in chess the queens can kill each other which is toxic yuri and the kings can never get within a square of each other which is doomed yaoi

yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.

[storm-of-feathers]

I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

You Are Trans Enough:

Even if…

• You tend to present toward your assigned gender just because it’s easier that way

• You don’t always feel like or think it’s worth it to correct people who misgender you

• You aren’t out to your closest family, friends, and/or S.O(s)

• Sometimes you are perfectly comfortable presenting in line with your assigned gender

• You don’t feel dysphoria everyday

• You didn’t start to notice/acknowledge your trans identity until later in life

• You aren’t ready to use the bathroom where YOU feel most comfortable

• You pass as cis and you’re okay with that

• You aren’t binary trans

• You are still working to discover who you truly are

YOU. ARE. TRANS. ENOUGH.

PSA love island USA starts tonight on peacock the streaming app peacock, for anyone who wants to follow along with the epic highs and lows of being a hot dumb mostly-heterosexual slut (gender neutral and that's the most complimentary thing i can say about it, the men they recruit for this show are required to slut it up just as much as the women) with a modest tiktok following in fiji this summer. also there's a 2-time paralympian on this season!! just a cool fun fact not a "there's representation" cajoling qualification, i just think it's cool that they cast an amputee with an olympic medal on the hot dumb sluts in fiji show

[roycohn]

also one of my favorite things about love island is that they film on the same island in fiji as survivor and the survivor people have talked about how they can hear all the screeching and screaming and woo-girling from the love island villa while they're eating their hateful rice and coconuts and i'm not saying i support the monopolization of what's left of our discrete media companies whatsoever BUT if The Eldest Son insists on buying every media corporation whatsoever the least they could do is give us a crossover between these shows in a few years

when people defend the “Cis white guy is default” thing like “He’s meant to be an everyman we can all relate to and project on!” kindly remind them the largest ethnic group in the WORLD is Han Chinese and the highest gender percentage fluctuates so if you want an ACTUAL  “default” you want a 40 year old chinese person whose gender changes from year to year.

The trope where people don't recognize each other because it's been so long since they last interacted and they've both changed so much that they're basically strangers UNTIL one of them does their Signature Thing™ and the other just stops dead because oh. It's YOU. All at once it's so clearly you

do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets

her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.

remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.

thank you, Marsha. we remember you.
