Coping with a life invasion stalker.

It takes a certain degree of cruelty to kick someone when they are down. Not a tentative poke with the tip of your shoe. Not even a big, powerful kick to the abdomen that hurts, but is soon over. Rather a series of small to medium kicks, similar to the thud of a bored child […]

Pennsylvania’s LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index: Mediocrity is not a good look, but it could be worse

In June 2026, OUT Leadership released a State LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index. Pennsylvania ranked 21 out of 50. The rankings were made based on several factors, from laws related to bathroom access to restrictions on drag performances to state leadership scores and shield laws.
