“There is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood—of the fact that you owe things to other people.” - Jamelle Bouie
I could not agree more with this article & not just because I, too, was raised to be an asshole man & still have to beat that motherfucker inside me down all the goddamn time.
Talk to your fucking boys. If they get mad at you they weren't your friends to begin with.

Politics is dominated by wealth, power & influence.
Corporations, billionaires, equity-hoarding elites fund
think tanks, nonprofits, and lobbyists that author far-right
libertarian policy.
Elected governments are the front-facing funhouse:
smoke, mirrors, managed deception.
Social media movements are noise/distraction while
strings are pulled from above.

They 👏 don't 👏 need 👏 reparations 👏 any 👏 more.
Slavery ended hundreds of years ago, want to address inequity in America? Then make sure black families aren't grouped together into ghettos and receive the same job and academic opportunities as anyone else.

Thailand is Asia's unequivocal champion for LGBTQ+ equality and rights.
On 23 January 2025, Thailand's Marriage Equality Act came into force, marking a turning point for the entire region. By amending the Civil and Commercial Code to replace "men and women" with "individuals" and "husband and wife" with "marriage partners," Thailand did more than pass a law as it fundamentally rewrote the definition of legal recognition in the country. Same-sex couples since that time enjoy full rights: financial protections, medical decision-making power, inheritance, tax benefits, and the right to jointly adopt children. Hundreds of couples registered their marriages on day one alone, with over 150 ceremonies held in a single Bangkok shopping mall, a joyous, public declaration that love deserves no barriers.
Thailand's leadership extends beyond borders. As Asia's cultural powerhouse, Thailand influences entertainment, tourism, media, and social norms across the entire region. When Thailand chooses equality, it signals to neighboring countries that progress is possible, that modernity and inclusivity can strengthen rather than threaten tradition. And Thailand proves it works: open, welcoming cities like Bangkok have long been havens for LGBTQ+ travelers and expats, and now they're legal havens too.
This achievement doesn't end the journey, but it sets a direction. A direction where dignity is guaranteed, where families are protected, and where no one is left behind because of who they love.
Thailand gave thousands of couples the gift of recognition and gave Asia a roadmap for what's possible.
Since that time, Thailand remains a standard-bearer in Asia that takes the lead in advancing LGBTQ+ rights.

“Under Harmeet Dhillon, the #Trump #DOJ’s gutted Civil Rights Division — more than 300 of its 400-plus lawyers left in the past 19 months — is being stacked with lawyers steeped in conservative advocacy and Republican politics with a new mission to wage partisan fights and defend gun rights.”

Open quoted postA quotation from Samuel Johnson
It may be said that disease generally begins that equality which death completes; the distinctions which set one man so much above another are very little perceived in the gloom of a sick chamber.
Samuel Johnson (1709–1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Essay (1750-09-01), The Rambler, No. 48

👋 Please Pay Attention!
Every male in this thread who interrupts and tries to flip the topic to fit whatever agenda tickles their fancy on this particular day is tryng to silence women's voices.
This is exactly why the President of the EU is talking about defending women's rights.
Don't bt a Misogynist and then be angry when women call you out on it.

"Let me send a very clear message: Women are here to stay.
We will defend our rights. And we will continue to stand up for our values every single day."
— President Ursula von der Leyen at #SOTEU 2026

Anti-Suffrage Posters of America in the Early 1900s
Context: “Before the 19th Amendment, there was an entire movement built to stop it.
Organized opposition to women’s suffrage started as early as the 1880s in Massachusetts, but went national in 1911 when the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage (NAOWS) was founded. Led by Josephine Dodge, the group argued women were too “delicate” for politics, that voting would destroy the family & that most women simply didn’t want to vote.
It worked… for a while. By 1916 NAOWS had grown to over 350,000 members across 25 states, funded partially by the liquor industry, which feared women voters would push through Prohibition.
They lost. On August 18, 1920, the 19th Amendment was ratified, and NAOWS dissolved shortly after.
These posters are the propaganda that almost kept women from voting. Women, you must remember that the vote was never handed over, it was fought for against people who worked just as hard to take it away.
Somewhere, someone was on the other side of these posters. They were organizing, getting arrested, going on hunger strikes and more, so that a right this basic wouldn’t be up for debate. Sitting out an election is a disservice to every woman who fought this fight so you wouldn’t have to. Use your right. "

I've got to get moving and do some work. Just a reminder folks #AltText
(if you're really about INCLUSION)
#Equality : let's not be blind to the blind.
Too many EQUALITY MEMES / INFOGRAPHICS that neglect the Visually Impaired.
I don't exclude when I post, so I re-did this to be more inclusive. It takes time, but that's how it reaches ALL
#Trans #LGBTQ
Prides across #Europe are facing violence, intimidation and restrictions. I am appalled by Saturday’s deadly attack in #Berlin. As #WorldPride begins, the weekend’s events are a stark reminder of why #equality must still be defended and hatred must be answered with solidarity.

Tribute to the victims of the attack at the CSD BER/GER.
As a society we need to learn to allow others the same freedom as we claim for us AND to lock up criminals.
