So with the FBI and CIA now monitoring social media for stuff they don’t like, is this the only place we can come to bitch about Trump without wondering if we’ll wake up to jackboots kicking in our door.

LGBTQ+ Film Festivals are so important. Because as governments try to erase our lives and our contributions, one of our biggest acts of resistance is to keep telling our stories. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

So we've just been through our caps range and removed all the red ones.
Yep. All gone. Not a single variant or any cap left in red. We'd hate to think that from a distance anyone might suspect one of our customers of being in that terrible cult. We say no to red caps!

The mainstream media demonisation of the trans community must be stopped. If you want to have an opinion about trans people go and speak to trans people. Otherwise your opinion is invalid.

Happy Galentines Day lovely people. This is a day to celebrate women’s friendship. So leave the boys at home and go out with your friends today to let them know they’re loved. But especially the trans women in your life, who will need some extra support just now. ❤️

If they think erasing our celebrations from their calendars is going to stop us they have learned nothing from Obi-Wan. ‘You can’t win Donald. If you strike us down we will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine. We’ll be bigger, gayer, queerer and louder than you ever thought possible🌈’

The decision by the 🍊felon to take over The KennedyCentre is horrifying. It’s fascism 101. The arts have always, and will always, be a place of joy, where our community feels safe and we are free to expresses ourselves. It’s going to be up to all of us to promote queer art and support queer artists.

We had 55,000 people at Trans Pride London last year. It was the largest Trans Pride match in history. We’ve all seen what’s happening in the US. We all know it could easily happen in the UK. This year let’s make it 100,000 and send Trump, Starmer and Streeting a message they can’t ignore 🏳️⚧️

A very Queer Happy Birthday today to the glorious Alan Cumming. I suspect everyone knows him and hopefully loves him, his list of films, TV shows and awards is huge, and he's currently enjoying being the host of The Traitors US.

A very Happy Birthday to the incredible Peter Tatchell. He’s been relentless in his LGBTQ+ activism for more than 40 years. He co-founded direct action group OutRage! and has campaigned against racism, homophobia, censorship and the death penalty. 🌈
