Happy pride month! Remember not to buy from big corporations and that it's better to DIY any pride items you want! If that isn't an option, buy from local businesses that are queer friendly. There aren't a lot in Wyoming but you'll find them if you look hard enough

basically my standards for gay/trans media these days are that it has to be something i'd still enjoy even if none of the characters were gay or trans. bc otherwise the whole thing is a waste of my fucking time. in 2012 i was so starved for gay representation that i'd consume anything that so much as mentioned queerness just to feel less alone but that's not the world we live in anymore and i don't want to go back to that world and i would be miserable continuing to pretend that gayness is the pinnacle of good writing in 2023 it feels so.... gross. i like being spoiled with a rapturous amount of gay content to choose from and plenty of the gay content i DON'T like is beloved by other queer people and i don't have to love every gay narrative or pretend to. so i'm no longer touching any shit that doesn't do the kind of cool storytelling that compels me. i did my years in the trenches.

Q(UEER)

“The turtles arent queer, its not canon”

Ok explain this then

“Our flag should represent all of us” -Raph

i wrote longer bullet points and then realized my thoughts on the Unending Debate About Using Queer are just

if someone wants to call themselves queer that's okay and do not force them to change this

if someone does not want to call themselves queer that's okay and do not force them to change this

being uncomfortable with the way someone else describes or does not describe their own identity and refusing to respect their choice is a You Problem

shut up about if it's a slur or not. like yeah so are half of the terms LGBT people use to self identify what else is new. who cares.

edit to clarify i am trans and gay this is not a transphobe-friendly post. gargle my dick and balls

generally, im not someone who really cares about someones past actions if theyve addressed them and have changed, unless they were particularly abhorrent. but with thomas, i really cannot support him still having fitting up up until he mentions denouncing jrk. i get that he cant just remove the video, its one of the most important episodes to tss! but it is also his most popular episode, coming in at 6.1 MILLION views. this is the video that practically is an ad for h/rry p/tter merch. yknow, the merch that gives the transphobe money to be transphobic. all he needs is a line in the description outlining this. just one line in the description, preferably near the top, is all i ask for sanders.

there is no way he does not know of jrk's actions. he's in queer spaces enough to hear about it. i dont want to think he just chooses to not care about trans pepole, but im just.. im so sick of it.

Doing my part to spread the queer agenda at the park

Rabid Pride / not a gender

a term inspired by 'rabies pride' except i'm re-reclaiming it lol

A movement in support of the transgender autistics that are "too loud", "too hyper", or "too much", this movement isn't satire. This movement is in support of the transgender autistics that "never shut up", "never sit down", get called "retarded" and or "tranny", and are in general seen as an "animal" or "insane". This term is reclaiming the term rabid to suit us as the real transautistics and the hardships us transautis face in the world of transphobia (and in general queerphobia), sexism, racism, ableism, etc.

do not clown on this post.

Words and stuff under the cut:

it's Eddie Brock and his forever partner in crime (and love), Venom!

(I have a lot of words so I'm sorry in advance)

This is a character guide for my fanfiction AU, "A Match Made in Hell's Kitchen." You can read the fic here!

Flag IDs! (from left to right)

Eddie: non-binary, pansexual, demisexual, polyamory, lgbt/queer

Venom: leather/latex/bdsm, pansexual, polyamory, lgbt/queer

Fun Notes!

Eddie: Eddie likes comfortable athleisure wear, but he's a punk at heart. He was fairly repressed about himself before he met Venom. The shirt he's wearing is Matt Murdock's old college shirt, cut into a muscle tank because Eddie is Big McLarge-Huge and normal clothes can't handle him. Eddie also likes to wear makeup and nail polish!

Venom: Venom's favourite rap group is Run the Jewels, so Eddie got him a Yankee to wear when he wants. Venom likes a lot of different music, but he prefers things that he can vibe to in a literal sense. Metal is contentious territory, which can lead to some small arguments with Eddie. Mimicking clothing is really tiring for Venom, and he can only make clothes that are the same colours as he is. Maintaining "regular" shapes is hard, so he opts for simple garments, but they always look a little off. He can, however, integrate himself into an existing garment, which is easier on him.

comments, rbs are always appreciated!

(tw genocide and intersexism)

i think more perisex ppl should know and understand that there has been a genocide going on far far longer than the past few years. For decades, no, over a century

on intersex ppl

Genocide is the intentional destruction of a group of people. This can include killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. All bc of their real or perceived membership of the group.

All of these, except for the last one, happen to intersex ppl in some way.

We are subjected to abandonment, neglect, infanticide and murder due to being intersex. We face genetic de-selection along with sterilization. We also, as a lot of people know, are usually mutilated, SAd as newborns, and receive involuntary and coercive treatment. We are treated like we're inherently disordered if our intersex aren't taken away, purposely making parents afraid and accept whatever abusive treatment and surgery the doctor suggests. We do not get body autonomy. Many of us purposely avoid care for fear of medical discrimination and due to medicalization and few receive adequate care, as many lack understanding about our bodies and examinations that may cause physical harm. Then ofc all the hate crimes, including the idea that a conbination of "male and female brains" (which obviously dont exist) would produce a sex criminal. 60% of intersex ppl have thoughts about suicide, 42% have thoughts about self-harm, and 19% had attempted suicide on the basis of intersex discrimination. We are not taught about our own bodies then shamed for not knowing. In 2013, four elite woman athletes were subjected to sterilization and genital mutilation after testosterone testing revealed they were intersex.

Even within the queer community, we are only used as human shields against people who want us all dead and by Perisex trans people admitting that they lie to people who want us dead that they're just like us for the false hope that they'll love them. That they're the exception.

But of course, we were never really human, right? We're all just a bunch of freaks.

On this post it's actually so sad there's so little disagreement

And all the comments like these are unironically so stupid, privileged, or, not to be dramatic, but kinda evil tbh. The one person making a joke about people "whining" about slurs??

Why couldn't the op have left it at reclamation and saying they love people in the lgbt community... it reads like "I love you (unless slurs trigger you)"

favorite type of blogger on here are the people who post slurs 24/7 and then get mad when other users trigger tag the slurs

wow this person is a fucking asshole lmao.

still can't get over "there's no homophobia in ofmd!" claims, as if we don't get a flashback of childhood stede being the target of a rousing game of "smear the queer"

hey. barely gentle reminder to mutuals that tagging slurs in posts is important, and that people who do not want to see those slurs are not going to be using content filtering to filter those slurs, because all that does is make the content filtering jump them with "The post contains filtered content: [UNCENSORED SLUR YOU WANT TO AVOID]". Tagging stuff with "[letter] slur" is the easiest thing in the world, and what most people who are triggered by said slurs are ACTUALLY going to be filtering. It's 5 letters. 5 letters and not even a second of your time and YES THIS INCLUDES THE Q SLUR THIS IS FOR ALL SLURS. PLEASE?
