the "no kink at pride" people are swiftly radicalizing me from "kink at pride is not a big deal" to "ONLY KINK AT PRIDE"

i don't know how to make it any fucking clearer than this:"don't hold hands with your boyfriend in public, we all know you have sex with him"

google has been around for longer than gay sex has been legal in all of america. when super mario sunshine was released, a man could be arrested for having sex with another man in the US.

we had to have a fucking supreme court case saying you can't actually put people in Literal Goddamned Jail for having gay sex. that's in living memory of every adult in the fucking country because if it were a person, it wouldn't be old enough to vote yet!!

i literally just saw "pride isn't about sex" and i feel like i'm in an AU. people like me were still being called "sodomites" pretty regularly and publicly while i was growing up and that wasn't that long ago, what the fuck is happening here

Republicans and right wing media outlets told them there were monsters under their beds, and they believed it. Now they’re crippling democracy across the country to chase away these imaginary fears.Democrats have to protect voting rights, and now.

I’m a queer parent, and tbh if you don’t want to have to explain shit to your kid at Pride that has hard answers or crosses the line of what you feel is comfortable, don’t fucking take them. Pride didn’t start as a PR campaign to impress the wine moms in your book club.

lil nas x didn't give satan a lapdance for y'all to get on here and ask queer people to tone it down for the children
Y’all motherfuckers realize that the increase of kink at pride in the 80s was a direct response to cishets framing queer sex as a shameful death sentence during the height of the AIDS crisis, rightThey told us it was a punishment from god
So we chose to rule hell in style

Who needs drugs when you can just tell someone that every odd number has the letter 'e' in it & then sit back and watch while they speedrun through all seven stages of grief

Your daily reminder that it doesn't matter how "pure" or "wholesome" lgbt+ representation is or how lgbt+ people behave in public. Homophobes hate us anyway. So stop shaming other lgbt+ people to appease homophobes.https://twitter.com/lizcourserants/status/1303870886152372225

Fuck all these "leftists" hand-wringing about teenagers being exposed to sexuality, and fuck this purity culture bullshit.
I expect it from the Right, but fuck me, seeing it from so-called "leftists" hurts.

“Things like due process and ‘rights’ are so messy, and rich people should just be able to summon a merc w/ an app on their phone” is saying the quiet part with a damn bullhorn.
Which makes perfect sense, because purity culture is extremely driven by anxiety when faced with a complicated world where it’s sometimes hard to know what the right thing is, and where you are frequently wrong, and do not control most of it.
One of the things I think is core to purity culture in all its manifestations is the notion that human beings aren’t really that complicated, or that it’s good to be simple and nuance is somehow a marker of impurity and badness.

And in fact? I feel like this is part of a larger flattening of sex and sexuality and what those things are and mean that is *massively* influenced by American Puritanism/purity culture, that reduces a rich and complicated thing to something two-dimensional and vaguely icky.
@Chinchillazllla I’m sick of people saying, “don’t make young queers uncomfortable at Pride.” When I was a young queer, I was terrified by men acting fem. TERRIFIED! That was my internalized homophobia, and it was on ME to get over myself, not the job of my elders to “tone it down.”
and they say that his block list grew four sizes that day
Hmm...what do all these people have in common?
same
I'm so exhausted by this latest wave of anti-sex "for the children" posturing coming from ostensible leftists. It's vile.

If the existence of trans people is knowledge restricted to adults, a lot of trans people will never make it to adulthood.

I will never forgive the entertainment industry for convincing so many people that persistence in the face of rejection is a successful courtship strategy or that a grand romantic gesture can substitute for actual two-way communication

It is understood throughout the GOP as the only way to win national elections.

@nytimes In Portland we modestly cut the police funding back to 2017 levels. According to a whistleblower in 911 dispatch, the Police starting clearing emergency calls w/o responding and GPS showed them parked in the same spot for hours. This is a stoppage by a protection racket.
Weird how $300/week in unemployment is a "handout" but $1.9 trillion in tax cuts, $800 billion in PPP and trillions to prop up the stock market is a "stimulus"

Thread about MAGA violence and calling it out. MTG's comments aren't just about Nazis. Her words are in line with a narrative of Trumpism: endorsing violence or threat of violence for political gain, a throughline from 2016 to 1/6 to disenfranchisement efforts. 1/https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1396205444117536775
