Post today by @PlinyTheOlder on what was Venus Xtravaganza's birthday reminding us that if you haven't seen Paris Is Burning, you'll lose your queer membership card. Look, it's even easy to find on YouTube. And it is fundamental, children. #lgbtqia
A group of 26 states has sued the #Biden Administration to block a new interpretation of Title IX that applies it to the #LGBTQIA community. They claim it amounts to religious discrimination. If you join a certain organization, you give up certain rights. If you don't feel comfortable interacting with #LGBTQIA kids, then don't teach in public schools. By the GOP's logic, white supremacists could spout Christian identity politics and be protected from discrimination. https://alaskabeacon.com/2024/05/17/more-than-half-of-states-sue-to-block-biden-title-ix-rule-protecting-lgbtq-students/
There's a certain type of Westerner who loves Japanese culture, and who believes that the prevalence or existence of yuri manga and anime means that conditions for queer women in Japan are good, or possibly even better than they are in North America. They should really read this: https://www.asahi.com/ajw/articles/15271758
(Does the popularity of US heist movies mean we have things like that happening all the time?)
L’Italia è tra i nove Paesi Ue che non hanno aderito alla dichiarazione per la promozione delle politiche europee a favore delle comunità Lgbtiq+, presentata dalla presidenza belga dell’Unione europea ai 27 Paesi Ue.
Oltre all’Italia, non hanno firmato il documento: Ungheria, Romania, Bulgaria, Croazia, Lituania, Lettonia, Repubblica Ceca e Slovacchia. #omofobia#bigottismo#lgbtqia#UnioneEuropea
friendly reminder that "queer is a slur" is TERF rhetoric
i've heard "gay" used as an insult growing up infinitely more times than "queer" and we're all still alright with calling ourselves a buncha fuckin gays so
Heute ist #IDAHOBIT. Der Internationale Tag gegen Homo-, Bi-, Inter*-, Trans*- und Queerfeindlichkeit. Ich weigere mich, das Wort Phobie mit dem Verhalten von Menschen zu verbinden, die einfach nur hassen wollen. ⬇️
Ein ganz starkes Zeichen aus den #Fußball-Fanszenen an alle #queeren #Profis, die unter der allgemeinen und in dieser Blase besonders ausgeprägten #Queerfeindlichkeit leiden:
"Ihr allein entscheidet über das Wann und Wo Eurer #ComingOuts. Aber wenn es so weit ist, sind wir da."
"Wir werden weder jetzt noch dann schweigen. Denn uns alle eint ein starkes Band: die #Liebe zum Fußball."

Ich lieb's ja sehr, wie bei allen Clubs so 3-4 Untergruppen auftauchen und bei #Freiburg quasi 500. Vielleicht beschreibt das den #SC auch ganz gut 🤭
Grüße auch an die Neuen in der 1.Bundesliga #Kiel#Holstein
Da geht noch was ☝️
@Tita@fussball Ja geil, erstmal danke für die Glückwünsche, und dsnke für den Hinweis! Dass bei Pauli glatte 54 und beim SC 41 Untergruppen dabei sind, im Vergleich zu den durchschnittlich zwei bis fünf.der anderen Vereine, macht diese Clubs wirklich besonders! ❤🤍🤎
“Queer' not as being about who you're having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but 'queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.”
