Yes, it was Nature Pride Fest.

I wish my existence could just be me existing.

Instead, I have to advocate for my existence in front of people who look down on me and have to rely on the understanding and kindness of strangers and the zeitgeist to make me be safe.

I'm barely allowed to marry who I love, and many people still reject "marriage" as a concept for people like me. I was once chased by someone with a knife for holding a loved one's hand.

People fought tooth and nail for us to be recognized. Many are still forced to do so. Sure, take the fucking rainbow. Take it for granted, just like you do with everything else.

Oh no, someone who is apathetic (at best) towards gay people is bothered. Anyways...

Likewise. Basically can't see anything rainbow like anywhere without immediately assuming it has something to do with gay.

And everyone else assumes this too, so one can't use a rainbow for something anymore either without everyone else assuming you're making a statement.

Well, they can't. And everytime you complain we make them gayer.

Yeah, Manzat really ruined the rainbow. Made it all about cities.

And in Burma there's that child eating thing.

And in Albania the whole trans folk tradition from 6 centuries ago. With the Catholic saint of St. Anne.

Why can't we go back to pre-culture days when Humans didn't use any symbolism, or meaning, or anything.

Rainbows have never "just been rainbows".

They're maps to leprechaun gold!
