Pride Month

Looks like June has rolled around once again. Happy pride month, folks! We've come a long way, but we still have lots of progress to strive for and achieve, and we especially need it now. I just wanted to quickly list off some things I think more queer people should understand and accept and promote, so that we can all grow just that bit stronger and more resilient:


And for the fellow bisexuals:

Never Forget

The greedy and exploitative corporations, dysfunctional or outright fascist governments, and their armies of soldiers and police will never have a place in pride. They always have and always will prioritize their own power and wealth over the rights and safety of queer people, and suppress the voices and freedoms of the marginalized and poor to stay on top. They are always an enemy, regardless of if they put a pride flag in their social media profile banner or pump out a bunch of rainbow-themed shit to sell. We didn't earn any of our rights by politely asking for them, we rioted for them. We won't have them enshrined and protected by politely asking, we must fight hard and ruthlessly for it.

Respect existence, or expect resistance.
