I-??????? I can't really get that my brain hurts

Grammatically speaking, Pronouns are a game we play with society.

A crew of sailors discuss their ship. "her mast is strong but the sails need changin. She's a beaut though."

I see a fancy rock on my hike. I pick it up, turn to my friend and say "Look at him, he's so handsome"

A group of our sparkling Gay gentlemen meet up for a night out. "Girl, Daniel's serving up looks tonight. Queen! She's stunning love. She's killin it."

My neighbor needs a cup of sugar, I take some to them.

My lesbian friend wants to introduce me to her fellow female partner. "There's Star, he's wearing the blue jacket. Let's catch up with him"

What's real is how respect for one another makes us feel. He/him lesbians deserve your respect.

Pronouns are also more related to gender presentation than gender itself for some people!

Lesbians calling themselves "fathers", "husbands", "boyfriends", "handsome", and other words associated with men are a part of their gender presentation as masculine women as well as their reclamation of the idea that "lesbians just want to be men". He/Him pronouns is just a part of that!

Friendly reminder that if you shake hands with a guy you shouldn’t eat or touch your face until you’ve washed your hands.

this isnt some Feminist Joke, btw, they basically teach this in food safety since so many guys think its fine to not wash their hands after they’ve touched their dick

Love local coffee shops. your “refugees are welcome here” sign goes really well with the one that says “bathrooms are for paying customers only”

You’ve clearly never had to deal with people doing hard drugs in the grocery store bathroom and it shows.

Bro I literally manage a coffee shop with an open restroom policy, and I prioritize enforcing that policy and making sure everyone feels comfortable. I’ve dealt with everything from the easy end of the spectrum (people quietly doing hard drugs) to a lady ripping all her hair out and setting it on fire in the sink. I clean up after this stuff day after day and I still feel VERY strongly about the fact that human beings should be allowed the basic decency of a place to poop. Yes, I very frequently end up having to kick someone out of the bathroom for doing drugs, and when I do I always offer them a cup of water on their way out. Because they’re a person and I give a shit…

It’s safer for people to do drugs in (clean) public restrooms than it is for them to do it on the street.

It’s also ableist to deny someone the use of a bathroom. There are countless gastrointestinal disorders that cause bathroom urgency and potential incontinence. There are other conditions, like pregnancy, that necessitate quick and easy access to restrooms.

also what makes you think a paying customer wouldnt misuse the toilets in some way, and a person using it without buying something would?

contrary to popular beliefs people with money do drugs, and homeless people need the toilet just like the rest of us

STOP! are you operating on an arbitrary set of terms and rules known only to you? have you created an ultimatum or specific if/then scenario for someone else without communicating it to them? have you considered making a decision and calculated all the consequences and potential reactions to those consequences and consequences for those reactions before you actually made the decision? it may be time to say some words out loud to another person!

gay people in my head they are all kissing in there

I think like, while Lil Nas X is tearing apart a lot of troll responses he’s getting on twitter for laughs on purpose, I also definitely think we should be careful about how we frame that, how we repost that, and whether that’s the thing we focus on here, because the sheer volume and maliciousness of the harassment (from the likes of Fox News and establishments such as that) he’s receiving isn’t without emotional consequences. he even stated that much:

[ID: tweet by Lil Nas X stating: “i’ll be honest all this backlash is putting an emotional toll on me. i try to cover it with humour but it’s getting hard. my anxiety is higher than ever and stream call me by your name on all platforms now!” /end ID]

like we should def appreciate his creativity & his incredible sense of humour in the face of all this, but I think we shouldn’t forget the extreme severity of the backlash and hatred in response to a bold and groundbreaking piece of black gay art, that showcases black gay sexuality in a way that is almost never seen, certainly by not such a famous musician, and not erase the fact that the amount of hate he’s getting here is both unjust, racially-motivated, and almost definitely tremendously painful and upsetting? or else we risk reducing black performers and artists to mere objects of entertainment and fail to see black performers & artists as people, human beings.

oh how i wish i could see all members of one direction smushed together on one couch again

*therapist voice* you are stupid and gay
