@aral Staying inside, because - and this relates to the billionaires and the capitalism and all that - the weather is completely fucked.

There's been a lot lately about companies either miserably backing down and removing Pride stuff, or merely having the empty Love Is Probably Good, Yeah platitudes.

And I remembered this from last year:
https://www.thepinknews.com/2022/08/07/wickes-brighton-pride-float-trans-rights-diy/

Anyway I just bought a storage thing for the garden, and I specifically bought it from Wickes because of this, even though it wasn't the cheapest (still a very reasonable price, mind you, Wickes aren't ripping anyone off). It's not often a company properly gets it right and I am happy to back them.

@aral There's something I saw on Twitter once - can't remember who from, but it stuck with me. It was something like:

White is apolitical, black is political
Straight is apolitical, queer is political
Cis is apolitical, trans is political

and so on. Only if you're in a privileged group can you say that your existence is apolitical. Everyone outside the privileged groups has no choice.
