Jonathan the tortoise is 193 and might be the oldest queer icon alive.

He spent years mating with “Frederica” until vets found out that “she” was actually Frederick!

P.S. He had female options… he just liked Fred better.

I've just realised the tag was actually #LGBTscience and #LGBTQscience. It's been a while 😅 When I was hosting Biotweeps and RealScientists though, I used those big platforms to share LGBTQ scientists. It was really wondeful to see some folks even being inspired to come out for the first time

Beyond proud of my PhD student David Kasprowski for finishing an excellent thesis on 'Queering social class.' Findings show that sexual orientation and gender identity moderate each side of the classic OED triangle of class reproduction. A must read!

A bit late to the game but here we go:
New glasses, who dis? 🤓 #ScientistsWhoSelfie #queerSTEM #LGBTstem #LGBTscience #BLACKandSTEM #datascience

Two lovely hashtags to pick up your Friday evening: #LGBTscience and #BlackMenSmiling

Though boringly straight myself, my best friend from grad school came out during his already stressful 2nd year. Be a friend to your #LGBTscience colleagues! We were lucky that @UNCResearch created a fairly welcoming community, but not everyone has that. @biotweeps

I have a BSc in computer science and have worked in the industry since 1999 as a coder and entrepreneur #LGBTscience.
I have an interest in the nuclear industry and it's effects on society. I'm a huge nerd for scifi in space.

the #lgbtscience tag is so full of pure things and makes me so happy /waves from my ace bio-loving corner/
