Tha an samhradh a' tighinn le theine — summer arrives carrying its fire.
This is solstice week. The hinge of the year, the longest light before the slow tilt back toward dark. The mother of the earth tips her face full into the sun now.
Mark it.

Japan is about to teach its children that we exist — a nationwide LGBTQ+ education program approved by the ruling party, expected to be signed by a prime minister who herself opposes same-sex marriage.
The woman who won't grant us marriage is about to sign the papers that say we're real. A queer student in Tokyo called it a baby step. It still moves.

Peter Thiel's invitation-only society, two decades of careful silence, undone because someone left a directory sitting in the source code of a webpage. The men who want to surveil all of us couldn't be bothered to surveil their own website.
113 names spilled into the open. A Treasury secretary. A senator. A NATO commander. twp.ai/4hrjus
