This is precisely the kind of Pride I would love. We FINALLY went t' #PrideNorth last year (which was ridiculous cuz it was less than a thirty-second walk from our front door), and we walked through and went straight home. I COULD NOT handle the crush of people, it was far, FAR too much.

Me wearing high top Pride Chuck Taylors with white laces. There is a watermark in the lower lefthand corner that reads, "Not for use by AI".

The right sole of my Pride Chucks, showing the rainbow colors. There is a watermark in the lower lefthand corner that reads, "Not for use by AI".

It took me longer t'relace my #PrideChucks than we spent at #PrideNorth; that event is NOT my scene. One pass through. Too many people, too much noise, can't talk, no personal space, lots of shallow bodies, too much danger of #Covid. Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope.
