They're still coming for the LGBTQQIP2SAA community. And your children, but that's a subject for another time. 

This Week's Friendly Reminder

Because even after last week, we still have to protect people.

Nice to See

I'm glad I saw this person's work again.

More brave words on Huntington Avenue. Becoming braver with each passing day.

Hmmm...

Thought I'd see more of this guy these past few months. Maybe this spring...

Again, I love Provincetown stickers. The Shiva image is a nice touch.

I Keep Wondering...

Was this painted in trans Pride colors on purpose or by accident?

This Saturday

Saw this flyer and wanted to know why anyone would want ot shut down a local coffee shop. 

Checking out the Stonewall Liberation Organization's Instagram page, I came across this information: 

ANTI-TRANS AND ANTI-GAY CHURCHES OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD!

Public Coffee Company is a front for anti-trans, anti-gay Methodists who are trying to "save" Jamaica Plain (a very LGBT neighborhood!) and spread their reactionary ideas in our city.

We will be having an info session on their church ties and conversion therapy practices on Sunday June 18th at 2pm at @lucyparsonscenter!

Join us on Saturday, June 24th at 12:30pm to demand that reactionary, anti-gay and anti-trans churches leave Jamaica Plain!

STONEWALL MEANS FIGHT BACK!

I might be checking this event out on Saturday.

A Small Act of Defiance

In a world where the "other side" sports Blue Lives Matter flags that take up the side of a house, I'm sure this small 2023 Pride flag near Kenmore Square would offend someone if they saw it.

Still going with Pride themed posts this June. Loved this picture outside Comicopia.

I like this new sticker graffiti canvasser.

A Moment of Comics

In solidarity with trans lives, let's reprint that scene from Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Century where Mary Poppins is about to turn Harry Potter into a puddle.

Your Wednesday Morning Poetry

Continuing to focus on trans authors in light of the tragedy of the Nashville shooting and the horrific backlash that sadly warrants as much attention as much as the lost lives. Here is a poem by H. Melt published in The Chicago Reader. Read "At the Chicago Marathon." 

An Anonymous Poem for the Times

For today, a poem written after the Robb Elementary School shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Read it now at Oddball Magazine. Thank you for coming by on this necessary Wednesday.
