Today I woke up to an email from a mom asking me to take down the beautiful @HuffPost essay she wrote about her trans kid because she's now terrified about their safety
It breaks my heart but I don't blame her
This is our reality now
And this is why we have to keep fighting

At some point we have to talk about how Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed for far less than what Donald Trump did and is still actively doing.

Ah the ‘is Rocky Horror problematic’ chat. Through a 2024 lens - of course it is. But babies, being gay was *illegal* in England 6 years before Rocky was first staged in ‘73.
It was brave, bold & brilliant for its time. Look beyond the end of your own nose, just briefly. Please.
