I'm still kind of upset we didn't get a Pokemon Snap Wii/Wii U/3DS.

I'm 1000% okay with Kukui becoming the new god emperor of gay Pokemon fans.

....awkward. I think they might have always been there, but I neglected to look at the last couple of images because I was too focused on reading the article...oops. The most explicit ones I saw were the one that teases it by @jasdavi and the bulges. My bad. I actually didn't notice them. Call me a Hermione and take away my gay card, I suppose.
I'll edit my original post so I don't get people in trouble. Thanks for letting me know.

Why did they have to give him a ring, though
Well, I can't say I'm surprised. The professors have been getting hotter since Juniper. I just didn't expect thirst on this level. Hopefully this region is full of water types cause we'll need them all.

Because he's married to your dad. Finally, the mystery of the missing fathers in Pokémon will be solved.
I like how I made plans for today, tomorrow, and Saturday, and none of them end up working out. lol. Just great.
TWO guys flaked out on me today. One was going to come over and then didn't, so I invited another one, and then he didn't either. If they message me another time asking to hook up I'm gonna tell them they're not getting this dick and that they lost their shot.

Oh.
Yup. Teased me and teased me and I was SO ready and then at the last minute he's like oh shit can we do this another day?
Rage. No, we're not gonna do this another day. You can't just turn me on and then leave. I'm not a hallway lightbulb.

Anyway I'm glad I found the light that is passionate bf sex in the end...

The Director of the ACLU's Georgia chapter, Maya Dillard Smith, has resigned from her position due to her disagreement with how the ACLU has handled its efforts regarding trans rights. I can't find a copy of her statement, but this article that was cited in another article I read posted some excerpts. I have collected everything the article attributed to her below:
I wish I could read the full statement, but I'm going to to ahead and comment on what I've been able to find. This is potentially poor judgment on my part, and I will edit/apologize if a full statement releases that changes my thoughts considerably (which are rather brief compared to my larger point):
It sounds like she realizes she has some education she needs to do, and honestly, it sounds like stepping down is the right move if the organization as a whole is not acting in a way she agrees with. I think she handled the situation well. All of that said...
Her story about the bathroom really demonstrates that people need to get educated on trans identities ASAP. What she is saying about her children and her peers sounds to me like, "We were uncomfortable because we didn't know." Trans people are not going to disappear (same with LGB+), so the refusal of public schools in some (all? I don't know) states to educate rising generations about these identities is frustrating. And perhaps some would argue that this should not be part of the school curriculum and that parents should handle this, to which I say "fine," but I think parents should actually handle it then. Her story reminds me of when people were freaking out and getting angry about same-sex couples being on TV or magazine covers—I remember the The New Yorker issue that had Bert and Ernie with the Supreme Court decision being very controversial—because "now I have to explain to my kids what that is."
Yes, parents, yes you do. You don't have to talk about sex if you think they're too young, you don't have to talk about anything you don't want to, but if your kids have been in such a heteronormative, gendered bubble that they have no idea that LGBT people exist, then you owe your child this conversation. Sticking your head in the sand and thinking, "Well, my child doesn't need to hear about that because they aren't going to be gay or trans" doesn't mean they won't be. All that thinking does is potentially hurt that child if they don't understand why their brain and body are the way they are and end up trying to figure out ways to hide, hurt, or destroy that aspect of themselves until someone else teaches them about it. Don't risk making your children taboo.
Okay, I'm done ranting.

I'm rewatching Community and Donald Glover is so hot
I would but there is no one to go with. It would be nice to grab some drinks and talk shit by the beach.
If no one wants to, I'll go by myself
I guess I could go under a tree and read something. Still we shall see when I'll go. Not sure if tomorrow Im going to Sams Club with the family or do errands. -_-
Remind me never to get into FB arguments about LGBT privilege on friends' feeds. Too many people living in an alternate reality where queer folks like myself are at the top of the social hierarchy, and it's the christians in their megachurches who are oppressed.
Cute girls for thread top!

I understand you're frustrated, but at the end of the day, no one is entitled to sex with anyone.
(Sorry, I was just reminded of someone saying something similar in a more nefarious context.)

Are they though? I swear, social media as devalued that word.
Hot girls, get your hot girls
Today it was my brother-in-law, who I would consider a real friend. One of the few decent Christians I can say I actually know.

That's technically family though. Also if he's saying shit like that, how can you consider him a real friend?
Anyways, time for Critrole so no more posts from me for 3-4hrs.
do they have printers??
Confusing I know, but it was someone I didn't know on my BIL's feed. Not my BIL himself.
Well I live in the UK where I'm pretty sure gay marriage is legal. My manager is based in the US though so I guess it must be legal in this state too. Come to think of it that's the third gay manager I've had so I guess the gay mafia is strong in this industry.

Yay girls, always nice to see some change in here. All the hunks get boring.

Ah, okay. I asked because I thought your post contained some surprise, so I was wondering if that was why. Same-sex marriage being legal or prohibited was a state issue until June 26th last year (it's almost the anniversary!) when a Supreme Court ruling made it legal nationwide.
Woo, ask him out on a date, Tuck! Wishing you luck.
Poor bald people, forever unhirable.

A guy from one of my college classes just asked me out on Facebook I think. He said "Hey would you want to go get drinks or something sometime?" Wasn't sure how to respond as I found it awkward to figure out how to say im not single to someone I think is cool and would hang as friends with.
My boyfriend suggested "Sure, we can hang any time! My boyfriend and I are thinking about going to some of the Gay Days events this weekend" so I went with that. Thought it was a friendly way to say I'm not single
Also it's Gay Days here in Orlando so we'll likely visit Disney and one of the pool parties and the expo. Never been to any of them before.

So, about Prince Charles being caught as gay.. why wasn't it Harry
Huh? Did something new happen or is it the regurgitated rumours from 2000andsomething?
Ugh these tabloids always make it seem that the problem is that he is gay, not that he hid it from his wife. Like guys! Being gay is not the problem here!I know it's the globe.. but the photos, man.

Heh thanks guys. He's clearly interested, and so am I. That said it'll probably have to wait till monday since he has a big family reunion this weekend.
