Hello! This blog is about everything 1960s through the 1980s of American Politics. Mostly about the Cold War, the presidents, the scandals, and the subcultures they helped create. As well as books/documentaries written during or about the time and how they reflect the time period. Mostly shitposting

Just a place for me to nerd out about one of the wildest times in American history. Enjoy!

Posts twice a day on a queue. May post more often if I manually post something.

closing statement from an article about being intersex & the possible connection of gender expression and sexuality in intersex individuals, published in The Gay Liberator, 1970s

[ID: a picture of an article that says, “Hopefully gay liberation will continue to raise confusing issues until the world at large becomes so confused and befuddled about sex and gender and all that people can finally stop worrying if "it's a boy or a girl" and get around to being free to be and to love people.” /end ID]

Beatles fans when you tell them your favourite song is hey jude and not a rehearsal tape with john’s voice calling out “paul… paul…’ in a strangely subservient, pleading way

One time my mom and her friend were talking and the friend described someone as a “history gay”

I laughed and asked “what the devil is a history gay” and they both just kinda looked at me

I think I’m a history gay.
