My Spearmint Brings All The He/shes To The Yard, And They're Like

My gender today is pumpernickel without the eral.

PumpNick.

Thus is the defining characteristic of gay millennials: we straddle the pre-Glee and post-Glee worlds. We went to high school when faggot wasn't even considered an F-word, when being a lesbian meant boys just didn't want you, when being nonbinary wasn't even a remote option. We grew up without queer characters in our cartoons or Nickelodeon or Disney or TGIF sitcoms. We were raised in homophobia, came of age as the world changed around us, and are raising children in an age where it's never been easier to be same-sex parents. We're both lucky and jealous. As the state of gay evolved culturally and politically, we were old enough to see it and process it and not take it for granted--old enough to know what the world was like without it. Despite the success of Drag Race, the existence of lesbian Christmas rom-coms, and openly transgender Oscar nominees, we haven't moved on from the trauma of growing up in a culture that hates us. We don't move on from trauma, really. We can't really leave it in the past. It becomes a part of us, and we move forward with it.

For LGBTQ+ milennials, our pride is couched in painful memories of a culture repulsed and frightened by queerness. That makes us skittish. It makes us loud. It makes us fear that all this progress, all this tolerance [...] can vanish as quickly as it all appeared.

Okay so I have like 5 other tumblrs and I'm curious to see if there's any overlap for any so have my shameless plug I guess (is it a shameless plug if I don't care about followers? Dunno)

@cherub-chemurgist This is my main. I use this one to scroll through tumblr and reblog anything interesting.

@fractionalfictionalfanciful I made this one to reblog fanfic recs and masterlists to supplement my own Fanfic Masterlist

@soupisasandwich I actually made this one because my girlfriend and I get into wierd arguments all the time. (ie "Rootbeer float in a bowl, is it soup?" The answer is no)

@minecrafting-is-yunecrafting I reblog minecraft inspiration pieces and tutorials here, as well as interesting IRL architecture

@katlandyouneedtoseethis My partner doesn't have a tumblr but she's logged into mine on her phone, when I see tumblr posts I want to show her I reblog them to this and she scrolls through them every once in a while

If you follow any of these let me know! Thanks! ^^
