straight people will never understand how therapeutic it is to hear the words āher girlfriendā or āhis boyfriendā or how I ascend to heaven when I hear āher wifeā and āhis husbandā
Female customer: āI donāt have a rewards card but my partner might.ā
Me, ears perking up: āGreat! Can I have their name?ā
Customer: āItās Stephanie ____ā
Me: stupidly wide smile and faint twinkle in eyes because holy crap Iām not alone

These two women came up to my register with their twins and they called each other honey and their kids called them both Mom and my soul ascended to the heavens i was so happy
When I worked as a contractor I knocked on a heavily pregnant womanās door and she said sheād āhave to talk to the missusā in a heeeeavy outback accent and I actually forgot how to speak for a second and had to explain that Iām not homophobic Iām just super gay and hearing her say that launched my souls directly to nirvana

My soul when I see Queer people visibly and openly living their best Queer lives:
Just as you found this post, may you find money flowing effortlessly into your life from henceforward.
Blessed are you who read this. Manifest the receiving an abundance of money now. As the universe has been good to you, be good to another. Bless a friend and bless a stranger.
My favorite is the fidget spinner space station. It almost feels like someone designed it first and then fidget spinners came out and now everyone laughs at itā¦ instead of the other way around.
okay you know that scan/photo of a teen girlās diary entry that goes like āwore yellow dress today. chris keeps trying to talk to me even though he KNOWS iām not interested! ugh! man landed on moon.ā anyway thatās the mood
Purim: They tried to kill us, we survived. Letās tell the story, wear silly costumes, and get wasted. (Optional: have a carnival or a play!)
Passover: They enslaved us, God freed us. Remember this via a big ceremony/feast and then donāt eat bread for a week. This is a big one; youāre going to have to clean your house and host all your relatives.
Tu B'Shevat: Itās Earth Day, letās eat some fruit.
Simchas Torah: We read the entire Torah every year, and we got to the end! Letās have a dance party and then start all over again!
Tisha B'Av: They destroyed our temples. That sucked.
Rosh HaShanah: Happy New Year! Itās time to ask (and grant) forgiveness for the wrongs done in the past year, pledge to do better, and wish for a sweet new year. And go to synagogue for HOURS.
Yom Kippur: Rosh HaShanahās somber counterpart. God decides on this day your fate for the next year. Repent your sins, hope for forgiveness, and fast. (And go to synagogue for HOURS.)
Yom HaShoah: Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Sukkot: Harvest festival! Sleep in a hut under the stars.
Shemini Atzeret: Man, I donāt even know?
Shavuot: God gave us the Torah! That was pretty nice of him.
Chanukah: They busted up our temple and tried to forcibly convert us. We responded with guerilla warfare. Letās eat some fried food. Candles!

So basically the entire Jewish holiday calendar is giving the middle finger to death and high-fiving, with or without various combinations of prayer and foods.
Favorite f/f, wlw, femslash ships [14/??]Ā Jane and Maura - Rizzoli and Isles
Itās too emotional for me to say goodbye to you at the airport.Ā
I know. [holds up ticket]
Whatās that?
You used your miles and bought me a ticket to Paris, thank you.
Youāre coming to Paris?
Yes.
This is not how I pictured the next chapter starting.
Well, maybe thatās the beauty of it.
1. This might sound grim, but Hoyt attacking them in prison. That was the episode that made it click for me. Hoyt following his M.O. (hurting the wife and making theĀ āhusbandā watch before he killed them) wasnāt subtle at all and seeing Jane go completely feral to defend her girlfriend Maura really did it for me. That episode did set a precedent for absolutely no emotional aftermath by having them attend that god-awful horse-themed birthday party, though.Ā
2. The wedding fantasies talk. LOOK, if any viewer had been living in denial up until this scene, this surely couldnāt have made it more obvious. They were, and I canāt stress this enough, lying on a mattress together. Jane was wearing that tank top. They were having wine. Sasha had a cold, so Mauraās voice was particularly low. And then they were talking about their DREAM WEDDINGS in such an intimate tone. By the time Jane turned around to face Maura I couldnāt breathe anymore. The moment I punched the wall was when Maura, referring to Janeās hypothetical wedding, askedĀ āCan I come?ā. FUCK! ME! Ignoring all innuendo that could be drawn from that line alone, what do you meanĀ ācan I comeā???????????? YOUāD THE OTHER BRIDE, YOU IDIOT
3. The episode where they make up after Jane shot Doyle. It hurt to see them hurting, ngl, but the whole bitchy, 3rd-grade feud, atmosphere of that episode amuses me. AND THEN THEY ALMOST DIE. That shit was so intense and even though you knew they wouldnāt kill off any of their leads, I was still on the edge of my seat. Jane protecting Maura when leaving the car while it was being shot at? Nice. Her propping Maura up by the butt? Nicer. Them hiding in the woods, Maura telling Jane to take her shirt off and Jane having to perform SURGERY on Mauraās leg with a SHARD OF GORILLA GLASS?? Poetic cinema. Maura saving them with her drowsy morse code? Amazing.Them fully making up later on and Jane nuzzling into Mauraās neck? I cried a little. I realize this is several moments, but what can I say? Iām a rule breaker (just gave myself a giggle with that LIE).
4. The I Kissed a Girl episode. Do you realize this ICONIC episode was the 6th episode of the FIRST season?? The queerbaiting got more ridiculous as the show went on, but they knew what they were doing from the start and we fell for it like the representation-starved women we are and you know what, Iād probably still fall for it today because Iām WEAK. That episode was literally about a lesbian bar murder. We had Jane and Maura discussing lesbianism and what kind of women theyād like; Them falling asleep in bed together; Jane going onĀ āāāfakeāāā dates with women; Jane being kissed on the neck by a woman and going to Maura for her to swab it (!); Maura telling Jane about the health benefits of sex. I mean. That was the full gay package.
5. I like tommy a lot, but I love you was how I lost all ability to produce coherent thoughts for HOURS. Even to me, who thinks itās totally fine to sayĀ āI love youā to friends, that was a tad much if youād die on theĀ ātheyāre just best friend foreverā hill. Telling your friends you love them is awesome. Doing so when youāre trying to establish youāre not romantically interested in someone else is ROMANTIC and you can fight me. In conclusion, they were gay and TNT, Janet Tamaro, Jan Nash and Angie Harmon owe me financial compensation for my troubles. Not Sasha, sheās an angel.
