“I don’t think we as trans people, particularly trans people of colour, get spaces where we can simply look good and where it doesn’t go deeper than that… we don't get celebrated in this way that's not fetishised, exoticised, or medicalised...” Sabah with photo credit to @hollyrevellphotography

"I'm looking forward to growing old as a trans woman. I'm about to start my journey of transition hopefully soon so the idea of aging was scary at first but I am going to embrace the grey hairs and become a silver Vixen!"

Survived a Hate Crime — Now We’re Fighting to Heal

ive put it in a link because it was really distressing for me to see and i dont want the image of a black queer person in the hospital as the image that circulates. this black queer married couple survived a violent racist and queerphobic attack and they only have 3% of their goal in helping them with bills and therapy. from their gofundme:

"We survived something that should’ve ended us. And now we’re speaking out — not just for ourselves, but for everyone who’s ever been targeted and forced to stay quiet.

This was hate. Targeted. Deliberate. And deadly. I’m not sharing this for sympathy — I’m sharing it because silence protects the people who did this. And they walked away while we were left to fight for our lives. To those who know us: your support means everything as we begin to heal — physically, emotionally, and mentally. Please keep us in your prayers and share this to raise awareness.This kind of hate is still out here. It’s real. It’s violent. It almost killed us. But we survived for a reason. We are asking for your help."

this article further explains what happened and two of the people charged. it is extremely triggering for black queer folks so please be careful

Pour celleux qui ne suivraient pas les infos allemandes, la nouvelle présidente du Bundestag, Julia Klöckner, a interdit que le bâtiment de l'assemblée batte, comme tous les ans, pavillon #lgbtqi durant le #pridemonth. Notre nouveau chancelier conservateur a renchéri en disant que le parlement n'était pas un chapiteau de cirque, non, non, non. En représailles, les transports berlinois ont entièrement customisé la station Bundestag. (crédit photos bvg)

Tens of thousands of protesters marched through Hungary's capital on Saturday as a banned 2SLGBTQ+ rights rally swelled into a mass demonstration against the government.

Crowds filled a square near Budapest's city hall before setting off across the city, some waving rainbow flags, others carrying signs mocking Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

"None of us are free until everyone is free," one sign read
