1. Missoula, Montana has cleverly voted to defy the Pride flag ban by making the it "an official city flag."

This comes after a law banned the flying of the flag but made an exception for "official flags."

Now, the Pride flag will fly defiantly in the state.

This is why it's so important to learn history.

It's very surreal to be a victim of the Eaton Fire, and we are still too much in survival mode to fully process it, but it's certainly not my favorite experience. We'd greatly appreciate any help you can offer, including sharing this link. Thank you 🙏 gofund.me/cab84a3e
