with John Bolton.
