For some reason I can’t quite put my finger on, my head has not exploded to date.
All you gay football players longing to live your truth as straight men, know that I will support your coming out, no matter how confusing I will find it.
Can we file Gay Football Players Who Are Straight under “+”? That’s a lot of letters to add all at once otherwise.
Proud member of the LGBTQIAGFPWAS community.
What happens if someone other-identifies me as straight? Does it stick? Is it legally binding? Will I have to give away my new 4” shorts?
The QT at the top of the thread amazingly is still live, and I am so grateful, because it is a thing of beauty.
It reminded me of this tweet, and I checked, and it is ~also~ still out in the world over a year later, despite being spectacularly witless. (All major Pride events had already been canceled by that point.)

Bless.

Good riddance
I am going to miss the work of her stylist, however, and the "madam at a high-end brothel on Tatooine" looks we were treated to.
I mean, look at this. Art.

In honor of #Pride, a handy guide in the use of the f-slur historically levelled at gay men

Are you gay?

If yes, you may use that word around other gays who do not mind that word. (I am not one such gay. Sorry about that.)

If no, then never. Not ever.
I would further suggest that, even if you are gay, you should strenuously avoid using that word around your straight friends, because that may give them the erroneous impression that they are also free to do so.

Which, as I said, is literally never true.
In general, I have found a policy of under no circumstances whatsoever using any kind of slur against a group of people to which I do not myself belong has served me well. Having lightning-bright lines around such words offers helpful clarity.

This would solve the problem of my constantly misplacing my keys, and I am pissed as hell that apparently my Moderna vaccine didn't take the right way or something.
"Gives you superpowers" is right up there with "taco trucks on every corner" on my list of totally fantastic outcomes that some people inexplicably consider a bad thing.
Do you have any idea how many headaches we could avoid here at the office with connecting to our medical record system if we were all our own personal hotspots?

*sigh*

Maybe the booster.

Since a couple of people have asked, here is my general approach:

1) making it clear from the start that I am not trying to change their mind or make them feel pressured, but to hear what their concerns are so they might feel comfortable considering for the future
2) addressing specific concerns (vaccine seems so new, can’t miss work for side effects, concerns about misinfo they’ve heard, etc) respectfully

3) making a point of saying their own health is important to me, not just because they happen to be a patient’s parent
4) telling them that providing this information is an important part of my job, and that I’m glad to spend as much time as they need to discuss everything that makes them worried about getting vaccinated

I have missed it here so much. Image
Did I cry when they played “Say Something”?

No. Barely.
I’m not even mad that the only Dua Lipa they’ve played is “We’re Good.”

This is absolutely a real medical problem, which I learned about from the book of medical information I read for a class in my school where I learned medicine, and the medicine teacher 100% taught me about when uteruses just get rejected like that.
Those of you with testicles are advised to hold onto them firmly for 72 hours after each dose of Covid vaccine, to lower the risk they will explode spontaneously.
You can always tell the rejected uteruses at TJ Maxx, because the tag has been snipped.
