Lubbock gets fightin’ mad, trans folk are remembered, and Winnie the Pooh gets ridden out of Poland on a rail, as your AggreGAYtor grabs a cup and gets to tapping.

The Good

APD has an openly serving trans officer, and he spoke at the Transgender Day of Remembrance vigil.

Why should everyone back LGBTQ equality? Money, that’s why.

The Bad

Four of the five cities to score zero on the HRC Equality Index are in Texas.

The Fugly

The Mayor of Lubbock is not happy with HRC, not that the city’s done anything to actually merit better treatment.

A trans Miami woman has had her identity erased after death.

Winnie the Pooh is too queer for Poland.
