I missed this news somehow (the article is from July 1st):

A judge has thrown out the case of a 20-year-old trans woman who was arrested in Florida for washing her hands in a women’s bathroom.

Prosecutors reportedly failed to meet the deadline for filing charging documents against Marcy Rheintgen after she was arrested while protesting the state’s anti-trans bathroom ban. A Leon County judge granted her lawyer’s motion to dismiss the misdemeanor trespassing charge.

In case you didn't know the background:

In March, Rheintgen informed Florida lawmakers of her plan to enter the state’s Capitol building and use the restroom, even including a photo of herself so they knew who to look for. She never thought police would actually arrest her, despite the fact that the move broke the 2023 law.

...

Nevertheless, two cops met her at the restroom, but she decided to go in anyway. At first, they told her they would just give her a notice to appear before the judge. But they then reported she became “sassy” and indicated she may use the women’s bathroom again, so they arrested her.

...

Florida’s bathroom ban criminalizes anyone who uses a toilet or changing facility that doesn’t match the sex they were assigned at birth. It applies to public schools, universities, parks, prisons, and other government buildings but not to businesses and healthcare facilities.

The law only applies to facilities run by the state, but transgender and nonbinary Floridians have nonetheless been confronted, harassed, and intimidated in public restrooms located inside private businesses.

How trying to define ourselves or others define us by assigned sex at birth doesn't serve us and is generally oppressive and incorrect, both scientifically and socially.

Saw this earlier and it made my afternoon!!! love doves and pigeons, so misunderstood and cute imo

Yesterday Erin in the Morning reported that the term "bisexual" was getting removed from the national park services pages. It was. They had proof -- but now, they've reverted that change so it is NOT TRUE now. Perhaps it will be again, but PLEASE check before saying it is gone.

• Old news: they removed TQ+ from LGBTQ+ -- that happened in February 2025.
• As of today, they still have the 'B'. See for yourself:

• https://www.nps.gov/ston/learn/education/new-index.htm

The source wrote the piece well and linked to an archive so people can see the history. They have a snapshot from July 10th with 'bisexual' erased, but as of July 11th, it is back. As I write, the text they cite for the MAIN page (not History) reads:

Before the 1960s, almost everything about living authentically as a lesbian, a bisexual person or a gay man was illegal.

The History page (current | Jun 4 archive } April 19 archive uses LGB) is obliquely worded and has been for months, saying:

Through the 1960s almost everything about living openly as a member of the Stonewall comunity was a violation of law

It still omits transgendered as it has since the February 'purge'.

So I bought myself some Makeup. Got some mascara, two differently colored pouders, some brushes and sponges and some eyeshadow.

So I tried doing some stuffs and even tho it was barely visible at all I really liked it. Especially the mascara and hiding my more rough parts of my skin a bit looked very much. This is devinetively the most euphoria i felt in literal weeks. Now I also finaly understand why cis girls do quite a lot of makeup. Its literally because it looks good. I never understood this as a guy.

I devinetively have to do this more often, so that eventually I gonna be able to create Makeup that actually looks good enough to go out with (fucked up quite a bit on this one so (you ccould easily spot the makeup) removed everything except the mascara before going out).

I thought my state was doing pretty damn good with regarding LGBT but the Seattle Tacoma area is gay af, and openly so.

Like, in my state, there are definitely LGBT but it mostly feels like the only time to be open about it is pride month.

Feels like pride all day every day out here in Washington

Seriously: Where the hell do people get HRT in like 3 months or so? Here it takes around 10-12 months waiting on a list to get HRT.

One outstretched leggie!

Let's see if they have a "stick" aisle.
