I Remember The Carrots Ada Limón

This June, I need Gen Z queers to understand that some people are closeted.

[canichangemyblogname]

I am saying this as a Gen Z queer, before y’all get your guns out to fucking shoot me.

But I need y’all to understand that if someone doesn’t give you their government name in a queer space, it’s not because they’re “mysterious,” and you do not have permission to take it upon yourself to figure out their “real identity” and go digging for them online like a private investigator. First, that’s creepy and a violation of privacy and reasonable boundaries. Second, some of us keep our private and professional lives very separate because we need to keep food on the fucking table and a roof over our heads, and our private life could jeopardize that.

[canichangemyblogname]

“Why won’t you tell me about your parents?” “Why can’t I know your real name?” “Where do you work?”

1.) Not all our parents would bake us a fucking cake when we come out. Some of us are closeted. Surely you understand this? You also do not need to know my parent’s names or occupations; we are both adults. I do not need nor want to mix you and my private life with my parents and my public life.

2.) Trans people do not owe you their dead name or government name

3.) I’m not telling you for the sake of job security. I am a government fucking caseworker working amidst a fucking lavender panic!

“There’s no way you’re a different person outside this; you’re still you at your core. What harm is there—”

No, I am a completely different person. A different person with a different personality and different interests and a different name and presentation. I am a completely different person because I keep this life and my public life private to avoid fracturing 90% of my interpersonal relationships and 100% of my professional ones.

“You’re not out? But you’re so confident.”

See— that’s part of the issue. Y’all assume someone is in the closet because they hate themselves or lack self-identity. Some of us know exactly who we are, but need to prioritize financial stability or else our entire life gets exponentially harder immediately.

[canichangemyblogname]

You meet queer people over the age of 40 and one of the first/earliest questions is “who knows?”

I need y’all to start bringing that energy. Because it’s not always safe for someone to be out and not everyone is safe to be out around.

There is a misnomer that “the closet” inherently means “doesn’t know they’re queer” and not “isn’t out widely and publicly.” “Outness” is often a patchwork.

[the-scottish-costume-guy]

Even if someone who isnt out does share any life details with you, you keep those to yourself. You tread carefully and assume others dont know until told otherwise. And sometimes you lie and help keep that closet door shut. It is ok to feel super weird about it if someone comes out to you as trans but tells you to only use their preferred name and pronouns privately just the two of you. It's fine to feel uncomfortable when people ask you if a gay person has an opposite gendered partner. It is so valid to feel weird and bad deadnaming someone even though they requested it. It stops being valid if you do anything other than they asked. Feel your feelings, and keep them to yourself - someone else's identity isn't about you.

My mentally stable son (and essek my son in law)

[artsymeeshee]

Finally finished the comic! Wasn’t expecting for it to take this long but it’s here regardless.

I know this probably isn’t what some were expecting, with me involving McGucket, but it was an idea that struck me a year or so ago and I kind of latched onto it (don’t know why it took so long to actually draw it out but). There will be a second part to follow this, I just need to write everything out. I’ll also explain my reasoning for these two to interact specifically in the second part since it ties into it. First time writing dialogue for both of them so hopefully it isn’t too out-of-character for either TwT

A tidbit for those who may not know, but Alex has said that Pacifica works at Greasy’s Diner after the events of the show (hence why she’s in a dress similar to Lazy Susan’s). Also first time drawing old man McGucket! He’s such a delight to draw, I don’t know why it took me so long to finally draw him 😭 I’ve done a great disservice 😔

Stolas finding Striker's knife?

IMP have it.

Striker used it to jam Moxxie's gun, which he puts in the van, before joining the fight.

It's even possible that Moxxie, the little weapon nut he is, also kept the blessed rope that Stolas was tied up with.

Because Millie likely untied Stolas on the way to the hospital, instead of wasting time doing it before.

And that knife gets a ton of focus in Stolas' PTSD flash back.

It's likely to be around the office somewhere.
