I know I’m never on, but I encourage all of you to watch and share this video as much as possible. This is an Australian reporter covering the LA protests. You can see, on camera, the cop turn and purposely aim at her before firing. This narrative that it’s all the protestors is a clear lie.

🧵 THREAD: This #PrideMonth, don’t forget that the fight for queer liberation didn’t start or end with marriage equality.

💪✨ We need to keep fighting for our rights.

Here’s are a few examples:

💋 Before the 2003 Supreme Court ruling in Lawrence v. Texas, same-smex smexual activity was illegal in fourteen U.S. states, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. military

👶 Before 2015, LGBTQ+ couples couldn’t adopt in all 50 states. Before the Supreme Court ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, laws varied wildly by state.

🏳️‍🌈 Before 1973, the American Psychiatric Association listed homosmexuality as a ‘mental illness.’ In December 1973, a vote was successfully held to remove it.

🗳️ Before 1974, there were no openly gay elected officials. That changed with Kathy Kozachenko, who became the first openly gay American elected to public office in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

🎖️ Before 2011, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” banned LGBTQ+ people from serving openly in the military.

💍 Before 2015, LGBTQ+ couples couldn’t get married in all 50 states. At the time, laws varied by state, and while many states allowed for civil unions for same-sex couples, it created a separate but equal standard.

💼 Before 2020, employers could legally discriminate against queer and trans employees. It wasn’t until the U.S. Supreme Court held that an employer who fires or otherwise discriminates against an individual simply for being gay or transgender is in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I think this is also important for people who are young enough to not remember when we didn't have these protections.

While it's amazing that some folks can't imagine a world without these rights, it's important to be aware of how nascent these wins are, and by extension, how fragile they are

Daniel Sloss SAID IT THANK YOU DANIEL SLOSS

[shy-retiring-oxford-chaps]

Reblogging again now that Russell Brand's ugly mug is back in the news to remind everyone that in the 2023 Times expose on his abusive behaviour, Daniel Sloss was the only male comedian willing to be named and quoted like "yeah that dude's a scumbag and women have been warning each other about him for years."

I saw these 2 memes seperately and thought they really should be posted together, the second as a response to the first.

The UK just confirmed guidance that bans trans people from bathrooms and I'm scared

For folks not aware:

Single-sex toilets must exclude transgender people, says EHRC

Updated code of practice covering England, Wales and Scotland also relates to changing rooms and follows supreme court ruling

You've every right to be scared, and please give yourself space to grieve and be angry.

But also start taking steps to protect yourself -- map out existing gender neutral toilets, see what businesses are going to step up as allies, check if you qualify for a RADAR key, have discussions with family and friends on what to do if you are confronted over toilet use, and put together a "cis disguise" for when you need to be out in public in high risk situations.

A lot of "allies" right now are going to demand/joke that trans people should put their bodies at risk right now and storm bathrooms of whatever gender in protest, but try to block those folks out and focus on your immediate safety, first. There will continue to be opportunities to organize and offer mutual aid.

Stay strong. 🫂
