1) Horrible news from Hungary today, where parliament has adopted Orban’s proposal to ban prides nationwide.

🎉 Same-sex marriage is now legal in Thailand! 🇹🇭🏳️‍🌈

First Southeast Asian nation to legalize marriage equality. Massive shoutout to years of activism by LGBTIQ+ advocates who turned this dream into reality!

Proof that persistent hope and courage can transform societies. Congratulations, Thailand! ❤️
