"Today, however, I am concerned that the country is becoming less hospitable to our community. We are experiencing an alarming wave of hostility toward LGBTQ+ people, with proposed legislative measures across the country reaching record highs. In a climate where hatred of LGBTQ+ people runs rampant, intolerance gains legitimacy."

#introduction
I’m Nick and a recent #linguistics #phd grad from Georgetown in Washington DC. I research language in and about #military and #veteran populations, language about national security, and often through a #queer lens (ie gender and sexuality).
I mostly used Twitter to connect with other #bikedc folks who want safe and equitable transit.
I’m also a veteran and served in the #navy during #DADT. Hi 👋
