The main way to store #LGBTQ+ aspect in #OpenStreetMap is with the lgbtq tag. 🏳️🌈
lgbtq=primary is for locations which cater to an exclusively or predominantly LGBTQ+ audience, either by the managers running it that way, or by overwhelming convention. Subtags (lgbtq:*=*) can be used for finer details.
"COVID and long COVID are not HIV/AIDS, but our response to both viruses has been to bury them, to cover disabled and high-risk people with dirt. There is silence, skepticism and denial as many of us have become immunocompromised, as thousands have died of complications of long COVID, as millions have died of COVID."
Beautiful essay by #LGBTQ columnist Miles W. Griffis reflecting on AIDS, #longCOVID, and the work of artist David Wojnarowicz.
@LibrarianRA I remember reading this as a kid, and it's one weird-ass book. Like, the Tin Man goes back to his old house and finds his original human head sitting on a shelf, and it's alive and grumpy.
The idea that seeing or talking about LGBTQ+ themes in books poses a threat to children or society goes back to medieval times.
Records of queer people and their lives from the Middle Ages are more plentiful than many people realize, but writings about the history were censored by religious leaders.
Hi. I’m #bisexual. Always have been. Twenty years ago I’d explain it very bluntly, like, “I’m attracted to the person, what you’ve got between your legs is irrelevant.” Which today makes me #pansexual too. And I love how David of Schitt’s Creek explained it: “I like the wine, not the label.” But let us please not forget the B in #LGBTQ+. I’m very fucking tired of being erased, and very fucking tired of hearing that I’m not queer enough. The fuck do you know about how #queer I am? How about go fuck yourself? Yeah. I’m THAT kinda bi bitch. So happy #PrideMonth motherfuckers!!!!

My local american football team went to a pride event last year. Great day, weather was great too and lots of people there having a really good time. Didn't pick up any new players but we did make some useful contacts.l These events are great and fun for everyone.
