(NEW!) As America celebrates it's 250th birthday, I decided to take a closer look at the plight of #transgender veterans and their ability to access #healthcare through the VA. Spoiler: It wasn't good before, now they're under direct attack under Hegseth.

Land of Action, the initiative I launched to support grassroots progressive groups across #NewMexico, will be at #SantaFe #Pride festival on 6/27. We want to distribute literature introducing LoA and its work on free and fair elections this November. https://landofaction.org
I need to do a little fundraising to make this possible. Here’s my kofi link https://ko-fi.com/heidi36465. Donations of any size would help. Aiming for $500.
Samples of what we want to hand out are in the following posts! 1/

Manse Pride marssi lähtestyy, ja sehän tarkoittaa sitä, että sen kunniaksi järjestetään myös jo perinteeksi muodostunut Mastodon miitti 🤩🌈
Eli lauantaina, 13.6. marssitaan yhdessä osana Manse Priden kulkuetta. Emme ole virallinen blokki, vaan ollaan rennosti omalla porukalla osa marssia.
Kulkue lähtee keskustorilta liikkeelle klo 14, joten meidän poppoo kokoontuu klo 13.30 alkaen Hämeenpuiston puolella, Vapaudenpatsaan kohdalla. Kokoontumisen jälkeen siirrymme odottelemaan keskustorille, että kulkue lähtee liikkeelle.
Kulkue päätyy tänäkin vuonna Sorsapuistoon, jossa jatkammekin sitten miittiä etsimällä jonkin sopivan piknik-spotin johon istahtaa, ja viettää yhdessä aikaa.
Tarkemmat tiedot kulkueesta löytyy Manse Priden nettisivuilta: https://www.mansepride.fi/pride-marssi-26/
Kiva jos pääset mukaan ja nähdään miitissä! ❤️🏳️🌈
I know many of you depend on my boosting for a curated "best of the Fediverse" feed. And normally I enjoy providing that.
But recent events, especially politics, are taking a toll. It's very difficult to read not just the news itself but your reactions to it.
I'm dealing with a LOT of existential dread right now. As are many of my #trans siblings. And mental health comes first.
So, you may notice the firehose slow to a trickle. Or even stop for awhile.
Thank you for understanding. 💖🏳️⚧️
Day 9 of Pride.
A wise man once said that if we spend some time each day laughing, crying, and immersed in thought and self-reflection each day, we will have something special.
In the end, that is what it means to be honestly LGBTQ+. We have earned our identities the hard way, through difficult self-reflection, and in that we find joy we never knew possible. This does not, however, keep the storms from coming in. Our tears are usually well-earned - but so is our laughter.
Thought, laughter, and tears. Something to think about (and laugh about, and cry about) this Pride.
It's #Pride month, please help me move away so that I can be openly queer safely. 🙏🏻🏳️🌈

My dentist hands out roses at the end of visits. I was surprised and delighted to see rainbow roses today, and it was nice to bring one home. 🌹🏳️🌈
I made another mini pride landscape! This time it's the ace flag, featuring some lavender fields. Might slowly make my way through as many flags as I can think of...

Some photos of Wotton-under-Edge Pride today. It was really nice and positive, and they got great weather for it. #Pride
We're loving our #PrideMonth window art by our own Jack, adding some colour & love to #Bruntsfield
In a month when we heard of a council down south banning libraries from celebrating Pride Month, it's even more important we shout these events out.

I had completely forgotten what's pictured.
Was my quip (highlighted) dry enough?
