Phoenix BorealisI love it for myself even though sometimes it's hard for me to claim it because my experience of it is so subtle. I wouldn't use it for someone else unless I know they use it for themselves, because I know that for many people it was never reclaimed and sometimes still hurts.
I think it's reclamation is beautiful and should keep happening.
gatorade should be thicker@Phoenix_Borealis @delve yeah this is my opinion. i love to describe myself as that and occasionally ill say it to cover the WHOLE of 2slgbtqia but i wont refer to a specific person as that, and ill stop using it as a descriptor if someone is uncomfortable (not for myself but id cut back on stating that around them)
