Hi there! I remember you had archived the Rise of the Pink Ladies episodes on Google Drive as they aired and I’m sure people will be interested in those links again now that the show has been cancelled and will be stricken from the app. Would you mind posting them again, or would you be okay with other people posting the links and crediting you?
i told my friend’s dad that he was hot (it was in context with the conversation, he was complaining that he was feeling old, etc), and he said a very genuine thank you and the conversation moved on to other topic, my friend was now talking about something else entirely when his dad goes
“i think if i were born in your generation i might have been bisexual”
I’m trying not to be a huge dick about it but I got a “but what about us q-slurs who are traumatized by the bad words?” on my slur reclaimation post and so I’ve made a handy guide
1. You are being called the slur.
A. If it is with malice, I am sorry for this experience, however, this situation is not at all what I was talking about.
B. If it is with affection or as a joke from other LGBTs, and it makes you uncomfortable, ask them to stop. If they don’t, they’re a dick for not respecting your boundaries.
2. You are being “forced” to see other people use the word for a larger community
A. If it bothers you then you are probably not the “fag community” to which they are referring, then. In a post? Block. Blacklist words. Block tags. Walk away. Avert your eyes. You don’t vibe with “queer community” then refer to it as LGBT. You make it sound like a “someone saying Happy Holidays means I can’t say Merry Christmas anymore” situation. You don’t have to use any words you don’t vibe with. Hate to say Dyke March or Dykes on Bikes? Don’t go to the march. Avoid the bikes.
3. You are being “forced” to hear other people use the word for themselves
A. I mean this with love and respect…suck it up. If it is so deeply triggering, remove yourself. Leave the situation. Block. Blacklist words. Block tags.
In a conversation about reclaimation, I am sorry, but you only get to decide how people refer to you, no one else. If someone else’s use upsets you, YOU have to do something about it, not them. You do not, under ANY circumstances, get to ask someone not to use dyke or fag or queer or tranny for themselves. You don’t get to ask someone not to use it/its. You don’t get to tell someone to tuck or bind because it gives you second-hand dysphoria. You do not get to decide how someone else is queer.
If being around them is that debilitating, you need to take steps to insulate yourself.
On the curate your own experience website, you should know how to do just that. There are so many guides out there. And to the complaint that “now” Pride uses all these slurs which has made Pride hostile to you, I’d invite you to crack open a book, but perhaps what you find will be too upsetting
[ID: 3 photos of old marches and protests. The first shows people marching, holding up a banner that says, “queer nation: get used to it."
In the second photo, people are holding handmade signs that say, “cocksuckers for muffdivers”, “go girls go," “we like dykes," and “fags in support of dykes."
The third photo shows many people holding a large black and pink banner that says, “international dyke march, NY, 25 June 1994." End ID.]
I loved this show and really want it to be picked up and saved. I really need a season 2!!! It had everything you need in a show: diverse representation, compelling characters, amazing songs and choreography and a fun storyline. It’s the full package! Even though the season was only streamable for like 26 days it has received nominations from the Hollywood Critics Association and for 2 Emmys!!!! The soundtrack has more streams than any Broadway show that was Tony nominated this year and is in the Billboard top 100!

So this is a visual representation of “are the new users you’re changing the entire app and website layout/features for in the room with us right now”.
