While many reputable companies have pulled out of Russia long ago, American language learning company Duolingo has continued its business in Russia, reveals TASS.
In April, the company was told to censor its app, so Russians can no longer see ANY reference to the existence of #LGBT persons, and instead of ending its business in Russia, the company chose to help the dystopian regime and comply, writes Latvian-based newsmedia Meduza.
I just dipped into Facebook for a while. It's still a cesspit of homophobia and hate, despite people trying to do nice things to make the world a better place. It's so sad. Mastodon people are infinitely nicer. 🏳️🌈 #lgbt#pride
Me as a young lesbian.
First of all I moved from my mother country Uganda because I was facing a lot of problems. They even wanted to slaughter me like a goat because am a lesbian 🌈 and for me I was not ready to change what i am. Our president don't accept lesbians nor gays in our country Uganda. My mother and my sister they were both killed in the house by the community people coz they thought that I was inside the house. A lesbian in Uganda is taken as a satan right now. I had no one to give me any help and I decided to come In Kenya. I look for asylum. People in our country are still looking for me though I thought that I will be safe in Kenya. The situation right now is not good.

Next weekend: come hear from an integenerational panel of #AAPI trans masc activists at a panel in Oakland. I had the pleasure of meeting one of the panelists last night and he had many interesting things to say about visibility and what he felt was a deep struggle to be heard for Asian and Pacific Islander trans men, even within the trans community.

Si vous avez quelque chose à redire sur la description d'un des sites déjà présents, faites m'en part directement ou faites le via le petit drapeau rouge à droite du lien.
If you haven't already heard the news, Cumberland Council in Sydney's west has voted to ban books that feature same-sex parents from public libraries in their LGA.
I will be speaking more on this issue, but you can send a message to councilors via Equality Australia, asking them to rescind the motion.
Le lobby #LGBT sévissait déjà au 15e siècle visiblement, regardez ce formidable Ange Gabriel non-binaire avec son aile 🌈

Touching his socks brought back so many other memories.
Since his loss, I’ve come to see how many of his daily activities made the soundscape that made me feel I was at home.
I had completely forgotten that my alarm clock for years and years was the sound of him opening his sock drawer, sitting down at the end of the bed, and sliding his socks on.
