โInvisible Rainbowsโ is a journey through the light we cannot see and how we use it to protect the Earth, discover the unknown, and better understand our universe!

I was today years old when I found out that Fly Me To The Moon is a gay love song!
Composer Bart Howard wrote the song for his partner Thomas Fowler. They were together for 58 years! โค๏ธ๐ณ๏ธโ๐

I do not know what a Miss Hitler is but the fact they said former has the implication that thereโs a current Miss Hitler.
And I fear to know more cause itโs obviously going to be way worst!

Truly the pathetic last grunts of a dying party that cannot offer anything to the public more than shallow inaccurate slogans that incite hate against minorities.

Today's Earth is at its perihelion, the closest point in its orbit to the Sun.
This means that whatever you're doing, even if it's just lounging on the sofa, you're doing it at your fastest total speed (about 30.29 km/s)!
Whoosh whoosh!

Literally who has ever benefitted by the work of the LGB Alliance?? They have done nothing to support any member of the community! They only promote transphobia!
And given they support conversion therapy they are an actual threat to the entire LGBTQ+ community
Quick questions
@UKLabour
- Will be there a compulsory DNA screening outside toilets? Are you gonna hire genital checkers outside any changing room?
Pensioners are dying of hypothermia, millions go hungry, and youโre trying to appeal to the holocaust deniers in your party!

Itโs
#LGBTQSTEMday
so my mentions are full of trolls claiming that we are discriminating against straight people, that weโll burn in hell (duh!), and the various run of the mill insults.
We are fabulous, we are not going anywhere, and they can certainly die mad about it. ๐ ๐ป

Such an idiotic move from Musk, and banning Linktree is especially punishing for creators.
โFree speechโ continues to be the chosen pretence of the authoritarians

I think conversion therapy is one of those euphemism that should go die in a fire.
Letโs call it what it is: Forbes says that torturing LGBTQ+ people should continue to stay legal in Scotland
Colour me shocked that a platform who has no problem having far-right guests, demonising immigrants and the poor, contributing to T*RF attacks in the media, somehow think that denying the existence of LGBTQ+ can be morally right.
The moment when your bestie in the States send you a random TikTok in the middle of the night and you realise that itโs actually about you.
I donโt mean โthis is so meโ this is actually about me ๐คฃ๐คฃ

Me: He is. He was at the Eurovision final last May.
Mum: I donโt think you can tell from that

Of course the best thing about Twitter was that 8 years ago today, I convinced a certain mutual to go out for a drink with me.
The rest is historyโฆ and chemistry, and a lot of other subjects!

36 percent of my life on this upโฆ and despite the bad (and thereโs plenty of it) Iโm lucky to still get so much good, and friendships, and laughter out of it!

Itโs unsurprising that the virulent transphobes also support the genocide of Palestinian people.
The people who wants us dead have worked out that all our struggles are interlinked. Imagine if we did too and started seeing true and widespread solidarity.
