Quick Note: I misspoke slightly above. ALL the proceeds from her Wrath Month items sold during June and July will be donated! She is splitting the money between BLM-affiliated groups, indigenous land defense groups, and trans-positive queer groups in and around Vancouver, BC.

Hey! My girlfriend has been unemployed since like March because of The Virus, so she's taken the time to work on building up her Etsy shop. She just released a bunch of jewelry for Wrath Month and has some older things up as well. It's all handmade and part of the money from her Wrath items will get donated to some local nonprofits in her area.

Support your queer artisans!

Oh, yet another followbot. Blocked social.sphere.com.ai (which seems to have a single unlisted account sphere@social.sphere.com.ai).

animorphs is available for free and ka applegate is a trans-supportive parent, so there's no excuse for letting your kids read harry potter

Lioconcha hieroglyphica, a mollusc with a shell that looks like it has an unknown language inscribed on it.

Got it, reading now. The holding is simple: "An employer who fires an individual merely for being gay or transgender violates Title VII'.

This is really good news because it applies nationwide. (Fewer than half of states currently have non-discrimination protections on the basis of gender identity. A dozen or so have no protections of any sort for any LGBTQ+ employees.)

Quote I got from someone else (because I'm still waiting for the PDF): "Today, we must decide whether an employer can fire someone simply for being homosexual or transgender. The answer is clear. An employer who fires an individual for being homosexual or transgender fires that person for traits or actions it would not have questioned in members of a different sex. Sex plays a necessary and undisguisable role in the decision, exactly what Title VII forbids."

Good morning!

Pim Tool is real mad about this awesome flag. Would be a shame if other people in other cities copied it.
