I'm looking for a location in Georgia called Kay Springs. A search does not show up an exact location. Possibly it is Cave Springs, but that doesn't fit as I've found several obituaries with Kay Springs, so it isn't just a typo for the person I am do research on. #genealogy #georgia

Transgender people were essential to Stonewall even happening. We cannot erase history.
The national park service is literally making their sites unreadable by simply deleting the word trans everywhere on the site. MarshabP Johnson's page appears to be down as well.

I found out that two of the doggos that I walk most days of the week are bilingual. They know English commands and Armenian commands. And the mom told me that one time she was walking the dogs and she told them something in Armenian and some people walking by said, "oh cool! They're bisexual!"
