Gay wrath month
I hope all of you had a great lgbtq+ fest month!
These aren’t... well-connected thoughts but I’ve been mentally chewing on the ideas of transgression and disruption lately. We live in a culture that hounds us to conform, to seek praise and acceptance at all times through the apps we’ve seamlessly integrated into our personalities and daily lives. We have a generation of young queer people who aren’t even aware they’re parroting hateful ideas meant to divide the LGBT community and make us all easier targets. Hell, some of them might even believe the t/erf bullshit they’ve been fed. We have a monster in Florida spearheading a movement to not only to legalize state kidnapping of children whose parents don’t conform to conservative ideaology, but empower the state to interfere in all corners of business and personal life We have a former president deemed guilty of sexual assault by a jury and yet his followers still rally around him and call the chick he assaulted ugly and claiming she deserved it We have writers on strike trying to wrest some modicum of direct over their jobs, so they aren’t iced out by gig work and AI bots, while far FAR too many people whine about it because ‘weh
Now That Self-acceptance Is Over, We Should Make LGBTQ Wrath Month an Actual Thing
Pride is one of Catholicism’s “Seven Deadly Sins” (not to be confused with the “Seven Deadly Gay Sins”). So it makes perception that LGBTQ Event Month should be followed by LGBTQ Wrath Month.
Lots of folks make this joke. But Anthony Oliveira — a Toronto-based writer and university professor who recently wrote an article about LGBTQ Wrath Month for The Washington Post — thinks it’s a worthwhile idea.
After all, lgbtq+ people have taken the sin of Pride and turned it into a virtue. Now we have pride in ourselves despite constantly being told to feel shame. So why not carry out the same with our anger now that we’re constantly being told to appreciate how fine we have it?
LGBTQ Wrath Month is an antidote to Pride Month’s corporatism and sloganeering
While corporations and fair-weather allies have increasingly united the inclusive Celebration Month love-fest, Oliveira thinks it’s effortless to slap rainbow colors on for a month and repeat empty slogans like “Love is love.” It’s much harder to sponsor displays of lgbtq+ anger that admit that no, our love isn’t “just like everybody else’s.”

Anyway, let’s celebrate Same-sex attracted Wrath month by talking about our favorite WoW Lgbtq+ couples. We hold so many more as of late.
Windsage Dawa and Tracker Narman are my favorites. I loved their questline in which we move through the Maruuk proposal traditions. Also the place their propose to each other is so beautiful. Same place that Thomas Shiny meets us at because of the view.
So who are your favorite same-sex attracted characters and/or couples? NPCs or your OCs!
