Oh look at me I’m New York City. I have a cool socialist mayor. My basketball team has perfect vibes and is up 2-0 in the finals. I have the best food and the coolest clubs. I’m the center of the world. Fuck you
food and drinks consumed in a movie theater doesn’t really go into your body. it goes into your movie theater body which is separate & holy and harm-proof
Abdul Carter says he intends to march in the New York Gay parade this year.
“Some teammates stood up for their side, now it’s my turn to stand up for my side.”
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.
y’all genuinely have to lock in this year no discourse no ironic homophobia no dumb shit we gotta uplift the community and especially trans people right now
“We live in a homophobic society, and that’s unfortunate. First of all, anybody who think we ain’t got a bunch of gay players in all sports, they’re just stupid.”
