i'm late, but happy pride besties🏳‍🌈🏳‍⚧

"And my love for my parents felt so oppressive because it belonged in a separate category, a honesty that I couldn't afford to myself in any other part of my life. When you have access to something that feels sacred in a life in which everything else is dim and mirrored, you want to hold onto it more. Surely it is worth it, above all earthly comfort. Surely, if the love you're born into is so boundless, your luck ran out at birth. And best not to test it. So you don't feel like a person, you feel like an intrusive thought. Why bother with transitioning? It would be greedy to want more than what you already won." ... "But you need to show gratitude to the gifts in your life in ways tailored to them. You can't respond to love by closing your heart. It's a deep misunderstanding of the flow of life. Love is not a finite resource, the way mercy is when it comes from cruel people." ... "Your responsibility isn't to fit into the love you've been assigned to. It is to thrive from it, to carry it into the world and use it like a language, like a resource for so many heretofore untapped." ... "I haven't done anything against the cosmos by wanting to be fully myself. I haven't broken the terms of my special gift by wanting the world to see me as I am. My body isn't a condition of the love I was assigned."

happy birthday draco malfoy, my pointiest boi.

incredibly jealous of people who can read books in a moving vehicle and not feel like vomiting their guts out during it and afterwards

به من ربطی نداره که شما توی پاییز و زمستون افسردگی فصلی می‌گیرید. من دلم هوای سرد و خورشید رو به مرگ می‌خواد.

More like "I'm already depressed and dont give a fuck about y'all and just wanna be able to wear my comfy hoodies to imitate the feeling of warmth and drown in the illusion of being hugged"

anon can i give you a big smooch please?

من تو رو خیلی "sherlock is actually a girl's name."

من تو رو خیلی «بروید ای حریفان بکشید یار ما را
به من آورید آخر صنم گریزپا را
به ترانه‌های شیرین به بهانه‌های زرین
بکشید سوی خانه مه خوب خوش لقا را
وگر او به وعده گوید که دمی دگر بیایم
همه وعده مکر باشد بفریبد او شما را
دم سخت گرم دارد که به جادوی و افسون
بزند گره بر آب او و ببندد او هوا را
به مبارکی و شادی چو نگار من درآید
بنشین نظاره می‌کن تو عجایب خدا را
چو جمال او بتابد چه بود جمال خوبان
که رخ چو آفتابش بکشد چراغ‌ها را
برو ای دل سبک رو به یمن به دلبر من
برسان سلام و خدمت تو عقیق بی‌بها را»

“What people do in the bedroom is none of my business” isn’t the epitome of allyhood, despite what some may like to think:

First of all, being queer is not simply about what happenes in the bedroom, and that is an objectifying and reductive narrative that leads to fetishization. queerness has less to do with your aesthetic or who you sleep with and more to do with decolonizing your understanding of gender.
defining queer in the limited scope of “what happenes in the bedroom” isn’t simply ignorant. It’s a warning, it’s a demand by the faux ally: “keep it in the bedroom.”
“Don’t shove it into my face. Why is this character in this netflix show gay?”
Queerness is not a costum. It’s not something i wear for cosplay in the bedroom, it’s not lingerie, so i can’t simply take it off when i’m outside of the bedroom and just stop being queer unless i’m having sex. It is part of my identity and I carry it with me everywhere.
This reductive definition of queerness also contributes to the erasure of asexual people and those who are genderqueer. Are trans people only the gender they identify as “in the bedroom”?
They say it’s “none of their business” but they’re actually doing business with queer people. This is their deal: “don’t exist “too loudly” and i won’t lobby against your rights.”
Secondly, “what people do in the bedroom….” is not an actual belief system. Rather it’s a sentence used to deflect and shield oneself from different ways of thinking and above that, different ways of existing. It allows for oxymorons such as “Christian ally” to exist. It results in a case of “split brain”, where on one side, the “Chrisrian ally” receits all sorts of bigoted and hateful things in their local church, and on the other hand they just avoid the responsibility of recognizing other people’s different reality and actually having to think about them by saying “it’s none of my buisnuss” and shrugging if off. This way, they can keep their bigoted beliefs and they don’t need to do the hard work of thinking about the possible harmful consequences of their prejudiced beliefs and digging into their own brain. It requires minimal self reflection to think like this. Even if this line of thinking qualified as allyhood, it would be the laziest way of being an ally. It’s very close to dealing with queer people by just ignoring them all around, instead of actually asking yourself why is it that you believe the things you believe?
The christian way of being an ally is just “turning the other cheek”.
They tell themselves, “out of sight, out of mind.” But will they settle for this? Or will they continue their bigotry in the safe haven of their churches untill queer people are not only out of the Christian allys’ mind, but also out of jobs, out of public schools, out of the political scene and etc.? It’s none of their business until it is. It’s none of their buisnuss until it’s their own children who are queer. Which brings me to my third point:
In “It’s none of my business what people do in the bedroom”, bedroom is code for “outside of my territory, outside of my house”. What happenes if a queer person is very much in the christian ally’s “territory”? What happenes if it’s their own child is queer? Conversion therapy?
