“Zara Kay, An Australian Citizen And Founder Of Faithless Hijabi, Was Summoned To The Dar Es-Salaam

Jesus fucking Christ I just remembered a suppressed memory… when I chopped off all my hair in high school, the stylist first asked if I had a boyfriend, if he knew I was cutting my hair, and then made me step out on the back deck to call him to ask if it was okay that I was getting a haircut.

the legendary post... I’ve only ever seen screenshots

I’ll never not be amused by the fact that I can drop the words “crucifix nail nipples” into a conversation and some of you who have been with me since the livejournal days will join me in the flashbacks, screaming and crying all the way.

Starkid 2020: there is no ethical consumption under capitalism death is inevitable and no amount of material wealth can fill the gaping void in your miserable life

also I learned about this project called “queering the map.” the idea is that in the past gay neighborhoods and gay spaces were very clearly defined bc it just wasn’t safe to be yourself anywhere else. as lgbt+ people become more visible and accepted many feel that we are losing our connection to those spaces

so every dot on this map is basically someone’s queer experience: coming out, meeting their future wife, seeing another gay man in public for the first time, anything you can think of that truly left a mark on them

it started in Montreal and is primarily English-language with most pins dropped in the US, Canada, and Europe, but there are people all over the world who’ve shared their experiences. it’s great to look at places near you but it’s also great to see that even people in places you thought were the middle of nowhere are happy with themselves and finding community and living their lives

Ready for spring
