A spoke to a dozen LGBTQ students in Florida about the impact that the “Don’t Say Gay” law will have on their lives. Many are already enduring daily harassment, rape threats, and death threats. They believe the new law will make it impossible to get help. huffpost.com/entry/florida-…

Well, Desantis said to read the bill and you would see the word “gay” isn’t in there. Looks like FL teachers have read it, and have an interesting take.

Pixar making their voices heard. The whole company held a solidarity event for the LGBTQIA+ employees at Pixar and all across Disney. Speeches from employees and leadership were given. This is what real support and affirmation looks like. Now, will Disney commit to real action?

There is a coordinated attack on our community right now. Bills like this and "Dont Say Gay" are signals to bigoted politicians that they can get away with doing the same. This is why we fight from our corner to end the cashflow from Disney into the hands of these politicians.

It's one thing if they had a permit to express their right to protest, but did they? If not, Burbank Police helped normalize bigots doing whatever they want, law be damned, serving only to accelerate the potential for violence. Where is the line drawn? When they start hurting us?
