I’m watching the first snow in Chicago, fighting an urge to withdraw from national news for a while. Any familiarity with world history makes clear the imperative of resistance before jackboots kick down the door, but watching Republicans’ abrogation of duty in service to a charlatan taxes one’s mental health. I don’t want to give Donald Trump and his unqualified goons that much power.
Thanksgiving, for me, is a time to pause, reflect, and truly embrace gratitude for the remarkable people, places, and experiences that have shaped our lives — whether from years ago or those we cherish today. This profound sense of appreciation brings a happiness that is deeply special and lasting.
As Dec. 1 approaches, we are reminded of the profound significance of World AIDS Day. This day is dedicated to honoring those lost to HIV/AIDS and advocating for those living with the virus. In Florida, particularly within the LGBTQ community, World AIDS Day serves as a poignant reminder of the ongoing battle against HIV/AIDS and the resilience of those affected.
After the Democratic Party’s defeat, a chorus of elected officials and party operatives pointed the blame not at themselves, but at trans people who are part of one of the only constituencies Vice President Kamala Harris made gains with. Looking at the numbers, the Democratic Party should only be saying one thing to the LGBTQ community — thank you.
Giving the middle finger to anyone who bought his schtick about lasting peace, Donald Trump has chosen stunningly unqualified cranks and loyalists to help him burn down the government.
Community leader Cathy Cerniglia from Over Easy Cafe has initiated help for acclaimed photographer Michael Murphy, a community icon who has been a South Florida game changer in every way that has supported our community for nearly 35 years.
One of the most ridiculous customs of the 21st century is a gender reveal party, one in which parents claim to reveal their unborn infant’s gender.
A few years ago, actor Haaz Sleiman caused a stir when he came out on social media as “a gay, Muslim, Arab-American man. And I’m going to take it even further — not only am I gay but I’m also a bottom. Not only am I a bottom, but I’m also a total bottom, which means I like it up you-know-where. And I say this to all the homophobes living in the United States of America and across the globe. Why not? If you ever come to me to kill me just because I’m gay, I will destroy you. I might be gay, and I might be a nice guy but don’t get it twisted because I will f**k you up.”
America has made a terrible mistake. Despite everything we’ve seen from the right, voters have nonetheless moved toward it.
The results of the 2024 election reveal more than just voter turnout — it exposes deep-seated issues within our society.
