nothing has been more important to my being queer than when i went to my first pride parade, got seperated from my group, had a panic attack about it and was sitting on the side of the road holding a tiny genderfluid flag and freaking out. then this six foot five drag queen in four inch heels appeared from literally nowhere and sat down next to me. i, this scared-shitless trans bi kid at pride for the first time, very nervously told her she looked pretty and i told her my name and that i got lost and didn't feel like i should be at pride and she held my hand and said "oh, honey, everybody deserves to be here, especially you. pride is for everybody who's ever gotten lost, who's been scared of who they are or where they are. you think we never been scared before? pride's for you, honey, because you're scared. you don't have to be proud right now, but you're gonna be one day, honey, i'm sure of it."

i found my group soon after that and i never saw that queen again but to this day i am convinced i met an angel.

so yeah. pride is for you. pride is for all of us.

*invites you to watch tv at my place

*it's really hot fsr

me- you can take your trenchcoat off, my ac is broken

you- oh, we like this temperature, it's very humancore

*i squint at you for the suspicious phrasing but that's how people on tumblr talk so you pass

me- oh dang, the remote is out of juice. if only someone had some batteries, maybe even was... made of batteries

you- no problem, we have an app to control the tv

*i can't prove anything so you're still human for now 🤨

*watching tv*

*you have a sudden realization*

You: "Wait, how do you have an app that controls MY tv?"

Me: *dread* "...uh...well... your smart tv is on an unsecure wifi connection so I hacked it with my app!

(You are now more sus than ever, and must find a way to secure your wifi. However, no accusations can be made at this time)

there's this trick that racists/queerphobes/etc do, it's really slick. let's just do a little dialogue as an example, the names have been obscured but I've seen this exact exchange happen before.

Stephanie mc. Influencer: "And furthermore, body positivity intersects with black liberation, as black women are often held to unattainable eurocentric beauty standards"

Suave Replyboy Jr: "Lmao, you leftists always tell on yourselves, did you really just say black people are ugly??"

You see the trick here? it's kind of complicated, like, Stephanie is arguing from the perspective that beauty standards are arbitrary and subject to change, Suave understands beauty as an objective hierarchy, so he dunks on Stephanie safely from the inside of that standard. To him, and likely to many people who haven't thought about their own assumptions very much, the only reason black people would want their own body positivity movement is because they're ugly. Bonus points if Stephanie is white, and you can rile her community against her with claims of racism.

I've been getting some replies like this on my posts about sexual trauma, kink, and queerness. Like... I say that sexual deviance of all forms can intersect and correlate with queer identity, and dozens of Suave Replyboy Jrs come out and dunk on me from the other side of the glass, from inside the false universe I'm trying to discredit, the one where "sexual deviance" is immoral and associating queer sexuality with deviancy is an insult. I'm not saying queer people are dangerous perverts, that's you.

nothing frustrates me more than when adults refuse to even slightly indulge the questions and thoughts of children. i remember one time when one of my younger cousins accidentally stumbled across the concept of purchasing power parity because she realised 10 rupees which bought her 10 candies in India only bought her ~3 candies when we went on holiday to Japan, and when she asked her mother about “why the same things cost different amounts in different places” my aunt had the audacity to call her spoiled for not understanding the “”worth” of money, that’s not what she was ASKING damn it!! your daughter just set up her own big mac index and realised a key metric of macroeconomics!!! how do you not find that utterly fascinating !! why don’t adults talk to children !!

Lol was at the doctor today and doc was saying "I don't want to jump straight into a biopsy, because there will be scarring..." and had to find a quick and reasonable way to say I couldn't give less of a shit and in fact typically welcome weird new marks as momentos, like a big ole walking scrapbook

There's something to be said for Lauren Faust growing up with the original version of My Little Pony from 1981, seeing two iterations happen that she didn't care for, and 30 years later she creates a version of the property which is so grand and cohesive and popular that it totally subsumes the brand.

Like, for a generation or more, no matter what Hasbro tries to put out after, this group of characters is going to be what people think of when they hear "My Little Pony." They're so iconic in design and personality, their cultural impact was so large, that they totally blew all the other material that came before or since out of the water. Friendship is Magic completely replaced the property's image in the zeitgeist and has yet to be dethroned.
