But with this view, she coulda sworn she was skywalking—floating—and maybe if the people in California could see this they’d get it. They’d stop looking up, or in, or at a mirror, and would just fucking look for once. Look without taking. Look to look. “I’m sorry I snapped at you, by the way,” Toni said, wrapping her arms around her knees as she sat. Beside her, Becca shrugged; God, she was young. Couldn’t have been more than thirteen. Younger even.

not to tell people what to do but as someone who’s been in fandom since i was like twelve, i promise that the only good fandom experience involves limiting your friend circle to, like, seven people. when you’re in a city, you don’t make friends with every douchebag on the street. stringently vet the people who are allowed to influence you. in an age of people and companies constantly demanding your attention and energy, your happiness will grow best like flowers in a greenhouse in a terrible city; a contained, curated space allows happiness to flourish. keep it small and don’t be sorry to tell people to stay the fuck out of your greenhouse.

"Tiffany “New York” Pollard — the queen of reality TV, the HBIC herself — is opening up like never before. In a new interview with "PinkNews," she shared why she resonates with being non-binary, saying, “Some days I may feel a lot more masculine, and some days I’m super feminine — and that’s okay… shoving me back in the closet is never going to be an option.” Tiffany went on to say, “If I didn’t have such a strong connection to the queer fanbase that I have, I don’t know if I would still be in the game… They keep the HBIC alive!”"

The Monarch of Meme was already queer, and we're happy to see her discovery. Black queer folk CONTINUE TO WIN 👑

On this day, 14 October 1977, anti-gay crusader Anita Bryant was “pied” in the face by Thom Higgins, a gay rights activist. Bryant, who was already well-known as a singer, led Save Our Children, a homophobic campaigning group which successfully overturned legal protections for LGBT+ people in Dade County, Florida. Bryant had declared about homosexuality: “I will lead such a crusade to stop it as this country has not seen before.” After being pied, Bryant burst into tears and began praying. Bryant was also brand ambassador for Florida orange juice, which then became subjected to a mass boycott campaign. Gay bars replaced screwdrivers (vodka and orange juice cocktails) with “Anita Bryants” – made with vodka and apple juice, with the profits donated to the campaign. Bryant’s lucrative orange contract subsequently lapsed and her marriage failed, which caused her to be ostracised by some Christian fundamentalists who did not approve of her divorce. Later in life, Bryant’s homophobic views softened, and she stated she was “more inclined to say live and let live”. In 1998, Dade County reintroduced legal protections for LGBT+ people, and efforts by Christian groups to overturn them failed. We’ve produced a number of podcasts about LGBT+ history, you can check them out here: https://workingclasshistory.com/tag/lgbtq/ https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.1819457841572691/2109212745930531/?type=3

getting Fight Song by Rachel Platten stuck in your head is the mental health equivalent of your body telling you that you NEED more vitamin C or you ARE going to get scurvy

God Bless people who dress wild and go out in public. I love seeing a woman in all pink with pink hair and pink nails, with a tiny dog in a pink outfit in her bag. Or a massively goth dude covered in piercings sporting a giant green mohawk. Cosplayers. SCA reenactors. Ren Faire people. There’s nothing I love more than a pair of handsome young men walking around in Revolutionary War outfits. Just please keep dressing wild and freaky. You bring color to life, and it never fails to put a big smile on my face.

Going offline for awhile due to being unable to afford my internet bill (or food, or anything really). This is goodbye for now and I don't know for how long.

If you're in the DC metro area and in a position to hire me for, well, just about anything that doesn't require a college degree or a car, I have office and customer service experience. A dm here will still be forwarded to me.

And if you're in a position to help out, I have a cashapp at $KateW3928.

Wish me luck.
