Due to DEI rollback, some sponsors aren’t recommitting to 2025 Pride, but we’re still here — loud, proud, and pushing toward our $10K goal to benefit the Liam Foundation. No performative allies needed. Donate, volunteer, or share if you can. We’ve got this.

What’s your go-to comeback when someone drops the classic ‘You don’t look gay’ line? Is it a sassy one-liner? A dramatic gasp? A ‘bless your heart’ moment? Bonus points for downright hilarious responses. Let’s hear ‘em! 🌈💅✨

Friends: We have a lot of allies in here with family members, children (both youth and adult), etc that they want to provide support for. Tell us…what did your circle do that helped? What could have been done differently? What did you long to see from them?

🚽 "The trouble with bathroom bans is they don’t do what they purport to do. The argument is they're created to 'protect women', but they usually do the opposite."

Bathroom bans harm all women because they reduce people down to their appearance
They reduce people to an assessment of their appearance based on gendered norms, and give excuses to those who want to inspect people's genitals.

A federal judge blocked Trump’s order banning transgender military service, citing constitutional violations. The injunction allows transgender troops to serve openly. The administration has until Friday to appeal. This ruling is a major setback for the policy.

We’ve all heard it — 'But what about straight pride month?' How do you respond when it comes up? Bonus points if your answer is witty, wise, or just plain hilarious! (Feel free to ad amazing ChatGPT quips too just for giggles)
