If I see one of y’all telling lgbt couples not to display affection in public during pride month (or any time really) because “yuck I don’t like it uwu”, I’ll find you and I will deck you without hesitation
jesus fuck i am so sick of everyone getting into ace ‘discourse’ let’s just have a pride month without wasting our time getting into pointless arguments with these people, please. i promise you its not worth it
im not joking. its just exhausting. for your own mental health do not waste a single second on this, it’s utterly ineffective for the effort required to deal with it and just endlessly fucking frustrating to see the same arguments over and over and over again just, like, lets move on, please, its driving me nuts
im trying to learn japanese because its something ive wanted to do for a while and im excited to finally have the time to sit down and learn it… but of course when my mom found out shes convinced im doing it for a friend or because anime :’))
mm nope i just want to learn things sometimes! and enjoy learning languages!
cops do not, have never, and will never “belong” at pride.
if you believe that the police have any right to involve themselves whatsoever in our pride celebrations and demonstrations of solidarity, you are choosing to ignore the reality of institutional violence our people face to this day, and you are directly disrespecting our community’s foundational history. of lesbians being arrested and violated for crossdressing, gay men being entrapped and brutalized for cruising, trans women being assaulted and murdered by the police… the list goes on. the horrors and dehumanization the lgbt community has faced and continues to face at the hands of law enforcement are depressingly endless and absolutely appalling.
cops are not welcome at pride. they never have been and they never will be. stonewall was a riot. and we are still fighting around the world to this day. respect our history.
ok so like yes gay people are superior to straights in every way but at the same time I’m a little worried that jokes like that are part of the reason kids are identifying as a million different micro-identities… like they know they’re not lesbian gay bisexual or transgender but they want the community, they want to feel like they’re part of it… idk this is only a half formed thought but like. You can find community in places that aren’t lgbt if that’s not what you are. you don’t have to find some kind of loophole so that you can call yourself queer. If you’re not lgbt, don’t make yourself be
I feel the mountains burn inside
