Mine has been ok. Did some subtle bi stuff and came out to a friend but I'm just tired of bigots everywhere.

I could complain all evening but I'm just tired of our identity being seen as immoral. Just tired of my super religious community tbh

i got covid… so, not great. :P the big pride celebrations in my city were also all right at the beginning of the month when i was still super sick so i missed them all.

keep up your covid precautions please… covid is still out there and it can hit you really hard! i have to say sitting there reading about all these maskless queer club events while i had covid felt very darkly funny

Sorry to hear that friend 😕

Mine has been okay! Tensions seem higher than previous years. But I luckily live in a very blue state so I feel pretty safe even when celebrating.

I'm sorry your community is stifling. However, I do have faith that one day, when you've had a chance to cultivate your loved ones, you will find the support you deserve now.

As far as for me, we do our pride celebrations in July in my city. But I live in the gay neighborhood so there has been lots of activity and lots of smiling faces and pride flags of all kinds about. So it's been good so far. Definitely looking forward to the celebrations really ramping up in a couple weeks! Be well friend!
