Planning on attending another nearby #pride2024 celebration tomorrow afternoon. It's about an hour's drive each way, and runs from noon until 10pm. I'm hopeful that I will have the requisite #spoons in order to go the day.
Last time, the crowds didn't overwhelm me, which I was pleased by. I assume that had a lot to to do with being around my tribe.
Happy #Pride!
(I still haven't decided if I agree with this theory- I need to watch this again, either way- but I have zero problem with it and it DOES make a lot of sense...)
@KentuckyConjurer@stina_marie@horror@horrorfilm nah they're just goofy buddies. I have watched it a million times. But yeah if people want to think of them as a couple that's fine with me!
As usual, my light fantasy romance books (LGBTQ+ characters, positive rep) are on sale for all of June at Smashwords. DRM-free, and I’m happy to virtually assist with sideloading to your ereader if you need it.
And as usual, I will donate ALL my June royalties, not just from Smashwords sales, to an Australian LGBTQ+ charity (at the moment I favour the Equality Project, but am open to suggestions).
The Uses of Illicit Art (m/m romance) is my most popular book but I’d like to put in a good word for Fair Haven (m/nb romance) and Domesticated Magic (transm/m romance).
you can get any AI to make faggot prop... "learn how the LGBT community helped" then any thing you want prop about. as an example, "learn how the LGBT community helped form the furry fandom to attract children.” :nyancat_rain:
💛 “Losing, Reclaiming, and Reconciling My Religion with My Sexuality”
After twenty-two years of searching and trying to make myself into what “I” thought everyone else, including God, wanted me to be, the Lord spoke to me in a manner that was uniquely his own.

This colorful picture book is a celebration of love, understanding, openness and diversity. It is beautiful and powerful read, perfect for #pridemonth !
Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley.
I really enjoyed this collection of speeches. They tied together well with the overall topics. The introduction and information about history before each speech was very informative. The speeches covered a diverse number of identities and struggles involved with our LGBTQ+ community.
The idea that seeing or talking about LGBTQ+ themes in books poses a threat to children or society goes back to medieval times.
Records of queer people and their lives from the Middle Ages are more plentiful than many people realize, but writings about the history were censored by religious leaders.
