    My first ever Pride! Such a fun weekend being surrounded by Queer love and listening to great music 😍 I fucking love being part of this community 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

  • People who say this go out and vote for democrats with a straight face 😆

  • Reached a new level of queer last night after accidentally finding myself at a drag show 🤣 The Queens brought it tho. What an amazing show 😍

    Today is Bi Visibility Day; the first since I came out earlier this year. The announcement didn’t go well with close family, but that wasn’t a surprise 🙄 Unfortunately, that’s not a unique experience. Bisexual people are constantly marginalized and erased. Many think bisexuality is “just a phase,” a precursor to being gay or lesbian,…

  • Four Corners Reports on Pattern of Abuse Cover Up within Jehovah’s Witnesses Religion

    As some of you may know, I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness. In 2019, I decided to leave this organization after finding serious abuse cover up and coming across factual information that disproves the religion’s doctrine. One of the stories this report touches on is of a young man that committed suicide after being disfellowshipped…

  • Kiana Ledé Understands the Messy Pleasure of Liking “Ur Best Friend” Ledé is no stranger to exploring juicy yet convoluted relationship dynamics in her youthful R&B. In 2018, the Los Angeles-based singer and actor broke out with her first hit, “Ex,” a song about getting back together with a past lover that showcased Ledé’s powerful,…

    Here we are at the end of Pride Month, and I didn’t get into half of the gay shit I wanted to. But that’s ok, I still got my bi/pan rebel alliance tattoo. And you better believe I’m pushing the alphabet mafia agenda with this hot-ass photo. To my fellow queers: It’s ok if you…

  • 41 homophobic things straight people say every day without realising You’re probably homophobic. Even if you don’t think you are, or if you don’t mean to be, I guarantee that on a regular basis you say homophobic things you don’t even realise are actually incredibly rude and harmful. Good reminder for the straights out there. If…

  • I really enjoyed reading this article. Relationship anarchy is such a beautiful philosophy ❤️

    I wanted to say something yesterday, but here I am today because I overthought the shit out of this post. In case you didn’t know, I’m bisexual and polyamorous. It’s scary as fuck for me to type that out, but it’s my truth. This is me. As scary as it is to come out given…

    My new Pride 🏳️‍🌈 flag is officially up!

  • Sex-Positivity Means Unlearning Shame For years, I believed that something was wrong with me for being curious about sex for pleasure. I felt wrong for fantasizing about being sexually intimate with someone. I saw sex as something strange and dangerous, not just for the physical risks it posed to the body, but for how quickly…

  • Religious mother demands daughter’s school drops ‘LGBT+ support day’ because it would ‘incite hostility’ She said her daughter was a sophomore at the school, and that she had been “delighted” so far with her education, but that she was “very concerned about the repercussions of choosing to focus next week’s daily dress-up days to feature…

  • Looks like the LGBTQ+ community is going through a period of increasing hate in Turkey. Solidarity with them as they continue to protest the violation of their human rights.

  • I watched Out today. Another amazing short film from Pixar. It’s a great story, and the end had me in tears. If you haven’t watched it, I definitely recommend it.

  • Does God Really Hate Queers?

    Here’s a fascinating, heartwarming, and heartbreaking video about being queer and whether it’s also possible to have a faith. Interestingly, my former religion makes an appearance just to show the world how horrible it is. Jehovah’s Witnesses are not accepting of LGBTQ people. Joshua, a gay man that is featured in the video, explains how…

  • I had no idea Chris Stuckmann used to be a Jehovah’s Witness. His latest video is a small peak into the life of being one, and as a former member myself, it’s pretty horrifying. It brings me much joy to see fellow exJWs happy and pursuing their dreams. I hope to one day have the…
