people never stop revealing depths of themselves as they get older. case in point: i have had three friends in their late 30s/early 40s come out as bi in recent years, one in the same age bracket has reached the conclusion that he’s ace (& is now way happier), & of course lots of people are having outbreaks of The Genders, so like… idk. you can’t just expect people to have everything nailed down and sorted the second they hit puberty or before? just because someone’s taken a while to get where they’re going doesn’t mean they don’t belong there.
I came out young&early, and as a result I have been lucky enough to feel as if the ENTIRE world has slowly Gayed around me
(at this point I realized I’d been drawing the flag upside
down, but since none of these images get saved - just redrawn and
copy/pasted - there was no going back)
I love & celebrate my friends but I’m not particularly an Elder Gay ™ ! I have no answers, I am just mildly tired always, it’s just that I was out first
“The NHL launched a new stats portal called NHL EDGE on Monday, which gives fans and media access to some of the most sought-after information from the league’s player and puck tracking data, which includes metrics such as skating speed, distance traveled, shot speed, shot location and goaltending performance metrics.”
Since this just launched today it’s still a little glitchy (esp on mobile) but this is huge to have the public have access to this data!!
“Why are you so upset about adult content bans? You don’t even post that stuff. can’t you just look at porn somewhere else?”
Well, you see, I have this small problem where my very existence is considered adult content by a small but very powerful group of people and I actually rather enjoy being able to exist in public without restriction so uhhhh put that in your bong and smoke it kiddo.
I love the phrase “they get along like a house on fire”. It’s perfect. You and me have perfect chemistry and it’s setting off the carbon monoxide detectors. People are calling emergency services to get us to stop being so chummy. Someone died
I say this as someone who works at a nonprofit: the attitude “someone who has nothing will be grateful for anything” is harmful and dehumanizing when it’s used to justify donating something ripped, stained, or expired to someone less fortunate.
Homeless people deserve clothing with good structural integrity. Victims of house fires deserve linens that are free of stains. No one should have to eat expired food. It’s disrespectful to give people scraps when they’re already hurting.
Please, out of respect for your fellow humans, check the dates on your food donations before you drop them off.
To the people justifying this with “food is fine to eat past date”. If you can understand “giving someone a penny* can be a fuck you” then maybe that might help you get your mind around why this is cruel
*like as a tip, or leaving it to someone in a will
If “food is fine to eat post date” then keep it and eat it yourself, don’t dump it on a food bank and feel like you’ve done a good thing
i really hate coming out but still want my extended family to know, so my mother took it upon herself to invent the game “guess which one of my kids is gay.”
the rules are simple.
sit down with uncle so-and-so
he says something about gay people in passing
my mom says “there’s a gay person at this table right now. guess which of my kids it is!
he looks frantically between the three of us trying to figure out if she’s joking or not and trying desperately not to offend anyone but also she won’t continue with the conversation unless he makes a guess so he has to make a guess
we all enjoy his discomfort immensely
This isnt coming out of the closet. This is coughing loudly from within the closet to scare the people outside of it, which is immensely more entertaining.
