and maybe i am a little bit in love with all of my friends. how could i not be when they place their whole heart in my hands and trust me to carry it safely home? lazy days spent in comfortable silence, tearful nights spent giving each other a reason to live. the exhilaration of learning your little quirks melting into a future where i know you better than the lines on my open palms. mutual understanding to be forever gentle with one another. inside jokes that follow me long after you've gone, reminding me to slow down and laugh a little more. your eyes are the lens through which i can see the world with love. your embrace is the shelter under which i find strength to continue on.
This blog is specifically for soft, kind, loving girls who also fill with unspeakable rage and would set the world on fire
ok what’s your florence + the machine song. mine is rabbit heart (raise it up)<3
every time I see LGBTQ discourse I think about that post that said masc cis lesbians get kicked out of bathrooms as cruelly as trans people do so why the fuck are some lesbians transphobic , and I think about how homophobes won’t check for your sexuality before calling us slurs and I think about how my local dyke March considers anyone who identifies as a dyke a dyke because fuck rainbow capitalism we are here to fight for our lives and I think about how my best friends are bisexual and I think about how lesbians have been loving each other in ways that the gender binary has never been able to understand(and never will) and I think about that post that says the worst thing the right did was convince queer people other queer people were the enemy
It’s pride month, and it’s time to remind everyone that theres some people that can’t celebrate that. There’s some of us that are scared, that have to watch what we say, that have to hide. So I just want to say to those of us that don’t have somewhere they can be themselves, I love you. If you’re closeted for any reason, I love you. If you’re in a homophobic or transphobic home that you can’t get out of for whatever reason, whether it be you’re too young or you don’t have a license or anything else- I love you. If you’re in a city or a state that’s becoming more and more hostile to us, I love you. If you don’t feel safe, I’m sorry, I know what it’s like, and I love you. You’ll get out of there eventually, I promise.
The world is a shitty, shitty place right now and some of us are really suffering and so I’m holding your hand across space and time and telling you it will be okay and I love you I love you I love you I love you
you may notice i use the phrase "my beloved" frequently. this is because i am in love with the world and everything in it. hope this clears things up <3

Reblog to give a trans girl a really cool sword
Conservatives yap and yap all the time about how kids don’t understand “woke” culture, but today the school age kids at the daycare had a field trip to a park and saw a really weird swing, and one immediately said “that’s for people with disabilities.” And the others were like, “Oh, people with disabilities, yeah that makes sense.” Like, the whole, clunky, politically correct phrase. These are kids who spend most of their time on tablets and don’t like using five words when three words would do, and they said that phrase like it was natural to them.
Sometimes my kids will be making up characters and write pronouns on their pages. One day a girl turned to me and said “This character is they/them.” They don’t think of it as a foreign concept - different genders are just as new a concept to them as all the other stuff they’re learning at this age, and like all that stuff, they regard it not as something to fight about, but just another facet of the world to learn, understand, and incorporate into the stories they create.
The kids handle learning these things just fine. It’s the adults who are moaning pissbabies about it.
