On this week’s episode of This News is So Gay:

  • Last week we mentioned the Trump administration’s cancelation of the recognition of World AIDS Day, but didn’t really dive into implications. What effects did we actually see?
  • LGBTQ+ issues and technology. What are some of the intersections between those two sectors that have us talking?
  • Falling birthrates. How concerned should we be and how queer of an issue is this?
  • And, of course, queer joy. Where is our roundtable finding queer joy in the news right now?
