"A Google employee spoke with the Bay Area Reporter on the condition of anonymity about the current mood among LGBTQ Googlers, saying by phone that, "I'm really worried that they [company leadership] don't know how unsustainable this is. They want to have it both ways: to monetize the engagement that comes from really odious content, but to bear no responsibility for it. And all of us queers who work here see how they're getting away with making money off people who hate us while doing nothing to stop them. Meanwhile, most queer creators' channels are demonetized or marked 'adult' because they use words like 'trans.' Google has no right to be at Pride. They're just capitalists. They don't care."

On 'This Week in Fascism,' we look at how a small group of far-Right trolls in #Boston, deeply connected to the Proud Boys + neo-Nazis, have managed to win the affections of Fox News + free publicity from the Center, by rebranding as #StraightPrideParade. https://itsgoingdown.org/this-week-in-fascism-13/

These fucking Nazis are trying to invade Motor City Pride with riot shields like Detroit isn't the king of riots. #FuckOuttaHere #Pride

Two Portland protesters who doused cops with glitter and lubricant get sentenced to five days in jail. The judge said “you don’t have the appropriate amount of respect" for the police. Lack of respect for cops shouldn't be considered in sentencing. https://www.oregonlive.com/news/2019/06/2-portland-protesters-who-doused-cops-with-buckets-of-glitter-mixed-with-lubricant-get-5-days-in-jail.html

"To truly defend free speech on the whole we must sometimes deny it to its murderous enemies. To defend the ideal of a richly interconnected world where information flows freely takes more than speech, it requires action against those brutally organizing against it."

Hey guys, super shitty news. You may remember me talking about the Birmingham Free Store, an awesome radical #queer space that provides #MutualAid in my hometown by collecting and giving away various things donated by folks in Bham

The landlord for the building has been working on the roof lately, and didn't properly secure the tarp before rain came last night. The store is now flooded, with much of what was inside - including the entire library section - destroyed beyond repair

They really need help right now, however you can. For cash donations, their patreon and venmo are both @bhamfreestore, and if you want to mail books or anything else their address is 3114 27th St N, Birmingham, AL 35207

Please boost this, and copy to other media if you'd like. This is an incredible space and it deserves our help!

These actions are part of a long history of repression by the Cuban State against both anarchists and the queer and trans community of Cuba. http://blackrosefed.org/cuba-demonization-of-anarchists/

Today is John Brown's birthday. Fighting against a democratic republic in which slavery was legal, he understood the anarchist critique of democracy way ahead of his time.

Against all white supremacist institutions, however "popular" or "representative"!
