Pics from today’s queer tango class. I heard there were 6 newcomers!

Georgia was out today, so instead of 1hr each of beginner/practica/technique, we did 1.5hr of beginner class followed by 1.5hr of practica.

As a reminder, these are free, community-run classes at Montgomery College in Silver Spring every Saturday 1:30-4:30.

In a world where many are unhappy with their work-life situation, I am grateful to work for an amazing company. I know Craig Ruppert personally and his warmth and generosity is what makes the difference.

I'm a knucklehead, but if I had as many self-owns as our gubment I'd long have fallen into the fiery abyss of FAIL. As it is, they keep avalanching down the sh*t-hill to smother us with nothing to stop them.

Tell Mayor Bowser and the Council: Fully Fund DC's LGBTQ+ Communities!

The DC LGBTQ+ Budget Coalition, comprised of more than 20 local LGBTQ+ organizations and allies, advocates for targeted funding to support LGBTQ+ residents across a range of services, with a focus on marginalized groups including trans people of color, low-income individuals, those with disabilities, and migrants. As we enter a period of harsh attacks on DC's home rule and LGBTQ+ Washingtonians at the federal level, we must assert DC's right to autonomy and fortify the District's commitment to protecting and supporting our communities. The Coalition and its partners have consistently advocated for budget priorities that provide the DC government with opportunities to lead the nation in programming, services, and protection of civil rights. Given the challenging fiscal outlook for the District and looming budget threats due to the recent passage of the continuing resolution in Congress; Mayor Bowser and the Council must prioritize its most vulnerable residents. These critical investments must be protected—not just for the LGBTQ+ community but for the health and stability of the entire District. The LGBTQ+ community in particular is poised to inject the District and the surrounding area with significant revenue through World Pride, which is projected to host hundreds of thousands of people from around the globe and generate millions of dollars for the local economy. While our communities are excited, we are also scared. As we face these uncertain times, the economic boost that queer and trans communities will provide should be used to directly support us here in DC, ensuring that we are resilient in the face of the challenges ahead. During recent meetings with agency staff and Councilmembers, we have consistently outlined our concerns about the challenges our communities face in securing adequate funding and resources for DC's LGBTQ+ residents. Despite persistent funding cuts and resource constraints, many of our members continue to provide life-saving programming and services which not only serve LGBTQ+ communities but have lasting impacts that strengthen the city as a whole and enhance the safety and well-being of all its residents. These are necessary investments, it is time to ensure that these critical programs and services are fully funded.
