I dated someone recently who showed me what it was really like to fight for queer lives in the south and Appalachia with every drop of their energy. Queer life in the South isn't a lost cause. It's an underserved, underresourced community, abandoned even by its peers.https://twitter.com/elamin88/status/1024467331311910912 …

Red state-blue state is a bunch of bullshit.

@hootbot was the first one to teach me about this. She's a born-and-raised Virginian, and I'm just a no-good Northerner. Charlottesville fancies itself a liberal bubble, and it's not, but she taught me how to be both queer and brave.Show this thread

Not just red/blue states, but even nat'l borders. When I was living in Virginia, someone flew in from NZ to provide support when I needed it. When it came time to escape from my abusive brother, I got support drove in from Montana, NY, and Kentucky. Queer fam knows no borders!
