Me, I’m going to go to a museum with my bf on their pride weekend and then maybe hit up some gay bars later in the night together :^)

    I always have such mixed feelings about pride.

    On one hand, I love the idea of us being queer in public, and from a USA perspective, I feel like that aspect is especially important in the current political climate.

    But on a more personal level…I’m not a white twink, I’m cis, and I’m not like…visibly queer so much? So I’ve felt a – possibly misjudged – sentiment that none of the groups at any Pride activities actually want me there, be they the party crowd, the activist crowd or the thirsty crowd.

    So to finally answer the actual question, kinda nothing. I’m not engaging with rainbow capitalism (except I did buy Thirsty Sword Lesbians, so I am still down with supporting queer creators), I’m not doing any parades, etc.
