Yesterday, at the CSD Berlin Pride - one of Germany's biggest Pride events, a murder occurred. A van hit the crowd, killing one person and injuring 16 others. We are deeply saddened by this tragedy. Our thoughts are with those affected and their loved ones. We are grateful to all those that aid.

26th of October marks the Intersex Day. Intersex people are born with sex characteristics that don't fit typical definitions of male or female. These natural variations are not disorders, they should never be subject to invasive, unnecessary, and unconsenting medical treatment. 💛💜

Before countries existed, people inhabited the land. They grew alongside the land beneath them, becoming one with it. They lived in harmony with each other. Until outsiders arrived bearing weapons instead of friendship. Freedom to all Indigenous peoples. More here: buff.ly/h1fbA7e

Happy Indigenous Day. From Palestine to Siberia, all connected to fight imperialist oppression of both hegemonies. Stand against genocide. Stand with indigenous people and for their independence from huge empires. Because their freedom is ours too.

23 days until we vote to end this nightmare.

No. Giving someone a free place to live doesn't mean you can abuse them.

Something something we are making casework~ This cute face is going to be a part of our upcoming case management app. I wonder what does the audience think of this cute mascot of casework~

You know that glib thing people used to say about how things online will live forever? It’s one of the dimmest ideas. Future historians are going to struggle with so many blanks. A digital dark age.

Periodic reminder that the fandom we get depends on who and what we support and "UwU no pawlitics" will not protect you. Curate your spaces to be safe for LGBTQIA+ and BIPoC. Don't let your spaces turn into the Nazi Bar. Horseplay Toys fans fuck off. No fascists at this pool party.

EFF’s position is that ALPR mass surveillance—the indiscriminate, continuous collection and retention of location data on every driver, regardless of suspicion—should not exist. Because it nonetheless does, EFF also urges courts and state legislatures to impose strict, enforceable restrictions.

Don't seek asylum as an LGBTQIA person within the United States. We have seen a resurgence of rejections after appeal for many EECA LGBTQIA asylum seekers that had made a decision to go for the US. Please before deciding to go asylum seeking route, consult with the relevant NGOs. Thank you.

"If trans people want a boycott of The New York Times, where's the call to do so?" Here is a declaration laying out how the NYT is a key driver of trans genocide, why boycotts work and why anyone who gives a damn about trans lives and rights must boycott The New York Times.

Attach your name to this to urge our leaders in Europe to put in place tangible protections for our Pride movement.

On 30 July 1960, the French National Assembly added homosexuality to its list of ‘fléaux sociaux’ (social plagues) that needed to be combated by the government. It amended a public health and reform bill to list homosexuality alongside prostitution and alcoholism as menaces to society.

Today is the Disability Pride, but for me Pride is never over! I have Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. It breaks my life, it makes me miserable sometimes, but I never would feel shame for being myself. And I'm not hiding either, not as disabled, not as a woman #DisabilityPride #LGBTQIA

So basically conversion therapy will still be legal if it is carried out by the NHS 🤦🏻‍♀️

The growing wave of progressive populists understand that raising taxes on billionaires is overwhelmingly popular — 77% of voters support doing so, including 71% of Independents and 65% of Republicans.

On 12 June, the EU decided to further restrict the rights of refugees. Before this agreement was reached, they had already been subjected to discrimination and dehumanization by a system that claims to protect their rights yet continues to take more and more away. More here: buff.ly/OYtFrfr

I am a proud refugee. Something that changed my life forever. On this day, I wish those like me strength and fortune, because when all those that seek to destroy us will eventually get weaker, we can rise back and change the world. #RefugeeDay

Quick PSA: AI Image Detectors TL;DR: Take them with a grain of salt. Recently, I saw a discussion about a couple of artists being outed as prompters, and in one instance an AI detection tool was used. This got me thinking, so I ran my newest drawing through one to see what would happen. Hmmm...

While our rights are under attack even here in the EU, there is no better time than to fight for rights alongside us. Stand with immigrants, women, asylum seekers, workers, refugees, people of color, indigenous people, disabled people, other queer people - everyone on the far right's hit list.

10 years ago today, 49 lives were taken at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando. Today we remember them by name, the people they loved, the joy they brought, and the impact they continue to have on so many lives. Forever remembered. 🏳️‍🌈❤️ #NOH8
