this is mean so dont rb but theres a poll going around about lgbt vs queer and everyones like "i cant remember the order of the acronym" and i just.

1. any order is fine. it doesnt actually matter. some spaces still say glbt, i think tlgb is nice to recenter trans ppl, etc. its fine

2. i think if you really cant remember the baseline "lgbt" then your baby gay is showing. say it a few more times itll stick***

***i am obviously meaning when speaking broadly. ofc w dyslexia / what-have-you things can Happen, but we dont make that argument with like, any other commonly used acronym, so. here we are

I’m not gonna say “queer isn’t a slur” anymore, I’m switching to “queer is as much of a slur as gay is”.

Cause of course queer has been used as an insult— and worse. Of course it has. So has gay. So has homosexual. So has literally every word we use to describe ourselves, whether or not we invented or reclaimed it. And they’ll continue to be used as insults, and worse, by people who find our existence insulting. But guess what?

We’re still here. We’re still queer.

Get used to it.

The absolutely most boring and annoying thing is when queer people say "this is queer (culture)" and straight white cis people feel the need to chime in and make it about themselves under the shallow farce of equality and togetherness and allying

i wish i could personally thank the several people who defended and protected me at north park blocks, where the trans pride parade was lining up to march, when i grabbed the cord of a megaphone that was being used by radical christan homophobes who were telling all of us to die, convert or burn in hell. i couldn't stand to let them continue to harass my local tlgb+ peoples, and those who rushed in when i was grabbed could not stand to see them harass me, and even if we came home tonight with bruises and scrapes from the altercation, i'm thankful for their strength, of body, of mind, of heart, to have done the right thing, not by defending me, but having defended our entire movement, history and community. we will not be spoken over. we will not be silenced. we will defend our spaces, our events, our communities, our people, ourselves. tl;dr if you are spewing ugly, hateful, bigoted rhetoric in my face, at my people, in my city, then Free Speech™ might prevent the cops from taking away your megaphone, but that doesn't mean it's gonna prevent me from blowing fart noises while i break your hate speech shooter. 💋🌈💖

“Named after the historic Compton's Cafeteria riots in 1966 (the first known incident of collective LGBT resistance to police harassment in U.S. history), The Compton's TLGB District will encompass six blocks in the southeastern Tenderloin and will cross over Market Street to include two blocks of 6th Street. The intersection of Compton's Cafeteria Way and Vikki Mar Lane (previously portions of Turk and Taylor Streets) will be a hub of services and economic opportunities for trans and gender-nonconforming communities, as well as a place to honor the community's history.

"The lower Tenderloin is one of the most important neighborhood in America for transgender history, culture, and civil rights," said Supervisor Jane Kim, who represents the Tenderloin. "By creating the Compton's TLGB District we are honoring this vibrant community built by transgender people, and are sending a message to the world that trans people are welcome here." 

"San Francisco needs to do everything it can to stand our ground and be a place of sanctuary, for transgender people, and specifically trans women of color. Hopefully the Compton's TLGB District will be the start of a national movement to protect these communities and their history."

WHAT?!?! AMAZING!

APPROPRIATE RESPONSE UPON READING THIS NEWS:

[ivycrowned]

took the daemon quiz for Salem and got this! Which is funny because I’d been having that animal form as a vibe

Mustelid

Your daemon would take the form of a mustelid! Those who have weasel daemons are sneaky and inquisitive people who don't take no for an answer when there's something they want. They aren't afraid of breaking rules to get to where they want and are naturally subtle and cheeky individuals.

In my opinion it should be ‘TLGB’. Not just because Trans individuals made the first stand during the stonewall riots and parades thereafter, but also so we can say “Telegub”

[working-class-wizard]

Can someone explain to me why I shouldn't immediately be skeptical of a group that goes by GLBT instead of LGBT?

[rottenczar]

what if we changed the acronym to tlgb just to piss off terfs/gc assholes?
