Was reminded of this image again today:
"I don't wear [queer pride] items to tell you who's in my bed. I wear them so the family across the street knows they are safe. So the couple in the restaurant know they aren't alone. So the boy who sees me notice him looking at dresses knows I won't judge. I wear because you make them hide."
Ever since seeing this, I have been wearing progressive pride buttons on each of my jackets and coats (and a cap).
@aral
Those shoe laces are awesome.
@amalia12 Thanks, I do quite love them :) They were part of a visibility campaign run by a supermarket chain here in Ireland (https://supervalu.ie/about/news/2024/06/20/shoe-your-support).
@StephanSchulz @amalia12 I got them during a campaign here in Ireland last year* but you can find similar ones online in lots of places :)
