It would take far more than a month to honor the contributions of queer and transgender New Yorkers.
From the Cercle Hermaphroditos in 1895, the first trans advocacy group in the United States, to the drag balls of the Harlem Renaissance, to the Stonewall uprising, to the Lesbian Herstory Archives, to ACT UP!, founded in 1987 as queer people fought for their lives while the Reagan administration looked away, New York City's history has long been shaped by queer and trans New Yorkers.
To all our queer and trans neighbors: you deserve a City where you can afford to live safely, openly, and joyfully.
Happy Pride, New York City.
I know there’s a Chinese equivalent of me that’s far more efficient at tasks and less addicted to his phone but I also know that he’ll never laugh or love the way that I do. And he’ll never have AMC movie pass
Please help me get the attention of @LudwigAhgren
I really want to compete and go to Super Nova this year. I really want to make my mom proud. Like and share wherever, pretty pretty please. 🥹💛⚡️
it’s never felt so bad to be online
I understand being this close to what’s happening gives me a certain perspective, but it feels like many people who have nothing to lose have the most to say regarding the fires.
To them, it’s just another “”moment in pop culture”” to comment on or react to, a way to get attention online - by attaching to forcefully relatable ideas, aka tragedies everyone is currently aware of. Imagine seeing photos of what’s going on and as a core instinct wondering ARE THERE ANY LIKES AND RETWEETS IN THIS FOR MEEEEEEEE ??
using any one of an array of fire related keywords should prompt users to donate before tweeting, you can choose between donating or blowing your head off with a shotgun but the tweet button is greyed out
