News Round-Up: May 22, 2018


Some news items you might have missed:

• InstaHunk Obaid Habibi was being a little cheeky I think when he posted the above pic asking, "Should I buy this?" My first reaction was, "I'll take two!"

• Colton Haynes tweeted (then deleted) his thoughts on Hollywood needing to be more inclusive of LGBTQ actors. #WhyDelete?

• A federal court in Virginia has sided with trans student Gavin Grimm saying that federal law protects transgender students from being forced to use separate restroom facilities.

• Congress has voted to rollback the Dodd/Frank bank regulations that helped save the country from another Great Depression. #SRSLY?

• A new study shows that brain activity in transgender people resembles that found in cisgender people of their gender more than their sex assigned at birth.

• A new children's picture book tells the story of social activist Harvey Milk and his collaboration with Gilbert Baker, the man who designed the iconic symbol for the LGBTQ community: the rainbow pride flag.


• Bonus - I love the artist Silverjow on Instagram. Why didn't cartoon characters look like this when I was growing up?
