Destroy the idea that you have to be constantly working or grinding in order to be successful. Embrace the concept that rest, recovery, and reflection are essential parts of the progress towards a successful and ultimately happy life.

In honor of Pride Month I’d like to impart my learned wisdom onto you:
Whenever anyone goes “Why isn’t there a straight pride parade?” instead of trying to explain and justify your oppression to them and emotionally draining yourself to try and convince them, just politely say “Well if you feel there’s a community need for one you should start one. Gay pride parades started as a result of organized activism and you can implore your community to organize and do the same.”
This will straight up (pun intended) shut them up because 99.9% of the time they full well know there’s no need for one and they don’t want to do unnecessary work. So they either have to just end the conversation, or admit they don’t actually think it’s important enough to be worth organizing, which effectively wins the convo.
And of course if you hit a lucky jackpot .1% who somehow takes up the suggestion, it will still have ended the convo, and they will look like a fucking fool and their shitty facebook group will probably end up being a meme or something.
Adding this addition on:
I know there’a straight pride movements that’re dangerous and hateful but I’m also hoping my gay followers reading this aren’t having chill dinner table conversations about pride parades with those ppl on the regular. Hence why this post encourages being lighthearted on the subject.
If the other person is a violent bigot and brings up this topic please just. Change the subject for your own safety and avoid that person aw much as possible.
