I finally got around to seeing “I Saw The TV Glow”, and it definitely lived up to the hype.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
Maybe this is a lib/naive take, but I love when people wear a rainbow wristband or pin or whatever. It’s a nice assurance that they (probably) won’t be weird.
I think it’s part of the reason I like painting my nails other than the main one being it makes me happy. It does make me weird to some people and cool to others (one of my classmates visibly widen his eyes when he saw me painting them). I still present as really masc mostly with how my body is and my clothes and I can be terrifying looking but this idk seems to put people at ease.
I think such symbolism is important for making people feel more comfortable existing. Especially for children and adolescents who may feel alone IRL in places that are less accepting. Personally, I keep a little pride thing in my classroom. Have had it there for a couple years now and not had a single person say a thing about it.
I don’t think it’s lib to feel that way. It’s basically a way to signal that you don’t actively hate queer and trans people, which is nice to know when engaging with someone.
