Next up, Solo Weekend at Twin Ponds Lodge! This isn’t a singles weekend, the “solo” is short for solosexual, it’s for bators! #bate #gaybate #gaymaine
On August 2, 1961, Illinois became the first U.S. state to decriminalize homosexuality by repealing its sodomy law—four decades before the Supreme Court made it nationwide. It was a quiet but radical act that paved the way for everything that followed. Progress starts small, but it matters.
TPL Olympics are back Aug 1! Join us at Twin Ponds Lodge for wild games, big laughs, and naked fun—hosted by Ranger Alli. Compete, cheer, or just judge from the snack table. Glory, bragging rights, and questionable medals await!
So, on this day in 1990, bipartisan cooperation made a real difference for LGBTQ+ Americans—reminding us that progress sometimes happens when unlikely political forces come together.
Before the ADA, it was legal to deny housing, employment, or public access to people with HIV/AIDS. The law’s approval marked a turning point in recognizing and protecting the rights and dignity of those affected, thanks to the tireless work of queer activists and allies.
At the time, the country was led by Republican President George H. W. Bush. The ADA’s passage was especially significant for the LGBTQ+ community, as it extended vital protections to people living with HIV/AIDS—many of whom were gay and bisexual men facing rampant discrimination.
Today in Gay History: July 12
On July 12, 1990, the U.S. House of Representatives—then controlled by the Democratic Party—passed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a landmark piece of civil rights legislation.🧵

Our most popular Kink & Fetish Weekend, Outdoor Play is back! August 15-17
Today in gay history: On July 1, 1967, the UK’s Sexual Offences Act was passed, decriminalizing private consensual sex between men over 21. A huge step for LGBTQ+ rights—progress worth celebrating and defending every day. #GayHistory #Pride
On this day in 1977, the legendary Harvey Milk led thousands of LGBTQ+ folks and allies through the streets of San Francisco for the city’s Pride Parade. It was one of the first times an openly gay elected official marched front and center, demanding visibility, respect, and equal rights .
On this day in 2015, love officially won! The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that marriage equality is a right for all, and the rest is history.
Whether you’re married, partnered, or just vibing with the universe. Here’s to the freedom to say “I do”—or “I don’t, but thanks for asking.”
