When we celebrate Pride, weâre celebrating community.
Weâre celebrating the people who cleared paths for human rights for the current generation who will in turn continue to clear paths for the next generation. Weâre celebrating those who came out as children, those who came out as adults, and those who will never feel safe coming out because of their families, religion, government, or any reason at all. Weâre celebrating those who have been a beacon of light and hope for others, and those who have needed to seek out those lights. Whether you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, asexual, pansexual, gender non-conforming or anywhere else on the limitless sexuality and gender spectrums, you deserve to be celebrated. No matter how you identify, no matter how out and open (or not) you are, you are valid. You are appreciated. You are loved. You are part of this #TumblrPride community right here on Tumblr.
One of the more endearing, necessary functions of a healthy community is the support it offersâand gosh, the queer community on Tumblr is certainly supportive and deserves to be highlighted. Thatâs why we gathered a handful of prominent LGBTQ+ artists and asked them what kind of advice theyâve received, and what theyâd like to pass on to others.
What is the most meaningful advice youâve ever received?
What advice would you give a young person navigating their queer identity today?
Thank you to Nicole Ruggiero (@nnnicoleruggieroâ), Ludi Leiva (@ludileivaâ), Freddy Rodriguez (@blueperkâ), Rubby Paulino (@rubbyvalentinâ), Patrick Church, Jerome Lamaar, Adam J. Kurtz (@jkjkjkjkjkjkjkjkjkjkâ), Antwaun Sargent, and JiaJia Fei (@jfeiâ) for all of their lovely, inspiring words. We love you, Tumblr. đłď¸âđ
Thank you @tumblr! So honored to be among these incredibly talented QTz!
Happy pride angels! Love is love + all that but, forreal, the world is so divided right now itâs so important for us to be extra empathetic towards others who are different than us. We all want the same thing: love. Take care of each other + yourselves.Â
Weâre celebrating Pride month on Tumblr with a series of interviews from celebrities and artists, asking them about expression, identity, and art. Todayâs dose of queer Pride comes from writer and illustrator Ludi Leiva (@ludileiva).
How do you express yourself on a day-to-day basis?
By starting each morning with three pages of free writing. By giving myself permission to doodle just because. Not for anyone, just for myself and Iâm learning the idea that my worth isnât rooted in how much money I make.
What is the relationship between your art and your identity?
My identity and my art are inextricably linkedâŚyou canât really divorce one from the other. My art and my creative process is a way for me to learn more about myself; To tease apart my identity and to heal.
What advice would you give your younger self about exploring your identity?
Not worry about pleasing people all the time, not worry about societal expectations, and to listen to her intuition. If I had learned that sooner, I think I would have had a different life.
What about you, Tumblr? How does your identity guide your art? Let your followers know in a post. Tag it #TumblrPride so itâs easily found by the community. Need inspiration? Follow @ludileivaâ for more beautiful illustrations.
Thank you for the feature, Tumblr! âĄď¸â¤ď¸
I am deeply saddened by #anthonybourdain's passing. Not only was he talented and charismatic, he used his position to advocate for othersâparticularly those in the #Latinxcommunity. Once again, this tragedy is a reminder that "success" means nothing without mental and spiritual health. There are so many people suffering right now, and suicide rates have risen 25% nationally over just two decades. It is more important than ever to move through the world with kindness and empathy. #RIP, Tony.
