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

This message is for anyone scrolling through tumblr right now feeling that uncomfortable settling in your stomach and chest.
It's heavy and impulsive. It runs down your arms and into your hands. It tingles and it feels so scary.
Tears forming in your eyes for no real reason.
You feel empty inside, maybe. Hollow because of the quiet of the night or simply the quiet in your mind.
You are not alone.
Be at ease, my friend.
I love you. I am proud of you. I'm happy you're alive and here to read this message from me. You mean so much to so many people. I just wanted to make sure you know.
Take a deep breath. Drink lots of water and get plenty of rest. Maybe eat something if you haven't recently and take in some sunshine, if you can.
I believe in you.
hey not to be a killjoy but can y’all spread the carrd about what’s going on in Poland
obvious warning for homophobia, transphobia, etc. in the link above.
I was born there. I have countless of LGBT friends there, and the fact that this is happening in the year 2020 is inhumane and terrifying.
If you’re Polish, vote in the upcoming election. If you’re not polish, please spread the carrd around.
I am not an ideology. Nie jestem ideologią.
Found this recipe on eat this much.
So I won’t take any credits for it.
On this blog we support tiddies
how about this: when i was 9 and my stepdad beat me until i passed out and i told my friends at school, my teacher over heard and i was interviewed by cps. they also went to my house when i was at school. when i got home, my step father was waiting on the couch, and told me who visited him that day. he told me if i ever snitched again he would beat me to within an inch of my life.
how about this: my mother locked me out of the house when i was 14 and when i cried so loud the neighbors called the cops, the cop told me i should have been respectful of my mother who was trying to sleep.
how about this. the demon you know is less scary than the demon you don’t.
children in abused households are raised to fear the idea of being taken away. children in abusive households see that help makes things worse.
dont you ever blame an abuse victim for not going to the authorities.
them: if you keep talking about how pretty girls are, it will make people think you’re gay
