Ras Baraka is free.
He's emerged. He's free! The crowd is crazy. No one will let him leave, so he takes the podium. Massive cheers. I can't hear a word he's saying.

This is such a fantastic resource, and continually being added to as they find more books
I'd like to share with y'all a project I've poured my heart and soul into over the last couple of years: a database cataloguing every single older (pre-21st century) LGBT science fiction book I've managed to track down - currently just over 200 titles 🚀

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes.

You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.

My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc.

The State Department was set to buy $400 million worth of armored Teslas from Elon Musk. But after a report from Drop Site News exposed the massive conflict of interest, the department quietly deleted the word “Tesla” and changed the $400 million line item to a generic “armored electric vehicles.”

Trump and the GOP spent the entire Biden admin acting Ike they would return to power in 2024, including prepping documents detailing exactly how they would govern. Dems should act accordingly.
One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

The Trump administration has launched yet another calculated attack on LGBTQ+ lives—this time by withholding access to pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP under the longstanding President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).

BREAKING: A federal court temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order aiming to restrict access to gender-affirming medical care for transgender people under age 19 nationwide.

This is a major victory for our freedom to access life-saving care.
