Just learned of this film from a customer.

DESIRE LINES has been awarded the NEXT Special Jury Award at Sundance 2024 Film Festival and the Silver Alexander Award at Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival!

"An underground narrative has long been whispered among transgender men: after coming out as trans, many of us develop an attraction for other men. In this hybrid documentary, history comes alive when an Iranian-American trans man time-travels on a dizzying quest to unravel his own s*xual desires. As Ahmad approaches age 60, his long-suppressed desires for other men become impossible to ignore. Having grown up in an era when homos*xual activity could block one’s access to medical transition, he can’t help but wonder whether his s*xuality and gender identity are completely at odds. He turns to the LGBT archives for answers, where he meets a 20-something trans archivist named Kieran. As Ahmad falls deeper into the archive, he is quite literally sucked into the text—becoming a time-traveler who participates in the q***r cruising history he reads about. This fictional narrative is interwoven with archival gems and a trove of contemporary oral histories from a diverse group of transmen across North America. These participants candidly discuss the evolution of their desires and illuminate their struggles with gender (non)conformity, fetishization, transphobia, s*xual racism, and safer s*x. Desire Lines pushes against binaries—fiction vs. non-fiction, reality vs. fantasy, public vs. private—in order to highlight the fallacy of “purity” that undergirds colonialist notions of discrete categories of being (or genre); embracing bewilderment as a liberatory strategy for trans representation."

It's Wear Orange Weekend, to honor survivors and build community with those working to end gun violence. As we approach the 10th anniversary of Pulse we are reminded that gun violence remains something we still seem unable to address legislatively in any meaningful way, even though:

"A steady majority of Americans—routinely hovering between 56% and 58% in national polling—support stricter laws covering the sale of fi****ms. Despite this broad public consensus, federal legislative action has stalled, leading to a fragmented landscape where states determine their own regulatory stringency." Everytown Research & Policy

Our "shoot loads not guns" collection supports G**s Against Guns; a prominent, direct-action LGBTQ+ gun-control advocacy group. Formed in the wake of the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida, the group actively participates in Pride parades across the country to nonviolently challenge gun violence and honor victims of fi****ms.

NYC Pride has named G**s Against Guns the fifth and final Grand Marshal for the 2026 Pride March.

"We are facing more than $1 trillion in health cuts that are putting millions more people at risk, not only in our country but around the world. Health is primary. Health cuts kill. We cannot wait for another crisis that will put millions more people at risk.”
— Cleve Jones

Seven Days in June: HEALTH IS PRIMARY is a decentralized, nonpartisan, grassroots-driven campaign to focus local media attention on how funding cuts, as well as policy and regulatory changes, will devastate local communities.

Reading the United States' Counterterrorism Strategy published by the White House and knowing that DHS/ICE is working on building detention camps around the country, one might exercise some caution, however, we've long known that silence will not protect us.

Call us what you will, but we take to heart those inalienable rights. We are radically pro-transgender, pro-human rights, pro-freedom, and anti-fascist. If you believe immigrants and transgender people are the reason for your issues, you are sorely mistaken.

Today marks the birthday of Gilbert Baker, born in Chanute, Kansas in 1951. Baker was a key creator of the original rainbow flag — an 8-stripe design where every color carried its own meaning: pink for s*x, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for the sun, green for nature, turquoise for magic, blue for serenity, and purple for spirit. As Baker put it, "This was the hippie, 1978 meanings for the thing."

It's pride month, let's not forget that though we've seen much progress, the actions of this regime continue to attack rights of those in the community.
