The European Central bank just answered to my letter about adding Georgia 🇬🇪 to the map of Europe 🇪🇺 on the new euro banknotes. And guess what!! ☺️ @ecb.europa.eu Thank you!

@reiniervanlanschot.volteuropa.org Please help me bring this to @ecb.europa.eu

I sent a letter to @ecb.europa.eu asking to include Georgia on the map of Europe on new Euro banknotes. 🇬🇪🇪🇺 “Georgia will take its full and rightful place in the European Union, and one day, the euro will be the currency in your wallets and ours,”. @president.ecb.europa.eu @lagarde.ecb.europa.eu

“Like many of you, I no longer feel that social media is a safe or enjoyable space to inhabit,”.

“Before entering, viewers encounter queer identity already aestheticised, branded, and made available for circulation”

Happy Pride Month to those celebrating openly, those celebrating quietly, and those who haven't had the chance to celebrate at all yet. 🏳️‍🌈 Sad for those who tend to have tradition of acting personally inconvenienced by rainbows every year. :) Happy Pride. 🌈

“They made jewellery out of bullets”: Lukas Dhont on his triumphant queer war film Coward

Happy birthday to the one and only Adele 🎉 Not only does the British singer set fire to the rain, but she's also a huge LGBTQ+ ally. In 2016, while speaking on stage in Belgium, she dedicated her show to the people of Orlando following the events at the Pulse nightclub. 📷 Getty

Mom, the woman who defeated cancer! ❤️

First home in Belgium. 🇧🇪 Nu alleen nog leren hoe ik mijn belastingen moet betalen. 😄

The Supreme Court ruled that Colorado’s ban on LGBTQ conversion therapy unlawfully regulated the speech of a therapist who wanted to counsel patients against being transgender, marking the court’s latest major decision against LGBTQ advocates.

Referee Pascal Kaiser went viral after proposing to his boyfriend during a Bundesliga game. Then, the 27-year-old was attacked, though the motive is still unclear.

#Senegal’s parliament on Wednesday passed a law doubling the maximum prison term for same-sex relations to 10 years, intensifying a crackdown on the LGBTQ community.

Double exclusion. How is it to be a #queer migrant from Eastern Europe in #Poland today?

Bad Bunny has broken yet another record after his Super Bowl Halftime Show became the most watched in history.

I genuinely believe @bsky.app has already proved there’s a better way. So whether it’s A, B, C, W, or X, I choose Bluesky. 💙

“When I go to the grocery store now, it’s like, this all feels so weird to be doing normal things when we feel like we’re under attack,” Ann Cary said as she handed out doughnuts Sunday to people around the site of Alex Pretti’s killing. #Minneapolis #ICE #US #AlexPretti

A year ago I wrote about a ballerina fighting for European Georgia. Today, Georgians are still protesting and young people are still in prison, held as political hostages by a regime desperate for legitimacy. 🇬🇪

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Georgia’s French-born fifth president, Salomé Zourabichvili, says Europe's inability to preserve a country that was "almost at the door" of the EU "is a concern for us, but should be a concern for Europe also”.

Three Lions Pride, an #LGBTQ group for #England supporters, says it will not travel to the #US for this year’s #FIFA World Cup, citing concerns over fan safety, human rights, and FIFA's ticketing and accessibility policies.

So, it’s not just snow. Deep freezes, ice storms, and dangerous wind chills are hitting places that aren’t used to this scale of cold. #IceStorm

Erfan Soltani is set to be executed this Wednesday by the Islamic Republic of #Iran after being arrested for protesting. Authorities say the sentence is final and have denied him access to a lawyer. #Tehran #ErfanSoltani

Such a shame! And we already know what comes next: nothing. This is #Trump’s America, where deadly force gets excuses and accountability never shows up. #ICE #Minneapolis

For centuries, survival required a profound understanding of nature, which was transformed into knowledge, myths, rituals, and artistic forms. #Greenland 🇬🇱

Tierney knew Williams and Storrie were the right actors to play Hollander and Rozanov when, after agreeing to take on the sexually explicit material, they did a chemistry read together via Zoom. #HeatedRivalry

It's fair to say that if 2025 was bad, we're in for a rough ride in 2026 not just in the UK, but worldwide.

Thank you @reiniervanlanschot.volteuropa.org for the book! 🇪🇺 I just received it, and it made me feel European again. “Again” because, as Reinier also writes in his book, “we are living through a period marked by uncertainty and confusion.” I had almost forgotten what it feels like to be European.

#LGBTQ+ kids shows and films will be celebrated by the archives (Netflix/Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures/Odd Nations Cartoons/Laika Studios/HBO Max)

I feel so vulnerable fighting for my mom’s life, far from home, while she needs urgent cancer care. My anger is absolute. #Georgia's system failed her, forcing us to seek treatment abroad. No citizen should be forced to beg abroad for their survival. 😣

The Dominican Republic’s Constitutional Court recently struck down provisions that criminalized consensual same-sex conduct by officers in the country’s National Police and Armed Forces.

If #Mamdani wins, it will represent New Yorkers’ desire for a politician who leans further left than the party’s traditional values. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

Someone threw rocks and smashed windows at several #LGBTQ organizations and businesses across town over the past week. #Denver

When a government targets #LGBTQ people, democracy is already in danger. That’s the warning behind the #NoKingsMarch, which brought over 7 million protestors to the streets.

At least 2 historic magnolia trees, Kennedy Garden appear to have been removed to make way for Trump's White House ballroom.

If it is not sadism, then please tell me what it is. Trump wants to paint the southern border black so it gets too hot to climb. But will that really stop someone running from persecution? 🥲

Having never sought to define her own sexual or gender identity in concrete terms, Björk is, nonetheless, in the public consciousness at least, a cisgender heterosexual female. She has, it seems, channelled her perceptions into her art.

Haruki Murakami was about to turn 30 when a thought occurred to him: “You know what? I could try writing a novel.” Then he realized, “If I wanted to have a long life as a novelist, I needed to find a way to stay in shape.”

Resilience is a set of skills. Here's what they are and how you can learn them.

HHS is targeting trans care again. Now saying health workers can deny gender affirming care based on religion.
