HAPPY PRIDE MONTH 2024!

Today I hosted a book club as the first activity the lgbt employee resource group gets to put on. We read a third of Gender Euphoria, a collection of essays about the trans experience, and it was really cool to have a conversation Gender Stuff^TM with a bunch of folks with really different experiences.

TBH, I haven't done anything for pride this year. I keep missing events because I'm too busy. And I also feel more disappointed in myself than proud this year.

Me neither. Why conform to the specified time period when we're allowed to be prideful? It's not like women stop having history whenever it's not March.

Definitely get that! Last year I missed all the pride events after coming out though, so I wanted to do something here this year, at least. Funnily enough, I am planning on going to some pride events but they're in July and August. So maybe I'll just post about them then, if I can go, because why not!

So I was able to go to the Minneapolis pride fest! I'll post some images when I get home, but it was really fun and nice to go to a pride thing before the month was up.

Goodbye pride month I didn't do anything specifically for you or get to go to any events  but I did have a lot of really great and affirming experiences throughout the month and get told by my doctor next time I see him I can get a progesterone prescription so for next pride month I might have fat tits and really that's what it's all about

HELLO SO I'M FINALLY GOING TO POST MY PICTURES FROM THE TWIN CITIES PRIDE FESTIVAL BACK IN JUNE HERE THEY ARE




Also, writing this down:



But yeah, it was a blast! A bunch of booths and vendors and performances and I got to strut my bisexual ass around and just soak it all in. I got a bunch of nice stuff:




And this wonderful ring:



And…I also went to my first actual pride parade on the 10th, the Queer Cabaret in Austin, and I had a blast! Sure, it was very corporate and it was goddamn hot but I don’t care, I yelled my lungs out and flapped my little pride flags and it was wonderful. And there were a lot of great orgs there that aren’t corporations! And I got a bunch of swag thrown at me, including beads! It was like Mardi Gras but…well okay, it was just about as queer as Mardi Gras.

I know I may be making too big of a deal of this, but it made me really happy to go to actual pride stuff after coming out!

Toast, you look like you had a good time! The bisexual men exist book is on my to read list.

My city's pride events are the 7th of September. I feel sort of excited to go even though I was feeling pessimism in actual pride. month.
