Cause for celebration is when our people are home, when we can travel with dignity, speak with privacy, practice whatever religion we please - including Islam - without retribution, and can serve our country and just generally *live* without worry for what our gender is, was, or who our spouse or spice is or are. I don't expect to get all that at once, but I do damn well expect and demand that, in my lifetime, and sooner rather than later...
