As it’s Pride month (love all my gay/queer/trans homies and homettes) I’d like to share that we have had three separate friends of our kids, come out to us before telling their parents.

My wife responds with a motherly hug and I put the kettle on.

I’ve told all the kids that if they need adult backup when (if) they tell their parents, I’ll happily accompany them and offer sanctuary, just in case.

I may not be their parent, but I’ll pretend to be one if it makes them feel safe.

I don’t share this a lot in real-life to keep our space safe for the kids, but felt like saying it here tonight.

Forgot to say hello to everyonehere, I finally made it here today.

I was wondering where everyone from the DT went when it came back and I stumbled across a stray comment after Epicpillow said someone was impersonating them here.

Good to see all the familiar names I used to see!

Had an influencer encounter at the gym this morning. Their session lasted about 10 minutes before a staff member escorted them out.

Local council gyms don’t play that shit it seems.

A fitness influencer (or wannabe one) was recording an exercise set at the gym. The gym has very strict policies about recording equipment (forbidden without a permit). Several people complained, including a trainer who was running a class behind this person. Staff member came over, grabbed the phone, turned it off and essentially said “Let’s go” and started walking away.

Person didn’t even have a membership and were on day 3 of a free trial too.
