Opening a booth in my town's Pride Festival. Me and a few others are making jewelry, art, fights, and so many other things! Here's a handful of bracelets I made to sell! #gaypride #iowacitypride #lgbt #pride #jewelry

Screenshot of threads dot net with a picture of Lila and the text: "I've had at least two people tell me that they haven't felt like they have a place in queer spaces, despite being bi or pansexual, because they were cis-het passing and didn't feel like they had "suffered enough" This breaks my heart. Pride is not about suffering, it is about QueerJoy and we need to welcome all QueerCommunity, especially, it seems, in Iowa City, we gotta do better, we gotta stop gatekeeping queerness -A visibly queer person who has suffered for her queermess" I love you, *all* the queers

Sorry for the threads dot net screenshot, but I couldn't think of a way to say this with any less characters. Text in the alt text 😘

Attending the local Pride parade with my NB kid was surprisingly moving. It’s lovely to see a community turn out to support each other, to celebrate their diversity, and to advocate such positive messages. #IowaCityPride
