    No…didn’t it just fucking finish?

    Fully expect London to look like it’s been conquered yet again.

    No, no, there's enough Pride months to cover the whole year multiple times, and woe be you if you celebrate one without the others.

    We need a bingo card for Pride.

    Who has “ABDL”? What about “Public puppy play involving a child”? Bingo!

    How about this?

    That’s great, but I don’t think there will be riots or trans shooters.

    Maybe have “Cops with rainbow flag pins” and “BLM signs” instead.

    Probably not, haha. They've just been talking about unhinged shit like that recently due to the new child safeguarding laws, so I figured why not.

    I decided to make two cards, the first focusing more on the parades and in-person events, the second for corporate, political, and Twitter nonsense. I went with the more general Rainbow cops and BLM.

    Oh, yeah, Gay alcohol may not be super self explanatory. I'm referring to the fact that a lot of Pride events are sponsored by alcohol companies, like Absolut.

    Any true Patriot would swell with pride at the sight of the America flag flying proudly over the street.

    Just looking at that was enough to play the Imperial March in my head. Darth Gaydar would be pleased.

    I have a feeling it wouldn’t look quite so authoritarian if had just been a bunch of rainbow flags, but they went with the ugliest flag of them all, that just happens to form a swastika

    Last time it came around I used the opportunity to unsubscribe from every corporate E-mail and social media post I got that was pride monthing.

    It's nice, quieted down a lot and get way less pointless advertisements now.

    I think you mean Pride Season.

    I'm looking forward to laughing at the corporate attempts to woo the gays. Usually some funny shit is made.

    Last time round some airline did this gem.

    Was pretty funny.

    As a 22 year old Black lesbian dwarf I'm proud to be visible.

    Okay, but can you put your old chap away, you’re scaring the pigeons.

    I just report for hate speech.

    How is a cis lesbian possible? I do not understand their terminology very well but a cis lesbian seems impossible.

    [–]Alienhunter糞大名 6 insightful - 3 fun6 insightful - 2 fun7 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

    A "cis lesbian" is a female lesbian.

    As opposed to a male lesbian.

    [–]chottohen 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    The terminology boggles my mind, for example, a male lesbian.

    To be really inclusive, one of those women pictured should have an Adam's apple and 5 o'clock shadow.
