I do a lot of photography and I share it on my Pixelfed when I can.

It’s SFW.

  • I live in a fairly red area, I’m used to having a target on my back for being me. In fact the first week I had the flags on my cars I had multiple people tailgating me while I was on the freeway (so close that it looked like they were in my backseat), laying on their horns at stoplights, screaming out of their windows, brake checking me, etc.

    Do it afraid, be brave. Have the hope that your actions will help others and work for that better tomorrow where nobody has to be afraid.

    My city is rolling out flock cameras in my area to a massive amount of push back already, and I guess you could say that the more us average folk get wrongfully caught in their nets the more public push back they get.





  • So much this

    Lately I haven’t been seeing enough pride flags locally (I presume) because of all the crap going on against us queer folk, so this year I’ve decked my cars out in pride flags. They’re like a goddamned parade float everywhere I go.

    I’ve got a 3ftx5ft pride flag on the bag of my CRV along with 2 11inx17in flags rolled in the back windows, and on my RIO I’ve got just 2 11inx17in flags in the back windows.

    People point, people have made comments at stop lights and stores, some supportive and some not so much but I REFUSE to go quietly into that good night. My presence in known, my presence is felt, and by god I’m gonna ensure that others in the community who are too afraid to speak up know that they aren’t alone.

    What’s the power of a flag? It’s something to unite people under, it brings people together, it tells people as far as the eye can see that there is a community there for them.

    You aren’t alone. Don’t live in fear of being yourself. Be you, in the open, and you’ll realize that you aren’t as alone as you feared.
