Speaking Sweetly

Feel awkward about people maybe thinking you’re queer but still want to clearly signal “queers are okay with me”? SURE. LOVE IT. HERE’S YOUR WEIRD FLAG.

Don’t fucking at me about allies right now, they are ALSO actually getting fucking killed over us. Take your puri-gay shitty tent somewhere else mine is great with people’s cishet friends and relatives showing up to have our backs.

While it is true that some LGBTQIA+ gatherings are meant to be more private safe spaces, PRIDE is a public event that is both celebration and demonstration. More people coming to Pride:

makes it safer for queer people to be there if they aren't out publicly.

sends a message to local businesses and local officials alike that queer rights still have a large support base and aren't a niche demographic they can safely ignore.

And as for the rainbow capitalism? Unless you have a plan to abolish capitalism next week, I am going to call it a win that my local bank and supermarket are out making a show of their willingness to hire trans people and give mortgages to same-gender couples.

they r everything to me 🥹

Swing! 🕺💃

CONSUME THE SUN

you have to be kinder to people who are slow processors.

you have to be kinder to people who don't understand your jokes.

you have to be kinder to people who forget important dates.

you have to be kinder to people with cognitive decline.

you have to be kinder to people who were always this way, too.
