(The brief for this entry is as follows: It can be a coming out letter or a letter regarding how you hate their homophobia or whatnot. You don’t have to send it.) Dear Dad, I’m bisexual, I have been since, well, I don’t know when but I’ve known it since I was thirteen or fourteen … Read More
Probably I’m supposed to pick something universal but this picture of Lancaster Pride makes me incredibly happy. It’s me the year that I customised some LURPS shirts to be gay. Also pictured Precious Stone, No Nickname and Essex Lass. I was so happy that Lancaster finally had a Pride and could not stop smiling. I … Read More
Ok, so after yesterday I felt kind of bad about enjoying the memes, because I’m not viewing five people (yes, I looked it up) who are trapped in a truly awful situation as being people. Well today I’m feeling even worse because I absolutely am realising that at least one is a person I can … Read More

I hate the Rainbow Washing that corporate entities with problematic records on queer employment try to do by sending straight people posing as allies to Pride parades. Good gods the … Read More
Being in the closet is one of those things that some people have to be, I hate it. But growing up I was always very aware that my opening my mouth reflected on other people. Well, by other people I mean my parents, my little sister. It may surprise you, dear readers, to learn that … Read More
I suspect this prompt was written on the understanding that religion means one of the main six, and probably one of the Abrahamic ones. I’m a Wiccan though, and there’s a mainstream cultural understanding that Paganism is free and easy when it comes to gender and sexuality… And then there’s Wicca. My religion was created … Read More
