🆕Falkirk's Alcohol & Drug Partnership is hiring 2 new Development Officers. The roles will monitor performance and help implement local & national strategy.
This an excellent opportunity for those with knowledge of alcohol and drug related policy areas.

Are you, or your organisation, going to respond to the consultation on Scotland's Human Rights Bill? Let's make sure there's a strong response for the drug/alcohol/recovery sector to ensure our voices are heard, and included in this important legislation.

20th anniversary! Twentieth! 20 years!
North America's first supervised consumption site in Vancouver will be celebrating its 20th anniversary this September and yours truly will be the MC of this incredible event!
I signed up in 2003. I used the facility over 4000 times, being brought back to life there multiple times.
I went through their detox facility dozens of times and made friendships with staff that I still hold today!
The importance of the facility can't be denied. I wouldn't be alive today without harm reduction and I wouldn't have the life I have today without my recovery which @InsiteVan was vital in helping me achieve. So grateful!! More details to follow soon.

For the last time, Marsha P. Johnson was not transgender. He referred to himself as a "boy" and a "transvestite" as seen below. He was a homosexual man and it's incredibly disrespectful of TQ+ people to continue to disrespect someone's memory by claiming otherwise.
He was not there when the riots started at Stonewall and the people (lesbian women and gay men) who are responsible for the first pride and knew Marsha have confirmed this over and over again. Some of them are on Twitter. Ask them.
When I say that I owe none of my rights to trans women it isn't me disrespecting anybody, it is me RESPECTING the people to whom I do owe my rights to and those people are lesbians and gay men.
You don't get to come into LGB spaces in the last 4 or 5 years, kick us out of them, rewrite our history and then call us disrespectful or transphobes. Stop being an ignorant homophobe and get your shit off our flag.
If you ever begin to have faith in humanity, check out my Twitter feed. I can only scroll for a minute or so before reaching my despair quota.
