Giving language to describe the many subtleties and intersections of gender, sexual, and romantic identities helps people better understand themselves and others.

To relegate that progress behind a + feels wrong to me, but the expanding alphabet soup challenges practical linguistic efficiency needs.

GSRD captures our current and future understanding of what’s beyond cisgender heterosexuality.

I’m enjoying this synthy/lo-fi pop album about gay love this morning, especially since my handsome hubby is traveling for work.

Magyarország’s parliament (Hungary) banned GSRD (LGBTQ+) Pride events with a 136-27 vote.

The law authorizes police to use facial recognition software to identify people attending such events 200,000 HUF (~€500).

Opposition members of parliament lit rainbow-colored smoke bombs in the chamber on Tuesday. US Democrats need to up their protest game.

Hungary passes law banning Pride events, allowing facial recognition

Hungary has passed a new anti-LGBTQ+ law that bans Pride events and allows authorities to use facial recognition software to identify those attending the festivities. The law's approval on Tuesday led to a large demonstration on the streets of Budapest. Several thousand protesters gathered hours after the vote outside Hungary’s parliament in opposition to the measures. The demonstrators chanted anti-government slogans and blockaded Margaret Bridge over the Danube, disregarding police orders to leave the area. The move by Hungary is part of a crackdown on the country’s LGBTQ+ community by the nationalist conservative party of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

"As Steve Kornacki of NBC News explained Monday, the polling gender gap between Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump is 'off the charts.' New polling by NBC shows a 58% to 37% split among with women overwhelmingly favoring Harris in the presidential race, while men back Trump 52% to 40%. Taken together, that's a shocking 33-point gender gap between men and women."

My analysis of Trump's bizarre "protector" speech and Bernie Moreno declaring women are "crazy" to care about abortion rights. What links these speeches together is anger and resentment at women for daring to have minds of their own. https://www.salon.com/2024/09/25/donald-and-bernie-moreno-rage-at-crazy-female-refuse-to-fall-in-line/

> “You’re winning, that’s why they’re going after you. I say you should wear it as a badge of honor,” Gonzalez said. “Double down, do even more. Be far more queer, far more flamboyant. At the end of the day, they’re fighting this hard because they know we’ll win in the end.”
