Pop Culture Fix: Carol Aird Performs “You Don’t Own Me” at the Stonewall Inn

Roxane Gay is not here for your stupidity about Milo, the WNBA is not here for Candice Wiggins’ cry of reverse-homophobia, this new movie from Kristen Stewart looks good (but not as good as Totino), Hillary and Kate redux, and yes: Cate Blanchett at Stonewall.

Why the ACLU’s #IPeeWithLGBT Campaign Erases the T

While any and all support for the trans community is necessary and welcome, the ACLU is missing the mark with this hashtag. The big swing and miss for me is the fact that SB6 is an anti-trans bill that specifically aims to single out trans feminine individuals, regardless of sexual orientation.

Clinging to Naomi: Reclaiming My Faith as Republicans Continue to Weaponize Christianity

Notes from a Queer Engineer: Science Has Always Been Political

The danger of talking about science as a series of value-neutral truths is that it obscures the human decision making that took place at every stage along the way, as institutions were built up. It implies that the biases held by those decision makers are shared by everyone, and are therefore insignificant.
