i was already preparing. For this entire year and some of the last i've been making small but very, very important steps toward building a local queer pride committee. Queer people have been seriously isolated by the straight rural hicks who can't shut their mealy fuckin mouths, and I'm trying to build the community up and get them all together and ready to support each other.
it isn't as hard as you think. it takes some time and effort, and sometimes it's a little nervewracking, but it's a lot easier than it sounds. i used to feel guilty reading posts like this and saying "b-b-but i can't, im only one disabled goofball ;n;" but hey, fuckin look at me now. i've met people in the past year who I never would have met without stepping out and getting shit done.
And trust me: if my crippled autistic ass can do it, anyone can. and i mean that.
go out there and start building community. if it already exists, be in it. not queer? show up and be an ally. you can do it. <3
