MUSEUM IN A HORRIBLE DEAD RICH GUYS HOUSE #museum #pittsburgh #gildedage

[Whatcom Museum @Whatcom_Museum]

Step back in time with this 1930 snapshot! Bellingham Hotel, now Bellingham Towers, dominates the skyline. City Hall's empty clockface hints at past frugality. Old Town's wooden structures and Whatcom Falls Mill Co. in the bay add to the charm. #FlashbackFriday

[The Backstreet Regents @RegencyNights]

If you’d like to recreate this cosy scene in your own home you’ll need a Rumford Fireplace, a big lazy cat and, not least importantly, a bottle of Crème de Noyaux — an almond-flavoured liqueur which was, the evidence suggests, a favourite of fashionable Regency Courtesans.

On this day in 1984, #Prince and The Revolution released "Let's Go Crazy" - the second single from his sixth studio album “Purple Rain.”

“Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today to get through this thing called life”

They never were going to just stop with trans people.

Italy has begun stripping lesbian parents of their parental rights.

They always intended to go after all LGBTQ people.

Walsh and others have started sharing outrage posts on gay adoption and surrogacy.

Just in from Montana Free Press and those suing against the drag ban there…

The city of Helena has STILL not issued permits for the annual Pride events and have cited the anti-drag law in the state.

Anti-drag laws are now stopping LGBTQ pride parades from going forward.

I’d watch that series #kinkhumor

Presenting the three best headlines ever written

[Washington State Dept. of Natural Resources @waDNR]

Fire danger is abnormally high this holiday weekend.

URGING you to consider firework alternatives:

- screaming “bang! boom!” at the sky
- dropping a stack of large books on the floor
- wrapping a toga around a candle
- play America the Beautiful while combining Coke and Mentos

On this day in 1981, the New York Times wrote a story with a now-infamous headline that declared "RARE CANCER IN 41 HOMOSEXUALS," that many people cite as the beginning of the AIDS crisis in the United States. Though that's how history remembers it, that is of course, inaccurate.

[Ibram X. Kendi @ibramxk]

This #PrideMonth, it is important to recognize non-binary and gender nonconforming people have been here from the beginning of the U.S. Here is a thread on one of the most influential such persons in early America. An abolitionist minister known as The Public Universal Friend. 1/

[Whatcom Museum @Whatcom_Museum]

Transporting you back in time, we present this photo of Fairhaven's Independence Day celebration in 1900. Immerse yourself in the past as you witness the vibrant street carnival that unfolded, featuring music, speeches, games, decorations, and confections. #WhatcomMuseum
