The Trump administration hasn't targeted businesses that sponsor Pride events (yet), but that hasn't stopped some from pulling their funding. Several celebrations are down hundreds of thousands of dollars this year as a result of reduced or withdrawn donations. Some smaller, rural Pride events are down between 70 and 90 percent in sponsorship dollars compared to an average year. “We will remember who stood by us and who didn’t," Suzanne Ford, executive director of San Francisco said of disappearing sponsors. "When it was politically popular, they were lined up.”

I had such a supportive mom! When I came out to her (two occasions -- when I told her that I was a boy and a girl, and when I told her that l liked both boys and girls), she was like, "That's who you are!" and then would put on another Bowie record. I know not everyone has had supportive parents, but even just having one that accepted me as who I am made all the difference in my life. It didn't stop the bullying, but it gave me the confidence to be myself -- and that was HUGE!

Love rules. Love laughs. Love marches. Love is the wolf that guards the gate.
Love is the food of music, art, poetry. It fills us and fuels us and fires us to create.
Love is terror. Love is sweat. Love is bashed pillow, crumpled sheet, unenviable fate…
—Edwin Morgan, “Love”

We’re still awful as a society for LGBTQ+ people. I will keep doing what I can at work and in my personal life so my queer friends can just live a peaceful life.
We’re still far from that.
Now THIS is how ya be a good ally!
A HARRY POTTER FAN'S GUIDE TO NAVIGATING PRIDE MONTH
STOP reading the books
STOP watching the movies
STOP buying the merch
STOP playing the games
STOP fucking talking about it
STOP engaging with this franchise altogether
PERMANENTLY
every dollar and every moment you spend towards the harry potter fandom gives it and by extension transphobia space in our cultural consciousness and harms trans people directly
KNOCK IT THE FUCK OFF

Pride Month starts today and why it matters to me.
I didn't come out to a soul until I was 51. Not because I didn't know but because it was a part of me I squashed down. I came out as Queer because the label gave me room to breathe after years of telling myself I was bi but never fully embracing it. I'm honestly still unsure whether I was protecting myself because it felt "safer" to believe a lie or if there was a kernel of truth in it. But since coming out, the "gay part" of me has been the loudest by leaps and bounds.
The real me finally getting sunlight or some kind of Queer Rumspringa after years of repression? Possibly both. What I do know is this: I would have figured it out a lot sooner if I’d lived in a world that didn't fear difference.
I'm not great at writing these sorts of personal posts, but I’ve felt especially introspective after just losing a childhood friend. The second in the past year. One was gay, but still neither knew this part of me until the very end. And that’s not enough.
So here’s to Pride, whether you came out at 14 or 94. Love to all of you, and a knowing wink to the ones who didn’t take the direct road to their truth. Not late. Not broken. Not alone.
Join me Wednesday @ 6pm EST/5pm CST when #MusComEnt kicks off #PrideMonth with the action-comedy “D.E.B.S.” (2004). Available for free on InternetArchive (https://tinyurl.com/yfa7jast) and here (https://tinyurl.com/yc4e6526) I hope to see y’all there💕

Whether the weather be dreich or fair, my luve,

ahint and afore whit will happen tae us:
blind in the present, eyes open to the furore…

Happy Pride Month! 🎉
This month, and every month, we stand with our LGBTQ+ colleagues, friends and acquaintances.
There is still a lot of work to be done to ensure LGBTQ+ people are safe in their communities, but we hope that we can help them build safety on the open social web.

Here's my #TransitionTimeline again, but public this time, for #PrideMonth <3
First photo is 2005/2006 and roughly five years pre-egg-cracking.
Second photo is 2014, four years post-egg-cracking, I am wearing a binder.
Third photo is 2018, one year of testosterone. Had started to go about without binding but not many people noticed. Hairline changes. Some facial hair.
Fourth photo is from this morning, 2025, eight years on T. I don't wear makeup as often anymore but might do myself up for Pride this year. I am a bear, fat, very furry, and bald. I had non-flat top surgery last year and still do not bind. My beard is very full. I wear skirts and feminine hats and lots of queer pins and paint my nails.
Lots of eye contact.
We are survivors. We are strong. We are unstoppable.
Happy Pride!
