We are not what other people say we are. We are brave, we are bruised, we are strong, and we are all glorious! We are each a candle, a star burning bright.

Keep shining your lights!

Each voice matters, each our own song, together we make a symphony. Happy Pride!

Twitch removes the transphobic LGB Alliance from its list of approved charities

Good news! The gaming live-streaming service Twitch has removed the anti-transgender organization LBG Alliance from its list of accepted charities.

In response to a request on their web site, Twitch admins responded:

Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. Following a thorough review, we have removed the LGB Alliance from our list of approved charities. Twitch does not allow charities that violate our hateful conduct policies on Twitch, or whose organization or leadership engage in or promote behaviors that violate our Off-Service policy. You can find our response on Autism Speaks here.

We include a wide range of organizations in Twitch’s charity tool through our partnership with the PayPal Giving Fund so that streamers can choose which charities they align with and wish to support. Inclusion on this list is not an endorsement from Twitch. However, we regularly review the list and remove organizations that violate our policies. Please continue to share your feedback to help us improve charity on Twitch.

Anyway, while we're talking Super Bowl ad conspiracy theories, it's probably worth noting that the "He Gets Us" ads have changed ownership to a brand-new organization, Come Near, after news broke last year that the founders of the ad campaign, The Signatry/The Servant Foundation, had donated fifty million dollars to the Alliance Defending Freedom, a legal organization that works to block abortion access and trans health care, reduce/eliminate LGBTQA+ rights, and expand the influence of Christianity in schools. I can't find much more information about Come Near apart from that its CEO is Ken Calwell and the ads might very well still be funded by Hobby Lobby CEO David Green.

Community welcomes new law banning conversion practices in SA

Community welcomes new law banning conversion practices in SA

Survivors and community organisations have welcomed the passing of a law banning LGBTQA+ conversion practices in South Australia.

The SA government bill passed 13 votes to 8 on Tuesday night.

“This new law confirms we are not broken, disordered or in need of fixing,” Equality Australia CEO Anna Brown said.

“The legislation is not perfect but it’s an important step forward, and it will protect thousands of vulnerable South Australians into the future.”

Ms Brown thanked SA survivors and advocates for their tireless work over many years.

“I hope this is a moment of great pride and healing for those brave people who have made South Australia a better place for generations to come,” she said.

“This law will save countless people from a lifetime of pain and in some cases save lives.”

The new law criminalises conversion practices that seek to change or suppress a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity.

Importantly, the law provides redress to survivors through a civil pathway and makes it illegal to take someone out of SA to undergo a conversion practice. The SA Commissioner for Equal Opportunity can also disseminate information and conduct research and education about conversion practices.

Government responds to community concerns

In response to community concerns, the government confirmed that conversion practices could be reported outside the 12-month time limit set under the Equal Opportunity Act.

Third-party reporting will also be considered as part of a broader overhaul in the near future.

Amendments to outlaw single instances of conversion practices were voted down but Equality Australia will continue advocating to strengthen the laws.

“Practices that were experienced by every one of the local survivors we worked with are illegal under this law and we will continue advocating to ensure the scheme is strengthened,” Ms Brown said.

Legislation has already been passed in Victoria, the ACT, and most recently in NSW. Queensland has a ban on conversion practices in health settings, while Tasmania and Western Australia have committed to reforms.

SA Rainbow Advocacy Alliance (SARAA) Chair Leeann Friday said SARAA would continue putting pressure on the government to ensure family or friends who witness conversion practices can report it.

“Survivors should not be made to bear the burden of enforcing this ban alone,” she said.

I love Cheryl Blossom's complete lack of queer solidarity. She makes a LGBTQA+ alliance to make others bow down to her when she comes out. As head of this alliance she publicly outs another gay student over the school intercom, on purpose. And she intentionally prohibits two gay guys from running for prom king & king because she wants to be prom queen & queen with her girlfriend and her fantasy of winning "must include everyone wanting me to win" so she just stopped everyone else from entering. When she does win prom queen she specifically only invites two other m/f couples to dance with her and her girlfriend and not the m/m couple who "always thought it would be cute to be the first gay prom king/king couple".

