heheheh the vindication of reading about a cross country tour for a montreal magazine in the early 70s passing edmonton’s queer scene off as just for “swishy queens and hard drinking butches” and the collective eyeroll of edmontonian queer community completely used to this kind of perception of edmonton, paralleled with me in toronto a few years ago with the torontonians telling me that they heard that drinking is like the only thing to do here like. listen i am the boring hermit shut-in teetotaller and even i know better, lol

#go outside for once in your life please aAAAA #im begging you to go to a fringe play instead of a sports bar for once in your life #and this goes for the people i grew up with in rural ab who think of edmonton as just a place to rent a limo and drink in also #Not just the Big City Folk #also thinking about the people in my german class who were assigned to either do a tour of edmonton or make a story for class and they like #did an extremely boring review of clubbing in edmonton im just SO TIRED!!!!!!!!#if you can spend that much on alcohol there are so many other things you could do in this city ARRHGHGH #hapo reads canadian history #personal hapo #only valid toronto reaction is my coworker who read that twitter thread that mentioned edmonton not being real #and then immediately asking me wait youre from edmonton right #WHO KNOWS PAL... I MAY JUST BE A FIGMENT OF YOUR IMAGINATION #its just that the imagination of edmonton both from inside and outside desperately needs some improvement #hapo reads queer history
