"Bear with me" I say, gesturing behind me to an actual bear

Anybody have any good queer crime/mystery books that AREN'T just smut with a little plot sprinkled in??? My wife is agonizingly searching and nothing is coming up :(

This is a good post because it could mean “I’m gay for everybody” or “I make everyone gay” and the real meaning is both

So, I guess it's time for me to request that people please CW Christmas stuff, because as a retail/service industry worker, seeing posts about that compounds existing stress in my life and kinda makes me not want to be here.

I'm not a "Grinch" or a "Scrooge" I'm just stressed the fuck out around this time of year and it'd be nice if folks would respect that. Thank you.

On trans bodies + 

I love trans bodies and I really love being a part of a community that celebrates trans bodies.

This is really the only place where I can find the kind of transgressive joy that comes from posting a nude and instead of being met with awkwardness, revulsion, fetishization or silence, I am met by warmth, love, appreciation and kindness.

And I get to see that experience repeated when people post their nudes again and again and again.

Don’t ever forget how powerful that is.

The secret goal of Mastodon is to create a majority-anarchist environment such that any individual who joins will be exposed to those ideas to the extent that they're properly explained and normalized to them, then occasionally bring in new batches of people with enough time in between for the old batch to be subsumed into the antiauthoritarian mindset before the new batch arrives

It's all part of our Cultural Anarchist agenda, you see
