Our state has demonstrated over years that inclusion is not at odds with fairness and safety - in fact, it’s inclusion that makes us stronger. 1/4 ⬇️

Recent executive action targets health care for transgender youth, threatens action against funding for care systems, and against states like ours that affirm this best practice health care. In the wake of multiple executive actions targeting our communities, we remain resolute. 1/6 ⬇️

When the dog is sleeping in the bed, I always wish he would point his face at me instead of his butt. But then I remember reading that they do that because they have to face outward to protect you. And then I tell him loudly in his ear, “THERE AREN’T ANY LIONS.” Then we just go to sleep.

Tune into the @thegailyshow.org for some inauguration-alternative news that will bring you hope!
Today's going to suck.

But, at 2pm: almost all of the queer hosts of AM950 Radio will join me at Queermunity along with their staff and Matt Lewellyn-Otten from @outfrontmn.bsky.social.

Come in-person, tune-in live, or chat on our YT livestream. Plus, happy hour at Queermunity starts at 3pm today.
