Sometimes i feel like younger queer kids are getting a bit to bold with openly talking to people they don’t know In The Context Of:
More than once i have had a younger/same age queer person come up to me in public settings and say something about “finding other gays” or clearly clocking me as nonbinary and I’m like :)))))))) hey buddy I’m here with my conservative parents can you fucking not out me :))))))))
Just say you like my outfit or hair and move on, fuck even tell me you like my shoelaces. Don’t call me gay and limp your wrist at me when you don’t even know me? Especially when there’s a bunch of ppl around?
i was out with my ex once when three *very* young queer kids, like thirteen years old, came up to us and asked us “are you guys, you know…” and did the limp wrist thing at us. one of them loudly exclaimed that it was so cool to meet other queer people in real life. this was in public in an unbelievably conservative area - we didn’t even feel safe holding hands because we were surrounded by Mormons. we got lucky that day, but I’m begging y’all to remember that the world doesn’t work like the internet. other queers are real fuckin people. don’t do this shit. OP is right; tell me you like my jacket, or my patches, or the rainbow spokes on my wheelchair, but don’t out either of us!
This used to be standard operating procedure not even ten years ago: NEVER OUT OTHER QUEERS, even if they’re supposedly already out. Never assume that it’s okay to let third parties know that so-and-so is queer. Ever. You never know when you’ve found the one uncle with the heart condition that they can’t bear to risk telling, or the one neighbor who’s just threatening enough that they don’t mention it around, or even the grandma that they haven’t gotten around to mentioning it to yet. You might have just ruined a very important milestone for someone, or you could have put them at actual risk of harm.
Also… stop freaking assuming. If you don’t see a pride flag on them, please don’t just assume. You can’t tell ANYTHING about a person’s gender or partner preferences by what they’re wearing on any given day, what their hair looks like, or whether or not they’re using makeup. You legit cannot, and you look like a jerk when you try.
this is even more important now that Trump is in power.
some people will be choosing to live in the closet and it is not your job to pressure them one way or the other.
protect your lgbtq siblings - honor their choices - and never talk to cops, collaborators, and snitches.
Younger queer people have grown up in a better world, but we’re in a time of backsliding right now. Do NOT out other queer people. Also, I’m not gonna tell you how to present yourselves in public………..but please, I am begging you to re-evaluate HOW safe you are in the current climate.
WE DID NOT CALLS YOU A SLUR. SMÉAGOL CAN RECLAIMS IT
the fact that the switch 2 tech demo tutorial 'game' costs money and is digital only is insane. remember when every wii came with wii sports for free? do you remember that? i am going to hunt down the nintendo execs for sport
If we lived in an imagined idyllic age of days gone by, Sony would be running TV ads featuring a guy with frosted tips in a sports car saying shit like "switch 2? Try switching 2 Playstation instead" and he'd drive off and you see his car is full of beautiful women and twinks (it's woke) but they'd never do that these days
"oh why are the boys there why is it woke" I'm projecting cherry-picked pieces of modernity I personally find palatable onto my imagined idyllic past that's what makes it imagined and idyllic dipshit
The good news: you get to pick your new soulmate! (You can define "soulmate" however you want: platonic/romantic/partners in crime/etc. But they will be in your life, constantly.)
The bad news: you don't get to pick where they come from.
Spin this wheel until you get a fandom with characters that you recognize. As soon as you do, stop. One of those people* is going to be a constant presence in your life, whether you like it or not. So choose wisely.

this is an incredible map

When will Hollow Knight Silksong come out?
According to Nostradamus, Silksong will come out on a day without a night once the chosen one has brought balance to the force by fighting an agent and winning while a bridge collapse kills 46 so the sleeper named for the mouse shape on the moon can awaken the ten plagues of Egypt and ingest the bodies of the four men who opened his tomb before the birthmarked child kills the queen who pulled the sword from a stone on March 15th once the forests walk and a man who was never born kills a guy so his soul can be used as a weapon in the war on heaven and the chosen undead collects the lordvessel.
All that is to say, September 12th, 2025.
This post from a day before the Direct just got more interesting lol
Ice cold takes from a Transgender Woman:
- Not all Men are evil
- Everyone has the capacity for evil
- Transgender Men are men
- Transgender Women are women
- Excluding Cisgender Men from your spaces requires Transgender Men to out themselves if they want to engage (Same for Women)
- Anyone can be Non-Binary, there is no "look" or requirement
- Non-binary masculine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces, many are just treated as men and predators
- Non-binary feminine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces without being seen as "Woman-Lite"
Oh my god we need to bring back internet safety lessons in school because you should NOT be posting personal information and pictures of yourself as a "single teen" in a PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE GROUP!!! I do not care if their rules say "over 18 will be banned" you are making yourself a giant flashing target for predators!!!
This is how you get groomed, guys. I hate to be blunt, but getting groomed fucking sucks so I'd rather be blunt than have someone go through that. Don't go on "single teen" forums. Ever.
even if it wasn't intended that way this is basically a pedophile honeypot, Jesus
my wife is constantly mocking me for how lightly done I like my toast. “your hot bread is done,” she says to me. disgusting
I want everyone who’s unearthed this after 5 years to reblog it and say “lmao me” to know that getting divorced from this person was one of the best decisions of my life
