2025 was brutal. For many in the LGBTQ community, protest wasn’t symbolic -- it was survival. A year-end reflection on resistance, Pride, loss, and hope by Will O'Bryan.

The work doesn’t end with our votes. When the people we voted for win, we must then keep them accountable. Democracy is a participatory sport. Just like in football, the spectators don’t get the trophies. ☯️⚖️🗳️

The DOJ isn’t going to prosecute itself. Congress is talking about using its own authority to step in using its own constitutional powers to enforce accountability. When DOJ refuses to act (especially in matters involving its own conduct) Congress can’t rely on the executive branch to police itself.

Lord knows I'm not a fan of any of this corporate media consolidation — Netflix and Paramount both should be barred from buying WBD.
But in terms of sending a message, would be stellar if everyone watched Good Night and Good Luck on Netflix together next Sunday when 60 Minutes is on the air.
