Desperate lesbian who likes to journal and read

[lonely-wandering-heart]

Ok not been here in a while but I can’t post about this anywhere else as I’m not out to my parents and they follow my socials…

Anyway I attended my first pride event!

It was a book event about the importance of Queer bookshops. It was so affirming to be surrounded by queer people and having queerness be the default for once in conversation and not the bit added on.

And I met the authors and got my books signed and one of the authors, June Thomas wrote in my book something that has two meanings both of which hit me hard in the chest.

Nothing like being with your family who don’t know you are a lesbian and playing a quiz and the question “What does Chappell Roan, Renee Rap and Girl in Red have in common?”

And SLAPPING YOUR HAND ON THE TABLE AND SHOUTING:

BUZZ BUZZ! LESBIANS

And then having to come up with an excuse about why you know that answer…

I mean I got the point…

There was a female knight at the jousting show I went to. I repeat there was a FEMALE KNIGHT at the JOUSTING SHOW I went to.

Soft love in forehead kisses and warm hugs from behind, but also intense love in pulling them in by their belt loops for kisses, and hugs so tight you can barely breathe because it feels like you’ll combust with the emotional intensity consuming you.

The beauty of Kelvingrove Art Gallery

[lonely-wandering-heart]

Displayed in Kelvingrove Art Gallery - Memorial to Marriage, Patricia Cronin.

“Memorial to a Marriage is a double portrait of my partner - artist Deborah Kass - and me. A double life-size marble version of the work was installed on our burial plot in Woodlawn Cemetery, New York.

The statue addresses issues of lesbian invisibility, gay marriage, love and loss, power and status. In death I make official my "marriage", which was not legal for most of our relationship.

I wanted something that celebrated our life together. If all I would be officially allowed is death, I decided to make the most elegant and dignified statement I could about the end of our life together.

In summer 2011, the New York State Senate passed a bill allowing gay people to "marry". After 18 years together, we went to City Hall on the morning of 24 July for this service which was a step in the right direction. However, it still does not give us full equal rights with heterosexual marriage, which is recognised in all states under federal law.”

Honestly the detail in this sculpture is amazing! The time and care and love is extremely evident in this piece of art and the story behind it is truly beautiful and inspiring. I just had to share it here. ❤️

Imagine preferring a convicted felon over a woman. Imagine choosing that felon for president over a woman. Imagine choosing the convicted village idiot over a qualified woman.

A spread I made to commemorate finishing my favourite book series

[lonely-wandering-heart]

Hello again… I’d give an update but I’m still the same as before (yearning longingly for a girlfriend) just now I’m sleep deprived and stressed out of my mind.

Life’s going great.

(A girlfriend would 100% solve all my issues)
