The first time wifey & I watched this, tears streamed. So many of us in the LGBTQIA+ community only have family that is chosen.

Here at Kin, we are your chosen family.

Welcome home!

Someone Is Mercilessly Attacking Portland's Power Lines with Dildos

Some Portland vigilante is throwing pairs of dildos over telephone wires like rubber dick nunchucks.

Native Americans are profoundly inspiring for their rich cultural heritage and their longstanding, inclusive embrace of Two-Spirit people—honoring identities that many other societies have marginalized.

We all hold unique roles in society, as we should.

Today is Native American Day in California — a celebration of Native culture and achievements, an acknowledgment of what Native peoples have endured, and a day to honor their resilience and all that they’ve protected.

We all know what this is. It's not about criminals. It is about racism. This is no different from Nazi's rounding up who they didn't like.

Fuck them all. ICE is nothing but thugs.

ICE agents have detained Des Moines Public School District superintendent Dr. Ian Roberts on Friday, according to school board chair Jackie Norris.

There is no confirmed information as to why Dr. Roberts is being detained or what the next potential steps will be.

And another story, I passed a woman in the grocery store and we bumped carts. She profusely apologized for being a “woman driver”. I told her no such thing, women are very capable drivers. In fact, most bus drivers are in fact WOMEN!!!!

Grocery carts, that’s a different story!

An older woman once shared her husband had passed, she said her days of the motorhome were done. She didn’t think she was strong enough to drive it.

Honey, you aren’t picking it up!

Women are capable more than we give ourselves credit for!

My wife can back a camper up like a boss!
