Did you know there was a genderless preacher in the 1700s known as the Public Universal Friend?
The US #government deleted the Friend's Home and other #lgbtqia places from their records. We brought them back because friendship & love are ALWAYS in style! ✨ ❤️

Don't panic, get organized! My latest article for @deceleration is out, about the attacks on #LGBTQIA+ rights at the #Texas Legislature and what you can do about it (and what others are doing too).

Edinburgh Tour Replacing Harry Potter Tours with LGBTQ+ History Walks Because of J.K. Rowling Comments
🧵 A brief thread on right-wing atheism and one of the origins of its hatred of trans people.