She's so evil in such a high school way. I love her so much.

Major Ships & OCs under the cut:

Main OCs

main tag includes everything + aesthetics, fandom tags are au-specific only

Nate ( ffxiv / bg3 / fo4 ) The hero with a bleeding heart, Nate is a charismatic leader who loves animals and struggles with severe PTSD. He will do anything for family.

Lyra ( ffxiv / bg3 / starfield ) Lyra is a wiley and temperamental villain who's dragged kicking and screaming into a change of heart when she's forced to team up with the "good guys."

Tsimh ( ffxiv ) Tsimh is a blisteringly confident healer and bard with an amorous streak. While the matriarch lacks her little brother's wanderlust, she'll come to Nate's aid when asked.

Mal Belongs to my partner @seasaltandcopper :3

Multi-Universe Ships

SILVER LININGS : Nate / Mal Nate is a hand reaching out and Mal is a knife in the dark. At first glance, they have little in common. And yet, in life after life, incarnation after incarnation - even when they should be enemies, when they have every reason to hate one another, they choose love.

FIREWHISKEY : Lyra / Mal Two hotshot rogues form an alliance of convenience, and then inconveniently fall in love. Even worse, they might just start to bring out the best in each other. They're not exactly good people... but hey, what's life without a little mischief and murder now and then?

Final Fantasy 14 Ships

VERHEART : I'lyrha / X'rhun Tia X'rhun Tia saves an injured lass, and she asks him to teach her Red Magic. It's a common enough tale, except this time the damsel is really a notorious pirate in disguise. I'lyrha thinks this will just be another easy con... but she might have met her match in a charming Crimson Duelist.

SILVER FULLER : Nahte'to with: A'mahl / Haurche / Aymeric / Alisaie / G'raha / M'naago + Persephone / Kore / Hades A catch-all for the various romances and trysts of two polyamorous catboys who travel the world (and save it a few times.) Variety mix. Love, loss, hope, tragedy, snark, slow burns, friends to lovers, lovers to enemies...

GUIDED BY MOONLIGHT : Tsimh / Thancred Tsimh and Thancred are determined to make no promises to one another, except that whatever is between them is to be nothing more than a fun, temporary, diversion. Menphina laughs.

Baldur's Gate 3 Ships

BLOOD OF MY BLOOD : Lyra / Astarion Used to looking out only for themselves, Lyra and Astarion know a thing or two about manipulation. Oh yes, they know exactly how to sacrifice, seduce, and satisfy. They're so good at their tricks, in fact, that they trick themselves right into falling in love.

STILL WATERS RUN DEEP : Naithan / Gale Lonely hearts don't mend easy. For wandering Druid Naithan and master of the arcane Gale, navigating the intricacies of romance poses a challenge most formidable. They'd both do anything for someone they love, and desperation to save one another may ultimately be their undoing.

My GSA is making tye-dye masks to sell (proceeds go to the Rainbow Foundation). Would any of you be interested in buying those?

GSA

Hey so, I want to help my school's GSA (Gender - Sexuality Alliance) out by making a list of things we could discuss with the school to become more inclusive/ talk about / organise or do things with. I'd really appreciate it if y'all could dm me some suggestions as well or reply to this post with some suggestions. Thank you! (Maybe also like rb to spread it around, I want as many opinions as possible)

It’s a mess but I made my volunteer shirt for pride! ~

I’m incredibly proud to say that me & two of my friends gave organized the first EVER Pride festival in our small Louisiana city. It’s a huge breakthrough for the LGBTQA community here and I’m so so proud and excited!

We’ve received so much love and support, I can’t wait for tomorrow! 💙💚💛🧡💜❤️

fun fact for US high school students

if you go to a public school that allows students to form any non curricular clubs at school, all students have to right to form a club. you could form a gsa if you want.
