    So last year on this day (June 26h) the supreme court voted in favor of LGBTQ+'s to be able to marry in all 50 states in the US! HOORAY! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:ride:

    We should celebrate! I got rainbow cupcakes and am wearing my bisexuwhale T shirt today (has a Bi flag colored whale on the front.. so cute!) along with my rainbow bracelet and I'm posting tons of LGBTQ+ stuff on Facebook today! I'm proud and celebrating!

    How are you celebrating today?

    Happy #LoveWins anniversary everybody!

    (&&&) (!) (*hug*) :eusa_danc

    I was in such shock, I never thought it would happen in my life time. Since I've gotten to do wedding invitations for a same sex wedding. It was wonderful. The court ruling has really improved how I feel about fitting in to society, and I'm very grateful to live in this time.

    Cheers everyone! Though the marriage right doesn't personally affect me, I'm happy for everyone it does. It still baffles me that it was something denied to lgbt+ folks anyway.

    I don't think I'll be making it to any Pride event so I can't celebrate that way. I did paint my nails in honor of this month.[​IMG]

    Some of the colors are a little off (the lighting isn't helping) but it's all I had to work with. Also I'm not an expert on nail painting even in the slightest. So don't judge too harshly please.:icon_redf

    I noticed that Google has a Pride link on their page today, it must be to commemorate this occasion.

    I agree, this is a great time to be living in. Everybody in America - please register to vote, and plan on voting in November. 1+ Supreme Court positions are on the ballot.

    I'm wearing my Bi Pride silicone wristband and a tie-dyed t-shirt my wife made for me in the colors of the bi pride flag - pink, purple, blue.

    Yay! Things are improving, that's for sure. Maybe why I felt comfortable enough to come out this year. Still a long way to go, though. I was also excites to see that we have our first LGBT+ national historic site now, too.
