one thing id like to point out about pride flags is that absolutely none of them are as fuckin cool as the rubber/latex fetish pride flag. no completely indistinguishable pastels needed. so many pride flags look like you’re looking at the flag of a european microstate through foggy glasses. my colorblind ass can see exactly whats going on here and its dynamic and exciting

Formed on this day in 1984.

If you haven’t seen it, watch Pride. Important lessons about solidarity for the days ahead.

Again - JK Rowling has gone off the deep end and you shouldn’t support her by buying merchandise, or watching her films.

By the way with the supreme court reopening Lawrence and considering making anything other than cishet vanilla sex illegal, the "kink at pride" debate needs to die, right fucking now. We're about to see firsthand why kink and queer rights are so closely tied together and what we need is to stand in unity. This also means queer discourse needs to die, right now.

Listen, everyone. You have pride because of leather daddies and Trans Women of Color. You have pride because of the same people you're ashamed to accept into the community.

We're all about to become targets, and we can't win separated. And we especially need to protect our most vulnerable, we need to protect the members of our community that will get targeted the most.

Discourse needs to end. The United States' fascism and hate is getting worse, and anyone that knows their world history knows things might get really bad here soon, and it's more important than ever that we can stand together. If we get caught up on labels or "is this person really LGBT" or anything like that, the people that hate us all for existing will divide and conquer and we will all lose.

If you care about our gay male community please read.

You probably have seen this flag around if you're active in online queer spaces.

I've seen many people, especially gen z on Tik Tok/Instagram call it a "furry pride flag" or even worse, a "beastiality/zoophilia flag"

Please, STOP.

This is the BEAR BROTHERHOOD FLAG.

This flag was created in 1992. It's older than me, and older than most of you on this app. It represents bears, an identity that belongs to gay men and their community, just like butch and femme belong to lesbians. However gay men identifiers usually describe a body type more than a way of presenting.

Bear describes a gay male who is usually chubby with a strong build and very hairy.

It has nothing to do with being attracted to animals.

Those are the two otter flags.

Otter is also a gay male term that describes a body type.

It has also nothing to do with being attracted to animals.

Please learn your history.

r@dfems saying “just stop having sex with men” in response to the roe v wade overturn as if they are somehow indistinguishable from the pro-lifers who say “you won’t need an abortion if you’re not a promiscuous whore”

i still remember clearly one of my first interactions at pride with a 40-something member of the lgbt community. I asked him if I could take a picture of him with the bear flag (because I was really happy to see it irl for the first time!) and he asked, "are you feeling like a she-bear a little bit?"

and being gay almost exclusively online back then aside from maybe two friends, I was shocked by that question. me? a 19 years old kid who thought themselves to be cis and bi? I was basically the polar opposite of what a bear is.

but now, six years later, I see it. I'm fat, I'm hairy, I'm shamelessly a dyke, I'm masc. yes I'm butch, but fuck it, I'm also a she-bear. that guy was right. I hope he's doing alright and he knows he's changed my view on labels forever.

Do not use Discord to seek an abortion. Discord willingly hands out user data to the cops.

Use Signal to communicate for seeking an abortion, they use double ended encryption

"A reminder that if you happen to be in Mexico and you have an ulcer you can get Misoprostol at a pharmacy for $25. You can also bring the pills back to the U.S. in case you one day have an ulcer. And if you dissolve the pills in your cheek, it’s undetectable.

No prescription needed, you just tell a pharmacist about your ulcers and ask for misoprostol to treat them :)"

to my fellow usamericans….in light of the supreme court overturning roe v wade, well known organizations like planned parenthood dont need your money right now - they have plenty - if you’re going to donate, donate to your local or state abortion funds
